“I didn’t know you had this class talent.”
“I found out when I went to school, too, Dad.”
He spoke calmly while talking with his father and Dade at dinner.
“He is my son. “How did such an outrageous child come into existence?”
Raina also stuck her tongue out.
Raina, who had seen through her son’s qualities of a genius knight, never even dreamed that Leo was all class.
When I heard the story, I couldn’t believe my ears.
While enjoying dinner with his parents for the first time in a while, Leo told them about what happened at school.
“There are a lot of names I miss.”
Reina smiled brightly, recalling her school days.
“Ain, is he still blunt?”
“Do you know Professor Ain?”
“huh. “Is it my motivation?”
Leo admired Reina, who spoke calmly.
“Now that I think about it, you two are the same age.”
“huh. By the way, he’s an Ain… … “Giggle.”
“Why are you smiling?”
“no. I thought it would be fun to meet during a parent observation event in the second semester. no! Professor Halind said he would be coming during this vacation, right? “I have to make fun of you!”
Reina, who had returned to her school days, was happy with a girlish expression.
“Professor Halind? Even my former students were so intimidated that they couldn’t move, so is it okay to make fun of them?”
“huh? Why are you intimidated? “How kind Professor Halind is.”
“… … .”
Leo made a strange expression at the word ‘kindness’, which did not fit at all with Hallind, the so-called Wailing Wall of Rumern.
Leo, there is no need to be intimidated in front of Halind, but except for Leo, the other first graders trembled in front of Halind.
No, other senior students and professors are also shaking.
‘I guess you’ll take care of the rest, right?’
Leo shrugged his shoulders and enjoyed his first home-cooked meal in a long time.
Dade looked at this with satisfaction.
“Oh, by the way, I also met Mr. Pirina.”
“huh? “Is it a flute?”
Reina was surprised.
“Why is Pirina in Rumern?”
“It’s because of personal reasons.”
“okay?”
“And I made a contract with Mr. Pirina’s daughter.”
Reina opened her mouth wide.
“what? “You signed with Phoenix?”
Raina and Dade were surprised because this was an unknown fact to the public.
Seeing the reaction, Leo summoned his spiritual power and drew a summoning circle.
After a while, Fiora in her original form crossed over the summoning circle.
Bleep?
“Oh my goodness? What a cute baby bird. “Come here?”
Reina let out an exclamation and gestured.
Fiora tilted her head but walked towards Reina without any doubts.
Then he pecked at the steak in front of Raina.
Reina, who was looking at this cutely, asked Leo.
“So, where is the Phoenix you signed with?”
Beep! Beep!
Pirina chirped, spreading her wings wide in protest.
Leo said calmly after seeing that.
“He’s Phoenix.”
At those words, Fiora gracefully folded her wings and raised her chin.
“… … “It’s a chick?”
Bye-!
And he protested dissatisfied.
“That’s right, Phoenix. “My name is Fiora.”
“Right.”
When Reina was convinced by Leo’s words, Fiora bowed her head again with an elegant gesture as if greeting her.
“But wasn’t Pirina’s daughter making a contract with Eren’s daughter?”
“I happened to sign a contract. “I’ve already met and finished talking with Lund’a’s successor.”
“Ellen’s daughter? iced coffee! “I guess we met on a school trip?”
Reina, who was surprised, nodded.
Then he burst into laughter.
“really. “You really had a hectic semester.”
“Isn’t Lumern always like this?”
“No matter how tough Lumern is, it’s not easy to have a semester as spectacular as yours, right?”
Reina from Rumern shook her head and said.

“Anyway, you must have had a hard time during the semester, so take a good rest during the vacation.”
After the meal, Reina enjoyed refreshments and had a long conversation with her son for the first time in a while, she returned to the room humming a song.
After washing up and getting ready for bed, Dade came to the room and looked at Raina, who was looking at something in front of the desk, with a puzzled expression on his face.
“What are you looking at like that?”
“School days album.”
Dade smiled softly and sat down next to Rayna.
“Are you finally ready to see it?”
“huh. “When I hear Leo’s story, I suddenly feel nostalgic.”
Raina lost her spark in an unexpected accident.
Although she was smiling calmly, the days when she was active as a Gerdinger, including in Rumern, were like a painful wound to Raina.
That’s why I tried to refrain from doing anything that would remind me of those times as much as possible.
Dade also knew that fact, so he did not ask Raina questions that would remind him of the past.
“how is it? What was my teenage years like?”
“It’s beautiful.”
“More than now?”
“No, not as much as now.”
“Are you able to avoid it well?”
Raina chuckled and flipped through the album.
Dade looked puzzled as he looked at the other races in the album.
“Are these students from another hero academy?”
“huh. The elf here is Alan, and the beastman here is Verga. “The dwarf is Jack.”
Deid clicked his tongue when he heard that name.
They were all heroes whose names were listed on hero records or people with similar reputations.
“I heard that the Beastman Hero Academy Azonia holds an entrance ceremony in the summer, unlike other schools?”
“that’s right. “They hold the entrance ceremony when it’s the hottest.”
“Is there a reason?”
“huh. “Azonia is famous for having the most difficult entrance ceremony.”
The entrance ceremony of the Beastman Hero Academy, Azonia, was very unique.
Because it was none other than a cross-desert marathon.
“Well, it’s an entrance ceremony, but it’s actually a final entrance exam.”
“Final entrance exam?”
“huh. Azonia holds free lectures during the season when other schools hold entrance ceremonies.”
“Free lecture?”
“huh. Anyone who turns 15 can take classes. It’s okay if other races go. You can take the lecture as long as you want. So, surprisingly, there are human and dwarf students among Azonia students.”
“What about elves?”
“I guess the elves are sick of Azonia’s religious culture and will never go there?”
Reina clenched her chin.
“Anyway, I study like that and take tests in between. And only those who pass can continue taking classes. Students who ultimately survive until the summer are given the opportunity to attend the entrance ceremony. And if you complete the marathon, you officially become a student of Azonia. That’s why the entrance ceremony is also called the final entrance exam.”
“That’s unusual.”
“Isn’t it unique? Well, it’s a test to select the right talent for your school.”
“Should everyone take free lectures equally?”
“no. Students from famous hero families or students who have received a letter of recommendation can skip the free lecture and attend the entrance ceremony through recommendation. Of course, even if recommended, if you fail the entrance ceremony, you will not be able to enroll.”
“Right.”
“Anyway, if you are selected through recommendation, you can participate in the entrance ceremony because you are a prospective Azonia student… … .”
Palak-!
Raina, who was flipping through the album, stopped.
On the page I turned, there was an envelope instead of a photo.
Reina took out the envelope with a puzzled look and looked back.
And after checking the wax seal on the seal, I thought, ‘Ah!’ and screamed.
“what’s the matter?”
Reina scratched her cheek.
“I forgot I received a letter of recommendation for admission to Azonia a long time ago.”
“what?”
Dade was surprised.
“I helped conquer Azonia Academy’s dungeon. At that time, I was asked if I would consider enrolling my child if I had one. Although I refused. “I forced it on myself and accepted it without realizing it.”
The beastmen were a race that revered strength.
As such, there was a strong tendency to actively accept warriors with outstanding military capabilities into the academy.
At that time, Azonia saw Reina’s strength and paid tribute to her strength and gave her a letter of recommendation.
“Well, it’s a story that’s been around for about 20 years.”
“Then it doesn’t matter, right? “They probably forgot to give me a letter of recommendation.”
“Uhm~ I guess so?”
Raina calmly inserted a letter of recommendation between albums.
“Anyway, let’s call it a night, Raina.”
“huh.”
Dede and Raina lay on the bed.
Raina, who was covering herself with a blanket and looking at the ceiling, suddenly remembered one thing.
‘Now that I think about it, I felt good after drinking at the banquet, and when I received a letter of recommendation from Berga, I think I made something similar to a contract with a spirit.’
And I remembered that I had dropped some blood when I was writing the contract.
Reina, who was feeling uncomfortable, chuckled.
‘Hey, Leo is already a student at Rumern, well. ‘Something’s going on.’
***
Leo returned home and had a leisurely vacation.
Of course, I didn’t forget to consistently do my homework.
In the case of Leo, one per department.
There were as many as three homework assignments, so the amount of homework was greater than that of other students.
But I completed my homework without any problems.
Meanwhile, the surrounding noble families continued to send letters saying they wanted to invite Leo to the party.
Some of them even came to the mansion to see Leo.
‘When I went to Delran Royal School, I didn’t even care. ‘Deceitful people.’
Tsk tsk – Leo clicked his tongue and declined the invitation.
It was obvious that going to such a place would only lead to troublesome things.
But letters did not come only to nobles.
“son! son!”
“why.”
“What kind of kids are Chloe, Chen Xia, Nella, and Iliana here? “Looking at their names, they seem like girls?”
Raina made a fuss after receiving the letter addressed to Leo at breakfast.
Since there was no direct mail, letters coming to Dellad had to go through Rodren.
That’s why letters from friends in other provinces were delivered all at once.
Raina said, ‘I can’t believe my son is this popular!’ She said happily.
There were letters from male students she was close with, including Carl and Tade, but Raina didn’t show the slightest interest in them.
“Aren’t you asking about the boys?”
“I’m not interested in talking about men.”
It was when Leo sighed as he looked at his mother who was only interested in her son’s love life.
“lady.”
“what’s the matter?”
A maid hurriedly approached.
“Madam and Master have guests.”
“customer? “If it’s a noble guest, I’ll say no because I’m busy.”
“that is.”
The maid hesitated and spoke carefully.
“They say they came from Azonia Academy.”
“Azonia?”
Leo gave a puzzled look.
Raina ugh-! He let out a groan.
“Ask them to come in first.”
“yes.”
Leo asked, looking at Reina who was sighing deeply.
“Why are you looking for my mother and me in Azonia?”
“I think something a little troublesome will happen.”
It was when Leo narrowed his eyebrows at those words.
The door opened and someone came in.
He was wearing a deep robe on this hot summer day.
Leo saw that and made a puzzled expression.
‘government ordinance?’
[Are you Reina Gerdinger?]
“I’m not Gerdinger now. First of all, it’s true that it’s Raina.”
[Hello, I am an errand spirit from Azonia.]
The spirit bowed his head politely and handed over a scroll of parchment.
Reina opened it, scratched her head, and handed it to Leo.
Leo’s face changed strangely as he checked the parchment.
[Congratulations, Reina Gerdinger. Your child has been selected as a recommended candidate for admission to Azonia.]
The contents of the parchment were simple.
The plan was to attend Azonia’s entrance ceremony to be held two days later in Azrek, a maritime megacity in the southern region.
