A Guide to Studying at a Magic Academy [Western Fantasy]

[Magical World's Untouchables | Self-Made Girl | Five Men Battle for Her]

Lin Yuejiao is human, a good-for-nothing at magic, and owes twenty thousand in tuition on the first day of school. The whole campus avoids her.

To make ends meet, she braves the odds and starts a shopping service in the magical world, making a fortune under the username Gold Medal Customer Service.

Unable to resist the prize money, she enters the Mage Tournament. As a human, she face-slaps the bigots and becomes the center of everyone's attention.

But mixed in among those gazes are some vile, lustful ones. Lin Yuejiao pretends not to notice, but grows more and more uneasy.

Her arrogant genius classmate considers humans weak and insignificant. Then one day, his eyes gleam with a sinister, beastlike light as he traps her in a corner. "Touch them. Aren't we friends?"

Lin Yuejiao is shocked. "T-Two of them?!"

Her gentle, gracious big-spending client is magnanimous and courteous. But when she tries to run, he pursues her relentlessly, his fingers brushing the corner of her lips. "Come see me tonight, and I'll let bygones be bygones."

Lin Yuejiao gives a nervous laugh. "Could we make it morning...?"

The dangerous, unhinged transfer student has held a blade to her throat time and again. Yet when her body really does grow cold, he kneels in tears and kisses her palm with trembling lips. "Please, open your eyes and look at me again."

Lin Yuejiao has nothing to say. "..."

The prophet hiding in the shadows and the ruler on the throne each believe they can manipulate her as they please. Before they know it, they are both hopelessly entangled.

After countless hardships, she carves out a place for herself in the magical world. She arrives beneath the stars, keeping her goal buried deep within her heart. She refuses to be a fleeting flower that blooms and fades in an instant.

They see through her ambition and offer her their desires and their sincere hearts, willingly becoming stepping-stones to lift her higher. In the end, she will ascend the long staircase and unveil the dawn that belongs to her.

[Bonus Scene]

To create a popular tourist attraction and draw customers to her stall, the hardworking human shopkeeper puts up a photo-op sign:

"I miss you so much on the walking street at Sacred Rainbow Academy."

She also plays music from her hometown to build the atmosphere: When the sun no longer rises, when the earth no longer turns...

Her stall gradually grows popular, and the whole street catches on too. A thriving tourism industry is just around the corner.

Lin Yuejiao proudly plants her hands on her hips. I'm a genius.

But then...

A certain spirit mage sees it and thinks: She's making such a public confession.

A certain light mage sees it and thinks: A girl so straightforward deserves a reward.

A certain water mage sees it and thinks: She really does care about me.

One day, Lin Yuejiao suddenly realizes: Do all my magical academy classmates have designs on me?!!!

I thought you were my classmates, but you want to hit on me?
