“Graduation, huh?”
Elias was momentarily stunned by Latias’ question.
Seeing the tension in her expression, he almost thought that she had somehow figured out his and Latios’ plan.
But after a brief moment of thought, he realized what she was actually worried about.
A chuckle nearly escaped him, but then, a mischievous idea took root in his mind, prompting him to...

Tias asked cautiously, watching Latios, whose face had turned deathly pale, his pupils slightly unfocused.

At the center of it all, Kōenji Rokusuke—who had been the first to expose Uesugi Gen’s supposed background—was lounging with his feet propped up on a chair, admiring his own reflection in a handheld mirror.
On the other side of the room, a group of students, led by Yamauchi Haruki and Ike Kanji, were ...

Sakayanagi Arisu didn’t reply. Instead, she reached out, clutching his shirt, and buried herself in his embrace, taking in his scent as she mumbled:
“Acceptable, my genius-kun.”

Sakayanagi Arisu’s voice, tinged with amusement, pulled Uesugi Gen back to reality.

Uesugi Gen narrowed his eyes slightly as he spoke.
