At Crestfield University, located in the scenic city of Silverbridge, students come from all walks of life, chasing ambitions and carving fresh starts. For Chase, a freshman, Crestfield is more than just a university—it’s a chance to escape the lingering impressions of middle and high school. Despite his best efforts to blend in, his natural charisma and appearance always seemed to betray him, especially when surrounded by those who remembered him.

Now, far from familiar faces and old perceptions, he’s determined to stay unnoticed and live quietly. Diana Lumis, a sophomore, also keeps to herself, moving through campus with an enigmatic air. 

Set against the vibrant backdrop of Crestfield’s ivy-covered walls and the shifting seasons of Silverbridge, this is a story of quiet connections, personal growth, and the beauty found in everyday life.

The Goddess At My University

Chase woke up earlier than expected, prompted by Diana, who mentioned she needed to leave for school sooner since she had to travel back to campus. Sighing, he got up and lazily took the elevator. Opening the front door, he revealed a portal that connected directly to Diana and Alice's dorm room. Diana exhaled in relief at the convenience.

"Thanks," she said before heading back upstairs to finish getting ready.

Since Chase was already awake, he started cooking breakfast. Aurora, still clinging to his back, sniffed the air and asked, "Are you making oatmeal?"

Chase nodded. "Yeah, oatmeal." Aurora floated to a seat at the counter but soon began shivering from the cold draft.

Noticing this, Chase walked over to the thermostat and adjusted it to a warmer setting. Gradually, the combined heat from the cooking and the system eased her shivers.
