It was just after meeting Alice that the childhood Tesfia recognized everything and regretted what she had done.
　It was the first time she had ever had a friend she could truly call a friend. But friendships often come to a head after the fact.
　Thinking back on it now, can you say that it was inevitable?

　Alice didn't tell her off, but by being with Alice, Tesfia was able to regain her normal thinking. He was able to make her realize it.

　When Froese later learned of this fact, he wrote a letter of apology for the annulment of the marriage, but he never received a formal reply. From then on, the Favell family refused to meet with the Umluina family.
　Fortunately, the only information between the nobles is the exchange of data as business communication. By then, it could be said that the Fèvel family was also able to take on the roles of the three major nobles.

　Of course, Tesfia knows that this blunder led to the transfer of some of the lands and rights owned by the Fèvel family. Although Froese has retired from the army, it is certain that he was hit with even more intense work than before.
　Tesfia felt deeply sorry for her mother, who never showed such hardship on her face. It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　That's why Tesfia tried to make up for it by honing her magic skills.
　It was a failure caused by the weakness of my own heart, so I must become stronger in both magic and heart - and so I put myself into magic as I went.

　At first, that voice flickering in my brain was uncomfortable, but time solved it.


　That's why his intentions, which appeared now, were understood by Tesfia.
　It must be a continuation of that time, she thought.


　♢ ♢ ♢


　Tesfia's face had an exhausted look on it as she remembered after she finished telling the whole story after scratching the whole thing out in a few minutes.
　In fact, she said she had forgotten about it, to the point where she could say that she had completely forgotten about it until she met Ayl again.

　Ars was walking silently down the corridor, sorting through her brain. The hustle and bustle caused by the school festival was blocked by a wall of consciousness.

　It's a good idea to have a good time with them. It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what to expect.
　It's a good thing that she's the one who should be the one to break the ice. It's not only for her sake, but also for the sake of Ars.
　But that being the case, the wall that stands in the way of that was too big. It was beyond her ability to cross.

　It was still too early, too early to test the ordeal, and Tesfia might end up throwing her entire life away. And if even that choice was due to a repainted thought that wasn't his own will, then this kind of unreasonable thing wouldn't happen so quickly.

　It's a good idea to feel resentment even if it was common knowledge in the aristocratic society. If this is the intention of the Favre family, then Ars won't get involved strongly.
　But from what I've heard, the Favre family is probably backing out. It's a good idea to have a good time with them.
　If a student is involved in it, Ars also doesn't have to refrain from it.

　I don't know if he has the talent to be his own leader, though.

(Dropping out of that one would be painful.)

　Like the time I've been devoting to myself, the rate at which Tesfia and Alice have grown is definitely a gem if I'm being honest.
　It's only recently that I've noticed that.
　Up until now, these girls were simply not ordinary people.

　It is also true that their growth in the future will help Ars and is a source of pleasure for them. Of course, there is no way for him to be aware of this.

　It's a simple matter of being comfortable with school life, which is surely peaceful and barren, but in truth, it's a simple matter of being comfortable.
　There's Loki, Tesfia and Alice, and Felinella. That's all normal life was a breath of fresh air to him.

　There was no way that this life, where none of them were missing, could be what he wanted. It should have been a relationship that was built up as an outcome on the tracks that had been addressed - a sweetness that he now felt he would miss.
　Ars lightly rubbed the section and regained his spirits.

'I still want to be strong, huh?'

　Ars nodded without interrupting Tesfia, who assured him so in the infirmary. Surely she knows that the way of strength is more than just magic.
　Right now, Tesfia is growing. Her mind and body are all slowly growing. For that reason, she came looking back at me with straight eyes, saying that she can't leave the academy as a place of study.


　If you leave the rest to Alice, it will be fine.
　The guards also got permission from Illumina without a second thought. It seems that the arrival of Umm Luyna had already been conveyed to them.　
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for, but you can't do much more than relieve your guard.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
　Illumina was also an aristocrat. In other words, is the reputation of Ummulina among the nobles spreading?


　It's a good idea to have a good time with them. Of course, he had no intention of backing down.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.
　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one. Of course, this floor alone has a reasonable amount of space, but most of the rooms are used as reception rooms.

　All of the rooms are equipped with counter-intelligence measures, so there is more space between them than necessary. The chalk wallpaper seemed to glow in its own right, but it made the students extra conscious of it as a sacred place to be awed.
　It didn't matter to the familiar Ars.

　Each of the five reception rooms is assigned a room number. Among them, a plate with the number 1 on it is lit up. This indicates that the room is in use.
　The other reception rooms are all off, so I took a guess.

　Just as Ars set his sights on it, the door unexpectedly opened first and a woman came out from inside.

''I didn't expect the chancellor to come out...''

　It was Ars who spoke up first.
　But as Sisti knew, she slowly turned her tired eyes to Ars. He was hunched over mindlessly, looking as if something was resting on his shoulders.
　It's a good thing that you don't have to look at it.

　Sisti opens her eyes quizzically, as if she were her parent's enemy.

''You little troublemaker!

　The soundproofing was supposed to be perfect, but since they were in front of the door, they tried to raise the volume of their voices to make them sound more weighted and avoided it. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
　However, for once - or rather, he is not responsible for this, as usual.

''This time it's the Favell family's problem. Besides, it's the chancellor who told her to guide her, right?　There's nothing unnatural about me barging in on the issues surrounding Fear, is there?
'Ugh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.'
A good deed is a good deed, and we haven't gotten into trouble yet.
Enough trouble!　We've got a case!　The first of the three noblemen, you understand?
Yes, of course.
Haha - no more trouble, really.

　Sisti held her forehead in her hand.
　It's a sight that makes me feel dizzy.

　He stumbles a few steps closer and leans against the wall.
　It was a bit theatrical, but there was no doubt it was annoying.

　You're not going to be bothered by it.

''The academy won't be bothered. And even though the chancellor can't interfere in private affairs, it wouldn't be fun for our students to be voluntarily expelled from the school against their will, would it?
"--!　That's the thing, hey.

　It's a good thing that you can't tell what's going on in your heart from the expression on Sisti's face, but it's hard to approve of it.
　That's because Sisti's personal feelings and position led to conflicting conclusions, so she should not have been able to give an immediate answer.

　However--.

''Are you sure you won't leave a grudge against the Academy?''

　Suddenly, Ars, who was grabbed by both shoulders with a gasp, looked at those powerful hands in turn before shifting his gaze to be drawn to the beautiful face directly in front of him.

''........You're overreacting, that.
'No, not even a grudge. Just remember well, Umluina has gained that much strength.
But still.
I will personally help you as much as I can if you'll do it somewhere else first.
Thank you. In that case, feel free.
'What!　A little restraint, okay?
His three big heads are pathetic, sir.
"I'm a state employee, too. I'm a public servant. You can't do anything with your arms alone at this point. It's hard to see the world but that doesn't mean it's okay for Tesfia-san to be expelled from school.
Yeah, it's a bit of a relief to hear that.

　Sisti puffed out her cheeks and crossed her arms in response to Ars, who gave her a bad smile.

It's a good idea to have a good time with them. Now, go ahead and get going.

　After being slapped on the back with a bash, Ars frowned and then stepped on the foot bellows.

　I'm going to be facing this without having to be told, but before that, Ars put his hand on the knob and only looked back at his face.

'There's no such thing as a strike.

　Without letting the sound of the door open and close with firm determination, Ars walked inside the room.

　Sure enough, after the door closed with a click, Sisti turned on her heel. Is her pacing somewhat bouncy? No, it was actually the mood that was bouncing.
　I know it's inappropriate, I know it's inappropriate, even for myself. But even so, Sisti was happy that she was wrong.

'What, you've changed properly.

　Sisti's bouncy voice fluttered to the sky as she made her way to her room in the empty hallway as if she was being frightened.

　Sisti felt like she could do anything now. It was as if she was as young as she was when she was active.
　Can you say that you were hit by youthfulness?
　He may be regarded as a heretic because he is not bound by any restrictions and can act as he pleases. Although he is a member of the military, he has no regard for the national interest.

　But this was not only because of his youth, but also because of the way he carried himself. Although it is a change and gives the appearance of danger, Ars has the experience and knowledge to judge it.
　Of course, it could also be called a youthful mistake.

　But Sisti only envied him this time. I wanted to be inspired.
　Maybe it was time to try to be a little foolish. In times like these, there are only a few people who are able to act on what they think is right, with reason and instinct in unison.

　Sisti is one of those people who is trying to be one of the few.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with your friends.

"Let's ruffle a few feathers, shall we?

　He held up one finger and held it up under his bloody lips - the gallic lip gutter - and then he held it up.

　But after a few steps and a pitter-patter stop, Sisti also voiced her concern. Not that he could blame her for it, whether it was self-defense or not.

'I'm sure the Governor can handle it if it happens. And you owe him something.
