"Lu Jue."
"Dragon Countryman..."
"Senior Teacher..."
"And, a Senior Trainer... but he obtained his certification in France."
......
Tojo Hana, dressed in a grey-white uniform, finished reviewing the resume, gently pushed up her glasses, and looked at the black-haired young man standing before her.
Tojo Hana (Source: Baidu Moe Girl Encyclopedia, will delete if infringement occurs)
Years of experience in her position gave Tojo Hana's gaze a faint sense of pressure.
"Hello, Tojo Hana-senpai," Lu Jue's face showed little nervousness.
Even after he politely greeted her, she remained silent, staring at him...
No... still staring?
What are you looking at...? Is there something dirty on my face?
"Gulp."
His throat moved, and Lu Jue softly swallowed.
He was actually very nervous inside, and also felt that her gaze was a bit impolite.
Fortunately, not long after, the seriousness on Tojo Hana's face broke, revealing a slight smile, "I'm sorry... Hello, Lu Jue-jun, I know you."
"Tojo-senpai knows me?" Lu Jue's eyes showed a little surprise.
"Yes, when you moved in yesterday, some team members were discussing that a very handsome boy had arrived at the Academy, and they even secretly took photos."
Lu Jue smiled sheepishly.
However, what Tojo Hana said was true.
Lu Jue was handsome in his previous life.
His cheeks were fair, yet not lacking in masculinity.
On this clean canvas, his teeth were bright, his eyes sparkled, and his high nose bridge and sharp, sword-like eyebrows adorned it just right...
The spirit of a proud young man should have leaped off the page, but a faint sense of disappointment and regret lingered between Lu Jue's brows.
Thus, when still, the young man gained a melancholic aura.
However, it didn't affect how striking he was in a crowd in his previous life, and it was the same in this life...
Yes, Lu Jue was a transmigrator.
By a twist of fate, he came to the Uma Musume world and became the young master of the Lu family from the original Dragon Country (memory awakened after transmigration).
"Tojo-senpai is joking. Please guide me in the future."
Regardless of his qualifications or Trainer level, Lu Jue indeed had to call Tojo Hana 'senpai.'
She was a Special Grade Trainer, and also the Trainer of Teresen Academy's strongest team, "Rigil," having guided many famous Uma Musume to win major races.
"Have you settled into your dormitory?" Tojo Hana asked.
"Yes, everything is arranged," Lu Jue had watched the anime and thought Tojo Hana was very serious with strangers and difficult to talk to. Now it seemed he had worried too much.
"Welcome to Teresen Academy. Can you come to the training ground this afternoon?"
"No problem."
Although Lu Jue was a Trainer, he was new, after all, and currently not qualified to create his own team.
So he had to work as an assistant for an internship assessment.
"In the morning... it's a pity I still have things to do, otherwise I could show you around the campus."
"Thank you, senpai, but I also need to go to the student council later, so I don't have time either."
"Alright," Tojo Hana remembered another license on Lu Jue's resume, "But you don't have to call me senpai, call me..."
Tojo Hana suddenly found herself in a bit of a dilemma.
"Then I'll call you Sister Hua, is that okay?" Lu Jue suggested.
"That's fine," Tojo Hana said, then thought of something else and asked, "Lu Jue, why are you a Dragon Countryman, but you got your Trainer certificate in France, and then ended up in Japan?"
"Uh..." Lu Jue subconsciously lowered his head, a hint of sadness flashing in his eyes. He clearly didn't want to face or answer this question, "Because of some personal reasons, I suppose."
"Alright," Tojo Hana didn't press further when she saw he was unwilling to answer.
......
Teresen Academy truly lived up to its name as the top Uma Musume training academy.
Tall buildings rose from the ground, their walls seemingly freshly renovated, gleaming in the sunlight.
Among them were facilities like a swimming pool, gymnasium, and a comprehensive building, whose unique and exquisite designs alone were first-class.
It was currently class time for the students, so the roads were very quiet, with hardly anyone around.
Lu Jue followed the map, stopping and going, and arrived at the teaching building after about twenty minutes.
In front of the teaching building, statues of three goddesses were erected, solemn and sacred, representing the origin and faith of all Uma Musume in the Teresen world.
Lu Jue had seen them in a dream-like scenario during his transmigration.
His ability to successfully obtain a Senior Trainer certificate was also closely related to them.
Lu Jue withdrew his gaze and, through one of the windows, saw Uma Musume intently listening to their lessons.
He checked the time, didn't linger, and after going upstairs, headed towards the student council office.
He had already met the principal when he arrived yesterday.
The principal had told him to pick up some documents at the student council today.
"Knock, knock—"
"Please come in."
Lu Jue politely knocked and entered.
He was greeted by a tall young woman, wearing a rhombus-shaped emerald earring.
Her eyes were sharp, her arms crossed over her chest, and a strand of white hair falling across her forehead added to her heroic aura, like a commander with authority on a battlefield.
Lu Jue easily recognized her—Rudolph Symboli, known as "The Emperor."
Rudolph Symboli (School Uniform)
The names of Uma Musume in the anime were mostly taken from real-life racehorses. Lu Jue felt that their names were more like unique titles.
"Hello," Lu Jue greeted first.
Rudolph Symboli seemed a bit surprised by Lu Jue's appearance, paused for a second, then came back to herself, "Are you the newly appointed Teacher Lu Jue?"
"Yes."
"The principal informed me yesterday to give you some documents. Please wait a moment."
"Alright, no problem."
Rudolph Symboli turned back to her desk to search for documents, while Lu Jue casually observed the student council office.
A striking plaque hung on the wall.
"Eclipse first, the rest nowhere."
This was Teresen Academy's motto.
"Teacher Lu Jue, it's all here," Rudolph Symboli organized the documents and handed them to Lu Jue.
They included a list of students in the class he would be responsible for, as well as his classroom location, book information, key teaching content, and so on.
"Thank you," Lu Jue held the documents in his arms.
"I didn't expect Teacher Lu Jue to be teaching cooking."
"Haha, actually, before I got my teaching certificate, I already had a nutritionist certificate and a chef's certificate."
"In that case, Teacher Lu Jue's cooking must be delicious, right?" Rudolph Symboli initially thought Lu Jue was aloof, but after a few sentences, she found him quite easy to talk to.
"Haha... Saying it's not delicious would seem too humble, and saying it's delicious would seem too arrogant. You'll only know once you've tasted it yourself."
"Then I must try it given the chance."
After a few polite exchanges, Lu Jue found an excuse to leave the student council.
At that moment, the bell for the end of class rang.
