Cross Dressing In A Fantasy World Full Of Magic

Today was the first day of class in a while for Livie and me. I sighed and told myself that I had to go. It wouldn't be good if I procrastinated.

Livie and I were already awake, and the both of us walked to class. Walking in, the students that were already in were staring at us.

"Holy shit! Charlie, you're still alive??!" A familiar voice appeared, calling out to me.

Everyone then looked at the person who spoke the vulgar words. Ruby hasn't changed one bit since I saw her.

"Alive? Why would I be dead?"

"You were away for two weeks and four days." It was creepy how she kept track of the days we were away.

"What commission did you even take for it to take so long?" She was being quite nosey.

"Olivia and I had taken an escort mission that took six days to complete. Our pay was two platinum coins each" I had said Livie's name to Ruby, and I got too embarrassed to say her nickname in front of her.

Not only that, I told her what mission I had done and how long it took. And to end it, I flexed how much money we earned.

"Six days? Then what took so long to come back?"

"Olivia and I took a week's worth of vacation in the town we had escorted. It then took four days to come back."

"Is taking a vacation even allowed?" Ruby asked.

"Don't know and don't care. Not like they could punish us."

"As long as we can finish a commission once per month, they wouldn't care what happened to us." These were my opinions.

Rebecca appeared in the classroom as Ruby, and I talked. "Charlie! You're still alive!"

Rebecca walked over to me and hugged me while sniffing me. It was weird for someone other than Livie to do this to me.

Getting her off me, I could see Olivia giving Rebecca the eye treatment. "My offer still stands. Why don't you become mine."

"Not possible." I shook my head and denied it.

"Stop flirting in front of me." My eyes twitched hearing Ruby say that.

I wanted to refute it but felt it would only cause a commotion. "So, what were you talking about before I came in?"

Ruby had explained what had happened to my commission. I was too lazy to repeat it, so that I would thank Ruby for it.

"Lucky you. I, the princess, couldn't do something like that." She sighed, very much jealous of what Livie and I had done.

"What commission have the both of you done?" It wasn't fair if I was the only one that had told my part of the story.

"My commission was pretty simple." Rebecca had started her story first.

"All I had to do was make a speech in front of a large audience."

"Isn't that supposed to be your job as the first-born princess?" Ruby had said, questioning her commission.

"Exactly." I guess princesses do have their privilege.

"What about you, Ruby? What did you do?" Ruby looked stoke, seeing it was her turn to tell her adventures.

"Gold and I went to the forest and hunted a rank three gorilla threatening a village." Ruby had her arms around the hips trying to retell her story.

Despite her making weird fighting poses that had attracted everyone in the room. Ruby seemed like she enjoyed telling it.

"Our fight was close, our attack had reached one another, and I emerged as the winner." Even if some parts of the story were exaggerated, it would still be a great story.

"That's nice and all, but how much money did you get from that?" She should have earned a hefty amount of money for an action-pack adventure.

"100 Gold Coins for our group." That was pretty low.

"Are you serious? Olivia and I earned two platinum coins each for barely doing anything."

Ruby could not say anything when I mentioned the amount we earned. Ruby felt that her effort wasn't worth what she had done.

"Charlie, we also got some diamond coins for saving a noble." Livie had added a nail to the coffin.

"Charlie, I will outperform you for the next commission!" Ruby had found a goal for the start of next month. I hope she won't be killed because of it.

"Good luck then?"

"I don't need your encouragement."

After that minor scuffle, Ruby changed the topic. "It has been almost two months, and none of us have hanged. Why don't we go somewhere together?"

I didn't mind doing so. Before I could ask, Rebecca asked Ruby first, "Where would we go?"

"I heard there was a contest today." It was oddly convenient that it happened right when we returned from our trip.

"Oh, that contest? I'm hosting it." Now I was curious about what contest they were talking about.

"Of course, you're hosting that." Ruby sarcastically replied to Rebecca's comment.

"What contest are the both of you talking about?"

Ruby, hearing that sheepishly, smiled. "It wouldn't be fun if I told you right away. You will see when we get there."

I then looked at Rebecca to see if she would give me an answer. "Sorry, Charlie, but it would be better if you knew later."

Great! I told myself, looking at Gold, who was talking to Olivia. "Gold, what is the contest about?"

"Ehe... it is a scavenger hunt for prizes." Despite Gold being a dragonewt, she was a quiet person like Olivia.

"Hey! Don't threaten Gold!" Ruby had angrily replied.

"I didn't threaten her. I just asked, and she told me." I corrected Ruby by saying what I had done.

Before we continued, our teacher arrived. Ms. Colorful was the same as always, and everyone returned to their seats after her arrival.

Our lesson began, and I was surprised that this lesson was going to be about reading, which was rare in this school.

Now that Ruby and Rebecca had stated that there was a scavenger hunt today, I couldn't wait to try it out.
