Chapter 227.1. The Orienteering Begins!

-Miu’s POV-

“Yahoo!”

With her grey hair gently swaying in the spring breeze, and her sapphire-like blue eyes sparkling, Mii-chan, also known as Takano Miu, the world’s most adorable girl, shouted out enthusiastically.

In front of her stretched a green-filled forest. As spring arrived, the fresh greenery transformed the forest’s colors, and taking a deep breath, Mii-chan felt the refreshing air permeating her body.

In the distance, a mountain range extended, and the sky was cloudless, making it the perfect day for an excursion.

“Yahoo!”

Her friends around her also raised their voices and giggled cheerfully. Seeing her friends’ joyful smiles, Mii-chan couldn’t help but become happy too, and her face bloomed with a smile as bright as flowers.

I had always loved camping, even in my past life. However, I only experienced it during my childhood since my friends from my previous life weren’t the outdoorsy type, and I lacked the initiative to go solo camping.

That’s why I was excited about events like this. I loved anything that made me feel extraordinary, like going to the sea or mountains, watching fireworks, or visiting a fair.

Everyone was wearing their magic armor and carrying backpacks in a clearing in front of the forest.

“Hey, hey! I wonder if everyone has prepared properly?”

The cat girl called for their attention, and the excited Mii-chan and her friends turned to face her.

The student council president, Kohaku Suzu, known as the cat girl, with several other seniors, looked at Mii-chan’s group.

“Yes, everyone is ready. We brought plenty of snacks too!”

As the group’s leader, Mii-chan raised her hand smartly and answered with a resolute expression. Probably resolute. And Yamiyo is just mumbling it’s healing.

“Great~! From today, we’ll have a 2 night, 3 day camping trip. The teacher already explained it, so Mii-chan, can you repeat it?”

In a laid-back tone, Suzu pointed her finger, and Mii-chan nodded and recited the information the teacher had given them.

“We’ll have a survival camp inside the forest for 2 nights and 3 days! The team that defeats strong monsters and obtains high-quality magic stones will get a good score. If your magic stones are of such high quality, a high score is guaranteed for your team!”

I took a level 40 magic stone from my pocket and showed it to them. My magic stone sparkled brightly in the sunlight, filled with an abundance of mana, and worth billions.

“Great~! Why do you already have the submission-worthy magic stones?”

“To be prepared, like not getting a strike in fishing, right?”

Mii-chan tilted her head slightly in response to Suzu’s puzzled look and gave an innocent smile.

“Oh~ So that’s your intention?”

“Yeah, so we can all enjoy the camping leisurely. Banzai!”

Since we wouldn’t have to search for powerful monsters, it was common sense to prepare the submission-worthy magic stones.

Mii-chan, the diligent and good girl, had studied in advance.

She raised both hands and shouted, “Banzai!”.

“Waah, you have no sense of guilt, Mi-chan.”

Suzu says with a cheerful smile, but what is this guilt thing? It’s just preparation, preparation.

“Our teacher always tells us not to forget about the preparation of revenge, so it’s fine.”

Mii-chan replied confidently.

“Yeah, they’ve started calling you the Empress again, but why? Also, it had a dangerous intonation, right?”

My nickname from kindergarten has resurfaced in middle school, but I don’t understand its meaning.

“Why? Recently, Mii-sama has been showing off her intelligence.”

Yamiyao chimed in, touching her cheek and joining the conversation with a delighted expression.

“Yes, yes! We even started a fan club called ‘Mii-chan’s Cooking Tasting Party’. Tamamo joined the fan club too.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Kon Kon!”

Kon-chan, perched on Tamamo’s head, wagged its tail and indicated she had joined the fan club.

She showed a metallic card, indicating that it was member number 2. I wonder who number 1 is? Probably Yamiyo?

“I’m the president, you know~. Em-chan, I’m hungry~.”

No, it was Nan-chan.

Nan-chan stuck close to her back and made a quiet “kuu” sound from her stomach.

I see. I get it.

But this isn’t an ordinary fan club, huh?

“After eating the donuts that Em-chan distributed, everyone became obsessed with the food!”

“… It was shocking. It was worth stopping my nap for it.”

Hoku-chan laughed, and Sei-chan nodded with sleepy eyes.

Mii-chan had handed out homemade donuts to everyone, and it seemed to have a strong effect.

The flavor text said it was delicious enough to make your cheeks drop, but it was only a Cooking III donut, so I don’t think they would go crazy over it.

“Well then, we want to enjoy the camping leisurely! Today’s dinner plan is to make butter chicken curry!”

“Yes, thank you for the statement that nullifies the significance of this orienteering. But, Mii-chan and her friends have had many battles with monsters, so it’s just wilderness training left. Well, I guess that’s fine.”

“Ehh, Student Council President, are you okay with that?”

Another senior expressed surprise when Suzu easily allowed it.

“As a backup, I handed another one to the teacher to make sure not to forget! It’s spare, so please dispose of it when you submit it later. The teacher praised me, saying it’s admirable that I did my preparation!”

“It’s already submitted! Akura… cough, cough. Wow, as expected of Takano County. Understood. If the teacher says so, then it’s fine.”

After knowing the teacher had given their permission, the senior’s face twitched, and they fell silent.

“Nishishi, because she’s the Empress~.”

As Tamamo laughed amusingly, Mii-chan became a new press machine. Over the past 2 years, my movements have become more cunning.

It seems my efforts are paying off a little. That’s good, that’s good.
