Just as the atmosphere became tense, the white-haired girl suddenly snorted with pride, which made Sunset Shimmer feel bewildered.
"It seems you didn't do your homework before enrolling; you don't know the greatest and most omnipotent existence in this school! Me, Trixie!"
Looking at Trixie, who a second ago seemed like she was here to pick a fight, and now was sitting next to Sunset Shimmer, leaning against the statue as if they were old friends.
"New student, tell me your name, otherwise I'll just have to call you 'Hey'."
"...Sunset Shimmer."
Sunset Shimmer frowned and moved a little further away, trying not to be too obvious.
Although this girl named Trixie gave the impression of being quite flamboyant, at least she didn't seem mean-spirited. That was much better than the Sunset Shimmer of the past, so Sunset Shimmer could tolerate her for now.
"So what do you want?"
Sunset Shimmer didn't think Trixie was the kind of kind-hearted person who would come to keep her company just because she saw her alone, but Sunset Shimmer couldn't guess her intentions.
After all, for an old student to seek out a new student with a purpose, apart from extortion, Sunset Shimmer couldn't think of anything else.
"You only recently came to this town, right? No wonder you're a bit out of the loop."
Trixie looked Sunset Shimmer up and down, confirming that she had never seen her around here before.
"I, The Great and Omnipotent Cui Ke Xi, am preparing to host a grand magic performance at this high school!"
"Magic? Doesn't this world lack such things?"
Seeing the surprised expression on Sunset Shimmer's face, Trixie felt even more pleased, mentally labeling this Sunset Shimmer, who hadn't even seen a magic trick before, as a country bumpkin.
"The word 'impossible' does not exist in the dictionary of The Great and Omnipotent Cui Ke Xi! If you are interested, I can make an exception and let you be my magic assistant."
"Oh... so you meant magic tricks..."
"What else did you think I was? 'Magical Pretty Girl'?"
Under Trixie's gaze, which seemed to be looking at a weirdo, Sunset Shimmer awkwardly looked away.
"I just didn't expect you to be a magician, after all, you don't look that old... Speaking of which, why do you want to perform magic at school?"
"That's a long story."
Trixie picked up a carrot from Sunset Shimmer's salad, took a bite, and said while chewing.
"Last year's Friendship Games, Canterlot High School lost to Crystal Prep Academy again. Seriously, our school has never won such an inter-school competition once. I don't know why the principal and the others insist on participating; is it just to highlight how great the students at Crystal Prep Academy are?"
"You're new to this school, so you probably haven't felt it. After losing for several years in a row, the atmosphere at Canterlot High School is very depressed, so at this time, someone needs to stand up and boost morale again!"
"Me! The Great and Omnipotent Cui Ke Xi! Will save this school with a grand magic performance!"
And by the way, I can also campaign for votes for this year's Autumn Formal Princess selection.
During last year's selection, she lost by a narrow margin to that girl named Rarity, but this year is different.
Heaven's timing! Geographical advantage! As long as she can recruit this girl named Sunset Shimmer, who looks very capable, she will have gathered the condition of human unity!
The laws of victory are almost in her hands; Trixie can't even imagine how she could lose!
However, the Autumn Formal Princess is just a stepping stone to her success; it's not Trixie's ultimate goal. Her true goal is... to get her name in the school yearbook! She has even thought of the title, and that is—
The greatest! Most omnipotent student at Canterlot High School! Trixie!
Sunset Shimmer looked confusedly at Trixie, who had inexplicably gotten fired up. She hesitated for a moment, then raised her hand to interrupt her mental climax:
"No offense, but let me ask. I've heard of Crystal Prep Academy, but what is the Friendship Games?"
