The all-powerful middle schooler

Recalling the unparalleled beauty he had witnessed yesterday, Xue couldn't help but admire it.

"Senior, let's get down to business."

Ruri Gokou watched the two chatting animatedly and felt inexplicably irritated, lightly tapping the table with her finger.

"Business?"

Yukino Yukinoshita looked puzzled.

"Under the snow, I have a suggestion..."

He didn't keep anyone in suspense and explained directly.

“Those who have plenty give their surplus to those who lack it with compassionate hearts. People call them volunteers. Extending a helping hand to those in distress is the original purpose of my establishment of the Service Department. This is not much different from the activities of the Far East Magic Society... Therefore, I choose to join.”

Upon hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita smiled slightly, and even the ice and snow seemed to melt at that moment.

Ruri Gokou stood up excitedly, then boldly extended her right hand in front of the two of them.

Yukino Yukinoshita understood and followed the movement, holding her left wrist with her right hand. After hesitating for a moment, she reached out her hand as well.

Then, both girls looked at him at the same time.

"Anything else for me?"

Hasegawa Izumi raised an eyebrow, looking surprised.

"You're the head of the Far East Magic Society, right?"

"Seniors definitely have to take responsibility."

"I really don't know what to do with you guys."

He sighed and made the same gesture.

He clasped his three hands together and then made a declaration:

"Then, from today onwards, the Chiba branch of the Far East Magic Society is hereby declared established!"

After that, Izumi Hasegawa added Yukinoshita on LINE and shared information about the Far East Magic Society website with the two girls, and asked them to join the group.

"Yukinoshita, what are your thoughts on 'changing the world' now?"

During the conversation, he asked casually.

"I will not give up my ideals... but I am still too weak right now, and my goal of changing the world is still too far away. Now I should be down-to-earth and use the power I have in the right direction."

The snow-white girl's eyes shone brightly as she slowly clenched her fists.

Hasegawa Izumi nodded silently, her eyes filled with satisfaction.

Girl, you've finally grown up!

He quickly agreed to join the group.

"Morisummer, Witch of Greed, Thunder Hammer Rider, Evil King's True Eye Rider, Sage, Spirit Summoner... Everyone's names are a bit special... Should I change my ID to something like that?"

Once inside, Yukino Yukinoshita blushed slightly, looking at everyone's code names.

"It is not mandatory."

This is his answer.

"well enough."

Ruri Gokou casually changed her ID to "Fallen Saint Black Cat".

It might seem a bit childish to the average person, but it's just right for those with a "chuunibyou" (middle school syndrome) mentality.

Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips and clicked to change the address.

It wasn't that she was deliberately trying to please others; she just felt she should be more 'ordinary'.

'Snow Woman... no, let's go with this one.'

Ultimately, she chose the title "Ice Queen," which was barely acceptable.

Soon after the two joined, the group members reacted.

Sage: @All members, let's warmly welcome our two new members @Ice Queen and @Fallen Saint Black Cat.

Morisummer: What's going on?

After a series of repeat grades.

Psychic: Another newcomer! Great, at least I'm not the least experienced one anymore!

Morisummer: Anyway, welcome to the newcomer!

The Evil King's True Eye: Here we go again? New combat power.

Thunder Hammer Warrior: Don't worry, newbies, your seniors will protect you during battle!

The Witch of Greed: I bet it's two beauties.

Apart from the psychic, everyone else immediately replied, "That's true," "I think so too," and "I'm really hungry."

The Witch of Greed: This is our minister? Have you ever seen a minister like this before?

"Good grief, are they making fun of me again?"

Hanase Izumi silently noted this down in her mind.

Then, Ruri Gokou and Yukino Yukinoshita briefly introduced themselves in the group chat, how they met Hasegawa, and the establishment of the branch, which was well received by everyone.

He then spent another half hour giving the two of them pointers.

"Senior, I will work hard in my cultivation and amaze you one day."

Goodbye, Hasegawa.

There was no crying or fussing; the three of them said goodbye quite easily.

That afternoon.

The Hasegawa siblings returned to Tokyo in the Sawamura family's car.

"Izumi-chan, I haven't seen you all morning! Did you go on a secret rendezvous with the second young lady of the Yukinoshita family? Too bad, Eriri lost again..."

"Gasang!"

……

The commotion of a few days ago seemed like an illusion.

Time passed smoothly until the eve of the end of the winter vacation.

It was evening, after lunch.

Hasegawa Izumi came to the second-floor balcony, looked up at the sky, and saw the starry sky reflected in her eyes.

"Looks like there will be a meteor shower today..."

Although the secrets of heaven are shrouded in mystery and the deeper things cannot be seen, some things that appear on the surface can still be clearly seen.

While observing the celestial phenomena that night, he suddenly remembered something from the past.

……

Eriri was diligently practicing her drawing skills at the table when her cell phone suddenly rang.

"Izumi is actually coming over so late at night?"

Upon seeing this message, she instantly perked up from her exhaustion.

Could it be...? No way?

That...that's really coming, isn't it?

The girl's heart was pounding. Before her childhood sweetheart arrived, she hurriedly changed into a beautiful outfit, put on contact lenses, and tied her hair into her most familiar pigtails.

after a while.

Hasegawa Izumi arrived at the old Furukawa garden where the Sawamura family lived and explained the purpose of her visit.

【I knew it. 】

Eriri tilted her head slightly, her eyes showing a hint of dejection.

but……

"Quan, you still remember this promise?"

The young girl was deeply moved, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"I'm quite confident in my memory."

he laughed.

Even so, if it's not a memory worth caring about, it will probably be sealed away.

"By the way, will there really be a shooting star tonight?"

Eriri's skepticism stemmed from the fact that she had been secretly following news in this area and had not noticed any prior announcements.

"My judgment cannot be wrong."

He said confidently.

"Let's go see the meteor shower together."

Chapter 1, End of Volume: Her and His Past.

The two walked side by side, bathed in moonlight, through clusters of flowers, to the end of the path, then across the meadow, until they reached the large tree behind the villa.

"Ten years ago, wasn't this the place where we watched that meteor shower?"

As Izumi Hasegawa spoke, she sat down against the big tree.

"Yes, the starlight that night was really beautiful; it's said to be a once-in-a-lifetime event."

Eriri glanced at the grass, which still smelled of earth, then held her skirt close to her thighs with both hands and slowly sat down.

"That day was Aunt Xiaobaihe's birthday, and you still dragged me here. Did Aunt Xiaobaihe spank you afterward?"

"No way! Besides, you were the one who said you wanted to see shooting stars that day!"

"really?"

"of course it's true!"

……

The girl felt a deep longing for this kind of chat atmosphere. Looking at the face so close to hers, which had matured from its youthful days, she suddenly realized many things at that moment.

So close, it feels like it's been years since we've been this close.

When exactly did the distance between the two sides begin to widen?

It's so close, yet it seems so far away.

I really miss those days when we could talk about anything.

As the two talked about what happened that day, the girl's memories surged back under the moonlight.

……

Because her mother and Izumi's mother had been good friends since high school, the Sawamura family and the Hasegawa family had a good relationship. She and Izumi had also been friends since kindergarten. Izumi even put a ring made of white clover on her finger and said he wanted to marry her... Of course, these were all things from when she was a child, and she might have remembered them wrong.

As she grew a little older, she developed an interest in painting and enrolled in the studio of the famous painter Shiina. At the time, she even asked Izumi to join her because she was afraid of being lonely.

As a result, over thirty children of the same age struggled and chose to leave because of that woman's artistic talent. Even she herself only managed to stay in the painting after being encouraged by Izumi.

When it was time for elementary school, she and Izumi returned to Tokyo to attend the same elementary school.

I thought the days ahead would be even happier, but...

Why, why did it turn out like this?

I don't know when it started, but Izumi started to act strangely, as if he had two personalities.

A very gentle and considerate person.

One is an oddball who often says nonsensical things, which has even caused quite a bad influence, to the point that her interpersonal relationships at school have become very bad, forcing her to turn their relationship from an overt one to a covert one...
