It's been two days since I started school. Those two days ended with just a tour of the school. It's been four years since I started going to Master's office, but the only places I went to were the headmaster's office or the training center, so it was quite fun to look around the school.

　I was just surprised when I went to the library.

'Yes, this library will be next!　This library has the largest collection of books in the kingdom, and some books are restricted, so I encourage everyone to take advantage of it!

　And Dr. Mary walks in as she speaks. Once inside.

Welcome to the library!

　And for some reason, Helen was smiling. What are you doing?

My name is Helendine Largles, and I'm the librarian here. Please let me know if you need anything, ladies and gentlemen!

　Helen says with a smile. 'Librarian?　How did you end up a librarian?　As everyone walks into the library, I ask Helen.

'What's going on, Ms. Helen?　Why are you a librarian?

Well, that's because I like books!

　I say, but I'm obviously suspicious.

'Really?'　Do you really love books and become a librarian?

　I stare at Miss Helen.

'Yes, yes it's true.'

　intently (e.g. listen)

Look, it's true.

　intently (e.g. listen)

Hey, it's the truth!

　........I'm starting to feel sorry for Helen.

"....I understand. I believe you.

　When I said that, they responded with great joy. Alexia and Helen are absolutely wonderful.

　While all this was going on, the two-day tour was over. And today.

All right, folks!　Today we're going to divide up into groups!　This grouping will be an important part of your future as a student!　Practical skills, magic, etc. as well as exercises are basically in this group or per class, so take it seriously!　There will be four of us in the group, so we should be able to do ten pairs!

　And it's the day to decide on the future squads. In this school, unless there's something extraordinary, the classes remain the same. That's why this group selection will not change for 4 years until you graduate. That's why the squad assignment at the beginning of the first year is so important.

　There are 10 pairs per class and 50 pairs per grade, and they are ranked in order. I heard that this ranking is also very important, but I haven't been told what it's for yet. I heard that the ranking system depends on the points given for each class grade.

　When I was thinking about that

Hey, Ray. Come with us.

　Dagris suggests. Next to him is Renee. Well, I thought the two of them would team up.

'Are you sure it's me?　You've only known me for about three days, and I don't even know what to do with you.

　I ask Dagris that, and he suddenly starts laughing. 'What?

'Haha, isn't that what everyone does? It's only natural that you'd want to work with Ray, who you've talked to at least a little.　So what's the plan?

　Daugliss is right. So I'll take my chances.

I'll join you. I'll go with you. Dagris, Renee, I'll be with you. It's good to have you.

　I say that and they give me a high five. I'm glad they're that happy, too.

'Okay, that's one more person to go!　Who's a good guy?

　Says Dagris, looking around the classroom. Who else is there? I suddenly became curious and looked next to it, and saw a purple-haired girl sitting by herself. She's the girl who started the brawl early in the entrance ceremony. As I recall, when she introduced herself, she said her name was Eleanora. She came from outside the country and took the test.

　I talk to Eleanora, who is sitting next to me.

"Well, Eleanora-san........right? Have you decided on a team yet?

　I ask, and Eleanora shakes her head. I can see that the two behind me are giggling.

'Would you like to join our squad?　We just had one of us open, too.

Hey, Ray.

　Sorry to both of you, but I'll proceed on my own. That's something.

''Are you sure it's me?　The two guys behind me don't seem to like it.

I don't think so. Hey, Dauglis. You said before that you'd like to partner up with someone you'd talked to. You said you'd like to team up with someone you'd talked to at least once. Well, now that we've had a little chat, you're going to want to team up with one of them.

　I said with a chuckle, and Dauglis said

'Oh, for goodness sake, that's something!　It's good to see you, Eleanora!　I think you've forgotten my name, so I'm going to tell you, it's Dagris!

Yeah. It's a good thing we're in a relationship. I'm Renee. Nice to meet you.

　And they're both smiling. Good guys.

"Thanks, both of you. So, my name's Ravert Lanwalker. It's a pleasure to meet you.

　We each say hello. Then Eleanora.

Thank you. My name is Eleanora. Those closest to me will call me Elea. It's a pleasure to meet you.

　I say with a smile. Come to think of it, I've never seen you smile before.

　About ten minutes after we were assigned, it seems everyone else has been assigned to their own team.

Okay. Well, I guess we've all decided on a team. Then please write the names of your team members on the form I'll give you now. That completes your registration. Oh, and the name to be written at the top is the squad leader, please!

　It's true that if you have a squad, you have to decide on the leader of one of them, but I didn't say that, Miss Mary. When the other students pointed that out to me.

Oh, what?　Didn't I tell you?　Hahahaha.

　I try to fool them by laughing at them. Everyone stares at me.

I'm sorry!

　I apologize. After that, he explained that a squad leader, as the name implies, is the leader of a squad and is in charge of giving instructions to each squad member. I've been told that he has to give instructions to each team member during training. The instructions from the teacher are sometimes passed through the squad leader, which is an important role. Mary-sensei forgot some important things.

　And then we get a piece of paper from Mary-sensei, we get into a circle and think about it.

Who will be the squad leader then?

　I'll ask him.

Hmm?　That's a lay, of course. What are you talking about?

　Douglis asks me. And you put my name on a piece of paper...!

'Hey!　What did I write?!

'Listen. This kind of thing is automatically done by a high ranking aristocrat. Me and Rayne are commoners and Elea... I don't know, but anyway, Ray is the only nobleman in this group.

　And Dagris finishes writing on the paper. If you say so, you're right.

'We're both good, right?'

I'm good.

I'm good, too.

　And Dagris looks at me with a smile. Huh, I guess I don't have a choice.

''Well okay. I'll be the squad leader for now, but you guys can help me out too, right?

Of course!

　After that, I will write everyone's name and submit it to Miss Mary.

''Yes sir. I have indeed received it. Please do your best from now on Captain Ray, please do your best from now on. This is the squad leader's batch.

　And a batch to be handed over. You have to wear these things. It has the coat of arms of this country on it. I'm going to put it on my chest.

"So, you've all decided. You're all going to be working together for the rest of your lives!　Build up your trust!　So let's start off by announcing the first event!　That's because we will be having a team competition next week. I'll explain the rules etc. in due course, but the last remaining team out of 10 teams wins. Please check in with me during the week to see who can do what, including coordination, etc.!　So, we're ending homeroom!　Good luck with your classroom studies today!

　And Miss Mary walks out of the classroom. Team competition. I'm looking forward to it.
