78.

The next day.

Class 5, having enjoyed their given free time, reluctantly boarded the teleport gate as evening arrived.

“Still, it was a fun school trip!”

“Yeah. It was worthwhile.”

When Iliana stretched and spoke, Nella also agreed with her characteristic languid smile.

“Probably no other class had a more fulfilling school trip than us, right?”

“Right, right. Who else would get to do joint classes with Seirun students?”

Cal giggled in agreement with Taide’s words.

“It was fun, wasn’t it, Leo oppa?”

Leo nodded as he looked at Chelsea, who asked with a giggle.

“Yeah.”

Just as all of Class 5 was boarding the teleport gate.

Seirun students appeared through the teleport gate.

They too were planning to return to Seirun via the teleport gate.

“Everyone from Lumern. Please return safely. We look forward to seeing you again.”

When Herdium spoke with a bright smile, Class 5 also smiled brightly.

“See you next time! Teacher Herdium!”

“The classes were fun!”

Besides Herdium, various Seirun students they had befriended came to say goodbye.

Leo waved with a smile toward Runia, who had returned to her honor student appearance, and Eiran standing beside her.

Eiran smiled back and waved, while Runia snorted and turned her head away sharply.

Even so, she glanced at Leo and waved back.

“Everyone, you haven’t forgotten anything, right? We’re departing now.”

“Yes!”

The Class 5 students answered energetically to Sena’s words.

Whooom-!

The teleport gate activated, enveloping them in bright light.

***

When night fell, Lumern’s first-year dormitory was bustling with students.

“Hey! How was yours?”

“Ours? Hehe! Don’t be surprised! We actually did monster subjugation!”

“Wow, we just did volunteer work and stuff like that.”

They were busy talking about their school trip experiences with students from other classes they were friendly with.

Cal burst into laughter as he headed to the male dormitory bathhouse.

“Hehe. How ridiculous. No class had as fulfilling a school trip as ours.”

He rinsed off in the public bath and soaked his body in the large bathtub.

“Ah. I missed this warm feeling.”

Since they could only shower at most during the school trip, Cal was enjoying the luxurious dormitory bathhouse.

Leo was also soaking when it happened.

“Move aside, Woreden Taiden. I’ll be using this bathtub.”

“You don’t know your place. Duran Moira.”

“What did you say?”

“I merely stated a fact. If my words bother you, prove it with your skills.”

“Interesting. I was already thinking I needed to take you down anyway.”

One corner of the bathroom became noisy.

“Ugh. Those guys finally got into it.”

Cal clicked his tongue.

The male dormitory bathhouse was very spacious to accommodate many people.

And many bathtubs were arranged throughout.

Among them was one particularly luxuriously decorated bathtub that was smaller than the others.

It was sized for four or five people to use, but from the nobles’ perspective, it was just the right size for a personal bathtub.

However, hardly any students used that bathtub.

Because it was someone’s reserved spot.

Specifically, Duran Moira from Class 1 and Woreden Taiden, the class president of Class 7.

These two, who were the strongest among the first years, had been using this spot like their personal reserved seat.

“Those guys never had any conflicts before because their bathing times were different.”

As Cal said, the two who had different bathing schedules never encountered each other in the bathhouse.

But with the school trip return day coinciding and students crowding the bathhouse, they ended up meeting now.

Thanks to the ominous atmosphere the two were giving off, the male students were nervously watching the situation.

Duran and Woreden.

While counted among the top skilled students in the first year, they were also famous for their rough personalities.

Just when an unusual tension was flowing between the two.

Splash.

“Why don’t you just wash peacefully together?”

Everyone’s gaze turned to Leo.

Leo, leaning against the bathtub, was looking at the two with only his head tilted all the way back.

“Why fight over a bathtub spot? You’re not children.”

“Are you interfering as the year representative to mediate the disturbance, Leo Flobe?”

Leo made an indifferent expression at Duran’s question.

“Does it seem like such a grand reason? I’m just saying don’t cause trouble.”

“If you don’t want that situation, then you come at us too.”

Duran smiled belligerently.

“Wow-! As expected, our prince interprets things however he wants to hear them!”

When Cal exclaimed in admiration, Duran’s murderous gaze turned toward Cal.

“Ugh.”

Cal nonchalantly turned his head away.

Just when the hair-trigger atmosphere was continuing.

Creak-

“Huh? Why’s the atmosphere like this?”

The bathroom door opened and someone entered.

It was none other than Avad Rwallin.

When the TOP4 first-year male students gathered in one place, the nervous male students were gulping down dry saliva.

Splash-

“…”

“…”

Avad entered the spot where Duran and Woreden were having their standoff.

Avad also used this place as his reserved spot.

Of course, unlike Duran and Woreden, he didn’t give other students looks to prevent them from using it.

Rather, it was closer to other students being reluctant to use the same bath as Avad.

Nobles generally dislike bathing with others anyway.

Everyone looked at Avad with blank eyes.

“Why?”

Seeing Avad ask with his characteristic smiling face, Duran and Woreden’s faces contorted.

“Kuhuk!”

Leo burst into low laughter.

Following that laughter, Duran and Woreden’s faces became even more menacing.

‘Hey! Don’t laugh!’

All the male students screamed internally.

Thus, the bathhouse incident that had been like the calm before the storm came to an anticlimactic end.

***

[Wings! Wings! Yahoo! I got my wings back!]

Whoosh-!

When Leo returned to his room after washing up, Kirran was flying around in circles above the room.

Each time, sparkling small particles scattered around.

“So noisy. How long are you going to keep doing that?”

[Leo! Look! Wings! My wings!]

Kirran flew in front of Leo, showing his back and flapping his wings proudly.

“I’ve already seen enough, okay? And it’s just one pair out of three pairs of wings anyway.”

Leo’s reaction was lukewarm.

[The great Fairy Prince has regained his power, so be more amazed!]

Fairies were powerful familiars that summoners would serve almost reverently.

But he was barking up the wrong tree to expect that.

[Right, Leo, you probably haven’t experienced my power yet, so that might be why! Good! Then I’ll specially show you my power!]

“How are you going to show it?”

When Leo asked lukewarmly, Kirran made a stylish turn in the air and flew toward Fiora, who was eating chocolate in one corner of the room, looking completely uninterested.

Chirp?

[Here we have an arrogant red chick!]

Like a magician performing magic, Kirran pointed at Fiora with exaggerated gestures.

Chirp-

[Kyaak!]

Fiora pecked Kirran’s crown with her beak.

Then she stepped on Kirran, who was rolling on the floor clutching his head.

[Get your foot off me! I’m going to show you something cool!]

Chirp?

Kirran, who barely managed to get up, activated his mana.

Then he raised his hand and sprinkled light powder over Fiora’s head.

Fiora’s body began to glow with a subtle silver light.

“Polymorph?”

Polymorph.

It was magic used by those with higher-dimensional minds to summon another aspect of themselves.

The race that typically enjoyed using this magic was dragons.

However, it was magic that fairies rarely learned.

The highest-level familiars of fairy rank could summon their other aspects using their power even without magic.

Fiora was still too young for that, but with the help of polymorph, she could summon her other aspect.

“Why did you learn this?”

[To play pranks.]

‘Right, this guy was banished from Silrod for causing trouble.’

While Leo clicked his tongue, the light faded.

What appeared was a cute girl who looked about five years old, wearing a red dress.

Crimson hair and eyes that seemed ready to burst into flames at any moment.

A doll-like appearance so cute and delicate it was admirable.

[Heh-! How’s that! My power!]

Leo ignored the boastful Kirran and rested his chin on his hand.

Fiora, who had widened her eyes at the changed eye level, approached the mirror.

Seeming to like her appearance, she even did a light turn in front of the mirror.

Then she walked toward Leo.

“This is the first time greeting you like this.”

She seemed to be trying her best to make a dignified and solemn expression, but unfortunately, combined with her appearance, it only gave a cute impression.

“Your pact…”

Flutter flutter-

[How’s that! My amazing power!]

Kirran flew around frantically in front of Fiora, who was trying to greet Leo.

“Don’t interfere.”

[Heh, pathetic movements.]

She reached out her small hands to catch Kirran, but he annoyingly dodged.

Frustrated, Fiora forgot about greeting Leo and chased after Kirran.

Then she suddenly came to her senses and returned to Leo, elegantly lifting the hem of her dress slightly and bending her knees.

“I’m Fiora, your pact maker.”

It was like a child imitating an adult, making Leo burst into laughter.

“How polite.”

“Mother told me to be courteous to pact makers.”

[Oh~ What a good little one.]

Kirran, who had flown over and perched on Fiora’s head, slapped Fiora’s forehead with his palm – slap slap.

Fiora glared and tried to catch Kirran again.

But Kirran just leisurely escaped.

“Stop right there!”

Fiora, who had been chasing angrily, seemed unfamiliar with her human body and soon twisted her ankle and fell.

[Wahaha! You think you can catch me with those tiny limbs!]

Kirran flew in front of Fiora’s face and taunted her mercilessly.

Fiora clenched both fists and puffed up her cheeks.

Like an angry child, tears slightly formed at the corners of her large eyes and her body trembled.

[Puhahahaha! Go eat more seeds and come back… Gueek-!]

Kirran, who had been annoyingly taunting, was trampled by Leo.

Fiora didn’t miss the opportunity and slapped Kirran with her palm – slap slap.

Having succeeded in her revenge, Fiora said with a relieved expression.

“Leo. I want to show this form to mother too, please open the path.”

“Alright. Take this guy with you while you’re at it.”

He picked up Kirran, who was twitching on the floor, and gave him to Fiora.

If he left this fairy in the dormitory, there was no telling what trouble he might cause.

‘I should have him stay in Pirina’s domain for now.’

“Also tell her that he seems to need some etiquette education.”

“Yes.”

Fiora nodded and passed through the summoning circle Leo had opened.

‘Finally some peace.’

With the chattering fairy who had been flying around noisily finally gone, Leo dried his hair with a towel.

Now he could finally organize his thoughts.

‘My Hero Record and dagger found in Berkia are now in Seirun’s custody.’

Leo looked out the window.

Lumern had Demon Queen Silatuna.

Seirun had Overlord King Hel Kaiser.

The threat of Tartaros continued from unseen places.

Leo narrowed his eyes as he looked at the scenery of Lumern visible outside the window.

‘Seirun had Lauta as a direct traitor.’

There was no law saying Lumern couldn’t have such traitors too.

‘First priority should be eliminating Tartaros forces that have infiltrated Lumern.’
