《Story of the twilights》Chapter 4: Their relationships

AZAMI'S POINT OF VIEW
Hey ever wonder why there are 24 hours a day? While each country has in broad terms historically had distinct measurements for distance, weights etc. The method of splitting the day into 24 hours, one hour into 60 minutes. In addition, one minute into 60 seconds seems to be the only one in use, and indeed to me the only one I know of. This non-metric measurement of time is far from ideal, but what other comparably accurate methods have been used historically?
The Ancient Egyptians used sundials and water clocks, as did several civilizations after them. Hourglasses were also an important time-keeping device before the invention of mechanical and pendulum clocks. The development of modern quartz watches and atomic clocks has enabled us to measure time with increasing accuracy.
Today, the standard definition for time is no longer based on the rotation of the Earth around the Sun, but on atomic time. A second is defined as 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom.
In truth, it was because 12 hours were for day. 10 hours were for night and 2 hours for the twilight. The twilight university was opened on twilight the time when the twilight says hello to day and good-bye to night that is why Twilight University was called Twilight University. I am Azami a card user with 31 cards.
Today we have a normal day a normal one with the birds chirping so silentl---
Yumiko: *WHAAAAA!!!*
I heard, should have left the silent part alone. I guess it is Yumiko-san as I said this is normal. I came to Yumiko-san's room to see her in her emergency staff. I guess the loud scream activated it. There were rats in her room, oh wait they are actually fake should have guessed.
Oh, I could say it is she doing no one else but her
Rin: Oh my! There are thousands of rats inside your room are you that messy?
The innocent Rin said, I wonder who is sponsoring her. She sure has slot of money at hand, space too.
Yumiko: R-rin! D-did you put those rodents here?
Yumiko-san asked still shaking in fear

Rin: Of course not maybe the rodents feel at home in your room
I wonder if rin-chan ever got bored of this. Ah I’m a bit bored at their bickering their just too noisy. Better, leave already.
Yuuko: Shuuya! Spar with me!
Yuuko shouted at Shuuyawho immediately summoned his bow. It seems like Yuuko has some sort of grudge against Shuuya.
Yuuko might be an archer that is a long-ranger and Shuuya might be a swordsman a short-ranger but they at most fight on a different scale mostly Shuuya loosing since Yuuko always tries to keep distance. I do not know much about the reason why they want to fight but I think it has something to do with Shuuya’s competitiveness and Yuuko’s strange personality around Rin-chan.
Honey: AZAMI!
Huh? Honey? What does she need? Does she plan to play with Yumi? Ah, now I feel pity for Yumi. Being bombarded by two individuals I wonder if she’s going to be able to change her personality?
I walked over to honey’s position
Azami: What brings you here?
Honey: I was wondering if that crazy priestess is here, is she here?
Azami: Uh… she’s currently busy dealing with Rin-chan
Honey: Rin-chan huh… I guess she can do much better than I can… Okay! I’ll come back later please tell Miko that I came! I’m sure she’ll be glad that I visited her.
Azami: …
Really? I guessshe’ll be too thrilled that she will not be living her room until the end of the day. Honey and Yumi are two different individuals that will never get along even if there would be a dire situation they will never help each other out.
Honey hates spoiled brats the most. After all honey came from a family that was at first only a low noble she was able to raise her family’s reputation through her hard work, while Yumi was born in an already flourishing clan and has been given many benefits on top of that Yumi is arrogant and have a high sense of class.
There was also the fact that Yumi is a sound artist using musical scores while honey is a wind artist that dances to give buffs.
Camilla: Azami! Care to join me for a little tea party?
Camilla asked me raising her teacup upwards.

Sighing to myself, I once again thought of the luxurious lifestyle they have been brought up in.
Azami: I would like to but I need to go somewhere
Camilla: Then maybe you could bring some with you
Azami: Thank you for your kind offer
I said, truthfully I want to stay. Shion cooking would make the best cook in the academy but I really need to practice summoning my cards to lessen my mana consumption rate.
Really now speaking of foods when it comes to cooking Shion is the best but when it comes to baking rin-chan would be unbeatable.
Camilla handed me a small bento-box…
I looked at them confused but Camilla just smiled at me while Shion spared me a glace. Hmm, those two are still concerned about someone like me. Moreover, I thought only rin-chan would care.
I moved over to the library to search if there are any clues on how to find the [Sand Card]. The sand card is a card under the jurisdiction of earth; it would greatly enhance my ability since I have high affinity over earth.
Mio: …
Azami: …
Mio: …
Azami: Good morning Mio-san
Mio: …
Mio-san silently nodded while she continues to stare… Really I should call it a glare, at Micheal who was holding on an iPod while listening to modern music.
How would I learn its modern music? Because Mio-san keeps on glaring at Micheal san who was quietly reading, something must have upset her. This is most likely Micheal’s music. Though Micheal is using a headset, I bet Mio-san could hear him with her sensitive ears.
I guess it would be better not to stay here since I might be part of the ‘injured casualties’ once their war erupts. Now where could I stay? In the garden? No, Konoha and Riko’s there better not disturb them and get in Konoha’s way. I cannot believe after 8 years Konoha still cannot break past the friendship zone.
Ah, poor Konoha. I guess my only choice would be… OUTSIDE THE LABYRINTH
*gulp*… maybe there is still some other place…
I refuse to believe I cannot find peace inside the labyrinth! That would absolutely be disastrous! Moreover, I cannot let that happen. As I walk near the unforgiving labyrinth.
(God of Earth: she meant the forest that acts as a border between the labyrinth and the main campus)
I saw…or heard using my [Soul Link] that groups of around 40 female students are coming toward the labyrinth ranging from all classes except Class A.
Spoiler : [Soul Link] is Azami’s specialized spell that can let her communicate to living yet not living vreatures like the earth, the rocks the trees etc.
Just what is going on?
Mister Stone:
Azami:
Mister Stone:
Azami:
Someone running at 1km/15min? Kinji? Using my ‘Blessing of sight’, I saw Kinji running with the pack of students ‘Mister Stone’ mentioned.
Spoiler : [Blessings] are passed skills that are very hard to find since only few even knows about them and to pass one there are 50% of not ever being able to use any blessings for the receiver
Being the only one of us 12 that can leave the labyrinth with no threat after his life he is forced to once a week go out to receive information about the main campus’ new rumors.
Rin: Azami-nee is Kinji back already?
Azami: Ah rin-chan yes Kinji came back with a pack of female...
Rin: Thanks Azami-nee!
Rin-chan vs Kinji fans
Tentative winner: Rin-chan
After a few minutes, Rin-chan who entered the 25km wide labyrinth came back with Kinji floating on an invisible flying carpet.
Winner: Rin-chan
~END~
For corrections and information
*WHAAA!!!*
Uhm… Whaaa is frightened and Kyaaa is like happy
KITSUNE
Okay this is the end of the introductory arc. Next will be ‘my’ most awaited field trip of the gods! Eh? No spoilers? Well…
“A-Akira? Is that you? Is that really you?”
He asked looking at ‘it’. On the ‘magic ball’ they both saw what has happened
“Rin, they are not worthy of your presence. Look! He even prioritized your—“
“NOT.ANOTHER.WORD!”
The young girl that would always wear a happy smile was now shedding a few drops of tears…
“Rin…“
The ‘mastermind’ muttered hoping that his beloved guest will not hear him…
That’s all I can provide since I might blow up the whole
SURPRIZE!
Hehe… I didn’t get you right. Anyway, something big will happen and it has something to do with Kinji’s latest rumor.

A Friendly Voidling
When a Creature of the Void fails to find friendship among her own kind, she instead sets her sights upon another, human-filled world. Unfortunately, humans turn out to be rather small and squishy things, resulting in a mostly accidental trail of death, destruction and madness as she embarks on her journey to finally make some friends. This is a 25k word inane short story, and makes no attempt at being serious or realistic. It's my first attempt at trying a more comedic writing style. No relation to my other stories, aside from a brief cameo. Cover bodged together with Charat Genesis. Not quite the design I had in mind, but reasonably close. Doesn't contain explicit smut, but does contain references to stuff happening off-screen. May contain traces of gore. Also eels, in varying states of distress. Posted here and scribblehub.

The Mountains Of Versailles
We all have defining moments. These are the times in our lives we often reminisce about times we were proud of, or accomplished great feats. This was not one of those times.A quick warning from me before you read! This story has broken characters. They all have flaws and none are perfect. The MC can't fight, he's only a human just 18 years old. As it is tagged with mature you should also know that suicide, while not a core theme plays a part in the story. Abuse both mental and physical as well. Also, I make some really stupid jokes. What do Earth's morals mean in a world where killing is easy? When Bran is tricked by an uninformative and unhelpful goddess he is taken to another world. How will the weak Bran survive in this world without any cheat skills, or even knowledge of the basic human language? Can he possibly find a reason to even try to stay alive in this strange new world? These are all answered in the completely original, no-holds barred story: The Mountains Of Versailles.
