Nothing much happened in this chapter. That's why I'm going to post it together with chapter 7. As always, comments are <3

“How I wish that I could apparate to the class right now,” complained Nino.

Today is their first day of class. Thankfully, the opening ceremony ended early yesterday. The ceremony was boring with the headmaster warned them not to be naughty and follow the rules. But, the food was tasty. So, Nino would give extra mark for that.

“Too bad that you could only learn apparition in your third year. Even so, you are not allowed to apparate in school,” explained Sho. They had just finish their breakfast in the dining room.

“Then, what’s the point of learning apparition? Ah, I’m so tired. J, carry me to class,” said Nino as he leaned closer to Jun who chase him away.

“Nino, even though you’re small, it doesn’t mean you’re not heavy. I don’t want to waste my energy carrying you. Why don’t you ask your Ohchan?” Jun deliberately mocking the way Nino called Ohno with his high pitched voice. Ohno, who was discussing something with Aiba enthusiastically, stared at them in confusion when his name was mentioned. Nino was glad that Ohno looked comfortable to be with them now thanks to their pillow fight and wrestling session yesterday.

“No way. Ohchan is about the same size as me. I don’t think he would be able to carry me,” Nino deliberately stressed the way he called Ohno to correct Jun’s pronunciation. “Anyway, what are both of you talking about?”

Aiba grinned at Nino to hear that. Nino had a bad feeling seeing Aiba’s smile as it must be something to do with his experiment. Aiba loved to conduct experiment but none of them are willing to help him because it was pointless. Who would want to know if pepper could help you breathe underwater or if you could walk on the water using plastic or if a recorder, lotus root and chikuwa could be used to drink juice? Aiba even proposed to conduct an experiment to see if human could fly using balloons. Come to think of it, his experiments were not only futile, but it could be dangerous too. Geez, this boy is a wizard, but why do he loved to do scientific experiment.

Now, he had found a perfect candidate to help him with his experiment. Poor Ohno. The boy didn’t know what kind of stupid experiment Aiba would suggest and seeing that Ohno didn’t have the heart to reject Aiba’s offer, it could be a disaster for Ohno. Nino should warn Ohno about Aiba’s dangerous experiment.

“Ohchan wants to help me with my mirror man experiment. He said that my idea to make an invisible man using mirror is brilliant,” said Aiba enthusiastically and Ohno nodded in agreement. Nino, Sho and Jun rolled their eyes, couldn’t believe someone would think Aiba’s experiment was brilliant.

“Aiba, if you want to be invisible, I’m sure that there is a spell that you could use. You don’t need to do the experiment with mirror,” advised Sho but Aiba just pouted, a usual reaction they see whenever Sho tried to talk to him about his experiment.

“I don’t think Aiba wants to be invisible. He simply wants to know if we could use mirror to be invisible,” said Ohno, defending Aiba. Aiba grinned again to have someone supporting him.

“But, it could be dangerous. Not to mention, it was pointless because we already know it is impossible,” Nino try to debate with Ohno but Ohno simply shook his head, disagree with him.

“How do you know it’s impossible if you don’t try? I don’t think it is useless or dangerous.  I’m sure Aiba will take precaution to ensure its safety. Besides, it’s not like Aiba is asking you to join the experiment. You don’t have to join if you don’t want,” argued Ohno. Nino sighed as he noticed a few students were looking at their direction.

“Fine. But, I want to join the experiment too. I want to laugh at you guys when the experiment fail,” said Nino, knowing that there’s no way Ohno would change his mind. He didn’t expect Ohno could be stubborn when he appeared to be gullible.

“Okay, now stop arguing. If you keep arguing, we will be late to Magical Law class. I heard Miyama sensei is quite eccentric. Who knows what will he do to us if we’re late. Furthermore, we don’t want to tarnish our reputation as the descendants,” Sho urged them to walk faster realizing the time. Nino rolled his eyes at Sho, couldn’t believe that Sho would think of their reputation of all things.

Contrary to Sho’s belief, they arrived early at the class. There were only a few people in the class. One of them was Inoue Mao who happened to be Jun’s crush. She sat alone at the centre row. Nino chuckled as both Jun and Mao turned red when they noticed each other. He gave Aiba and Sho a knowing look while Ohno remained oblivious.

He dragged Ohno to sit beside him, which is in front of Mao. Sho and Aiba took a seat in the front. Much to his surprise, Jun followed him and sat next to Mao. He loved to see the way Mao blushed when Jun sat next to her.

“Finally ready to confess?” Nino started to tease the other guy. Ohno let out a soft ‘Ah’, perhaps because he finally knew who the girl was.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Mao chan, I hope you don’t mind I’m sitting here. I think this is the best position to sit,” said Jun and Mao simply nodded.

“It’s okay, J. I understand if you want to take your time,” Nino still teased him. Jun glared at him, as usual, but he already immune to the glare.

“Anyway, where are the rest of your group?” Asked Nino, decided to leave Jun alone. It’s weird to see Mao without her group members because everyone else was with their group.

“Oh, I’m not sure. I left early this morning. I went to the library to do some reading,” said Mao. Nino was surprised to know someone else was nerdier than Sho. If Mao is in the same House as Sho, they will be best buddy for studying. But, based on her uniform, Mao would be in the House of Ninomiya.

“Wow, I never thought that you are nerdier than Sho. First day of class and you’re already go to the library,” Nino complimented the girl who lowered her head. “Anyway, do you know anyone else who would be in the House of Ninomiya?”

“Ah, I just know Erika will be in the same house because she is in my group. I’m not sure about anyone else,” answered Mao. Nino nodded, remembering Toda Erika whom he knew because of their parents. She often come to Nino’s house and Nino enjoyed her company. He heard rumours from Aiba that Erika is interested with him but he was sure it wasn’t true.

Nino enjoyed the obvious look of jealousy on Jun’s face to see how Mao was more relaxed to chat with him than with Jun. After all, he knew Mao first before Jun met her. She was the daughter of his mother’s best friend. She often came to their house before she lived in London for a couple of years. She just get back to Japan recently. She used to fight a lot with Jun when they were kids but when they reunited a couple of months ago, they’ve became awkward with each other.

However, he didn’t realize someone else was looking at him with jealousy as well until he heard a groan next to him. It was the first time he saw Ohno in a bad mood and of course Jun used the chance to tease him. Because of the tease, things somehow turned awkward between him and Ohno. He immediately turned to the front, waiting for the teacher to arrive and getting ready to have his first formal education in magic.
