Chapter Thirty-Six Begins

  "Now, the 78th... Maboroshi Festival officially begins!!"

  "Those who come to participate in the Maboroshi Festival, please don't stand near the entrance——"

  Thousands of people gathered together, airplanes flying in the sky without stopping, colorful balloons floating and rising, one after another hot air balloon soaring into the sky, the sound of gongs and drums ringing out, cheers shaking the heavens...

  This is Mahoroba Gakuen Festival.

  "Wow - it's great!" Negi exclaimed involuntarily as he walked along the road.

  One morning, Negi suddenly came to find me and said he wanted to participate in the school festival with me.

  I recalled the time machine on my hand and thought of his plan for today's action, and I couldn't help but nod slightly.

  "I didn't expect this festival to be so grand!"

  Upon hearing this sentence, I slightly rolled my eyes. In this comic, the Maboshi Academy is the central theme, how can its festival be small? Isn't that a waste of words?

  But it's really amazing to say that the immersive feeling is magical, and the air seems to be filled with a joyful atmosphere.

  Indeed, seeing and experiencing in person are two completely different concepts.

  Even if the author draws very well and seems to bring people into the scene, there still seems to be a big gap between it and reality.

  "Negi, have you thought of where we should go first?" I asked.

  Negi was just about to speak when a gigantic paw suddenly fell from the sky, barely missing stepping on him.

  Waaaahhhh...

  He looked up and Negi was startled for a moment as an enormous dinosaur brushed past him.

  "Little brother, you can't run into the procession!" someone reminded him.

  What an exaggerated makeup!

  Seeing Negi's unsettled appearance, I smiled slightly, "Alright then, why don't we go take a look at your class first?"

  "Alright, alright." Negi patted his own chest and said happily: "If the students of Class 3-A knew that you were going, they would definitely be very happy."

  Under Negi's lead, the two of us arrived at Class 3-A. What struck me as absurd was that the haunted house here seemed to be extremely popular, with a line that went straight from the corridor down to the stairs.

  Nagisa couldn't close his mouth from smiling and said it was too exaggerated, looking like he's really happy.

  Under Yuna's lead, we two surpassed everyone and started experiencing first.

  This privilege naturally caused dissatisfaction among many people, but after revealing Negi's identity as a teacher, everyone suddenly had nothing to say.

  "This haunted house allows guests to choose one of three routes based on their preferences..."

  "Welcome to 3A's House of Horrors..."

  The three routes are Class Representative's Gothic-style haunted house, Toki's Japanese urban legend, and Oohashi Akira's school ghost story.

  "Teacher, which road do you think is better." Negi turned his head and asked me, looking at the three people's faces.

  "The scariest." I replied without hesitation.

  Nagi's face stiffened, just in time to say something, I pulled him towards the crystal river.

  "Lead the way."

  Two seconds later, she fell to the ground, "Why are school ghost stories the scariest?" She protested.

  "I grew up listening to ghost stories." I replied lightly, and Negi and I followed the lead of Kamo into the school's ghost story room.

  The first thing I saw was a long corridor.

  "Wow, it's so spacious! Is this really a classroom?" Negi asked loudly.

  "It's said that Chou is using the latest technology to create this..." explained Tairada Akira.

  Carelessly, Negi stepped on something and looked down to find the principal lying on the ground.

  "Oh no......the principal......the principal is dead."

  "Calm down, Negi." The moment of revenge has arrived. That's why I chose a school ghost story for this moment.

  Last night I carefully recalled what happened at the school festival. Although many details are no longer clear, the plot of the haunted house suddenly popped out.

  I grabbed Negi and then forcefully trampled on the principal's head, also stomping a few times for good measure.

  "It's fake, the principal of the academy can't possibly die in a place like this. This principal is fake, it must be that Chao used the latest technology to create a realistic product."

  Saying so, in order to make Negi believe me, I stomped my feet a few more times.

  Before the long hair flew out of the academy, he quietly withdrew his foot and went back.

  "It's just an illusion, Negi. You're too tense. If you don't believe me, try stepping on it a few times and see for yourself."

  "It...is like that." Negi let out a sigh of relief and started laughing, casually kicking his feet.

  "It's really just like it's true, Super Brother is too amazing."

  One side of the river, Negi was sadly looking at the principal lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and quickly opened his eyes.

  "Let's... let's keep going, Negi-sensei!"

  Now that I've vented, I won't interfere with what's coming next.

  ōkawa Akira's fake death, glass blood handprint, and being bullied with special service - stripping clothes.

  Negi was so scared that he shouted loudly and rushed out in a panic.

  "You guys are going too far." I couldn't help but say out loud when I saw this.

  "Sorry, teacher." The girls giggled and didn't take it seriously at all.

  "It's alright, Negi definitely won't mind." Someone else said that.

  I couldn't help but shake my head, "That's true, but Negi is only ten years old, you're scaring him like this, it's likely to leave a bad impression on his young heart."

  "Apologize sometime." With that said, I left the haunted house.

  As soon as I stepped out, the situation in front of me stunned me.

  Negi's eyes welled up with tears, his two hands placed on Asuna's chest, rubbing and rubbing nonstop...

  The atmosphere seems extremely silent, a dead silence.

  Too bold, and your relationship has already reached this level?

  "Mei, when did you become a lolicon?" I broke the silence after being stunned for a moment.

  "I'm not a lolicon!" Asuna instantly regained her composure, punching Negi and sending him flying. "You bastard, how dare you grope my breasts and not even wear pants..."

  "How terrifying, how terrifying... especially the last one..." Nekomata cowered to the side, tears streaming down her face.

  After all this commotion, his spirit seemed to be unable to hold on any longer and he began to feel dizzy and faint.

  Under everyone's persuasion, Negi decided to go to the infirmary and rest for thirty minutes.

  Moreover, Mokona also entrusted Setsuna with guarding Negi.

  This is where the story begins.

  According to the original plot, Negi and Setsuna overslept and then used a time machine to return to the beginning of the first day.

  However, with the time machine now in my hands, changing the plot is just a thought away.

  Although I wanted to change the story at this point, I gave up thinking that Negi would definitely be depressed about missing the appointment.

  Sleep tight, I'll come pick you up tonight.

  Thinking so, I saw Setsuna and Negi say goodbye, then I quietly left the infirmary, starting my first day.

  Firstly, Xiao Ye wants to dress up as a ghost and scare people, so it's impossible for her to go out and play with me on the first day.

  Setsuna and Negi are sleeping, for a moment, it seems like there's no one who can play with me.

  Well, there's nothing else going on anyway, so let's go take a look at the Academy Fist Fighting Tournament hosted by Super Chime.

  After thinking about it for a moment, he rushed excitedly towards that place.
