A girl with gradient red hair tangled up with the scythe crawled around her neck had her bright orange eyes widened up in fear.

When the scythe was lightly pressed to her neck, a light streak of crimson blood hurled down leaving a slanted line on her pale skin.

The young girl holding the scythe that was slowly digging into the girl's neck trembling from terror narrowed her dull aqua coloured eyes with a harsh smile, "You know this wouldn't have happened if stayed far away from him. You should have learned to stay unnoticed in your rightful place or else-".

"This inevitable situation would have been preventable." She softly whispered while bending down to speak into the other girl's ear.

The girl that was shaking in terror did not do anything wrong. All that she had done was to fulfill her own duties, not knowing that it would attract jealousy from others. A girl who was striving to survive in her ruthless life where only the fittest people was able to live a decent life.

And this girl who was swallowed up in her journey of survival was- me.

Mr. Suzuki led me to a bright classroom with twenty students already sitting in their seats. "This is your math teacher for the next week." Mr. Suzuki announced to the class while gesturing to me.

"Hello, my name is Rika Shane but you can call me Rika since we're the same age. I hope we'll have a good time together for the next week and I will also be holding extra help sessions for people who need extra help during lunch break starting from tomorrow." I friendly said.

"Rika do you have a boyfriend?" A student asked.

"Which school in the first district did you come from?" Another student asked.

"Rika when are you free?" Another student asked eagerly.

"Unfortunately, I will not be that free during the duration I will be here." I replied.

That was all I was going to answer because I wasn't sure if Luke would allow me to say anymore.

Since I finished introducing myself, I exited the classroom and went to another classroom where it would be Luke's and my office for the next week.

I opened the door to see a printer, a bunch of desks, office supplies and more that has all been provided.

Luke was already inside trying to make lesson plans for his class. However, I was relaxed knowing that it would only take about one hour to prepare to teach a class for middle school math.

I started looking over the math workbook to find that the math here was way easier than I thought: Find X & Y.

X + Y = 10

Sigh. I learned this in kindergarten in this world! I flipped through more pages of the workbook to find that everything was extremely easy.

After drafting up a lesson plan for an hour, I finally had free time to do whatever I wanted.

What should I do now?

I went outside the office to find something to do.

"Hey! Rika!"

I looked behind to see one of the students call out my name.

"What are you doing here" I asked as classes did not seem to be finished yet.

"It's break time for five minutes."

They actually had break time here. How nice~!

"You don't have to look too surprised, I don't know how the school work where you go Rika, but this is common everywhere in the third district."

Maybe I was sent to a lower ranking school in the third district. Since I knew for sure that higher ranking schools would definitely not have breaks.

Since I didn't know my way around anyways I decided to ask, "Can you give me a tour of the school?"

"Sure!"

The student's face oddly blushed as he guided me through the school.

When we were finally near something that looked like the cafeteria, I saw something very familiar from the past life.

It was one of the convenient things ever invented in mankind for pleasure: a vending machine.

It was full of chips, jelly, drinks and the list went on.

"Rika, do you not have this in the first district? Your eyes are oddly sparkling in front of the ordinary vending machine."

"Nope, there's no such thing in the first district. Plus there's no breaks in class, and each class lasts for more than three hours." I replied with a pout.

The student looked more than just shocked. Maybe it was that unbelievable to him.

Welcome to my life.
