Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 172: Thanks for Today

Although somewhat awkward, reluctant, and stiff, Serena was getting used to this strange group. She immensely disliked Elysia about everything that girl does and whatever that girl possesses, like spite and envy. Still, she really didn't want to admit it.

As for the others, they finished their lunch and ended with a dessert and some snacks.

"Burp... Fuah, I'm satisfied. I can feel every energy from protein and calories that are ready to fuel this evening's training. Is this the feeling of strength after training after three days? It's amazing." Brian clenched his fists and then opened them again to make a grip-like motion. He felt as if he had suddenly become a mighty man.

"Heh, that's still nothing. Just you wait, when I'm good at magic, you can only see the dust of my victory and success." Ashton wiped his mouth with a tissue after stacking the umpteenth plate of his lunch. He ate quite a lot and could be said to be more than the white cat.

"When you improve your abilities, so do I. Do not think I will walk in place without progress, amateur. Boy. I will prove it once again that you are still a beginner, but after this." Brian smirked, not at all offended by that taunt.

"We'll see that later." Ashton just wagged his hand.

As for David, he was still peacefully eating some biscuits. For some reason, his boss and this Ashton became rivals for almost everything. He was also often used as a judge or mediator among them.

When he saw the biscuits on his plate run out, a girl beside him gave him a full plate of biscuits. David turned sideways to see Cora and Nico staring at him with faint smiles, but why did their eyes feel as if they were pitying someone?

"Is this for me?" David asked, even if only for pleasantries.

"Yes, please." Nico nodded slowly.

"Oh, great! Thank you, you are kind." Receiving confirmation, David devoured the biscuits right away.

"Um, alright. Don't be shy about it. You need to eat a lot." Nico felt a bit of pity for the boy beside her.

His boss and his friend ate a lot in the competition, but he only ate two servings. Not to mention that because this boy's physique looked so thin, he seemed malnourished.

David paused for a moment, then looked down at his body. He was thin, and he needed to eat a lot as instructed by the club's seniors. Still, it needed to be gradual according to dietary patterns. He just shrugged his shoulders. The girl next to him wasn't wrong.

Seeing the two boys' behavior who could not make peace, Evelyn exchanged words in a whisper to Elena. Then, she finally decided to confirm what Elena told her.

"Nee, you're Brian and Ashton, right? Can I just call you by your names?" Evelyn's pleasant voice caused the two boys to stop bickering. They immediately focused on the beautiful girls in front of them.

"Yes, please call me by my name. No need to use formalities or anything." Brian quickly gave his confirmation as he glanced at the girl beside Evelyn. He wanted it to be realized, especially for his idol girl. He didn't wish to Elysia so formal and felt a little distant.

"Yes, just call me by my name. That way, we will be closer. In exchange, I will also call you by your name only. Sounds good?" Ashton smiled gently, in contrast to the insulting smile he'd been giving Brian in recent times.

"Yes, sounds good, makes it easier for me. So, do you guys always have activities at the bodybuilding club every day? Today is a weekend and a day off every week, right?" Evelyn nodded slightly.

"Uh? A day off is just for the wea... Ahem, a man doesn't have a day off from his training. Apart from practicing six to eight hours a day, I also attend for routine activities at the club." Ashton cleared his throat. He almost blurted out the offensive words and offended the others, especially the girls.

"Yes, Evelyn. The bodybuilding club activity runs every day from afternoon to evening. It's the freedom to come to the club between those times, but each exercise should not take less than two hours." He was now a man who knew good manners and explained eloquently like a reliable senior from a cool guy.

"Hm, so diligent. Ely, don't we look like lazy students? We practice almost, or like once every two days? And or, every time there's a class? And that's not more than four hours..." Evelyn tugged Elena's dress a little.

"That's fine, Eve. We're just practicing swordsmanship and magic. Ashton and Brian also train their physiques for greater strength. Everyone has a different way of training..." Elena answered as she stirred her drink.

Elena's words really made Ashton and Brian happy, Brian being the happiest one. Somehow, they seemed to know they were one step ahead of approaching these beautiful and kind girls.

"Um, do you want to join the bodybuilding club, Eve?" Elena seemed to know in the revolving wind. She questioned it with a lure expression.

"Oh, no. I'm fine, thanks." Evelyn refused immediately. She drank her drink innocently as a diversion.

"Hehe... How about you, Vann? Is today a fun day?" Elysia stroked the white cat who was sitting lazily beside her.

"Mew." Vanessa meowed as her response. This day was great and good for her. Her master kept the promise to stock some food supplies, as well as the current great dishes.

"Hm, your body is small, but you eat quite a lot, hmm-hmm... I wonder where the food you just ate has gone. Your small tummy can accommodate it all?" Ella also gently stroked the cat beside her.

Vanessa didn't need to answer that. She was enjoying herself being showered with attention by her master. Perhaps, she should search for more incredible and valuable treasures to guarantee a lifetime stock of supplies for herself and her master.

The white cat who was motivated wanted to support herself and her master by becoming a treasure hunter. However, that was for later business. She now just wanted to enjoy her comfortable and peaceful moment.

Serena just glanced here and there. She only had her maids to talk to her for a few occasions. She simply could not and did not want to talk to others about such trivial conversations. She unconsciously considered the other was beneath her.

Then at the same time, the door to their room opened. A maid lady came with a tray, it was clear what was on top of it.

Elena quickly imitated Evelyn sipping her drink through a straw, with an innocent and clueless expression as if she didn't know anything.

With respect, the maid lady put the tray in front of Serena, and it was because Serena was closest to the entrance. "Excuse me, this is the bill. It was combined from the order at the general table earlier."

Serena blinked her eyes in surprise. She seemed to realize why Elysia invited her to participate in this little party. That hateful girl turned out wanted to make her pay for everything !? It seemed like this seating position was as if it had been planned beforehand.

Although unsatisfied, annoyed, and loathe evolving around, Serena still took the bill to see what price she had to pay. She was the only daughter of the Scott Duke Family, and money was never a problem for her, but this bad taste in her heart was so torturous.

'What!? Ten gold coins to eat at this middle-class cafe for only ten guests!? Is it because of those two freaks and that hateful cat!?' Serena screamed in her mind, reluctant to treat everyone she didn't like at a fee like this.

Then, she turned her head towards Elysia and the others with some resentment in her eyes, as if she understood this was subtle retribution.

"Hm?" Ella looked at the girl on her right as she finished her milkshake. "You want to pay for us, Serena? Ah, um... Is that too expensive? Let me pay for it then."

The girl's innocent words with the overly wealthy family's origin and the power evenly distributed throughout the Human Continent instantly drowned out whatever thoughts Serena had in mind.

"No, this number is nothing to me." Serena immediately put the gold coins she needed on the tray, nothing more and nothing less.

Ella's words sounded like a subtle insult to her ears. If she didn't want to pay this bill, it would be like she embarrassing herself after all her arrogant words in the class.

Inevitably, she had treated three starving freaks and three girls who were unfamiliar with her, not to mention that hateful girl and that gluttonous cat.

"Hmph! Cora, Nico, let's go." Serena no longer wanted to stay here with this annoying group that seemed to conspire just for this outcome.

Cora and Nico got up from their seats in turn, then gave a slight bow to the others before following their master.

"Serena, thanks for today." Elena suddenly spoke. Whatever her purpose, only she and Elysia knew it.
