Chapter 669: Visitors From All Around The World



The Yukihime Club Festival received visitors from all over the city, and some of them even came from far away.

Maria, Lily, Jason, Bai Chum, Yom Sol-Mi, and Daniel were college students at Bluecorn State University. As a renowned university and the principal college in Bluecorn State, Bluecorn College receives students from all over the country and beyond every year.

Maria and the other five had indeed come from other places to study and live at Elffire City, the six of them had started studying at the Bluecorn University last year, so they had been living in Elffire City for over a year already. During the last year, the six of them developed a tight and close bond of friendship. So, after seeing the ads, they decided to enjoy their free Saturday night to see how a high school festival operated in Elffire City. It was their first time visiting an event like this in Elffire City, and they were amazed by it.

Lily and Jason were originally from the Bald Eagle Country, Maria was from Auriverde, Bai Chun was from Pangu, Yom Sol-Mi was from K-Seongguk, and Daniel was from a small town in the northern part of the Sakura Abode Country.

All in all, in this group of six friends, five of them were foreigners, and they had come to Sakura Abode because everyone in the world knew that Sakurean universities were the best in the world, and because of this, everyone wanted to study there. So, the competition for foreigners to study there was extremely brutal as there were limited spots reserved for foreigners. Consequently, the five of them would have been extremely intelligent if they managed to study at Bluecorn University. And even Daniel, who was Sakurean also faced fierce competition to manage to study there as well.

Every one of them had come from different places in the world.

For those who didn't know, Auriverde was a country in the Tropicallia Continent, that had in its borders one the most hazzard and dangerous places in the world, the Greenbane Jungle. (The culture of this country bore a resemblance to Brasil).

While K-Seongguk was a country neighboring Pangu in the Tori Continent. (This country bore a resemblance to South Korea).

As the six friends from Bluecorn State University strolled onto the Yukihime High School campus, the vibrant atmosphere of the festival immediately captured their senses. The sky was a deep indigo, punctuated by the twinkling of stars, and the school grounds were bathed in the warm glow of lanterns and string lights. The air was filled with the tantalizing aroma of sizzling food, the cheerful sounds of laughter and chatter, and the occasional burst of music from various club stalls. It was hard to believe that a high school could pull off such a grand

event.

"Can you believe this is a high school festival?" Maria, the group's unofficial leader,

remarked with wide eyes. She had long, dark hair that cascaded over her shoulders, and her enthusiasm was contagious.

"Yeah, it's like a full-blown carnival," Bai Chum agreed, adjusting his glasses as he scanned the bustling scene. A tall, lanky guy with a love for all things tech, Bai Chum was already calculating the number of attractions they could hit before the night was over.

"I say we start with food," Jason suggested, his stomach rumbling audibly. The broad- shouldered athlete of the group, Jason was always ready to eat, and the delicious smells wafting through the air were driving him crazy.

"For you, milady," he said in a mock-serious tone, making everyone laugh.

Maria accepted the plushie with a smile. "You're too kind, sir."

Feeling lucky, the friends continued to play more games, from shooting galleries to balloon darts. Sol-Mi won a colorful wind chime at one of the stalls, and Lily snagged a small but cute keychain shaped like a cat. Jason, ever the competitor, managed to win a basketball at one of the sports-themed games, much to his delight.

With their arms full of prizes and their hearts light with joy, the group decided to explore the rest of the festival. They wandered through the various club stalls, each one offering something unique. There was handcrafted jewelry, personalized calligraphy, and even a booth where students were demonstrating traditional tea ceremonies.

At one point, they stumbled upon a stall run by the school's Art Club, the Outdoor Art Gallery. Sol-Mi was immediately drawn to the beautiful paintings and sketches on display. She chatted with the students, exchanging ideas and complimenting their work. Before they left, Sol-Mi purchased a small watercolor painting that reminded her of the tranquil scenery of

their university campus.

As they continued their stroll, the group noticed that the decorations around the campus had become even more enchanting. Lanterns hung from trees, casting a soft, golden glow over the pathways. Fairy lights twinkled like stars above their heads, creating a magical atmosphere that was straight out of a fairy tale.

"Wow, they really know how to set the mood," Lily said, her voice filled with awe.

"It's like something out of a movie," Jason added, looking around in amazement. The friends agreed that the Yukihime High School festival was unlike anything they had ever experienced. They were particularly impressed by how well-organized everything was. The student council had clearly put a lot of effort into making sure the festival ran smoothly, and it showed in every detail.

As they walked, they discussed what they should do next. The options were endless, from more food stalls to live performances, but one attraction, in particular, caught their eye-the Haunted Forest: Kimodameshi.

"That sounds like fun," Daniel said, a mischievous grin spreading across his face. "Who's up for a little scare?"

"I don't know..." Lily hesitated, looking a bit nervous. She was known for her love of cute and sweet things, not horror.

"Come on, Lil," Maria coaxed. "It'll be fun! We can all stick together. Plus, think of the stories we'll have to tell afterward!"

Reluctantly, Lily agreed, and the group made their way toward the entrance of the Haunted Forest. The path leading to it was lined with flickering lanterns, and as they approached, they could hear eerie sounds coming from within. The atmosphere was thick with anticipation, and even those who claimed not to be scared felt a twinge of nervousness. "Alright, everyone ready?" Bai-Chum asked as they gathered at the entrance. He adjusted his glasses, trying to appear brave, though his heart was racing with excitement.

"As ready as I'll ever be," Sol-Mi replied, clutching her new painting close to her chest. With a mix of excitement and trepidation, the six friends took a deep breath and stepped into the Haunted Forest, ready to face whatever scares lay ahead.
