633.
The cold winter had passed, and the streets were filled with the warm spirit of spring.
Kurazhu Street, facing Lumern’s entrance ceremony, was also full of vitality.
“Look at this~ Is this a uniform tailored at Blessriger?”
“Huh? Really?”
Two female students who appeared to be from the west were chatting in front of 【Blessriger】.
Blessriger was one of the tailor shops that specialized in making Lumern uniforms.
It was considered the finest luxury brand among Lumern students.
“Wow! How nice!”
“Dad bought it for me as an entrance gift with great determination!”
“Wow! I’m so jealous! He said he’d buy me one when I enter the second semester!”
“Oh my? You. But your uniform is good enough too, isn’t it?”
“Not as much as Blessriger though.”
While the two female students were chattering excitedly.
“Really? You’re giving me your uniform?”
“Yeah. As you know, Lumern uniforms are uselessly damn expensive, right? Commoners like you and me would break our backs. I have to get a new one tailored anyway, so I’ll give it to you while I’m at it. It’s not a good brand though.”
“No! This is good enough for me! Thank you, senior! Please take care of me this year too!”
The conversation from across the street reached the ears of the two girls, who had sensitive hearing befitting Lumern entrance students.
A slight sneer appeared on the lips of the two girls who heard the story.
“I don’t know who they are, but they seem like seniors, right?”
“Yeah. But they seem to be commoner seniors. Passing down uniforms and then wearing them. They don’t even know it’s embarrassing and talk about it so loudly. Ugh! Don’t those seniors seem to be bringing shame to the school?”
It was when the two girls were whispering and giggling quietly.
“You seem to have lost your fear.”
A cold sneer was heard from behind them.
At that voice, the two new students froze stiff.
When they turned around in panic, there stood a female student with long, curly silver hair.
The faces of the two new students turned pale.
‘Eliza Herginn!’
‘3rd year!’
Even though they were from the same Lumern, it was a grade that the two people, who were still just new students, couldn’t dare to look at.
Moreover, the opponent was none other than Eliza Herginn.
A hero candidate with worldwide fame, called the Golden Generation!
She was someone who would make them shrink even if they just met her on the street, but they had been caught talking behind a senior’s back.
“Mere new students dare to mock seniors?”
“Eek?!”
“And the acting student council president and 2nd year representative at that?”
At Eliza’s extremely cold voice, the faces of the two female students turned not just pale but blue.
The two people knew well who the acting student council president and 2nd year representative were.
Cal Thomas and Luke Elda.
Cal Thomas, who had already reached the position of hero, was someone new students could hardly dare to look at.
But the bigger problem was that Cal was best friends with Leo, Chelsea, Avad, and Selia.
Luke was the same.
He was deeply acquainted with Princess Shasha, the next emperor of the Rodren Empire in the western continent.
If they made a mistake, it wouldn’t just end with their school life being ruined, but their family’s future could be blocked too.
“Pl, please forgive us!”
“Why are you asking me for forgiveness?”
“What? What are you tormenting new students for from the opening ceremony again?”
Cal suddenly stuck his face next to Eliza.
“Get away!”
Eliza frowned deeply and pushed Cal’s face away.
Cal, who stepped back with a giggle, tilted his head.
“So? Why are you scaring the juniors who just entered again?”
“Hmph, who said I was scaring them? I was just trying to educate juniors who carelessly mock seniors.”
“What?”
Cal’s face hardened.
“Are you in your right minds? You’re determined to mess up your school life from the start?”
“S, sorry…”
“No matter how notorious Eliza’s reputation is, how could you think of talking behind Eliza’s back…”
“It’s you! You. You were the one being talked about! You and Luke Elda! You! And what kind of notorious reputation do I have!”
“Gack! Cough cough!”
Choking Cal’s neck with her whip, Eliza growled fiercely.
Cal, who barely escaped from Eliza, chuckled.
“Ah, so that’s what it was?”
“We, we’ve committed a mortal sin!”
“Please forgive us!”
Looking at the two female students who were trembling while bowing to their waists, Cal thought for a moment and then said.
“Fine. I’ll forgive you. But there’s a condition.”
“A condition?”
“Yeah.”
Cal took out two sheets of paper from his pocket.
“For the next semester, will you sell the fatigue recovery potions I made to your classmates instead of me?”
“What?”
“First, you’ll purchase a certain quantity in advance with your own money. Instead, I’ll take a portion of the profit when you sell them. If your sales performance is good, you’ll earn points…”
At Cal’s words, the two 1st years made expressions like ‘what is this about?’
“If you become my sales representatives, I’ll let the matter of talking behind my back slide. I won’t breathe a word to anyone else. How about it?”
“R, really?”
“Of course. I’m definitely trustworthy. You just need to sign here.”
Cal pointed to the end of the contract with a subtle voice.
The two female students signed without hesitation.
“Be careful from now on. Lumern is a place where acting rashly can lead to big trouble. I hope you learned a lot from this incident.”
“Yes! We won’t do it again!”
“Thank you! Senior Cal Thomas!”
Bowing their heads hurriedly, the two female students quickly left.
Seeing that, Eliza narrowed her brow.
“Hmph. You’re going to act like a good senior?”
“Huh? What are you talking about. From now on, their school life will be hell.”
“What?”
“What kind of contract was that?”
When Luke asked with a curious face, Cal smiled wickedly.
“A multi-level marketing contract.”
Eliza narrowed her brow.
“That makes it hell?”
“Of course, it’s hell. Attending school at Lumern costs a tremendous amount of money unless you receive academic scholarships.”
Cal giggled.
“They’ll probably have a really hard time handling the quantity I give them, right? With this, I taught them the important life lessons that you shouldn’t carelessly talk behind seniors’ backs and that you shouldn’t carelessly sign things. Crucially.”
Tucking the contract into his pocket, he shrugged his shoulders.
“I only said I’d let my matter slide, but I never said I’d let the matter about Luke slide.”
“Ah, I don’t mind…”
“Oh no! That won’t do! Luke. Being good-natured is fine, but in cases like this, you have to make them pay the price thoroughly. It’s not a crime if you don’t get caught, but since they were caught, it’s a crime. Think about what price you’ll make those girls pay.”
“Yes.”
Luke scratched his cheek and nodded.
“By the way, Eliza, did you have a good vacation?”
“Hmph. You’re quick to ask.”
Eliza made a listless expression while trimming her nails.
“It was boring.”
“Sounds like you spent it peacefully. I was tormented by Duran to a sickening degree.”
Cal, who had been grumbling, spoke as if remembering something.
“Come to think of it, you. Didn’t you say before that you’d grant any favor I asked?”
“I did say that.”
“I have something to talk about regarding that, so could you spare me some time?”
“Hmph. I’m busy right now. I have to go shopping. I’ll listen when I have free time later.”
“Aw~ Don’t dodge it and spare me some time. I won’t ask for anything weird.”
“For someone taking up the Hergin family heir’s time, you’re being quite insincere, aren’t you?”
At those words, Cal grinned slyly and extended his hand with slightly exaggerated gestures while being polite.
“Miss, would you please grant me your precious time?”
“Hmph. 10 points.”
“Out of 10?”
“No. Out of 100.”
Eliza snorted and took Cal’s hand.
“Fine. Let me hear what favor you’re asking for.”
Cal walked toward Kurazhu Street with Eliza.
“Luke. See you later at the Academy.”
“I’ll wear Cal senior’s uniform well! Farewell! Seniors!”
Luke, who was preciously holding the uniform in both arms, bowed his head.

“Suspicious.”
At Lake Lumeria’s dock, Selia narrowed her eyes and spoke.
At those words, Leo, who was sitting on a dock bench, said.
“What is.”
“Anyone can see it’s strange. Why are all the grades gathered at the dock?”
Selia was right.
Currently, all of Lumern’s students were gathered at Lumeria’s dock.
From the highest grade, 5th year, to the freshmen entering this time.
Originally, for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th years excluding freshmen, it was typical to already enter Lumern and prepare for the opening ceremony.
But this time, a notice came saying they would all move to Lumern together from Lumeria dock.
Thanks to that, a spectacular scene unfolded with all students gathered at Lumeria City’s dock.
The freshmen were completely intimidated by the fact that sky-high seniors were gathered in droves, standing in lines huddled in corners.
Meanwhile, they kept glancing toward Leo with admiring eyes.
But when they made eye contact with Selia beside him, they would startle and turn their heads away.
Of course, there were also those who looked at Selia with admiring eyes, not just Leo.
The 2nd years were also gathered in one area of the dock.
They chatted happily with each other in a somewhat relaxed manner, but would tense up whenever they made eye contact with upperclassmen.
The 3rd years freely conversed with familiar upperclassmen.
“Don’t you know anything?”
When Selia squinted her eyes, Leo shrugged his shoulders.
“Being student council president doesn’t mean I know all the professors’ schemes.”
“True.”
Just as Selia nodded as if convinced, it happened.
“Oh! Leo! Selia! I heard your vacation exploits were amazing? I don’t see Chelsea and Avad?”
An energetic voice was heard.
When Leo and Selia turned their heads, Cal was approaching with his characteristic good-natured smile.
“Chelsea and Avad haven’t arrived at the dock yet. More importantly, what’s wrong with your eye? Did someone hit you?”
Leo asked with a puzzled face.
One of Cal’s eyes was tinged blue.
“Something like that happened.”
Cal made an expression like it was nothing.
“You probably fooled around again and got hit by someone.”
When Selia spoke as if pathetic, Cal grinned slyly.
“Class President!”
Then Iliana, who spotted Leo, ran over and jumped to sit beside Leo, asking.
“Class President! Why are all the grades gathered at the dock? Is something happening again? Huh? Huh? What are the professors scheming?”
Watching Iliana chatter away with all her curious questions, Leo could only smile gently.
“Looks like the Class President doesn’t know either.”
Iliana, with her arms crossed, tilted her head.
And she waved at Selia and Cal.
“Hello?! Did you both have good vacations? Come to think of it, Class President! You said you’re ascending to Tungkon’s throne this time? Wow~ truly the fastest rise to power! You won’t ignore me when you become king, right?”
Flash-!
Then a huge rectangular screen made of magic appeared above the lake.
[Greetings! Everyone! It’s me! Your elegant professor! Sedjen!]
Sedjen, one of Lumern’s famous professors, greeted cheerfully.
[Did the current students have good vacations! I extend welcoming greetings to the freshmen! Current students must be feeling something strange about this situation! And just as you expected! Isn’t sudden situations our Lumern’s school tradition!]
At Sedjen’s words, 2nd through 5th years made expressions like ‘of course.’
The freshmen looked confused and bewildered.
[From now on, we’ll conduct practical combat evaluations by grade! The rules are simple! From now on, each grade must steal the Academy entrance key from specific individuals! Through this evaluation, professors plan to identify what you lack and create lesson plans for the coming year accordingly!]
Then Chloe raised her hand.
[What’s your question! Student Chloe!]
“What if we can’t steal the key?”
[You can’t enter the Academy until you steal it.]
At those words, the students’ eyes widened.
[Now! Let’s announce the opponents starting with 4th and 5th years!]
With Sedjen’s words, the 4th and 5th years made tense expressions.
And after confirming the face of the person shown on screen, exclamations poured out from everywhere.
[The enemy that 4th and 5th year students must defeat! That’s none other than Leo Flobe! Your job is to hurt the nose of this Leo Flobe who’s so perfect it’s annoyingly hateful! Risk your lives! Everyone! How long will you live being intimidated by an underclassman…]
[Drag him out.]
The rampaging Sedjen was grabbed by Ain and Ren and dragged away following Hallind’s cold words.
[I’ll continue.]
Hallind continued with a cold voice.
[These two people hold the keys for 3rd years.]
What appeared on screen were none other than Lil and Elena, representatives of 4th and 5th years.
[This is the student who holds the 2nd years’ key.]
The 2nd years’ target was none other than.
“Oh my?”
Chen Xia, who became the target, smiled gently.
The 2nd years sighed in relief.
Because they thought that no matter how strong Chen Xia was, if all 2nd years seriously charged at her, they could easily win.
However, some students’ faces hardened stiffly.
They were 2nd years who had been Shadow candidates like Elle Jane and Fritz.
[Finally.]
Seeing who appeared on screen, Cal’s mouth fell open.
The 1st years’ gazes all turned toward Cal at once.
“Why me?! Are you out of your mind, Lumern!”
Cal grabbed his head and let out a scream.
[Ho? Are you dissatisfied with my choice, Cal Thomas?]
“No. Of course not.”
At Hallind’s words, Cal immediately shrank back.
Whiiiing-!
A massive warp magic circle was generated across the entire dock.
[Then do your best.]
Along with Hallind’s brief response, a brilliant light burst forth.
Leo closed his eyes and when he opened them, he had already arrived at one of the countless uninhabited islands in Lake Lumeria.
“Hmm.”
Leo stroked his chin once and chuckled.
“So you’re going to thoroughly check the areas students need to improve before proceeding with lessons about the Legion’s World?”
Leo nodded as he thought of those who held keys for each grade level.
Leo walked over to a rock in the middle of the forest and plopped down heavily.
“Well then, shall I wait for my seniors?”
