Chapter 147. Move to St. Freya?
Bzz—bzz—bzz~
In the early morning, the phone's vibration, along with a shrill ringtone, awakened Xander.
He squinted at the still pitch-black window, then closed his eyes again and groped around on the bed.
"Are you looking for this?"
A pleasant voice sounded by his ear.
Xander opened his eyes and saw a hand reaching out in front of him, holding his vibrating phone.
As for the hand he had just been groping with, it was resting on the owner's chest.
"Ahem."
With an awkward chuckle, Xander took the phone as if nothing had happened, then pulled the girl beside him into his arms.
Elysia covered her mouth and yawned.
After the mischievous hand that had woken her disappeared from her body, she nestled back into her lover's arms and contentedly closed her eyes.
Who calls this early in the morning, and from an unfamiliar number, when the sky isn't even light yet.
Muttering with some frustration, Xander simply answered the call.
"Hello, is this Masato ?"
The voice sounded somewhat familiar.
Working his still-groggy mind, it took Xander a few seconds to react, and he couldn't help but say in surprise, "Mr. Welt?"
"Mm, it's me."
By now, Xander was finally a bit awake and asked in puzzlement, "Mr. Welt, is something the matter?"
"Cocolia told me earlier that you plan to enroll ahead of schedule?"
"That's right."
He looked a little dazed and replied flatly.
Yesterday he had indeed asked "Mom Cocolia" to see if she could find a school leader to help resolve the early move-in, since Anti-Entropy is also one of St. Freya High's sponsors.
But how did even Welt know?
So this was how it got handled.
Amazing… not!
Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut!
"This isn't difficult. I've already contacted St. Freya High's Academy Head Theresa for you, and she's quite looking forward to your arrival."
He continued, "In a moment I'll send you Theresa's contact info. In the next few days, whenever you have time, just contact her before you go to St. Freya High. You don't need to worry about the procedures. She'll receive you and help you choose a suitable residence."
"I see. Then I'm really troubling you."
The corner of his mouth twitched, and Xander hurriedly expressed his thanks.
Welt, Theresa… he had only thought to casually find a school leader to get it done, but "Mom Cocolia" went straight to the top.
Is this what favoritism is?
Love it, love it.
"No, it's not a bother. More than that, I'm looking forward to what surprises your new game will bring me."
Hearing Welt's cheerful voice through the phone, Xander could only look helpless.
The game hasn't even been greenlit.
He had only mentioned it in passing on the phone yesterday, and she already let it slip.
It's like telling your mom at home what you want to do, and by the next day all the relatives and neighbors know, and in your mom's retelling it's practically already done.
It's not ideal, but he couldn't really blame her urge to brag about her kid.
Nothing to be done but do his best and turn her boasting into reality.
After a few more words of small talk, Welt hung up.
As Anti-Entropy's leader, he was quite busy.
"So we're moving to St. Freya High after this?"
Squinting, Elysia opened her mouth to bite lightly on his shoulder and spoke a little indistinctly.
"Mm. Let's make a trip in the next few days."
Tightening his arms a little, Xander set down the phone, lowered his head to rest against that pink little head, and closed his eyes to take in the fragrance at his nose.
Last night, after Elysia stayed up late, she indeed "sleepily" went to the wrong room, and Xander had likewise forgotten to lock his door.
Making her go back next door would have been too much trouble, so Xander generously gave her half his bed, and the two of them squeezed together to make do.
But it was just simply holding each other to sleep, aside from one long goodnight kiss, with no other crossing-the-line actions.
He did like that sort of thing, but he wasn't that impatient.
At that moment, Elysia shifted, squeezed forward again, and leaned close to his ear to whisper, "Little Xander is being a bit naughty~"
"Ahem. It's just a normal physiological reaction."
Being called out like that made Xander a little embarrassed.
"So, do you need me to help?"
The slightly bewitching voice instantly pulled his mind back to that night with fireworks.
Silent, he nodded slightly.
He might not be impatient, but if a benefit delivered to his door wasn't accepted, that would be a bit too pretentious.
"Hehe~"
With a soft laugh, Elysia kissed the corner of his mouth and then slowly slipped under the covers.
…
In the morning, in "sage mode," Xander sat on the sofa in a daze.
Seele and Kaguya were already in the kitchen making breakfast for the family.
Bronya sat next to him, focused on the data on her laptop.
As for Elysia, she was still washing up; since she needed a shower, she was still in the bathroom.
"What are you thinking about?"
Bronya's voice came, and Xander replied without thinking, "So this is what it's like to be squeezed in the middle… No, nothing."
Skipping past Bronya's puzzled look, Xander sobered and said, "What's up? You called me for something?"
"I don't quite understand this part. Take a look for me."
Though a little suspicious, Bronya didn't dwell on it and quickly put her attention back on the materials.
Her lover saying weird things from time to time—she was long used to it.
"What is it? Let me see."
Pulling the laptop closer, Xander read the description in the materials, and soon nodded in understanding.
"Oh, this. It's just a bit roundabout. It's not really hard. I'll explain…"
Bronya leaned in a bit closer, and the two squeezed together to study.
This was real studying!
After breakfast, Xander gathered the whole household in the living room and brought up what had happened that morning.
"Eh? We're moving?!"
Hearing her brother, Seele exclaimed in surprise.
"There are only two months before school starts. Moving is only a matter of sooner or later for us. And St. Freya High is quite close to the company, which will make it convenient for us to work."
Arms folded, Bronya explained to Seele.
"But…"
Seele opened her mouth, and her eyes instantly grew a bit downcast.
If it's the school dorms, will everyone have to split up after moving?
I've heard the boys' dorm is far from the girls' dorm.
What will I do if I miss my brother then?
Will I have to sneak around to go see my brother?
