"Miss Vallière, you have to visualize vividly the metal that you wish to transmute them into." Giving a cute little nod, Louise waved her wand. She had never looked as adorable as in that instant when she pursed her lips to begin chanting the incantation - it was almost otherworldly. Even knowing her true personality, Saito was momentarily enamoured. In the morning sunshine streaming in from the window, Louise's strawberry-blonde hair sparkled enchantingly. Her hazel eyes shown like jewels, and her skin was a flawless white. Her sculpted nose was befitting of nobility. If only her breasts were more filled out, she'd be perfect - almost too good. But no matter how cute she is, that personality of hers is a real pitfall, Saito lamented. But as he sat there pondering, the students sitting in front of him had for some reason hidden under their chairs. Don't they see how cute Louise is? Still, she doesn't seem to be very popular. Rather, she gets called 'the Zero' and made fun of. Just looking around here, there aren't any girls nearly as cute. Only Kirche rivals her in looks. Closing her eyes, Louise uttered a short rune and flourished her wand. The pebbles on the desk promptly exploded. Louise and Chevreuse caught the blast full-on and were thrown against the blackboard, as people screamed. Frightened familiars added to the chaos. Kirche's salamander suddenly woke from its sleep and stood up on its hind legs, breathing a jet of flame. A manticore burst into flight and smashed through a window to escape. Through the hole, the giant snake that had been peeking in earlier slithered in and swallowed someone's raven. The classroom was in pandemonium. Kirche stood up and pointed a finger at Louise. "That's why I told you not to let her do it!" "Jeez, Vallière! Save us some grief and just quit school already!" "My Lucky got eaten by a snake! Lucky!" Saito stared in shock. Mrs. Chevreuse lay on the floor; judging by her occasional twitching, she wasn't dead. A soot-blackened Louise rose slowly. She was a miserable sight to behold. Her torn blouse revealed a slender shoulder, and her panties could be seen beneath her ripped skirt. Still, what an amazing girl. She didn't seem at all fazed by the discord in the room. She pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the soot off her face. "Looks like I messed up a little..." she said, in a weak voice. Of course, that elicited a vehement response from the other students. "That wasn't 'a little!', Louise the Zero!" "Your success rate is always ZERO!" Saito finally understood why Louise was called "the Zero."
