91.

“I’ll refuse.”

“Why? I’ll treat you very cutely.”

The corners of her eyes curved softly.

That appearance was very seductive and fatal.

Even Lil, who was also a woman, blushed.

“I’m expensive, you know.”

Elena made a slightly dazed expression.

Lil’s eyes widened.

“Pfft.”

Suddenly, a deflated sound flowed from Elena’s mouth.

“Hahahahaha!”

Elena held her stomach and laughed.

Watching Elena laugh until tears flowed, Lil backed away with an expression that said ‘This senior is definitely weird!’ while shuffling backward.

“An interesting kid has joined us.”

“It seems everyone has gathered.”

Ris, the 5th year representative, entered the tent.

“Senior Ris! Nice to see you!”

Lil’s eyes sparkled as she stood at attention in front of Ris.

“Yeah, have you been well?”

“Of course! Your great achievements! I listen to them every single day!”

“Lil, couldn’t you treat me even half as well as you treat Senior Ris?”

“It’s been a while, Elena. How was your mission?”

“It was boring.”

Elena answered with a bored expression.

Ris, who had expected as much, approached Hark who was snoring and sleeping on the ground.

“Hey, Hark. How long are you going to sleep?”

“Huh?”

Hark, who had been sprawled out sleeping until now, removed his eye mask and drowsily opened one eye.

The 4th year representative with a small build was an incredibly handsome young man.

“Yawn. When did you arrive, senior?”

“Just now.”

Hark, who yawned lazily, sat up and said.

“Senior Hark! Hello!”

“Huh? What was your name again?”

“It’s Lil.”

“Ah, right. The 1st year representative!”

“No, I’m the 2nd year representative now.”

“Huh? Was that so?”

Whether he was still groggy from sleep or originally had no interest in others, Hark rubbed his eyes with a dazed expression.

“Well then.”

But after waking up, his face completely changed.

“Let’s have a match, senior.”

Watching Hark smile aggressively while smacking his palm with his fist, Ris chuckled.

“I’ll face you later.”

“I want to fight now though?”

“Trying to fight brutishly right after waking up, how barbaric as expected.”

“Hah! I think I’m better than you who drags all sorts of trashy garbage into your faction, Elena Jeron.”

“Ahhh! S-seniors! If you fight here, we’re in big trouble! The professors will kill us!”

Watching Elena and Hark reveal their killing intent toward each other, Lil was horrified.

Since both were strong candidates for the next student council president, their relationship was very bad.

Actually, aside from that, their ideologies were completely opposite.

Watching this, Ris asked Leo.

“How is it, what are your impressions of seeing the year representatives?”

“They get along very well.”

“…”

Lil gaped as she looked at Leo.

‘A-as expected, Leo isn’t an ordinary person either!’

Ris also looked at Leo with a somewhat incredulous expression and said.

“Both of you stop it. Aren’t you embarrassed in front of your juniors?”

At Ris’s mediation, Elena and Hark backed down.

“You’re Leo Flobe? I’ve heard a lot about you. I’m called Hark Rigard.”

“I’m Leo Flobe.”

Hark, who had been fierce in front of Elena, showed a gentle expression in front of Leo.

“Year representatives, you’re all here, right? If you’re all here, change into formal wear.”

An assistant who entered the tent said that and left the room.

“Formal wear?”

“Don’t you know?”

When Leo made a puzzled expression, Lil tilted her head.

“For school events where all students gather, year representatives always wear formal attire.”

Lil picked up formal wear that was neatly folded in one corner of the tent and handed it to Leo.

“We’re year representatives, so we can’t be the same as regular students.”

Hark also took out formal wear as if he was used to it.

Indeed, the tent was equipped with two rooms that appeared to be changing rooms.

Leo, Ris, and Hark entered the right changing room.

The student representative formal wear was much more formal than the uniforms Lumern students wore to events.

After changing clothes and going outside, commotion could be heard from the women’s changing room.

“S-senior! Where are you touching!”

“This is punishment for calling me dangerous in front of the 1st year junior earlier!”

“T-that was actually true… Ahhh! Don’t touch me!”

“There’s no time! Get ready quickly!”

Hark shouted loudly.

A moment later, Lil came out with a completely reddened face, and Elena followed behind her with a mischievous smile.

“Ahem!”

Lil cleared her throat and came in front of Leo to adjust his outfit.

Watching Lil take care of this and that like an older sister, Elena chuckled.

“How kind. You take good care of your 1st year junior?”

“I’ve been determined since last year to treat any year representative junior well. When I was a 1st year, the senior representative just played a bunch of pranks on me.”

“Oh my. Who would do such a terrible thing.”

Elena put her hand to her cheek and shook her head.

“Yes! I can feel the dignity befitting a year representative! Leo.”

Lil smiled with satisfaction and nodded.

As the five people left the tent, a spectacular sight unfolded.

Students in formal wear were lined up in formation.

Starting with the 5th years who had the smallest number of students, the 4th, 3rd, 2nd, and 1st years were standing by department.

At the front of each year, the top students of each department were standing holding department flags.

When the top student was the year representative, the second-place student was standing there.

When Leo was wondering if he should go to the 1st year side, Lil said.

“Leo, the year representatives are here.”

Lil pointed to a small platform below the main platform.

The very front among the students.

It was literally a place for the five students representing Lumern School.

The grade representatives stood in order.

All students’ gazes pierced into the backs of the grade representatives.

Some with admiration, others with competitive spirit.

He could feel the mixed emotions in their gazes.

‘Indeed. There’s a reason why everyone wants the grade representative position.’

Standing in this position, he could clearly understand.

The most special ones even among Lumern students, where there wasn’t a single non-genius.

Literally, the grade representative position was the closest to future heroes.

Those who aimed higher would do their best to climb to this position somehow.

Conversely, those standing here had to protect this position from challengers.

‘Interesting.’

Leo curled up the corners of his mouth.

Watching such Leo, Lil, who had been making a nervous expression, stuck out her tongue.

‘I’m still trembling just standing in this position. But he’s even smiling, not caring about the gazes from all grades. He’s on a different level. Different level.’

Meanwhile, Elena also watched Leo with sparkling eyes.

During this time, Principal Kalian appeared on the platform.

Seeing this, Ris opened his mouth.

“Everyone… attention!”

Snap-!

All Lumern students stood at attention with discipline.

“Salute to… the Principal!”

Thump-!

With discipline, all grades struck their left chest with their right fist.

It was a greeting dedicated to great heroes.

When Kalian lightly raised his hand, everyone returned to their original posture.

“Students. Did you rest well over the weekend? Today is also a bright day! I hope this week will be one where everyone puts effort into their studies!”

After this, Kalian’s speech began.

“So, what heroes should be!”

As boring and meaningless moral education continued, students made bewildered expressions.

The all-school assembly was a major event that hadn’t happened even once since the entrance ceremony.

Literally an event that only happened when there were important matters, yet only giving obvious speeches, so not only students but even professors couldn’t hide their bewilderment.

“Yawn. It’s too much to call students in the morning for this.”

Eventually, Elena, who was at the very front, lightly yawned and covered her mouth.

Several professors glared at such Elena fiercely.

But the female student called the queen of the school didn’t bat an eye.

Rather, as if annoyed, she pointed to the side with her right hand.

“Snore-“

Nod- Nod-

There, Hark was nodding his head and dozing off.

At that sight, the professors grabbed the back of their necks.

‘Those brats really!’

‘Are you guys still grade representatives acting like that!’

‘Show some example as grade representatives! You delinquents!’

Despite the grade representatives doing other things right in front of him, Kalian continued his boring speech.

“Elena Jeron, Hark Rigard. Follow me to the faculty office after the event ends.”

A chilling voice that froze the venue echoed through amplification magic.

Elena and Hark flinched and took attention posture.

The owner of the voice was none other than Hallind, who held the microphone instead of the Progressing Professor.

Seeing this, Kalian smiled brightly.

“Oh! Professor Hallind. As expected, students listen to you the best…”

“Principal, please get to the main point quickly too.”

“I shall do so.”

Hallind was one of the two professors that the principal feared at Lumern.

“Ahem. Then I’ll get to the main point.”

“What could be the reason for giving boring speeches until now?”

When the Progressing Professor, who got the microphone back, asked in confusion, Hallind answered curtly.

“Because the main point is too short, so it would be awkward to only talk about that.”

Hallind was also one of the three professors who understood Principal Kalian better than anyone.

“Of course, that main point isn’t light by any means.”

Hallind looked at the principal with a serious face.

“From today, Lumern Academy will cut off all means of communication with the outside until the 1st year Inter-Department Competition ends.”

“…?”

For a moment, everyone made expressions of not understanding.

“Professors who commute from Lumeria City will all stay at school, and students are absolutely forbidden from going out or staying overnight. Merchants stationed at Lumern won’t come in from today, so naturally restaurants, shops, and cafes will all close.”

Not only students but professors also made bewildered expressions.

“Naturally, communication through magic is also forbidden. Letters and packages cannot be sent or brought in.”

The professors quickly regained their composure.

But the commotion among students didn’t subside.

A blockade order! It was literally an unprecedented situation.

While all students were murmuring, Leo narrowed his eyes and looked at the principal.

‘So they’re going to catch the traitor.’

***

After the all-school assembly ended, students headed to the cafeteria in a panic.

“This is ridiculous! Not being able to go to the shop for a month!”

The most panicked were the female students.

Shops, cafes, and restaurants closing also meant they couldn’t buy snacks.

“Damn! If I had known in advance and hoarded snacks, I could have made a fortune! No wait! I should talk to the Baking Club kids…!”

At Cal’s words, Chelsea’s eyes sparkled.

“Let’s go quickly! Cal!”

“Alright! Let’s hit up the Baking Club! Leo, let’s go!”

“I need to change into my uniform first. Go ahead.”

“Got it!”

Cal and Chelsea skipped breakfast and rushed off.

Snacks were a serious matter for students.

Watching this and bursting into laughter, Leo headed to the tent to change into his uniform.

There, Lil was sitting collapsed on the ground.

“It was a terrible time.”

“It must have been quite something.”

“Yes. Senior Ris left first for Student Council work, so there was no one to stop them.”

It seemed Elena and Hark had quite a scene.

“If Professor Hallind hadn’t come in the middle, they would have really fought.”

“I had something to say to Senior Elena, so I’ll have to visit her separately later.”

“Leo, are you thinking of going to meet Senior Elena?”

“Yes.”

Lil got up and sighed.

“I don’t recommend it.”

“Why?”

“As I mentioned earlier, she’s a somewhat dangerous person.”

“But I have a favor to ask.”

Lil let out a sigh.

“If you absolutely must meet her, I won’t try to stop you… but it probably won’t be easy to meet her.”

“Can’t I just go to the 3rd year classroom building to meet her?”

“No. Senior Elena hardly attends classes.”

Leo made a strange expression at Lil’s words.

“That person is a genius, you see.”

Despite hardly attending classes, she was still the year representative.

“She spends almost the entire day at her own manor before returning to the dormitory.”

“A manor?”

“Yes. Senior Elena uses the Jeron Family Estate as her personal club building.”

“That’s on a different scale.”

“She’s the heir to Jeron, after all. Anyway, if you want to meet her, you’ll have to go there first, but she doesn’t meet with people easily either.”

“I guess I’ll have to go and see. Thanks for letting me know.”

Leo smiled slightly.

“You’ll need to be careful once you go there, Leo.”

“…?”

When Leo looked puzzled, Lil clicked his tongue.

“The Queen’s followers are quite jealous, you know.”
