603.
Leo said as he looked at the people who were in groups of two.
“It was decided fairly by drawing lots, so no one has any objections, right?”
“Master Leo! I have an objection! A man like this incompetent man! “I don’t understand!”
“For this one time, I agree with this fair-haired woman!”
Men and women rebel as soon as they finish speaking.
Leo looked at Niel and Machel with a sour expression.
“I think it’s fate.”
Lots were drawn a total of three times.
This is because Niel and Machel, who were in the same group in the first lottery, strongly opposed it.
Afterwards, in the lottery that followed, we ended up in the same group again, and we ended up in the same group again for the third time.
At this point, it becomes embarrassing to form a group again because of these two people.
“There is a saying that the first time is coincidence, the second is inevitable, and the third is fate, right?”
“Chelsea girl! “Such a terrible sound!”
As Chelsea giggled and mumbled, Machel gave a resounding rejection.
It was the same for Niel.
“Master Leo! Please change it! Or just do it one more time!”
Chelsea said as she looked at Machel and Niel, who were crying and reacting almost like a fit.
“no. Don’t change it. go back.”
In the case of Chelsea, after three draws, they ended up in the same group as Leo.
When it didn’t work for Leo, Niel looked at Celia.
Celia was looking at Abad standing next to her with disapproving eyes.
Niel spoke to Celia, who was in the same group as Abad.
“Lady Celia! “Miss, you also want to change groups, right?”
Celia sighed softly as she watched Niel pull her in.
“Niel, you’ve already chosen me three times. And I’m okay.”
Celia had become quite close to Abad since becoming a second year student.
We crossed countless lines together and worked together every time in the process, so it was impossible not to build up close friendships.
It was when Niel, who had failed to attract Celia, was trying to somehow ask someone else for help.
“That’s so cringe-inducing.”
“Leo, Master Leo?”
Niel trembled as he looked at Leo muttering softly.
“You two.”
“yes!”
“yep!”
Niel and Machel unconsciously stood at attention under Leo’s cold gaze.
Leo used to treat the two of them like they were seniors at school, but now there was nothing like that.
“Are your families enemies?”
“As the Rhoda family is a vassal family of Gerdinger, it is naturally different from the vassal family of Lwalin… … .”
“Are Gerdinger and Lwalin enemies of the Great Heaven? “Are we going to kill each other?”
“that… … “No.”
“Did the Roda family and Luzia family kill each other as ancestors?”
“… … no… … .”
“But why are we so upset that we can’t eat each other? what? Are you going to fight like this in front of the demons of Tartarus? uh? Say no. Try it. Do babies with no blood on their heads growl when they meet each other as if they are enemies? what? Have you ever met your real enemy? uh? Have you met him?!”
Due to Leo’s unusual spirit, people around him secretly avoided him.
Niel and Machel were bowing their heads in front of Leo without even saying a word.
Even though they are juniors in school, they know that Leo’s skills quickly surpassed theirs.
They felt like they were more adults than them in every way, and right now they were in a situation where even if they had ten mouths, they had nothing to say.
It was natural for them to be scolded because they were behaving indecently and causing trouble to those around them due to their personal feelings.
However, Niel and Machel could not help but shudder at this familiar yet foreign feeling.
‘W-what is it? Master Leo is definitely younger than us.’
‘Why does it seem like I’m getting scolded by someone so much older than me?’
Leo spoke to the two who were sweating profusely and becoming frightened.
“It was my time!”
“Oppa Leo.”
At that time, Chelsea cautiously called out to Leo.
“Do you think we can stop now?”
Leo smiled at Niel and Machel.
“Since we are already in the same group, take this opportunity to become friends.”
Niel and Machel nodded absently as they looked at Leo, who had completely disappeared from his fearsome atmosphere and had returned to his original appearance.
“You are both adults who have had a coming-of-age ceremony, so don’t have childish accidents anymore.”
The two people saw Leo’s eyes narrow for an instant and nodded frantically.
Leo, with a satisfied expression on his face, looked at the other attendants.
“Then everyone, have fun and I’ll see you tomorrow.”
At those words, Jerdinger’s knights and Lwalin’s wizards looked at each other with complicated faces.
***
Leo and Chelsea walked down the street.
Chelsea, who was following Leo, suddenly felt the difference in strides and muttered to herself.

‘When I think about it, I don’t think the height difference was this much when I entered school, but now it’s quite a lot.’
As Chelsea is also in her growth period, she has grown quite a bit compared to when she entered school.
However, because Leo was much older than Chelsea, there was a clear difference.
Chelsea increased her walking speed to keep pace with Leo.
Leo, who didn’t pay attention to his stride, might have been a bit harsh, but Chelsea didn’t care about that.
Now I know.
‘For the past two years, while we went to Lumern together, Leo continued to take care of me.’
Don’t let Chelsea give up on moving forward.
‘Like someone teaching you how to run.’
You can’t be treated like that forever.
‘I don’t want to hold back Leo.’
Now, all Chelsea wants is not to watch the back of someone she admires.
Standing together and looking at the scenery that the person you admire is looking at.
Leo, who was walking through the crowd, stopped.
Chelsea, who was standing slightly behind Leo, looked up at him.
‘What does Leo look like when he sees the scenery?’
Chelsea, who was thinking this to herself, raised her feet on tiptoes and tried to raise her height to the point where Leo was looking at her as much as possible.
Chelsea whined for a moment before bursting into laughter without realizing it.
‘I feel so stupid too. There’s no way I can understand what Leo looks at just because our heights are similar like this.’
It was an action I did without realizing it because I wanted to get closer to someone I admired.
“What are you doing?”
“Nothing.”
Chelsea, who had been scolding Leo who asked with a puzzled look, got on tiptoe.
“Anyway, where should I choose to stay?”
“Well, since we are penniless, shouldn’t we start by finding money?”
“I have a question. Why did you insist on grouping the people of Gerdinger and the people of Lwalin into two groups and going on a penniless tour?”
What Leo proposed was not simple tourism.
People from rival families were randomly drawn by lottery and told to spend a day without money.
“I understand that Leo is trying to create an opportunity for Gerdinger and Lwalin to become friends, but is there a need to go this far?”
“If you want to become friends with people you don’t get along with, you have to go through hard times.”
“Is that a penniless trip?”
“You’re not just penniless, are you?”
Leo chuckled.
Before everyone disperses.
Leo set the rules for this day.
first. You start sightseeing without having a single penny with you.
second. The use of auras and magic is prohibited.
third. Never sleep on the street.
fourth. don’t fight
The attendants of the two families couldn’t help but shudder when Leo said that if they broke even one of these instructions, they would have an interesting experience.
For Chelsea, it was a bit questionable whether something like this could create an opportunity for them to become closer.
“It’s surprisingly effective. “This is also the method that Lisinas used.”
“Risinas?”
Chelsea’s eyes widened at Leo’s words.
“Wait a minute, so that means the great heroes didn’t get along well at first? “How bad was it that you took such extraordinary measures?”
Leo chuckled as he looked at Chelsea, whose eyes were sparkling with excitement.
“Me and Luna.”
“Eh? “Leo and Luna?”
Chelsea looked embarrassed.
Last time Luna was in Lumern.
Leo and Luna were pretenders.
It seemed like they knew what each other wanted just by looking at their eyes.
Chelsea couldn’t help but be embarrassed to hear that the two people who showed such perfect chemistry had a bad relationship with each other.
“Because Luna and I had polar opposite personalities from the moment we first met.”
The relationship between Luna, who boasted that she could do anything and was confident in everything, and Kyle, who looked at everything crookedly, was bound to be strained from the beginning.
Moreover, Kyle at the time had a very cynical side.
That’s why I didn’t hesitate to throw harsh words at Luna.
‘Lisinas is the type to hold back and then burst out, but Luna used to attack right away.’
While Kyle has a quirky personality, Luna has an eccentric personality.
Seeing the two clashing with each other day after day, Risinas, who was no longer in control, took special measures.
“That happened. What can I say? “I don’t think I would have ever believed those words if they had come out of Leo’s mouth.”
Chelsea giggled.
“Leo, who is like me and Celia, and Luna. “I can’t imagine.”
‘There was no comparison between you and Celia.’
Leo laughed and muttered to himself.
However, for his and Luna’s honor, he did not bother to talk about it.
“So you were wandering around the city penniless with Luna like we are now?”
“No, that can’t be.”
“huh?”
“That Rishinas sealed the mana of me and Luna and threw them into the middle of a forest full of monsters.”
Chelsea looked surprised at Leo’s words.
“Is that even possible, Lishinas-sama?”
To seal the strongest wizard in history and someone with comparable power at the same time.
“As Risinas’ specialty is summoning, he is also good at writing fraudulent contracts.”
“Say, fraudulent contract?”
Leo said angrily as he looked at Chelsea, who had an angry expression on her face.
“okay. That lizard’s specialty is cheating. “Did you see that he scammed me into getting married?”
“… … .”
Chelsea was at a loss as to how to react to Leo’s words.
“Anyway. “If you go through some hardships, you will develop a sense of cooperation.”
“Will I suffer?”
Chelsea still had doubts.
The entourage on this trip was all made up of young people with little world experience.
However, no matter how bad they are at using Aurors and magic, they are attendants who assist Jerdinger and Lwalin.
They are all people who have been evaluated as excellent talents since childhood.
Chelsea didn’t think such people would suffer.
“You’re going to have a lot of trouble unexpectedly, aren’t you?”
“huh? why?”
“These are guys from noble families who have walked the path of the elite. Using auras and magic is more natural than breathing. In such a situation, status, wealth, and ability are all restricted. “You’re going to have a hard time?”
Although they are vassals, they are all from noble families.
If you try to do something, you will inevitably be embarrassed.
“Is that so?”
Chelsea kept tilting her head as if she didn’t understand Leo’s words.
Looking at Chelsea like that, Leo chuckled.
“I’ll understand if I try from now on.”
“huh?”
“How about first finding a place to stay for the day?”
“alone?”
Chelsea pointed at herself with her hand and opened her eyes.
“If I step forward, it will be resolved easily. “Then you’re not suffering, are you?”
“Of course.”
“So try hard on your own.”
“Somehow I feel like I am supporting Leo.”
“no?”
“No, I think it would be fun.”
Chelsea said confidently.
“After all, these are things that Carl has always done simply, right?”
Ahem! Chelsea said triumphantly, puffing out her chest.
“Just wait and see, today I will take Leo on a luxury tour!”
