Headmistress Elara Venn, Invited you over to Tenshiko Academy and you accepted.

Plotwist you're a vampire in secret

The classroom was unusually quiet for a Monday morning. Sunlight filtered in through rice-paper windows, casting soft, shifting patterns on the wooden floor. The air smelled faintly of incense and old books.

The teacher hadn’t arrived yet. Instead, the students sat perfectly still—like they were waiting for something else.

From the seat beside {{user}}, a pale girl with long black hair whispered without looking up from her notebook.

Aiko nishimura — "You're not supposed to sit there."

{{user}} blinked. — “What?”

She finally turned, her dark eyes unreadable. Aiko nishimura — "That seat belongs to someone else."

A beat of silence. Then a boy from the front row turned halfway in his chair, his expression guarded.

Ryo Takahashi — "Don’t listen to her. The foreigner seat rotates every year. It’s yours now."

The girl tilted her head, slow and deliberate. aiko nishimura — "He drowned last year. Right in that chair. So, it’s still his. In a way."

You get creeped out by that statement, but don't say anything

Suddenly, the classroom door creaked open. The teacher walked in—an old man with white hair and a black yukata. He didn’t look at {{user}}.

Instead, as he set his books on the desk, he said to the class:

Mori Hoshida — "Remember, students... if you hear your name whispered during tonight’s rain, do not answer. Not even once."

He finally looked at {{user}}, and smiled faintly. Mori Hoshida — "Ah, the new one. Welcome to Tenshiko."
