As Gonzales was busy planning the mine, so is Ramirez. What's left is Christine who got nothing to do.
Thus, it was decided that she wil be going to the University of the Philippine. As a growing lady of the new country, she need to learn socializing to learn the culture, language, and anything that will later be useful to her once she became a true citizen of the Philippines.
"Good day, class. Today, we will have a transferee. Note that this one is special and no further relationship should be develop than friends. If something undesirable happen, they will be reported to the government directly. Understood?" The teacher warns before the transferee instructed to proceed inside.
"Yes ma'am." They all answer.
"You may come in." The teacher gesture the timidly walking girl inside and told her to introduce herself.
"H-Hello, I'm Christine Yggdrasil, daughter of Zander the 2nd and princess of Yggdrasil, I'm here as a transfer student ordered by-"
"You don't have to tell all of that." The teacher stop her before anyc further exposure.
"As you can see class, she's a princess. But please despite her status, treat her equally. And also my warning, huh! Especially you boys, don't act all mighty just because a pretty girl entered your class. If you all do something bad, I will personally sent you to your mother's womb, got it?"
"Yes, ma'am." They said which made the teacher feel a little more suspicious about their motive.
"Go on, Christine. You can sit at the front." The teacher said as she point towards an empty sit right beside a boy dressed extravagantly screaming his richness.
As soon as she sit right beside him, he immediately thought,
'Hmm, a princess, huh. I should try changing my taste for a bit.'
But neither does he know that this lady can read his mind.
And so, since then, Christine tried to lessen their contact.
-----
As soon as their homeroom teacher leave, the space of Christine were immediately filled with girls. Some ask question of her culture while some ask her favorite things. And this irritate the guy sitting beside him.
"Can you all sit to your respective places?! You're all acting as if you all just saw her kind for the first time!" He shout which made everyone, even the boys at the back, look at him.
"Well actually, it is our first time we saw them in person."
"J-just please, at least give her some space."
'There he go again, trying to act as if he's the good guy.' said by one of the girls who glance at him coldly.
"T-thank you," Christine said after the girls go to their seats and mind their businesses.
"No worries, I'm Bernard by the way." He said.
Betraying his expectation, Christine simply nod and mind her business, trying to lessen their contact.
-----
Two days ago, before Christine was sent to the Philippines. She was betrothed to Ramirez politically. This is because of the tradition of their kind that was passed down since time immemorial.
In a tribe, if a certain chief lost, he will have to offer his daughter to the winner and the chief who lost will remain as a leader of the tribe. And as time pass by, this tradition grow more and more stronger till they were bound at the hearts of their kind.
Since the new queen of Yggdrasil have no kids, she was left with no choice but to give her sister. This is also because Christine insisted of doing so.
Hence, the engagement.
-----
Going back, it didn't take that much time until Bernard's patience lose as he is naturally an impatient guy.
"You know you can be friendlier, we are free to express ourselves here." He said while tapping his armrest.
However, Christine simply nodded and bow her head slight with an apologetic face.
From Bernard's viewpoint. The beautiful, yet still immature girl are beyond beauty of this world's standard. Not mentioning her horns which truly aligned with her beautiful blue hair, her Grey eyes are simply charming in its own way.
Seeing this mature beauty of his, he decided to take his chance.
"What are you doing? Are you apologizing? I thought you're a royalty, aren't they suppose to act accordingly?" He said trying to tease her.
"I'm sorry, but please don't talk to me." She warns.
"Oh please. You won't be able to have friend if you keep acting like an anti-social person. Let me help you-"
"Please." Christine said with a commanding voice as her face suddenly turn cold while gazing at the man who just tried to touch her horn.
Bernard instinctively retrieve his hand due to fear and immediately went back off from the coldly lady.
"Y-you, what are you!!" He stutter as fear reach his reddening face.
However, Christine didn't answer and just return to her normal state before bowing again and return to her own business.
The classroom was silence for a while as they stare between Bernard and Christine with a smirk.
'Deserve.'
'You deserve that.'
Thoughts about him spoke within the minds of his classmate, Christine heard this and became relieve as her power was not noticed by the others.
While Bernard, who formerly have a teasing face, now filled with nothing but reddening full of fear face.
And just like that, the first day of Christine's school life ended.
