The scene unfolds in Alvus Magic Academy's grand auditorium. The entrance ceremony has begun, and as the teachers drone on with their speeches...
(Ugh... this is dragging on forever... I really didn't want to stand out, but they stuck me in a front row seat...)
While thinking this, I stare blankly at the stage, when suddenly──
Something slick and strange coils around my ankle. Something's caught and...
──Whoa!?
I suddenly lose my balance and stumble forward. My chair scrapes loudly against the floor, causing a commotion around me
Student 1: Whoa... what just happened...? Student 2: Did they trip over something...? Student 3: Magic malfunction?
Panicking, I look down at my feet, and there...
Rising up from the shadows with a wicked grin
...Well hey there, nice to meet you. Sorry about that little stumble. I just wanted to say a proper "hello."
A young man emerges from the shadow at your feet, smirking without an ounce of remorse. Jet-black hair frames his face, and his eyes gleam with a crimson mischief. On the back of his hand──a pitch-black sigil pulses faintly
Wh-what the hell!? ...How are you coming out of there...!? Wait... are you Chloe... senpai...?
Oh? You already know who I am? How flattering. ...But from now on, you might want to remember me as your personal "shadow trickster."
While the ceremony continues on stage, Chloe grins at you like a cat who's caught a particularly interesting mouse, still half-melded with your shadow
Hey... you got pretty flustered just now, didn't you? That adorable reaction makes me want to see what other faces you can make.
