“Did you hear the story?”
“huh. “So second-year seniors stay out every day these days?”
“They say it’s a mock battle for each dorm. “The scale will be no joke as the entire second grade participates.”
“When are we going to have such a large-scale mock battle?”
Lumern 1st grade parade ground.
During a break in a joint combat studies class, students shared stories.
The first year students were hectic thanks to their first midterm exam after entering Lumern.
Of course, the pressure itself was not great compared to other jockeys.
Every year, the midterm exam in the first semester of the first year is evaluated as the threshold of death for Lumern students.
However, these first year students are not advised to drop out until the end of the first semester.
So, unlike other jockeys, I was able to have some time to look around.
“Hmm. we. “Don’t you feel like it’s a bit of a bonus?”
Juen muttered in a slightly annoyed voice.
Usually, when it comes to first semester midterms, first year students receive the biggest spotlight.
It was an event that attracted attention from all grades, and it was also an opportunity for new faces who entered Lumern to show off their skills to the school’s seniors.
However, the big event that received the spotlight this time was the midterm practical exam for second graders.
On rare occasions, it is even open to outside guests.
Many people are already coming to Lumeria City to see the golden generation of second year students in action.
Fritz, who was in the same class, laughed at Juen’s grumbling.
“Isn’t it obvious?”
“what?”
“It’s only natural that being a first-year student would be a bonus in front of Senior Leo’s radiant youth… … .”
“Oh yeah. okay. “It was my mistake to ask you, a Leo Plov fanatic.”
Juen sighed deeply.
“I have a question. Why did you become Abad’s mentee? “If you praise Leo like that, doesn’t that mean you have to become his mentee?”
“what! How dare someone like me become senior Leo’s mentee? “Do you mean to commit such rudeness!?”
“You are really in serious condition.”
It was when Juen shook his head excitedly.
“Juen.”
“why?”
“Your mentor came?”
“huh? “Senior Carl came?”
Juen’s eyes widened at the words of a female student in his class.
Then he burst into laughter.
“Really. Even though senior Carl is busy, he always takes care of his cute juniors.”
Juen stood up and looked proud.
Then, eyes filled with envy from those around them turned to Juen.
Among the second year students, the student who served as a mentor most enthusiastically was Carl.
Of course, for that reason, first-year students do not envy Juen.
Even if you take good care of him, Carl is in the bottom 2nd grade.
Even when first-year students were looking for a mentor, the second-year student who was most avoided was Karl.
When Juen first adopted Karl as his mentor, most of the first-year students were dumbfounded.
He whispered behind his back that he didn’t care about mentees because he was the heir of the Southern Magic Tower.
There were even people who said behind their backs that it was a clever move to stand out by picking a poor mentee.
However, that perspective completely changed after Carl invaded the world of Dweno.
Even after it became known that he had obtained Dweno’s Alchemy Book as a reward for conquering the Dweno world, he became so envious as now.
Juen walked lightly towards the entrance of the 1st year combat science training ground.
And I stopped when I saw first graders gathered there.
Among the first graders was Carl.
“ruler! pick! pick! Senior Karl’s all-purpose store has arrived!”
Like a merchant at Dottegi Market, Carl was shouting at the first graders.
The first graders looked at Carl with interest.
“Fatigue recovery potions and candies to help you study during the exam! A moving target to help with combat training! punching bag! A favorite snack for phantom beasts! Even the magic stones that spirits love! “There is nothing missing!”
Karl placed various weapons on the table.
“ruler! And there are bombs and throwing daggers for emergency use in battle! A detox potion that recovers from abnormal conditions! “Even an emergency magic scroll!”
“Oooh!”
“Good!”
The first graders’ eyes sparkled as they heard Carl’s promotion.
“Definitely.”
Carl grinned and shook! He took out a card in his hand.
On the back of the card with the Lumern Academy emblem was a picture of second graders.
“For our best customers, we even receive cards for 2nd graders and pretty girls!”
“Oooh… … .”
“Yes, it’s Nella senior!”
“and! Senior Abad!”
The first graders’ eyes sparkled.
“For your information, this is a photo from when I was in first grade!”

“gulp… … .”
“Take it, I want it.”
The eyes of first-year students wavered at the rare photos of their second-year seniors.
“Hmph, that’s pathetic.”
At that time, Haviden appeared through the crowd.
Rickyden Brick was standing next to Harveyden.
He was a student from the famous knight family of the Birsen family, who had taken classes with first-year students in Lumern together with Haviden last year.
Rickyden, who was sparring with Karl at that time, smiled and greeted Karl.
“Oh, my prince. “You have walked into squalor.”
Carl smiled and greeted, and Harveyden crossed his arms.
“Senior Carl. It is now break time for first year classes. “I think it would be a hindrance to the students’ ability to rest, especially if you come here during combat classes.”
“… … You are just like your mentor. “He’s the type of person who sticks to the rules even when it seems like he would break them like eating.”
“What is your intention?”
“It’s a compliment. compliment. “He’s an honor student.”
Although Duran is always full of authority, he absolutely follows the rules.
He was literally an example of an honor student.
Haviden looked at Karl with slightly dissatisfied eyes, but did not say anything more.
It’s not simply because Carl is one year older.
This is because, based on last year’s experience, I recognized that Karl is someone I will respect as a senior.
Anyway, for now, I had to drive out this peddler who was disturbing my classmates’ rest.
‘Aina, the grade representative, is basically indifferent to anything other than her work. Sasha and Juen secretly break the school rules for things that seem fun.’
Ironically, among the four first-year students who were evaluated as the most promising, the most prosperous honor student was Habidden.
“Anyway, let’s clean up the stall.”
“That thing is really hard.”
Carl grunted.
Harveyden said calmly while looking at the knife.
“I will call Professor Halind.”
At those words, Carl approached Haviden.
Haviden looked at the knife without even batting an eye.
“Don’t be too harsh, okay?”
“What are you doing… … .”
Harveyden, who had crumpled his face as he watched the knife subtly stabbing something into his arms, flinched.
The card Carl inserted showed Chelsea wearing summer clothes, smiling brightly and drawing a V with her finger.
“Is it because everyone wants to like me and you?”
“Tsk!”
Harbiden looked conflicted.
“… … .”
Juen, who was watching this from afar, made a cold expression.
“oh! Juen! Do you want to buy something too?”
Carl smiled brightly and waved at his mentee, Juen.
“Juen Torvina. “Senior Carl is calling you?”
Juen said coldly in response to the words of Fritz, who came with him.
“I don’t know anyone that stupid.”
And I tried to hit the mark.
Carl made his way through the crowd and approached Juen.
“Hey! Everyone comes out to meet their senior! Amazing! “It’s amazing!”
“who are you?”
Juen pretended not to notice, but Carl didn’t care and took something out of his pocket.
“now. Don’t sulk. “Take this.”
“What is this?”
“I made a magic bullet.”
Juen, who was good at sniping magic, created and used separate magic bullets in addition to his own magic power.
Carl created a special bullet tailored to the user’s magic pattern.
“It’s for testing. “It’s a close-range check and a four-attribute bullet.”
“Hoo. “Did you make it well?”
“Because it’s your mentor.”
Carl said with a grin.
Juen smiled brightly as he looked at the knife.
“thank you! senior.”
Juen clung to Karl’s arm with a cute expression on his face.
“In that sense, I’m a senior~! “Can you give my cute mentee a recovery potion?”
Kal smiled brightly as he saw Juen asking in a fawning voice and gave him a bottle of potion.
‘Heh, look. My mentor even brings a fatigue recovery potion for my cute junior! ‘I’m jealous!’
Juen looked at his classmates and said, “Whoa!” He smiled and took a sip of the potion.
Sze-
Carl held out his palm.
“… … “What is it?”
“It will only be five shillings.”
“… … “You want to take money from a cute junior?”
“Let us be thorough in our public and private life. “You can’t return it because you took one sip.”
Juen’s face distorted as he looked at Karl speaking sternly.
“Please shave it off.”
“no. “You are the daughter of the magic tower owner, so you have a lot of money.”
“Eight!”
Juen took out five shillings from his pocket and gave it to Karl.
Kal chuckled as he saw Juen pouting his lips.
“senior. “Are you really here to do business?”
Looking at Juen who was reacting like he was upset, Carl said, jingling his pockets.
“no. “I came to give you some test bullets.”
Carl grinned.
“I came to gather information.”
“Information?”
Juen paused.
‘What else is this person planning?’
Juen’s eyes lit up.
Why did you choose Carl as your mentor?
That’s because I thought there was something I could learn from Carl.
In fact, Carl was good at gathering information and planning various strategies based on that information.
It was an ability that Juen, who had received only elite education throughout her life as the daughter of a magic tower lord, did not have.
I stopped not far away and watched Carl doing business with the first graders.
In addition to Juen, Carl was acquainted with most of the first year students.
‘for a moment.’
And Juen noticed something.
‘You all know who’s mentee, right?’
Juen opened his eyes wide.
Carl knew exactly who the first year students’ mentees were.
At the same time, the conversation with the second graders continued naturally.
Recess time is almost over.
Juen approached Karl, who was organizing the stall, and asked in a whisper.
“You used first-year students to gather information about second-year students?”
Karl shrugged his shoulders as he looked at Juen, whose eyes were shining brightly.
“Did you see it? We’re not at the stage of gathering information yet. “It’s just a natural way to spread rice cakes.”
Carl grinned.
“A mentor and a mentee are close, just like the relationship between you and me. We naturally talk about life in the department. “I think there are some kids who talk about the competition to their juniors.”
It was clear that even first-year students would be wary if they asked about the mock battle from the beginning.
So, by taking this natural approach and bringing out the mentor’s story, I naturally lowered my guard.
“Well, I don’t know if I’ll be able to get any useful information, but wouldn’t it be better than nothing?”
Juen was impressed as he saw Kal winking one eye playfully.
“Senior, do you know that you look cool today?”
“Heh. Do you know now? In that sense, I will give you a discount on the fatigue recovery potion.”
“Half price?”
“no. “For four shillings.”
It was when Juen burst into laughter.
“Is guts the only thing that has improved since becoming a sophomore? Carl Thomas.”
A cold voice was heard.
Carl’s face turned white.
“The combat science class is a physically demanding class. You’re thinking of disrupting my class by taking away my recess. “You’ve grown a lot.”
Carl’s body trembled as he turned his head.
Halind was there with a cold smile.
“sorry! I’m really sorry! I didn’t mean to do that! Professor Halind! sorry!”
Carl’s waist continued to bend 90 degrees.
The first graders giggled at the sight of Karl like that.
Juen ignored the knife.
“Juen, what did you talk about with senior Karl?”
“knife? Who is that? “I don’t know anyone like that.”
Juen answered a question from a female classmate in a cold voice.
