Reborn in another world as a Hermaphrodite

With the entire class waiting for Justin, everyone was starting to get a little impatient.

But still, nobody dared to move an inch, not wanting to repeat the same mistake as the person earlier.

Suddenly, a layer of ice covered Justin's entire body, freezing him in place and kicking him out of his meditation.

"This is what happens when someone tries to over-extend themselves. If I let go of this ice right now, his blood will boil and burn him alive."

As Amelia chanted something beneath her breath quietly, the ice eventually disappeared, allowing Justin to move again.

"Sorry, Miss Amelia. I shouldn't have rushed it." Justin apologized, standing up before bowing right before her.

"It's fine. Just remember to write a report for Miss Amy next week. Now, with the meditation over, let's go back to learning about spells."

After a few more hours of lecture, the day was finally over as Amelia dismissed everyone from class.

But before anyone could leave, she assigned one homework for everyone.

"Try to meditate in your free time, but do not overdo it. If you can't control yourself, have a higher-level mage watch over you."

As Amelia left the classroom, people quickly started leaving the class right after.

Alex quickly started packing up, getting ready to go back home as well. But he was unfortunately stopped by no other than his own sister.

"Alex! Come over here!"

Sophia excitedly waved her arms in the back, with Mary and her four new friends next to her.

"What? I want to go home and read my book already."

"Come on, Alex. Are you still jealous of your sister's meditation time?" Evelyn asked curiously after noticing his irritated tone.

"N-No... I just want to go back home to finish up with the textbook." Alex shyly replied, realizing how childish he sounded earlier.

Sophia didn't mind it as she patted Alex on the shoulder before giving him a suggestion that he couldn't refuse.

"Alex, don't you want to see what the school dorms are like? You sure you want to go home so early already?"

Alex fell into silence for a second before nodding in agreement.

"I... I do."

"Then let's go! Camille lead the way!"

---

The three of them quickly followed the four who had been forming together for three months since school started.

As they walked down the stairs out of the building, they began heading in the opposite direction of the residential area where Alex live.

After walking for a bit, they finally saw ten different apartment buildings right before their eyes.

Two of them were super close to each other, and the other eight were paired up and spread out in the distance.

"We live in the blue and white one over here... Usually, each building is meant for one level of mages."

Camille explained as she pointed at the closest one, which was ten stories tall with another apartment right next to it.

"The one on the left over there is the boy's dorm. And on the right is the girl's dorm that we live in."

Both dorms were covered with a stone fence with the height of a fully grown adult as an outside parameter and an iron gate at the entrance.

As the seven of them approached the girl's dorm, they were immediately stopped by an old lady who looked to be in her sixties.

"No male after six o'clock." The old lady warned before letting them go.

"Of course, ma'am. We'll have him out before then." Camille replied before leading them past the entrance.

"Wow... This park is so big and beautiful," Mary murmured, unable to believe how beautiful the inside looked past the stone fence.

"Yeah, but you'll think it's pretty boring after you live here for a while... Anyway, let's head inside."

Luna took charge this time, heading into the porch of the apartment before taking out her ID card.

With a scan, the door opened, allowing them to go inside before it closed on its own.

As the three stepped inside, they couldn't believe how spacious it was.

The main lobby was almost double the size of their house, with three elevators on the side.

"It feels a little empty, doesn't it?" Chloe commented as she pressed the elevator button.

"A little bit," Sophia replied as the spacious feeling was soon replaced by a feeling of void.

After waiting for a bit, the elevator finally came down.

Several girls exited the elevator before the seven of them headed inside.

"I wonder how this elevator works..." Alex murmured as he imagined nothing was pulling this thing up mechanically.

"It's just an elevation magic on the bottom of this elevator," Luna replied as she pressed the eighth floor.

"Is there no stairs at all?" Alex curiously asked.

"Why would there be a stair? The elevator is almost instant."

As soon as Luna finished speaking, they were already on the eighth floor as the door opened.

Alex thought for a second, then quickly realized that his concern about needing a fire exit was practically useless in this magical world.

After walking past four different rooms, they finally stop at 805.

"Okay, you guys ready to see our dorm rooms?" Camille asked as she put her key into the door.

Slowly, Camille pulls the door open, revealing the living room before their eyes.

"Wow, it look so comfortable in here... Sofa!"

Mary excitedly jumped onto the bluffy sofa before diving face-first into it as the other two followed the other four, examining the dorm.

"This place is pretty big," Alex commented as the dorm looked heavily decorated with all kinds of styles.

The left was full of plants and wooden furniture, while the right was full of furniture that looked super soft and had fur.

Meanwhile, the open kitchen on the back was filled with unwashed utensils, plates, pans, and pots stacking up.

"Yeah, it's pretty big. It's actually an eight-person dorm, but we only have four people to fill in.

If you guys want, you can live here too... Except for Alex, of course." Evelyn replied as she threw out the invite.

"Um, I need to talk to Mom first," Sophia replied, with Mary nodding in agreement as she finally got out of the sofa.

"That's fine... Actually, you guys live in the school, too, right?" Evelyn curiously asked.

"Yeah... Our mom has a house in the residential area——"

"You mean the teacher's area," Luna added.

"I don't think my mom is a teacher, though... She never said she was a teacher a single time." Sophia argued.

"Really? Then maybe your mom's teacher is in a pretty high position to give her a house.

Even my dad, who has worked here for a few years now, still doesn't have a house."

Luna and Evelyn both suddenly felt a little bit jealous, as having an independent house sounded like a luxury in the school.

After standing in the living room for a while, the four finally brought the three to the bedroom.

To their surprise, the bedroom had four bunk beds on each side of the wall, with eight beds in total.

"Damn, this bed looks so soft," Alex murmured as he watched Chloe bring Mary to sit on one of them.

"Well, it's a bed made out of blue goose feathers... Anyway, let's go bring you guys to the bathroom." Evelynn replied.

The three followed the four out of the bedroom before walking into the bathroom.

To their surprise again, there were only two bathrooms.

The first one was several curtained-off shower areas and four bathtubs with mirrors and sinks.

The second one, meanwhile, was fully sealed stalls with a toilet inside and a row of sinks outside.

"That's our dorm. So what do you guys think?" Evelyn curiously asked as they headed back to the living room.

"I think it's pretty neat... Although it might feel a little crowded if it really becomes full for eight people." Sophia replied.

"I think so too..." Mary added.

"Alex, what do you think?" Luna curiously asked after noticing him being silent the whole time.

"I think it's fine... But I don't like this balcony. Does it really have to be this tall?" Alex complained.

"Well, I'm sure you'll grow past it in a year or two," Luna commented as almost everyone was tall enough to see over the balcony.

Except for Alex, who was just slightly too short, and Mary, who was nowhere near close.

"Hey, Sophia, since you guys live in the school as well, can we visit your house?" Camille suddenly asked.

"I might need to ask Mom first. I'm not sure if my mom wants visitors——"

"Come on, Alex, your mom would say yes to her daughter's classmate visiting her home, right?"

Alex slowly nodded in agreement as Camille's 'gentle' pat almost dislocated his shoulder.

"Yay! Let's go give our house a tour!"

Mary immediately jumped to the front, getting ready to guide her four new friends to their house.
