Leo shook his head as he looked at the messy etheric parade ground.
"Isn't this the first time that seniors have attacked graduating students on graduation day?"
"It's the first time."
Elena smiled brightly at Leo's muttering.
Currently, the fourth-year students are cleaning up the messy ether training ground using only physical labor as compensation for their commotion, and the professors are yelling at them.
It was quite a humiliating sight to show in front of my juniors, but there was not a hint of regret on their faces.
Rather, he is smiling brightly as if he feels relieved.
The graduates also did not have any ill feelings towards their juniors.
Instead, he joked around and teased me.
Many of them also helped fourth graders.
Juniors from other grades approached the graduates and handed them bouquets of flowers.
"Niel, congratulations on your graduation!"
Celia smiled brightly and handed Niel a bouquet of flowers.
"Thank you, miss!"
It wasn't just Celia.
Not only Chen Xia, but also Duran gave Nella a bouquet of flowers.
Runeba also received a bouquet of flowers from both Wareden and Eliza.
"Huh? You guys to me? What's going on?"
Runba looked a little bewildered.
"Isn't that expected, considering I was the valedictorian of the Summoning Department?"
"Congratulations on your graduation."
Eliza answers in her characteristically sullen voice, and Warren speaks in a voice that is difficult to read.
Looking at them, Runba looked a little moved.
Leo, who was looking at the scene, said.
"Why can't you receive a bouquet of flowers?"
"It must be scary."
Elena smiled brightly.
Even though she has become very harmful, Elena is the queen of Lumeren.
Even if she left that place after the graduation ceremony, there was no junior who would dare approach her in a friendly manner.
Wherever she was, she was an unapproachable, aloof queen and a capricious tyrant.
at that time.
Lil, the only one of the Lumer students who had a wrinkled face and was pulling a cart, passed by.
It was unusual for her to always be positive and bright, but there was nothing she could do about it.
In the end, Lil's attack did not reach Elena.
Elena burst out laughing at the sight of such a reel.
"Hey, Lil. Loosen up your face!"
At those words, Lil looked at Elena with a sullen face.
Then he put down the cart and approached Elena.
"Oh? You're attacking me again?"
Elena looked amused as she watched the reel.
"Congratulations on your graduation, Elena."
Lil took out a bouquet of flowers and handed it to Elena.
Elena looked slightly bewildered.
"My senior was not only vicious but also had a bad temper and was a strange person."
"Huh?"
"Still, he was a senior from whom I learned a lot."
Lil's expression softened and she smiled her characteristically positive smile.
Elena looked at the reel for a moment, then smiled brightly.
"Thank you, Lil."
"So, Senior Elena, can you grant me one favor?"
"Huh? What is it? If it's something I can listen to, I'll listen."
"We're not even seniors or juniors anymore, so can I just talk to you?"
"...."
Elena made a strange expression for a moment.
Although they were seniors and juniors, Elena and Lil were the same age.
This is common in Lumern, where the entry age is between 14 and 17.
However, the relationship between seniors and juniors was very strict because the year of admission was given priority over age.
Moreover, as she came from a military family with strict hierarchical order, Lil treated Elena with genuine respect.
It was common for students to become friends after graduation.
Elena looked at Lil, her eyes sparkling, and smiled.
"Yeah, no."
"why!"
Lil got angry as he saw Elena mercilessly rejecting him.
"I think it would be a little scary if I were to be on par with you."
"What about me?"
"She's a monster girl. I think she's going to get eaten."
"Brother! Senior Elena is roasting you!"
Lil complained to Leo with a sad face.
Leo burst out laughing at the sight of such a reel.
"Just let it go."
"No, but how can you do that? You need the other person's permission."
It was a reel that rolled stiffly in a strange place.
Elena smiled brightly as she watched that reel.
"Is this why I like reels?"
Lil clenched his fists and trembled as he watched Elena grumble.
at that time.
"Senior Elena! Congratulations on your graduation!"
"Congratulations on your graduation."
"Here are the flowers."
Chelsea and Abad came over to congratulate Elena, and Chloe presented her with a bouquet of flowers.
"Oh! Congratulations on your graduation, Senior Elena!"
Following this, Karl came over and handed me a bouquet of flowers in his characteristically sly voice.
Starting with that, the juniors of the Department of Magic congratulated Elena on her graduation.
Elena looked a little taken aback by that reaction.
I understood up to the reel.
Because in the five years I've been going to Lumerun, the only person I've ever opened my heart to, aside from Leo, was Lil.
But I never expected that other juniors would congratulate me like this.
"Wasn't I a scary senior to you?"
"He was a scary senior."
"That's right, that's right. He had a bad personality too!"
"The symbol was also annoying!"
Illyana and Carl said with laughter.
Of course, he was punished by Elena's psychokinesis magic, which strangled him.
Nella said, calmly ignoring her comrades who were suffering from suffocation.
"Still, my senior was a trustworthy leader."
The pinnacle of Lumeren is Leo.
The Lumer students move forward, looking at Leo's back as he gives them direction and moves forward.
But there was an inevitable eye level difference between Leo and the students.
Although he is a student, his true nature is that of a great hero.
Even if you adjust your pace to the students, there are unavoidable limitations.
Elena was the practical leader who assisted Leo and led the students.
If Leo showed the way, Elena played the role of guide.
A great and respectable leader before being a queen and a self-willed tyrant.
That's why the students of Lumeren both feared and respected Elena.
It's not like a Lumer student to be afraid to congratulate someone you respect.
No, if that had been the case in the first place, I wouldn't have been able to remain in Lumerne.
Elena blinked her big eyes at her juniors' words.
And he smiled brightly.
At that smile that was only shown to Leo, all the students turned their heads in surprise.
Some covered their mouths to muffle their screams.
A smile so magical that it seems to captivate people of all ages and genders.
"Wow, this is really dangerous."
He looked at Leo, the only one who was still intact, with an expression that said he was tired of the knife.
"How can you look at that smile and be calm?"
At that question, Leo looked at Elena and chuckled.
"These days, I'm starting to feel a little overwhelmed."
***
"It's over! It's vacation!"
"Finally, I'm free from the grueling academic schedule!"
The pier at Lake Lumeria.
The students' voices were bright as they entered the vacation period.
"Which kids will be new students next year?"
"No matter which kids get in, I'll treat them well! Just like my seniors did!"
The first-year students were excited about meeting their juniors after winter break.
The second-year students, who were now entering their third year at Lumerun, were each making their own resolutions.
"Once I become a third-year student, I can't show my immaturity anymore, right?"
"huh."
"Hmm! I need to get my act together a bit more. I'll have to do some special training during winter break..."
"Then do you want to spend winter vacation at my house?"
"Huh?!"
Aina said to Luke, who was trying to calm himself down.
Aina said, looking at Luke who had a puzzled expression.
"We will definitely help each other."
"Um... so...."
When Luke looks confused.
Beep- beep-!
Suddenly a horn was heard.
"Celia! I've discovered an unhealthy relationship here! As a leader, I must take action!"
Illyana intervened between the two.
Celia, who had approached Iliana, made a dumbfounded expression on her face.
"Don't worry about it and go play."
Celia, who had freed Luke and Aina from Illyana's clutches, said with a pitiful tone.
"Luke and Aina's unhealthy relationship? Do you think they're you?"
"Why! A boy and a girl in their prime proudly declared they would live under the same roof! What if something happened? And what about me?"
"They're honest, so they don't cause accidents. And what about you? You're so sinister."
"I'm honest too! And you're being sly! If I were sly, I'd seduce any man and have a romantic relationship with him!"
"Isn't it because you don't have a boyfriend that you're not attractive?"
"Shaaaaaa! Celia is swearing at me, saying I'm unattractive!"
Chen Xia patted Iliana's back as she cried and confided in him.
"How charming Miss Iliana is."
Illyana nodded at those words.
"That's right. It's not that I can't date men, it's that I don't! It's because my standards are too high!"
Celia looked at Iliana with a proud expression and made a pitiful expression.
"So? Is there a way to capture Leo's heart?"
"Um... I've been thinking about it seriously this semester."
"Have you thought about it?"
"I'm thinking of taking off all my clothes and seducing you when I get the chance."
Celia's eyes turned cold.
"No, I'm just kidding. Can't you even joke?!"
Iliana quickly averted her eyes.
"Hmm. I've thought about that too."
"Sia!"
Celia shouted sharply.
Chen Xia shrugged her shoulders as she looked at Celia.
"I gave up because I thought that if I did that to Leo, he would nag me instead of tempting me."
"Ah. I think the class president really is like that. I guess I'll have to give up."
Celia pressed her temples as if her head ached as she listened to her friends' conversation.
"Why does everything become so strange whenever I get involved with that kid?"
At those words, Iliana pouts.
"That's because the class president is a strange person."
"I can't deny it."
Celia opened her eyes slightly.
"But still, think of a normal way."
"What are you talking about?"
"They're going to try to seduce Leo in a weird way."
"As the vice president of the student body, I cannot tolerate such behavior."
Chloe straightened up.
Celia crossed her arms at Chloe's reaction.
"You too, watch Chloe and learn something. Stop thinking about stripping naked in front of Leo and other unhealthy thoughts."
At Celia's words, Chloe's expression turned sour for a moment.
I remembered something that happened at the beginning of this semester.
Chen Xia listened to Celia's nagging in silence.
But Illyana was staring at Chloe.
"Chloe."
"why?"
"Did you do something to the class president?"
"What?! What have I done?!"
"Suspicious? You were clearly startled by Celia's words, weren't you?"
Celia looked dumbfounded as she watched Iliana, who was sharply pointing out the issue with her eyes wide open.
"Do you think Chloe is like you guys?"
"What about us? And Miss Chloe, you know, you've got a bit of a sneaky side to you, too."
"Chloe isn't that kind of person. Right, Chloe?"
"Oh, of course. Celia!"
"Miss Chloe, look straight into Miss Celia's eyes."
Chen Xia's eyes narrowed.
At those words, Chloe looked straight into Celia's eyes.
Red eyes that look exactly like Leo's.
Chloe's face turned bright red as she remembered what had happened back then and she averted her eyes.
Celia's mouth fell open and she looked shocked.
"Uh, Chloe... you?"
Chloe was sobbing and couldn't answer.
"Miss Chloe, what did you do to Lord Leo?"
"Answer quickly!"
Chen Xia and Iliana questioned Chloe.
It was when Celia covered her face while looking at that sight.
"What are you doing?"
Leo approached.
Celia looked at Leo with resentful eyes.
"Because of you, all my friends are acting weird!"
Leo laughed in disbelief at those words.
"It's not because of me that you became weird, your friends, including you, were always weird."
"Why me!"
"Isn't it normal for people of similar breeds to gather together?"
"no!"
Leo just smiled mischievously at his angry cousin.
