517.
The lounge of Noble Dormitory.
As always, Eliza was sitting on the luxurious chair, crossing her legs and trimming the tips of her fingernails.
Around her, the students of Noble’s Summoning Department were secretly watching her.
“Eh, Eliza. “You haven’t been going anywhere lately?”
A female student from the Summoning Department spoke cautiously.
Eliza blew on her fingernails and checked her trimmed nails.
Seeing Eliza’s reaction, the Summoning Department students looked frustrated.
Eliza is the de facto leader of the second-year summoning department.
Of course, that doesn’t mean Eliza is the top student in the Summoning Department.
In terms of grades alone, she is an honor student competing with Wareden for first or second place, but she often skips classes.
The class participation rate is low and there are many times when he even sleeps.
He even often asks students who follow him to run personal errands.
If you look at things other than grades, he is definitely a bad student.
Still, the reason she was the leader of the second-year summoning department was because Warrenden had strong individualistic tendencies.
Even though Eliza may be unfaithful, she definitely leads the Summoning Department students as a leader.
The professors in the Summoning Department also recognized Eliza because of her excellent grades and personality.
And the last week.
Eliza was just staying in the dormitory and doing nothing.
I am not attending classes or participating in the reconstruction of Lumeria City.
He always had a bored expression, but in the past few days, the expression on his face had disappeared.
As a result, the Summoning Department students who followed her felt suffocated.
‘Why are you doing this?’
‘Well, well? ‘What happened?’
It was when the Summoning Department students exchanged glances.
“It’s annoying.”
Eliza, who had been paying no attention to her surroundings for several days, suddenly opened her mouth.
“what?”
“Everyone disappear.”
“what… … .”
“I’m telling you to disappear from my sight because it’s annoying.”
The Summoning Department students flinched when they saw Eliza talking irritably and irritably, and soon dispersed.
Although Eliza had a tyrant temperament, she was generous to those who followed her. This nervous appearance was the first time the students in her faction had seen it since entering school.
Eliza, who had been silent and left alone in the lounge, gritted her teeth and stood up.
‘Pathetic.’
The reason she was stuck in the dormitory was because of something that happened a week ago.
Eliza felt something at the gathering of top 2nd graders.
‘I’m the only one who didn’t grow up.’
Feeling stuffy, Eliza entered her dorm room.
Squeak-clack-
Then I closed the door and fell down on the bed.
‘Until summer vacation started, I never thought I was falling behind anyone among the second graders.’
Eliza, who had been thinking that far, paused and smiled self-deprecatingly.
‘No, there is one.’
There is one person who has been left out of the discussion at some point.
‘Leo Plov.’
Leo was the first wall Eliza felt in her life.
That’s why I’m always conscious.
‘I don’t know about other people, but at least not me.’
Eliza made a sour expression.
For Eliza, Leo was a ‘reference point’.
‘As a summoner and also as a hero. Because the man named Leo Plov is perfect.’
Other than that, there were no special feelings.
He could never accept that someone was over his head, but he had no choice but to admit it to Leo.
‘I did… … .’
Eliza’s face was cruelly distorted.
When the Necromancer attacked Lumern.
He ended up seeing the backs of his classmates, whom he considered equal.
Until I entered Rumern.
Eliza had no doubt that she was the best.
In fact, her talent was worthy of being called the best of her generation.
Now, I know very well that I can’t be the best because of the unfathomable monster that is Leo Plov.
Even so, I was confident that I was at least not behind among my classmates.
Her confidence was shattered.
‘Limit?’
Eliza pursed her lips and looked down at her palms.
Even if you don’t want to be conscious of it, you can’t help but be conscious of it.
I have seen countless students who boasted all their lives that they were the best, but then failed at Lumern.

I laughed at them then, but not now.
I wonder if I’m the only one sitting down while everyone else is running.
In the end, he wonders if he will fall behind like those he laughed at.
Eliza felt fear for the first time in the competitive system of Rumern.
‘It’s my problem, but I can’t believe I’m getting on my nerves with people around me. ‘I did it too.’
That was when Eliza buried her nose into the pillow with a bitter smile.
Shock-!
I heard something coming under the dormitory door.
When I slightly lifted my upper body and turned my head, there was a letter.
‘It’s annoying at times like these.’
Eliza wrinkled her face.
Eliza competes with Duran for being the best in the second year of school when it comes to having a bad temper, but she is an incredibly beautiful girl.
She also has many arrogant followers.
In addition, he has the position of successor to the Hergin family, the most prestigious summoning family in the northern part of the continent.
I received hundreds of love letters.
Of course, Eliza had never read that love letter.
I burned all the letters I received.
‘joy. If you like me that much, confess it proudly.’
I had no interest in confessing without even having the courage to confess without seeing his face.
Of course, even if I confessed it to his face, I had no intention of accepting it.
It was impossible for a person who was not interested in the first place to catch my eye.
Eliza approached the door and tried to tear the envelope of the letter.
Then, I suddenly noticed the name written on the envelope and paused.
‘Carl Thomas?’
Eliza’s eyes twitched.
‘Why did this person write to me?’
I snorted, but I also got curious.
Normally, she would have torn it mercilessly, but Eliza was opening the envelope without realizing it and checking the contents.
‘I have a story to tell you. I’ll be waiting for you at the dormitory training center at midnight today. Carl Thomas.’
“Are you cocky?”
Eliza looked appalled at the simple content.
“funny? Who are you, telling me to come or go? “I need to understand the topic.”
Eliza let out her signature sneer and neatly folded the letter into the envelope.
Ttogak- Ttogak-
Whoosh – Eliza, who threw the letter on top of the book, was about to lie down on the bed when she stopped in front of the full-length mirror on one side of the room.
Eliza glanced at her reflection in the mirror and smoothed her hair.
I didn’t know why, but I felt my depressed mood go away a little.
I hummed softly without realizing it and sat down at the dressing table.
And then he smiled brightly.
‘It would be fun to trample them mercilessly.’
***
“… … .”
Eliza’s face crumpled when she saw this person standing at the meeting place.
“I was waiting, Eliza.”
Eliza crossed her arms at Leo’s words.
“I can’t believe someone like the student council president was waiting for me. I don’t know what to do with myself. “But wasn’t it Carl Thomas who called me?”
“Me too!”
Karl, who appeared behind Leo, gave a thumbs up and smiled mischievously.
“It is not Karl Thomas who has something to say to me, but Leo Plov. “So it was you?”
“okay.”
“ha. “I should just sleep.”
Eliza muttered irritably.
Leo said while looking at Eliza.
“It’s important.”
Eliza paused at those words and then snorted.
“It must be something important enough to call me at this late hour.”
Of course, Eliza knew that Leo was not the type of person to talk nonsense, so she knew that it was a really important story.
I only said one word because, due to Eliza’s personality, I had to say something to calm my anger.
Leo nodded, looking at Eliza.
Carl said while looking at Eliza.
“By the way, Eliza. “Are you pretty today?”
“I’m the same as usual.”
Eliza answered harshly.
However, unlike usual, his tone of voice was a little softer.
“Perfect full makeup this early in the morning…” … i get it! My intention is to go meet a man after this… … ?”
Whirring! grasp-!
“Whoa? Kekekekekekeek!”
“Do you think I’m a promiscuous woman who comes out early in the morning to meet men?”
“You’re popular, so you can go on a date now that you’re out…” … .”
“I don’t do anything like that.”
Sigh-!
“Kukukukuk!”
Eliza wrapped Carl’s neck around the whip she always carried with her and pulled her in front of her, strangling Carl’s neck violently and becoming hysterical.
Looking at that scene, Leo said indifferently.
“We’re still on good terms.”
“Who is getting along well?”
Eliza answered sharply, putting the knife aside.
“so? “What is an important story?”
“I heard the story from Carl. “I heard you’re quite impatient.”
“So what? “Are you trying to make fun of me for standing still on my own?”
Eliza gave a sharp reaction.
From the beginning, Eliza saw Leo as someone she had to catch up with.
As such, he was in a position where he could not help but accept Leo’s concerns and help as they were.
Leo burst into laughter as he looked at the ‘competitiveness’ in Eliza’s eyes.
“Okay, laugh as much as you want. Leo Plov.”
“That’s not what I meant.”
Leo shook his head.
“Sometimes you forget you’re kids.”
“… … That’s a very strange thing to say. “I know you have a childish side, but I am older than you.”
Eliza also burst into laughter at the sudden remark.
Leo said while looking at Eliza.
“It’s not that you’re particularly inferior to other kids. “It’s just that the environment is a little different.”
“… … .”
“Chloe and Abad stimulate each other knowingly or unknowingly. We have similar aspects and we discuss often. “He’s definitely a good competitor.”
“There’s also Chelsea. Well, in Chelsea’s case, they are strong in saying to Celia, ‘We can’t lose’ and gritting our teeth.”
Karl, who escaped Eliza’s whip, put his clasped hands behind his head and said.
“Celia and Duran. In the case of Chen Xia, we also see each other as rivals.”
Leo said, giving examples of the Department of Magic and the Department of Knights.
“But you have no competition.”
Although there are Waredens, Waredens are not the type with a particularly strong sense of competition.
He is the type that simply pursues ‘strength’ and runs forward with integrity.
When I first entered first grade, Eliza argued with me several times, but I just ignored her.
“I don’t consider him a rival… … “You know what I mean, right?”
“Tsk!”
Eliza gritted her teeth.
Leo said while looking at Eliza.
“Certainly, summoners grow slowly.”
“Are you giving me advice not to rush because time will tell? “I really appreciate the advice.”
Eliza chuckled.
Looking at Eliza like that, Leo sat down on a bench nearby and said.
“Well, it wouldn’t take long for you to jump over the wall. But while it’s great to jump over walls, isn’t it a bad time to learn how to force them to break down?”
“What do you mean?”
Leo curled the corners of his mouth.
“How long do you want me to wait?”
Eliza’s face immediately stiffened at those words.
I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth.
Eyes looking down at oneself from a high place.
It was the image of Leo that was shown earlier.
‘I really don’t like that waiting attitude!’
Sparks flew into Eliza’s eyes.
Leo said while looking at Eliza.
“Karl is worried about you a lot.”
“Are you Carl Thomas?”
Eliza glanced at Carl.
Carl shrugged his shoulders.
Eliza looked at the knife for a moment and took a deep breath.
“so? “How can you help me?”
“Are you prepared to do whatever I ask you to do?”
“As long as you don’t order me to do something strange.”
“then.”
“Are you prepared to die?”
