My Bothersome Life 62 Managing The Team

I definitely didn't say that because they complimented on how pretty I looked. It was because I was better suited for that role than taking charge of them.

"Rika Roselia Shanes." Luke answered back to me warningly.

At first, Luke started referring to me as Rika Shanes to other people. But ever since we entered middle school, he started putting Roselia as my middle name. I didn't know the reason, so three months ago I asked Sh.e.l.ly and Ellen what their full names were.

"Allan introduces me as Helena Krista Nicole." Ellen answered while indicating it was something like common sense.

"Why? Before you introduced yourself as Helena de Nicole." I asked in confusion.

Sh.e.l.ly nudged Ellen. "Ellen, Rika may not know this as she's not originally from the first district."

"I forgot, since we're always in the first district together," Ellen whined back to Sh.e.l.ly.

Since I spent more time in the first district than any other districts, it was not wrong of Ellen to forget I was a person from the third district. Even I didn't consider myself to be someone from the third district anymore.

"In the first district, once we reach a certain age, the females put their fiancé's last name as their middle name to indicate their engagement to others."

"But why?" What would be the point of that?

"Well, normally before middle school, your partner isn't always one person. It can change a number of times based on politics and the amount of mana you develop." Sh.e.l.ly explained.

What! But, I was stuck with Luke the entire time! I could've done something during the trial period to change my partner if I knew about this!

"But our partners didn't change even once!" I almost yelled.

"Well, I guess in the first academy in the first district, you always stay with one person. The families in the first academy are a special case." Ellen said as if she just discovered it.

"Well in your case, your partner would've never changed." Sh.e.l.ly tried to console me.

Even I couldn't refute that. Luke and I were matched based on our mana and I was pretty sure there was no one else who could come as close as me in terms of the amount of mana because I had an unlimited amount of mana.

Who knew it would backfire on me this way!

"Fine." I answered Luke while sulking.

It was unfortunate that the big room was separated into two with a gla.s.s wall between the team and the team managers.

And as I predicted, Luke a.s.signed me to the other side of the gla.s.s wall where I was separated from the rest of the team.

The team would submit their designs through the network and we would barely interact with them in person.

In the other side of the gla.s.s, Luke and I would evaluate the designs and give them the result whether the design would go into manufacturing or not.

By the end of the day, I was exhausted. "Are we finished yet?" I asked Luke for the nth time.

"Ye"

"Are we going back to school now?" I cut him off while thinking we were going back to dorms to relax.

"We're going back to my house." Luke answered looking confused to why we would go back to our dorms.

"Wait. Your house. Why?" Hoping that it wasn't the case. I didn't exactly have good memories from being inside Luke's house.

"We usually don't go back to the school during the a.s.signment. We just go back home like other typical workers do after they-"

"Wait. That means I don't have to go your house. I can go back home to the third district" My eyes lit up in excitement.

"Rika. Don't you remember what happened to you the last time you went to the third district?"

"But it doesn-"

"We're going back to my house."

Before I could say anything to defend myself, I was already inside Luke's house.

I ignored Luke and went to the usual room I stayed in Luke's house and slammed the door shut. If this was going to be what it was going to be like for a entire week, it was going to be worse than being in school.
