"Let's go! Time to show our abilities!" the alchemist declared with a determined expression.
Yi-Han was slightly taken aback and asked, "Hmm. I'd like to meet Yonaire from the Maykin family..."
"Ah. What a coincidence. The person evaluating us today is none other than Miss Yonaire from the Maykin family. Just follow me," the alchemist replied.

The majority of the Cavalry members were not well-versed in dancing the Rancha, so unlike the Imperial Palace party, only a few participated in the dance. Although it was an invitation they received after achieving great feats, there was no atmosphere of disrespect for not dancing. At this rate, the only thing people would remember from today's party would be ...

Yuder followed the hand that elegantly held and led him, passing through the wide-open door.
The grand melody of the Rancha dance resounded loudly. It was natural, as it was different from the imperial palace party where Kishiar had the privilege to choose the music first. Although it was a completely different dance tune from the Avitan, which was origi...

"It wasn't as grand as this, but it wasn't as bad as I thought. The atmosphere was cozy with only a small number of family members and witnesses participating. I received a seal ring engraved with a phrase I personally created, had a meal, and after that night passed, I went to Pel...

While solving the challenges, had the participants shown signs of hesitation or weariness, others might have suggested, "Let's call it a day." But the freshmen were performing so exceptionally that everyone was overly enthusiastic, urging them on.
This left Doin feeling utterly miserable.

'Oh no. What was I thinking?' Yi-Han quickly came to his senses.
Of course, the educational environment at Baldurguard was slightly more comfortable than Einroguard, but that didn't necessarily correlate with magical prowess. Graduates from Baldurguard could also be outstanding mages.
Moreover, his opponent was a graduate. As a mere first-year stud...

Yi-Han hesitated when someone other than Asan came out as the elder of the family.
'What is this? Is it a trap?' he thought.
Could it be that Asan was using this tactic because he didn't want to pay back the silver coins he borrowed?
'No. Asan isn't that wicked.'
However, he couldn't let his guard down.
Even if Asan wasn't like th...

General Gino Bordelli was respected for many reasons, but one of them was his ability to not openly display personal connections or feelings in public settings. He would exceptionally show a friendly attitude and laughter to Kishiar, who was of imperial blood and he had taught sword in his youth, but even that was closer to the appearance of an old retainer, a...

The servants of House Herne, numbering in the dozens, who had received the notice of the Cavalry's visit, guided them with a disciplined and polite attitude. "We sincerely welcome the esteemed guests from the Cavalry. We will do our utmost to serve you without the slightest inconvenience."

"What did you say?" Arlong asked, puzzled.
"No. It's nothing," he quickly changed the subject, not wanting to worry the kind old knight unnecessarily.

'What a shame,' Yi-Han thought regretfully, as the skull principal saw through his true feelings.
In a situation where there was only one suspect, he could not have talked his way out.
The skull principal narrowed his blue pupils and stared at Yi-Han. It seemed like he was having suspicious thoughts...

The students' mood darkened rapidly.

The last moments in the south passed by quickly.

After the sweet rest following the massive battle ended, the Southern Branch of the Cavalry, which had begun to busily move again, was full of vitality. Of course, this was partly due to the fact that there were far more members and guests packed tightly than before, but there was a sense of leisure and liveliness overflowing everywhere that could never be exp...

"How does my assistant plan to rescue the beauty trapped in the tower?"
No matter how accustomed Yuder had become to Kishiar's words and actions, there were still times when he couldn't help but ask for clarification. This was one of those moments. "The beauty in the tower... you say?"

Yi-Han's shock was so great that Professor Ku was taken aback, as if he had misheard the score.

‘It's just like him to try and learn all the academy's magic,’ Chil thought, looking at Yi-Han with a mixture of pity and admiration.
In fact, when Chil had said, "If you're interested, you can try practicing it in advance," he hadn't actually expected Yi-Han to really do it.

"This is a true test of skill. I'm sure the professor will understand," Yi-Han said.
Professor Uregor had done his best to create the problem, and Yi-Han had done his best to solve it. It was a fair match between them. In such a match, there should be no lingering resentment.

"By any chance, after hearing this story, were you displeased?"
Yuder waited for the answer to return, quietly counting the heartbeats racing beneath his hand.
Thump, thump, thump.
When the pulse had beaten exactly 21 times, Kishiar's voice finally reached his ears.

Yuder answered honestly...

The incident from yesterday, where Yi-Han almost got trapped while raiding the kitchen, served as a lesson for him. At Einroguard, one must be suspicious of everything!

A ceramic teapot floated in the air without a single touch, steaming as it poured warm milk. Two cups, enveloped by an invisible force, flew following Kishiar's gaze and settled into each of their arms.
