My Multisystem In Isekai

Alissa stayed with him until it was time for the school to end. They talked for quite a while on random topics but soon Zavier felt very tired. The recovery had taken a toll on his body.

The nurse had used healing magic on him but the magic had only increased his body's potential to recover. As such, his wounds had recovered at a faster pace compared to normal recovery.

Turns out, healers in this world wouldn't use real healing magic unless it was a dire situation. They usually employed recovery magic that helped increase the recovery speed by making use of the energy stored in the body for emergencies.

Alissa knew this and didn't bother him when he went to sleep. Though she still didn't leave his side the whole time fearing that he would need something while she was away.

She stayed past the school timings until the girls returned. Nadia was the first to come back and looked very excited while Kacie was the second. She didn't say anything and waited in silence. It was only after Valerie had come strutting in with her ponytail bobbing up and down behind her that Alissa took the initiative to leave.

She excused herself and left Zavier in their care by saying that she didn't want to worry her family by being late.

Valerie nodded and took over her position.

The three girls stayed in the infirmary with Zavier until he was awake. It was already dark outside when he opened his eyes.

He was shocked to see that the girls hadn't woken him up and were waiting quietly on the side. He was not used to such favor from them except maybe from Nadia.

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

"It's okay, you were injured. We thought that it was best if we didn't disturb your rest."

It was Valerie who had responded to his question. She made it look like it wasn't a big deal but to Zavier it didn't look like 'nothing'.

He immediately got up from his bed and put on his shoes. At the same time he wondered who took off his shoes for him. As per his memory, he hadn't taken off his shoes before he had gone to sleep.

"Maybe it was Alissa…"

"What?"

Valerie asked him as soon as he murmured unconsciously. He hadn't expected Valerie to hear his voice.

"Nothing."

Zavier didn't know that Valerie had been extremely attentive to him the whole day. She was sure that she had heard him say 'Alissa' just then.

Women really had a strong intuition when it came to other women. She didn't stay on the topic for long and helped him carry his bag as they left the ward and headed outside.

That night Zavier, his cousins and his aunt shared the same carriage home.

Nadia and Kacie chattered among themselves in low sounding whispers but didn't bother Zavier at all out of consideration for his recent recovery.

Zavier wasn't sure about Kacie, but Nadia, he had come to know thoroughly by then.

There was no way Nadia would have been able to restrain herself like this in front of him.

He didn't say anything but he knew that it was Valerie who must have told the two to take it easy on him.

He wasn't sure what the reason was but he couldn't stop himself from giving a grateful look to Valerie who had been sitting in silence until then.

A smile appeared on Valerie's face as if she had noticed the look that he had given her but she didn't say anything. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

"Did you see Shiranui's face when brother Zavier took out that white flame? She looked so arrogant, didn't she?"

"Mmmh…she did."

Nadia was so excited and kept asking questions that she already knew the answers to. Kacie on the other hand, kept giving her perfunctory replies even though she was just as excited but didn't want to reveal her true feelings.

Zavier had been watching all this with a smile on his face that changed into a playful smirk whenever he noticed Kacie trying to restrain herself. He liked how shy she was and was happy to understand her true feelings.

Otherwise he would have continued to think that Kacie was trying to avoid him rather than thinking that she was just a shy girl who had trouble expressing how she truly felt.

"When the white flame ate up those black flames and grew so big, I was so surprised. When do you think he learned it?"

"Mmmh…I was surprised too. I don't know when he learnt it but it must have taken quite a lot of effort. It's definitely not an easy spell to learn."

Even Kacie had some words to say this time.

Hearing her answer, Zavier could not help but snicker inwardly.

Contrary to what she said, Zavier hadn't put in any effort at all.

"I just sat around and the clone did all the work.", was what he wanted to say but didn't.

It wasn't time yet. He had to get stronger before revealing any of his secrets. Moreover, he did not want to douae their excited spirits with water.

Nadia finally couldn't help herself from asking any longer. The fact that she hadn't bothered Zavier until then was in itself the unfolding of a miracle.

"Brother Zavier, when did you learn magic? Were you really hiding it from us?"

Even Valerie's ears perked up upon hearing her question. She knew that Zavier would not lie to Nadia no matter what.

Zavier stared at her excited face and couldn't help himself from laughing.

He then put on a serious look that changed the bubbly atmosphere of the carriage to a more solemn one.

Even Nadia was listening attentively to the story that Zavier was about to divulge. Valerie showed as if she wasn't interested but her ears were tuned to the same station as the rest of the girls.

Zavier opened his mouth several times before closing them hurriedly as if he was unable to bring himself to talk.

The girls wanted him to take his time as such they did not disturb him but their gazes encouraged him to speak.

Zavier once again opened his mouth and was successful in forming a coherent sentence this time.

"It…it's…it's a secret."

Zavier could finally not hold his laughter any longer and burst into a snicker.

The faces of the girls turned dark like the bottom of a boiling pot. If he hadn't been newly recovered, they would have sent him to the infirmary again.

Nadia didn't take it to heart for long and laughed it away very soon. Her excitement wouldn't let her calm down no matter what happened.

"Brother Zavier, what else can you do beside that white flame? Tell me."

Before Zavier could speak, Valerie's voice sounded from beside him.

"You still don't know how deep he has hidden himself. Besides that white flame, Zavier is also quite good at illusions. Why don't you ask him about that?"

Zavier ground his teeth in frustration. Valerie was definitely getting revenge on him. Since he had played a prank, she had ousted his secret in return.

And knowing Nadia, he would not be sleeping easy that night. Nadia would surely pester him to show her his illusion skills even though she hadn't said it out loud.

Her curious eyes and her blooming expressions revealed it all to Zavier who was now busy cursing the damn woman, Valerie.

Valerie too seemed to be satisfied with the final outcome and didn't bother with him any longer. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

The carriage came to a stop and all of them got off one by one.

No one waited for him this time since he had already recovered.

Zavier got off and rushed back to his room to continue to rest. He was still fatigued from the recovery spell.

Nadia on the other hand rushed for a totally different reason. She wanted to wash up hurriedly so that she could go to Zavier's room.

She was soon done with her routine and rushed to his room with light steps so as to not alarm Valerie who had previously forbidden her from bothering him.

She stood in front of his room and knocked at the door.
