Anime, starting from Re:Zero (Zero - Starting Life)

"Good morning, Teacher Luo Qixi, how is your packing going? Do you need help from Lilia and me?"

Travel...luggage...!

Did everyone know they were about to be kicked out?!

Awww, please at least don't act so happy!

I've been feeling like everyone at the Greyrat mansion is so friendly and tolerant lately. Even Lady Senis, a follower of Milis, hasn't ostracized or discriminated against me, a demon. I've been feeling honored and relieved by that...

It turns out...it turns out!

Madam Senesi, are you that kind of actor?

It was the first time that I was recognized by someone I thought was awesome, and the first time that I was accepted and entertained by such a gentle family.

Why...it turned out like this...

Luo Qixi wanted to die, but she still politely and with difficulty declined:

"It's okay...it's okay. I don't have much stuff. I can pack it up in no time."

After Miss Lilia distributed the individual tableware, the Knight returned from the courtyard, sword in hand. He, usually quite frivolous, suddenly revealed a serious expression of regret upon seeing me.

"Speaking of which, Teacher Luo Qixi is moving out today, right? It's all because of that kid Gao Wen who's always messing around. I'll definitely teach him a lesson for you later."

In the end...he was killed by the executioner without authorization before he could even reach the execution ground!

At least listen to my explanation!

Luo Qixi's face turned dark, like an unlucky graduate student whose graduation thesis was rejected by the internal review before he could even enter the defense stage.

She was left with only instinct to run mechanically:

"That's not necessary. Thank you for your concern, Sir Knight."

In this way, everyone could see that Teacher Luo Qixi was in a very bad condition.

Madam Senes, who had been in a very good mood since morning, immediately came over from the kitchen and asked worriedly:

"Teacher Luo Qixi, are you feeling unwell? How about skipping class today? Eat something and I'll take you to the clinic to see if you feel better."

Luo Qixi's face turned even worse.

What? You're not letting me go to the last day of class?

Rudeus watched the entire process. He put the ball he hadn't played with much back to its place, washed his hands, and sat down at his table. After giving his worried parents a look, he looked across at the girl with blue pigtails and said in a gentle, soothing tone, "I'm not going to do that any more."

"I don't know what Mr. Luo Qixi has misunderstood, but it's definitely not what you imagined."

Hearing Rudeus' voice, Lokisi instinctively raised her voice:

"What do you know?"

Rudeus instantly shrank his head as if his blood was suppressed.

Sure enough, it’s not possible for a teacher to do that!

Damn it, if I keep living under the same roof with this guy, I'm going to miss puberty, right?!

But after escaping for a moment, Rudius decided to stand up for Gawain, at least for a short while.

When Teacher Luo Qixi first moved into his house, Rudius had no intention of getting along with this girl. After all, even if this girl looked cute, she was still an invading enemy, because she looked so conceited and dissatisfied with Gawain.

Even though Rudeus didn't have the courage to have a direct conflict with Teacher Luo Qixi, he insisted on maintaining an exclusionary attitude by not showing a good face, passing by without giving way, and not saying hello when meeting her privately.

However, none of this seemed to bother Teacher Roxy. But Rudeus wasn't a bad person after all, and even though he saw no results and wasn't sure if his will had been conveyed to the invader, he didn't increase his rejection.

Until Teacher Lokixi began to actively attack him, and even attacked Gawain.

To be honest, Rudeus didn't know whether he should fight back at first. In his opinion, he was the one who started the fight first. Even though it was more like a child's quarrel, he knew that he had the soul of an adult.

But gradually, Rudius also clearly understood that Teacher Luo Qixi was just taking her anger out on him, or even on Gawain. As a former shut-in, Rudius was very familiar with the attitude of attacking others in order to protect himself.

So, he got angry.

"You're better than me, aren't you? Better than my past life, aren't you? Why are you so cowardly?"

There are reasons for this.

"It's okay to vent your anger on me, but why do you want to vent your anger on Gawain? He's really just a child under five years old!"

There are also reasons for this.

Therefore, Rudeus had several arguments with Teacher Lokisi at home, but his parents always intervened, causing him to quickly lose the courage to resist.

"Paul and Senis were right to interfere, and their words were not wrong. I was wrong because I was a worthless NEET who entered this body without permission. They don't know my true nature, so they don't understand why I would argue with Teacher Roxy."

"But after all, Mr. Roxy and I are the same age, so we're the same age! But sometimes this girl is even more childish than a worthless NEET like me. Maybe it's because of her race, or because she has that cute anime-girl vibe, but this is the real world! Any cuteness will only make people feel troubled."

Rudeus didn't have the courage to educate Teacher Luo Qixi anymore. Moreover, he also figured it out. This was not his responsibility. He was just a passerby who happened to be standing nearby and understood all the causes and consequences.

Although I subconsciously wanted to help Teacher Roxy just like I did when I saved someone from under a runaway truck.

But Rudeus also understood that he could not help her.

Like herself, she longed for Gawain's approval, so she could only point her in the direction of stepping out of her closed room:

"Of course I know what you're thinking. Go talk to Brother Gao Wen later, and then you'll understand, Teacher Luo Qixi, you're just dwelling on your own thoughts."

Luo Qixi wanted to slam the table and yell again.

Pointing at Rudius's nose, he scolded him for being self-righteous.

But that's just imagination.

She sat there and said nothing.

I didn't eat breakfast either.

Chapter 21 Turning Point

[From the perspective of Lokixi]

Wait until Gawain takes Sylphiette by the hand and knocks on the door.

Greet everyone present politely, receive today's lunch or snacks from Mrs. Senice, and maybe exchange a few words with Mr. Paul.

He would take Rudius to meet up with the two of them, and then they would walk along the path in front of the house through the village and go to Gawain's house to say goodbye to Tianjian and the Lorzes.

Thus, a new day begins.

It has been like this for the past month.

What was different from the past was that he was carrying a suitcase and dressed exactly the same as when he arrived in this village a month ago.

Luo Qixi raised her hand to block the dazzling morning light. After adjusting for a moment, the azure sky and the swiftly passing white clouds were beautifully imprinted in her eyes.

The wind is also very good today.

It feels so happy when it blows on my body.

However, these days will end today.

Luo Qixi felt a little regretful. Wouldn't it have been better to admit her limitations from the beginning? That way, at least she could leave a good memory for everyone, instead of the future thinking of her as an incompetent and stubborn person who always lost her temper for no reason.

I really hope I can continue to enjoy this good time!

Lokixi lowered her raised hand, picked up her staff again, and followed the three children in front.

Let me end this like a grown-up.

First, visit Gao Wen's house.

Mrs. Debbie:

"Oh, is this all you have? That's fine. If you forget anything, you can always go to the Knight's house and pick it up. Please let me help you with your luggage, Mr. Roxy."

"This is the room you'll be staying in. If you think it's too far inside, you can also choose this one. This is where Lu Fei and Gawain stayed before."

"This is the kitchen, this is the dining room, and this is the cellar. To go to the toilet and bathroom, you need to go through this door. I'll give you a more detailed introduction when I come back this afternoon!"

"Today's dessert is my masterpiece, right? Please give me your comments as usual after tasting it. Thank you, Master Roxy!"

——What?

Then through the fields.

Mr. Rhodes:

"Teacher Luo Qixi, please bear with me if we are not able to provide good hospitality for the next period of time!"

"If that child Gawain does anything to make you angry, even at home, you don't have to be patient. Just teach him a lesson!"

"Anyway, please make yourself at home!"

—What? What?

Finally we arrived at the teaching location, our field classroom.

Gao Wen:

"So, Mr. Luo Qixi, you've been going crazy for almost half a month just for such an illogical reason? To use Rudeus' words, Mr. Luo Qixi, you're unexpectedly an idiot, aren't you?"

Rudeus:

"What do you mean by my words? I've never slandered you like that, okay? Teacher Luo Qixi, please understand!"

Gao Wen:

"I'm just saying, please teach us all the new knowledge you have. Who told you to solve all the problems on your own and then throw the answers at us? These topics simply can't be solved in a day or a month, by one or a few people. You can figure this out with just a little thought, right?"

"Honestly, Mr. Roxy, even if you're an idiot, I'm starting to think you're worth hiring. I never understood what Rudeus meant by all those things he kept saying. But as soon as I saw you, I suddenly understood what "stubborn," "idiot," and "stubborn" meant. So that's what they meant."

Rudeus:

"Brother Gao Wen, please let me go."

Gao Wen:

"In short, your job is still to teach us what we need to teach. As for the questions in the notebook, you need to at least master the current system of magical knowledge before you can study them in detail. Moreover, with your level of skill, you can surely see that we haven't seriously nitpicked them, right? Those six pages of questions are merely a part of the problems that Rudeus and I have experienced. The current system of knowledge is likely to have more problems than that, and perhaps it needs to be reconstructed from the root."

Rudeus:

"We are the ones who will lift the clouds of darkness hanging over the world of magical academia!"

"That's a cool statement, right?!"

What? What? What?

Luo Qixi was completely discouraged.

Rudeus was right.

I'm just dwelling on my own thoughts.

The girl struggled to pick out the remaining "weapons," as if she wouldn't be satisfied until she completely destroyed the horns she could get into. She picked up the first one with embarrassment.

"Even putting all that aside! You don't mind my previous 'crazy' attacks on you and my wanton anger towards you? Someone with my personality and behavior is not qualified to be a teacher, right?"

Gawain raised his eyebrows. Those who knew him well knew that he was surprised. This was something extraordinary and rare.

"So what you did earlier is also called a temper tantrum? I see, I understand. Thank you for the important reference. I used to think that a temper tantrum was accompanied by insults or even physical attacks."

"Teacher Luo Qixi, you are indeed very valuable."

Rudeus, who carefully recorded Gawain's precious moment with his own eyes, couldn't help laughing. He had to admit that he always felt that Gawain had a talent for telling jokes.

Luo Qixi was anxious:

"Rudeus-san!"

Relying on Gawain's protection, Rudius straightened his back and issued a formal ultimatum:

"It's fine if Brother Gao Wen doesn't care, but I actually hope you can apologize to me for being affected so many times without any reason."

Luo Qixi stood up obediently, covered her collar with one hand, and bowed deeply to apologize:

"I'm sorry, Rudeus-san. I always took my anger out on you."

Rudeus smiled triumphantly:

"I forgive you for Brother Gao Wen's sake."

After sitting down, Luo Qixi dejectedly searched for other "weapons". She raised the rusty second one:

"Then, Gao Wen, you didn't tell me about the move in advance. Did you want to make fun of me?"
