The end of final exams, signaling the end of the semester.
Once the original exam is over, Lumern students are divided into two categories.
first. A student who feels both relieved and liberated.
second. A student trembles in fear, worried about being advised to drop out.
But the atmosphere in Rumern right now was different from usual.
Everyone welcomed the school vacation ceremony in a solemn atmosphere.
It was the same in class 5.
The usual lively atmosphere was nowhere to be found.
I was just quietly waiting for Halind to enter the classroom.
Druk-
The door opened and Halind entered the classroom.
While all the students looked nervous, Associate Professor Sena brought the report card.
“Everyone worked hard for a year.”
Halind glanced at the students with his characteristic dry face.
While the class 5 students were nervous under those gazes.
Halind said.
“I guess some of these people have already made up their minds?”
At those words, students with poor grades in the class lowered their heads.
It has to be that way.
In the first semester, miraculously, all of class 5 succeeded in surviving.
However, Lumern is a school where it is not easy to survive.
In severe cases, there are times when less than half of the students remain when transitioning from the first year to the second year.
Carl groaned and scratched his head.
“Is this the end?”
Halind opened his mouth as he smiled bitterly and muttered softly.
“Carl Thomas.”
“Yes, yep!”
Carl jumps out of his seat! I stood up and stood at attention.
The Class 5 students looked at Karl with a nervous expression and swallowed dry saliva with sad expressions.
Carl had a unique friendliness and there was no student he was not close to.
The students of class 5 couldn’t help but feel bad when they heard that Karl was leaving school.
“This guy was not advised to drop out. Everyone knows what this means, right?”
Carl blinked.
While the class 5 students, who did not understand for a moment, looked blank, Sena smiled softly and said.
“Everyone in our class has moved on to second grade.”
“Really?”
“Is that true?!”
“Uuuuuuu!”
Shocked reactions erupted from all over Class 5.
Such reactions were heard not only from class 5 but also from the entire first-grade classroom wing.
Knock-knock-
When Halind lightly knocked on the lectern, the Class 5 students immediately sat upright.
“Consider yourself lucky. “At the Rumeren professor meeting, it was decided to promote all grades this time.”
At those words, Illyana raised her hand.
“Is there a special reason why you decided that way?”
“The professors highly valued the experience you gained from this incident.”
The moment they heard those words, the faces of the Class 5 students stiffened.
The invasion of the Demon Queen and the second coming of Zerdiac.
It was an incident that managed to end in victory because the great heroes appeared at the same time as Zerdiac.
However, if the great heroes had not appeared, not a single person would have survived.
“In addition, it is important to finish the academic schedule a month early this semester.”
It was just as Halind said.
Rumern finished the academic schedule a month early and went on vacation.
“Don’t think of vacation as just a time to rest, but as a period of further growth.”
With that, Halind handed out report cards and home letters to the students in charge.
“Then, this will conclude the second semester of the first year.”
Halind spoke indifferently to the class 5 students.
“Congratulations to everyone on being promoted to second grade.”
“Professor Halind… … .”
“If it weren’t for the professor’s guidance, I wouldn’t have been able to advance to second grade!”
“thank you!”
The entire class 5 expressed their sincere gratitude to Halind.
When Halind first became a homeroom professor, there were many students who despaired.
It has to be that way.
Hallind, called the Rumern Wailing Wall and the place where most students were advised to drop out, was fear itself.
However, when I look back, I achieved better results and survived because of Halind’s guidance.
Halind smiled at his students’ reactions and left the class.

Sena, who remained in the class, spoke with regret.
“I would like to have a party with all the students, but the situation does not allow it. “Everyone worked hard throughout the school year.”
“Associate Professor Sena!”
“Aren’t you in charge of the second year?”
Female students flocked around Sena.
Unlike the scary Khalind, Sena was like an older sister to the Class 5 students.
There were quite a few students who would have had a hard time enduring it if she hadn’t lightened the mood well in the middle.
Sena smiled bitterly as she looked at the students whose eyes were red.
“Because nothing has been decided yet.”
Sena spoke brightly while comforting the students.
“Anyway, congratulations on your promotion to second grade, everyone! Starting next year, juniors will join us, so I need to become a better student, right?”
***
The semester is over.
Lumeria City would normally be noisy, but everyone was quiet.
Lumern and Lumeria City had not yet escaped Calian’s death.
Meanwhile, Leo headed to the warp gate with his friends.
“It was fun for a year, but it will all fall apart in the second year.”
Illyana licked her lips with a disappointed look on her face.
Looking at Illyana like that, Karl put his arm on the back of her head and said.
“But you still see it in department classes, right? “From the second year onwards, academic classes become more important.”
It was just as Carl said.
In the first year, emphasis is placed on class-specific classes, but from the second year onwards, departmental classes become more important.
“But we won’t be able to play in groups like we do now.”
“Even if we are in different classes, we can hang out often.”
Tade nodded at Nella’s words.
“that’s right. “No one left school.”
We arrived at the warp gate chatting happily with each other.
“Then have a nice vacation.”
“See you all after the semester is over~”
“Or did you get together once during this vacation?”
“Is that so?”
After chatting happily, we each boarded the warp gate heading home.
Leo and Chelsea, heading to the western region, headed to the warp gate to the western region.
“Leo, will you go home right away?”
Leo shook his head at that question.
“no. This time, I decided to go to the Rodren Empire.”
Chelsea’s eyes widened at Leo’s words and she smiled brightly.
“and! “Then you can do your homework with me!”
“well. Because I’m visiting my mother’s family. “I don’t know if I’ll have time.”
“ah.”
Chelsea exclaimed at Leo’s words and then looked disappointed.
Leo’s maternal family is Gerdinger.
They get along well at school, but within the Rodren Empire, Jerdinger and Lwalin are rivals.
“Still, if I get the chance, I’ll stop by the Lwalin family.”
“huh!”
Chelsea nodded and was happy at Leo’s words.
“Are you here?”
Celia and Abad were waiting at the warp gate.
Leo stood next to Celia and Chelsea turned to Abad.
Abad, who had already heard from Celia that Leo was coming to the Rodraine Empire, smiled and greeted Leo.
“I’ll see you if I can during vacation.”
“I already talked about that with Chelsea.”
Leo said with a grin and Abad nodded.
“Then let’s go first.”
“Leo oppa~ Bye! Celia… … hemp cloth!”
Chelsea smiled broadly and waved at Leo, then stuck her tongue out at Celia.
Celia said as she watched the figure disappear through the warp with a bright light.
“You should catch me sometime and feed me a honey chestnut.”
“Then won’t we be in the same class next year?”
“Can you please stop saying horrible things?”
Celia rolled her eyes at Leo’s words.
Leo burst out laughing at that and got on the warp gate.
“Let’s go.”
“okay.”
Two people stood at the warp gate.
As the warp gate coordinates were set and the wizards activated their magic, a bright light burst out.
After a while.
A bright light obscured my vision.
The light faded and we arrived at the warp gate of the Gerdinger family.
One family’s warp gate.
As expected from the warp gate of Jerdinger, one of the two major mountain ranges of Rodren, the hegemony of the west, the inside of the warp gate was magnificent.
Leo exclaimed in exclamation as he looked at the statues of knights made of marble.
After looking around for a while, Leo saw the phoenix carved on the ceiling and said.
“It’s much more gorgeous than the warp gate in our country’s capital.”
“Because this is another main gate of Gerdinger.”
Celia smiled proudly as she looked at her surprised cousin.
When I came down the warp gate and went outside, the knights were waiting.
“welcome! Miss Celia! Congratulations on being promoted to second grade!”
“Congratulations!”
The knights who came to meet Celia congratulated her all at once.
In response to their reactions, Celia brushed her hair and spoke calmly.
“Is that something to celebrate?”
Although the other students were truly happy, Celia showed no such sign.
In a way, it’s natural.
Celia is renowned as a genius who is closely watched not only by the Rodren Empire but also by the entire continent.
For her, going to second grade was a very natural thing.
“Don’t make a fuss.”
The knights bowed their heads at Celia’s words.
Meanwhile, everyone’s eyes turned to Leo this time.
“But, young lady, the person next to you… … ?”
At that question, Celia glanced at Leo and said calmly.
“Leo Plov. He’s my cousin. “You all know, right?”
“Huh?”
“Master Leo?”
The knights looked surprised.
Leo looked puzzled at their reaction.
“what? “You sang a song about spending the first month of vacation at Sjerdinger, but you didn’t tell me I was coming?”
Celia chuckled at Leo’s question.
“huh. “I didn’t tell you so I could surprise everyone.”
Leo chuckled as he watched his cousin talk playfully.
Celia got into the waiting carriage as if she was used to it.
Leo also followed Celia and got into the carriage.
The carriage carrying the two people started running.
The carriage led by the griffon quickly crossed the Gerdinger home.
Leo was amazed as he watched the scenery outside pass quickly by.
“There is no end in sight.”
The place where Leo and Celia came was Gerdinger’s home.
In other words, it is Gerdinger’s territory.
As they are also the Duke of Rodren, their territory is vast.
But even so, the end of the main house site was not in sight.
Celia laughed at Leo’s words.
“The site of our family mansion must be several times larger than your country’s royal palace?”
Leo rested his chin at those words.
“The rich are rich.”
“You’re the only one who treats the Gerdingers as just a rich family.”
Celia, with a bewildered expression on her face, shook her head.
The carriage led by the griffon ran quickly and arrived at Gerdinger’s main castle.
Looking up at the huge Jerdinger Castle, Leo was amazed again.
The old castle looked like a fortress at first glance.
‘Amazing?’
It was when Leo was surprised.
There were so many people standing in front of the main headquarters that it was incomparable to the warp gate, as if they had received a call from the main family.
In the middle of them stood Zis, the head of the Gerdinger family, and next to him were people who appeared to be elders.
Leo and Celia got off the carriage and approached Jis.
Jis spoke reproachfully to Celia who came in front of him.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming with Leo?”
“I wanted to surprise you.”
Celia laughed mischievously.
Jis burst out laughing at the sight, shook his head and looked at Leo.
“Welcome to Gerdinger, Leo.”
“Thank you for the welcome. But aren’t you welcoming me too grandly?”
Jis grinned at Leo’s words.
“This is your first visit as a direct descendant of Gerdinger. In the first place, it would be right to make more grand preparations.”
“I didn’t tell you because I knew you wouldn’t like that.”
Celia said, tapping Leo on the shoulder.
“What about Dad?”
“My brother is in the capital. He will be back this evening.”
Celia nodded at those words.
“Then there is something I have to do before your brother comes.”
Jis glanced at Leo.
“Leo.”
“Yes, Uncle Jis.”
“I’ve just arrived at the mansion, and I’m sorry, but I feel like I need to tell you something a bit complicated.”
“What is the story?”
Jis said, looking at Leo who had a puzzled expression.
“It’s a story about inheritance.”
