Chapter 192: Change to Training Uniform
Chapter 192: Change to Training Uniform
By good fortune, the students were still conscious of taking their uniforms neatly, without jostling or making a crowd that would make them punished by the fierce instructor.
The boys and girls went to separate ways to different locker rooms. Unfortunately, as expected of limited space, it could not immediately accommodate all the students, whether male or female, in each room.
Those students who were unable to enter to change uniform due to consideration that the locker room was full could only wait outside the locker room.
"Ely, what do we do now? The locker rooms are full, and we only have five minutes." Evelyn inquired with urgency. She and her best friend were part of the female students outside the locker room because it looked too crowded inside.
"As expected, this room cannot accommodate more than a hundred people at once." Elysia shook her head helplessly when she knew the locker room was full.
She didn't have to look inside to know that, but she didn't want to look any longer because she was too embarrassed. The female students immediately took off their academy uniforms inside that room without further ado and without embarrassment.
"Nee, excuse me, hasn't anyone come out yet? We'll be late and get punished." Evelyn anxiously called out to the girl closest to the entrance.
The girl went to check through the door at the curving entrance path, and she closed the door again afterward.
"Not yet, Miss Evelyn." The girl was also a bit nervous because she didn't want to be punished.
"Calm yourself a little, Eve. Five minutes is enough for us. Moreover, it's only been a few seconds. If the first group finishes in two minutes or so, then all of us will be safe." Elysia kindly reassured the girl in front of her.
"But, but, but... Uhh, all right. You're right, Ely." Evelyn could only sigh. She counted for a moment, and she was the third student in the queue. At least, she was slightly better than the one at the very back.
"En, look, some of them are out." Elysia pointed to the opened door. Two female students came out of the locker room wrapped in training uniforms.
"Oh, yes, they are fast. Thank you for changing uniforms swiftly. You guys make me a little calm." Evelyn sent her appreciation to the two girls. Because of them, she was now in the first line.
"Ah, it's okay, Miss Evelyn. For that matter, thirty seconds is more than enough for us to change our clothes." One of the two female students gave a light hand wave.
"Wow! How can you use such a short time for all of that?" Evelyn probed with a slightly surprised and amazed expression.
"Hmm, it's hard to explain. However, you will know if you have practiced moving fast in changing clothes. Anyway, we better not talk here for obvious reasons. Until we meet again on the training ground~" After saying that, the girl left with her friend after they waved their hands at Evelyn.
It was unnecessary to explain why they had to immediately leave that curving entrance path. The two of them could block the way for the other students.
"Mm, see you later." Evelyn simply returned the hand wave.
At that time, Elysia only watched the brief conversation silently. She even ignored the gazes of the two girls just a moment ago. One of them glanced at her as if she wanted to say hi. Yet, it didn't happen because of the unknown.
'Ahh, Ely. Maybe, if you greet them, then they will greet you back with great care. Look at the poor girl earlier. She wanted to greet you verbally but only ended up greeting you with a gaze, hehe...' Elena was amused by seeing that.
'Uhh, but I don't know them. Erm, I forgot their names...' Elysia admitted that with a hint of embarrassment.
'Eh? Have you forgotten the names of those students even after the introductory session five days ago? Well, I also can't remember the names of these nearly three hundred students. Hum, hum, that's understandable.' Elena folded her arms and nodded innocently like a girl with the same viewpoint.
After that moment, several female students came out of the locker room with a calm expression, completely contrasting to the student who had not changed into their training uniform. However, that was none of Elysia and Evelyn's business. The two of them immediately went inside to change.
"Yey, lots of lockers. Which one should we choose, hmm?" Evelyn scanned the room, looking for a nice locker that still had a key hanging in its slot.
"It's all the same, Eve. We'll go with that one, the closest one. We'd better hurry up too, so the other girls can change." Elysia responded, but her cheeks flushed slightly. What could she do about that? Several girls were changing their clothes and showing their underwear in front of her eyes!
"En, target found, secured immediately." Evelyn saw the direction Elysia was pointing. Then she took her best friend's hand to get closer to the chosen locker. For the rest, the two of them also changed their clothes as quickly as possible.
Evelyn moved fast because of the rush of time. Elysia moved more quickly than fast because of the embarrassment of changing clothes in the presence of so many girls. Two different ways and reasons with the same result, these two girls finally finished wearing their training uniforms.
"Ely, let's just keep our stuff in one locker." Evelyn asked while putting her academy uniform and shoes into her Space Bag.
"Oh, sure. Go ahead, put it in my locker." Elysia approved the proposal. She stepped back a little to make room for Evelyn.
"Mhm." Evelyn didn't waste any more time and just put her Space Bag next to Elysia's Space Bag.
There were only two items in that simple locker. Evelyn closed it and just locked it. Now, their Space Bag was secured, and it was time to go.
"Ely, let's go." Evelyn stepped back from the locker with a calm smile after pulling out the locker key.
"Okay. Uhm, excuse me. Please give us a little way out." Elysia nodded, then she led her friend out.
"Ahh, five minutes aren't up yet, and I think we'll be late." Evelyn raised her hands high with a slight stretch.
"Right?"
Hearing a brief response from her best friend, Evelyn remembered that the key was still in her hand. "Hm, Ely, I'll keep this key, okay?"
"Alright, just make sure it doesn't get lost or fall during practice. I think these pants pockets are deep enough. Un, I think it'll be fine." Elysia just agreed to that while checking her training pants' pockets. It didn't matter who would keep it, as long as the key was guarded and it didn't suddenly disappear.
Hearing that, Evelyn kept the key nicely in her pocket. But in spite of everything, her attention was drawn to Elysia's blushing face. Therefore, she approached her best friend and whispered. "Nee, Ely, you turned out to be wearing sexy underwear. You're very tempting in that."
It wouldn't blush if it weren't for the blood rush. Elysia's face returned to a red flush because of Evelyn's teasing words crush.
"Wh-wha, what did you say, Eve?" Elysia timidly questioned that. She tried if this girl was quite brave to repeat her words.
"Ah, Ely, you're blushing again. But, why am I so happy to see this expression of you, hmm? I said, your underwear is so sexy. Un, I see your breasts have grown well. It looks bigger after I saw it, even though it's still wrapped in bra." Evelyn asked in wonder, but she still complied with Elysia's request. She whispered once again with something she knows the best.
"A, u, you, you, I will ignore you." Elysia was too embarrassed to respond to that. She fled right away by walking towards the middle of the training field, leaving Evelyn behind.
It was a common topic discussed by chummy and close-knit girls, but she was just not ready to hear it by someone other than the all-knowing Elena. Apart from that, this was not the right time or place to talk about that.
Seeing her best friend running away and blushing brightly, Evelyn immediately gave chase. She grabbed Elysia's arm gently to explain everything. "Ely, Ely, wait a moment. Please don't ignore me. Ah, please forgive me. I just suddenly wanted to tease you when you blushed."
"Huff, fine. This isn't the place for that." Elysia just let out a soft sigh.
"Oh-ho? Un, alright, I understand." Evelyn nodded several times like a bouncing ball. Despite that, she took the statement with another meaning in her mind.
At that time, the Princess of the Northern Region understood two things... Her first real friend and her best friend could easily blush if teased, and that should only be done in personal time.
Yes! Evelyn would try to incorporate that into her daily routine with her best friend. She made decisions in her mind arbitrarily without anyone knowing but herself.
Then, the clueless Elysia and the satisfied Evelyn walked together into the middle of the training field. There was a conscription class they needed to face... The knight class with the demonstration of the real thing.
