Vol 1 Chapter 2 (2/2)

The men called out, and two subst.i.tutes boarded in their stead: two maids.

Those who had gotten out got into another car which had pulled up behind us.

Inside this car, for a complete change, everyone but me was now female.

“Head Maid, would it sit well with you to depart now?”

The maid who climbed into the driver’s seat asked Kujou Miyuki.

“Please do.”

Could this girl, this ‘Head Maid’ be someone… important?

The car started to move again—— and entered the tunnel.

Amber lamps pa.s.sed by one after another.

It looked so tidy that it seemed unimaginable that they were heading to some remote location.

n.o.body said a word.

I felt slightly uncomfortable with the change of atmospheric pressure pressing onto my ears, and I tensed up even more.

——Where in the world are we going…?

I looked at the maid sitting beside me. She was so beautiful that I wouldn’t have been surprised to find her appearing in a magazine.

When she became aware of my stare, she smiled at me. I was so startled that I quickly s.h.i.+fted my gaze to the front of the car.

I had no clue what was happening right now.

What’s… gonna happen to me?

Eventually, I could see the exit up ahead.

What awaited us after the long tunnel was——

An academy.

The scenery spread out before us down a gentle slope.

It was completely surrounded by mountains. It appeared to be a basin; on an excessively s.p.a.cious stretch of land surrounded by this natural wall. There were numerous buildings, gra.s.sy lawns, tennis courts, gardens, j.a.panese architecture, a horse ranch, and even a lake with yachts moored on it.

The lake was the same color as the sky and one seemed to blend into the other.

We slowly advanced down the the stone-paved road, lined by towering green trees.

Eventually we came to a big gate.

It feels like… right, like something you would see at one of those super-prestigious European schools, I guess?

But although it gives off that impression, it also has a bunch of hints of traditional j.a.pan. I guess it’s like it has the feeling of the Meiji era, or maybe Taisho?

“This is Seikain Girls School,” Kujou Miyuki announced, “The academy you will be attending from now on.”

…………Huh?
