【80】79.
The next day, the excitement and fatigue of the school trip had not yet subsided.
Rumern’s academic schedule went ahead without fail.
Most first-year students were unable to adapt to the atmosphere and took class in a flustered state.
Meanwhile, at the end of the last class before lunch.
“Everyone’s attention, I have something to convey.”
Professor Draygon, a history professor, focused the students’ attention.
As the students concentrated, Professor Dragon opened his mouth.
“This afternoon’s class schedule has been changed. Since joint major classes will be held, there will be no exceptions to gather in the main auditorium of the Tower of Heroes after lunch.”
Professor Draygon left and the students began to murmur.
“Combined major classes? Until now, major classes have never been held jointly, right?”
Carl stroked his chin.
“Doesn’t it smell like a new department event?”
Leo said, looking at Carl, who was grinning.
“I guess so. “Our school doesn’t leave students alone.”
“Oppa Leo! “Let’s have lunch at a cafe near the Tower of Heroes today!”
“Is that so?”
“Chelsea! Abad came looking for you.”
“huh?”
Chelsea approached Abad at the sound of a voice coming from the back door of the classroom.
Chelsea came back a while later and said she was sorry.
“Sorry, I guess I’ll have to eat lunch with my brother.”
“okay. “Have a good time with your siblings.”
“Eat delicious lunch.”
Carl said as Chelsea went to have lunch with Abad.
“Now then, shall we move towards the Tower of Heroes? “There are a lot of seniors there, so it feels a bit burdensome.”
The two left the classroom building and headed to the Tower of Heroes.
In addition to the student cafeteria, the Rumeren school site was lined with various cafes, shops, and restaurants.
Of course, unlike student cafeterias, you have to pay, but since there are no places that are not tasty and you can enjoy a variety of dishes, students often frequented them.
“When I heard the story, I heard that it is very competitive to get into our school.”
Carl said while looking at the restaurants around the Tower of Heroes.
“Leo, how about southern cuisine today?”
“OK.”
“Great! “Actually, I heard there was a really delicious southern restaurant near the Tower of Heroes, so I wanted to go there!”
Leo followed Carl to a famous restaurant.
As expected, just as Karl said, it was full of customers.
Since there was a spot, Leo and Carl decided to go there.
“excuse.”
“Huh?”
At that time, a group of students cut in and quickly sat down.
“hey. We were going to sit down first?”
“huh?”
The students’ eyes widened at Leo’s words and they began to laugh.
“What is he saying about the first grade topic?”
“Are you going to confront us now? cute.”
“Wait a minute, white hair and red eyes… … “This guy is Leo Plov, right?”
The ones who cut in line were none other than the second-year Summoning Department students.
The second year students in the Summoning Department, which had a stronger culture of hierarchy among students compared to other departments, were looking at Leo with disdain as he did not even show his face to his seniors while taking the Summoning class.
Of course, no matter how his seniors viewed him, Leo was not one to bat an eye.
“He’s as cocky as the rumors say.”
“what? “Do you think you can achieve anything if you are the representative of your grade?”
Carl smiled awkwardly as he looked at the second graders who were giving off an unpleasant atmosphere.
“haha. no. We’ll just go somewhere else and eat. “Let’s go, Leo.”
“Anyway, is this why you can’t come from a commoner background with country kids? It’s not polite. “Courtesy.”
“haha.”
Carl smiled brightly.
“Leo, just let’s go. There’s nothing good about having trouble with your seniors… … .”
Tuk-!
“100 million?”
Quadang-!
A second-year student in the Summoning Department walked on the sword.
As anyone could see, he knocked it over on purpose and poured water on Carl’s head from the water jug on the table.
“Behave well, too. Because we can become like friends.”
“Man, that was harsh. “It’s a different department.”
“Would the kids in the magic department take care of a nameless commoner like that? “He’s a kid who won’t last even one semester anyway and will be recommended to drop out.”
They laughed amongst themselves.
“excuse.”
Leo stopped serving, smiled apologetically at the hesitant waiter, and picked up the soup on the waiter’s tray.

Wow!
“Gagging?”
And without hesitation, he hurled the bowl of hot soup into the face of the second grader who had knocked over the knife.
“Uh, sorry. “My hand slipped.”
Leo, who spoke without the slightest bit of regret, touched the soup bowl against the second-year student’s face.
“Kwaaaak!”
A second-year student who suddenly had hot soup poured on him grabbed his face and screamed.
“Are you crazy!”
“How dare a first-year student be rude?”
Sparks flew in the eyes of the other second graders.
“I guess it’s not really a violation of the school rules.”
Leo said with a cruel smile.
At that moment, the second graders who were ahead of Leo trembled.
But soon, his face turned red as if his pride was hurt.
“Follow you out. “I’ll make you pay dearly for daring to pick a fight with a second grader!”
It was when the atmosphere became harsh.
“Leave it at that.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the corner of the restaurant.
The second-year students who had been arguing with Leo hurriedly stood at attention.
“Ooh, Ulta senior!”
He was a pale 5th grade boy with pale skin and light blonde hair.
He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said while looking at the second graders.
“You guys started the argument first, right? If you make more of a fuss than this, I won’t be able to watch over you as a senior in the department. So, can’t we stop at that point?”
“Huh! Yes, yep! Sure!”
“All right!”
“I was sorry. “Let’s leave it at this.”
The second year students in the Summoning Department quickly apologized and left the restaurant in a hurry.
Ulta got up from his seat and walked over to Carl and helped him up.
“I apologize on behalf of the Summoning Department. sorry.”
“no.”
Carl smiled sheepishly and shook his head.
Ulta saw Leo for the last time.
“I’m sorry for interfering. “No matter how bad I was, it would be heartbreaking to see my juniors being rude to first-year students, so I intervened.”
Ulta smiled meaningfully and left the restaurant.
“who is this?”
“Don’t you know about Ulta Legition? You’re the 5th grade valedictorian, right? A man who was Reiss Gerdinger’s rival for five years straight! “I heard he was away on a mission. When did he come back?”
Carl said in an excited tone.
Leo chuckled after hearing that.
‘indeed. It certainly makes sense that a 5th grade valedictorian would be a contractor for Pegasus.’
Ulta was a contractor of Pegasus, known as the three greatest phantom beasts, along with Phoenix and Fairy.
***
Celia approached Leo, who was heading to the main auditorium of the Tower of Heroes after lunch.
“Leo.”
“hi. Celia. “Did you have a good school trip?”
“of course.”
In response to Leo’s question, Celia brushed her hair and laughed.
“I came here after wiping out the thieves who were committing illegal activities in the elf realm.”
Celia, who had been speaking proudly with her chest wide open, opened her eyes softly.
“Well, it was minor compared to your class 5.”
As it became known that he and Seirun shared a class together during a school trip, Class 5 became the object of envy among all first-year students.
“I heard you went and met the first-year Seilun representative? how was it?”
Celia, who knew that Runia, Seilun’s first-year representative, was from the Lundua family that wields the power of the Phoenix, showed great curiosity.
“It was outrageous.”
Carl chuckled next to me and answered.
“Are elves ugly? “The image doesn’t remind you?”
Celia looked curious.
That was when we were talking about the school trip.
Teaching assistants came into the main auditorium.
“ruler! everyone! “Please gather by department.”
The students looked puzzled at the teaching assistants’ words.
“Are we meeting by department rather than class?”
“yes. “Preparations for the departmental competition begin today.”
“… … !”
“… … !”
The complexions of the first graders suddenly changed.
Department competition!
Lumerun selects the best department for each grade every year.
As the pride of the department was at stake, department competitions were always fierce regardless of grade.
“Leo! Come on!”
Celia grabbed Leo’s hand.
“Uh-huh! for a moment! “Why are you taking Leo with you?”
Carl urgently grabbed Leo.
“Why are you taking me? “Leo is a knight major?”
“Why is Leo studying knighthood? Strictly speaking, it’s close to the Department of Magic! “Did you hear that Leo interpreted the magic of Nebula’s ancestor during this school field trip?”
“What do you know?”
At that moment, Chelsea suddenly came running.
“Why are you taking Leo?”
“Do you know where Leo’s maternal family is?”
“But that doesn’t mean Leo is a Gerdinger, does it?”
A spark flew between Celia and Chelsea for the first time in a long time.
Meanwhile, everyone’s attention was focused on Leo.
‘Leo Plov… … .’
‘Power to demonstrate top-level skills in knighthood, magic, and summoning… … .’
‘We have to get them involved somehow!’
There was a war of nerves between departments over Leo’s future.
“Anyone can tell that Master Leo is a knight, right?”
“That’s just the knight department’s argument.”
Chen Xia said with a smile, and Chloe shook her head.
“Leo Plov. “If you are my rival, join the knight department like a rival.”
“Since when did Leo become your rival?”
Chelsea snorted as Duran spoke in an authoritative voice.
“There’s no need for it, Leo is in the same department as me, right?”
“Including you, Chen Xia, and Duran, there are already three top admissions in the Knights Department, right? “Do you think it’s unfair to have grade representatives join in?”
“I don’t think that’s something to say in a magic department that has two admissions chiefs, right? Warrenden! “You also have to say something!”
Celia, Abad, and Eliza became irritated when they saw Wareden standing by as if he was not interested.
“Leo! Choose! “Which department should I go to?”
In the end, Celia left the choice to Leo.
Leo, who heard that story, said indifferently.
“The solution is simple.”
***
The first year students gathered by department.
While there was a commotion in the auditorium, three people appeared on the podium.
“Wait a minute, isn’t that Torua senior?”
“Is that Senior Jamua?”
“iced coffee! “It’s Ulta senior!”
Top 5th graders in each department.
They were truly hero candidates who were close to being heroes.
The entire first grade was filled with excitement at the appearance of big names that were rarely seen.
Meanwhile, Torua discovered something.
Currently, the first grade was divided into four sections.
The Knight Department, the Magic Department, the Summoning Department, and the empty space that occupies a large area all by itself… … .
“Hey, Leo. “Why are you being ostracized by yourself?”
“Please correct me, Senior Torua.”
Leo chuckled.
“You’re bullying the entire grade.”
