“Death Knight?”
“A Death Knight in a sacred sanctuary.”
Halind and Rune looked serious after receiving Leo’s report.
“I can’t believe it.”
However, the bespectacled elf sitting in Rune’s office raised a question.
“Undoubtedly, monsters began appearing in the Fairy Forest a long time ago, tragically. But it’s not a death knight. “There is no such precedent, is there?”
The elf shook his head and asked Leo.
“Are you really sure you saw the Death Knight?”
“There’s no reason to say you saw something you didn’t see, right?”
“I’m not saying you’re lying. Lumern student. We received reports from our students that skeletons had appeared. So, I came here to talk to the President of the National Assembly. But we haven’t received any reports about the Death Knight.”
‘I guess he’s a professor from Seirun.’
Seilun’s teacher asked, adjusting his glasses.
“Lumern student. Have you ever seen an undead in your life?”
“Not in this life.”
“Then you might have mistaken the Skeleton Knight for a Death Knight. “It is a relatively common misconception.”
‘I only count the Death Knights I defeated in my past life, so how can I be mistaken?’
Leo said, laughing.
“I guess Seirun’s students often make mistakes?”
At those words, Teacher Seilun paused and cleared his throat.
“Hmm. “This is a mistake our students sometimes make too.”
After saying that, Teacher Seilun changed the topic.
“Anyway, I’m a Lumern student. If you were to face a Death Knight, it would be difficult to stay safe, right? This is a monster that is difficult for even our first year Seilun students to handle on their own. But are you saying that you escaped alone?”
“yes.”
“It seems like you are quite confident in your skills.”
He curled the corners of his mouth and spoke to Halind.
“What do you think, Professor Halind?”
“I believe what our students say. “Mr. Herdium.”
Herdium narrowed her eyes as she saw Halind speaking clearly, and this time she looked at the rune.
“What do you think, Chairman?”
“I’m not the kind of friend who would lie.”
Rune also said with a grin, and Herdium looked like there was nothing he could do about it.
“Let’s talk about Death Knight later.”
Halind and Herdium nodded at Rune’s words.
“Professor Halind, Leo. Let’s go first. “I have something to talk about separately with Teacher Herdium.”
“All right.”
Halind said hello and left the office with Leo.
“It looks like the schedule has changed.”
As I left the office, Halind muttered.
Leo gave a puzzled look at those words.
“You mean the schedule has changed?”
“Teacher Herdium is the homeroom teacher of Seilun first year upper class. “I heard that the whole class came here for mission training.”
Halind chuckled.
“Professor Herdium requested a joint class after learning that we were also here on a school trip.”
“Joint class?”
“We experience Seirun’s teaching method, and Seirun experiences Rumern’s teaching method.”
“Sounds like fun.”
“Of course it will be fun. But it shouldn’t just be fun. This is a great opportunity to broaden your horizons. It’s not something you can say you want to experience. In that sense, our class can be said to be lucky.”
“Yes.”
“Advanced Class 1 is a place where the best first-year students in Seirun are gathered. “It will be of great help to us.”
“Ohh.”
“Teacher Herdium invited us to dinner. “Go and announce it to the class.”
“yes.”
***
“Ugh! I can’t believe I can meet Seirun’s students!
“hey! how is it? “Is my hair set well?”
“Does this necklace suit you?”
The class 5 students were all excited ahead of the dinner party.
“Carl, what are you doing?”
Leo sat on the first floor and looked at Carl, who was making a booklet, with a puzzled expression on his face.
“Make a catalog. “Wouldn’t Seirun students also need the items I handle?”
Looking at Carl, who was grinning, Chelsea crossed her arms as if she were dumbfounded.
“Are you going to do business there?”
“It’s publicity, publicity. Well, I have no intention of doing it at that party. “I’m preparing to do business during the joint class starting tomorrow.”
Chelsea nodded at those words.
“Time is up. let’s go.”
When Leo checked his watch and spoke, the Class 5 students stood up.
And as soon as I leave.

“It’s cold!”
“If it’s like this, there’s no point in setting your hair!”
I screamed in the swirling snowstorm.
Carl chuckled as he looked at that.
“Are you guys stupid?”
Of course, I took it out for no reason and got showered with snowballs.
“I’m glad it’s close.”
Nella said with a grin.
Seilun’s accommodation was a luxury hotel right in front of Lumern’s accommodation.
“It was Seilun who rented the entire place. Sniff-! “It looks like he has a lot of financial resources.”
Carl snorted and Chelsea shrugged.
“Because Seilun is famous for being the richest among the hero military academies.”
The status of hero academies in each race is different.
Even in Rumern, there were many forces dissatisfied with the current system.
Because of Hero Records, the country’s top talents are forced to enroll in Lumern.
In the process, there are many people who achieve good positions in their countries after graduation, but there are also quite a few who join the hero guilds run by Lumern.
It is inevitable that there will be natural dissatisfaction with the outflow of talent from the country.
But Seilun was different.
Seirun itself served as the backbone of the Elven nation union, that is, it was one large force encompassing all of the Elves.
“Well, you said that the convenience that Rumern provides to students is like new blood compared to Seirun, right?”
“huh. In particular, elves consider ‘bloodline’ more important than us humans. So, it is safe to say that there are almost no students from obscure noble families or commoners like our school.”
“I guess the sense of authority is no joke.”
While Karl was sticking out his tongue.
Class 5 arrived at the hotel.
The waiter who was waiting in front of the hotel politely opened the door.
“Welcome, everyone.”
“I will take your coat.”
“Please give it to me.”
The waiters in the lobby politely accepted my coat.
Some students, like Chelsea, got over it with ease, while others, like Carl, floundered.
“Please come this way.”
The students, guided by the waiter, entered the hotel’s main banquet room.
“What is this all about?”
Carl muttered in a dazed voice.
The grand banquet room was luxurious itself.
“This is a party hosted by His Majesty the Emperor of our Empire?”
A famous family among famous families. Even from Lwalin’s direct descendant, Chelsea, it was overly flashy.
While everyone is surprised.
Herdium approached.
“welcome. Students of Rumern’s first year class 5. It may be lacking, but my name is Herdium Wintel, and I am teaching students in Seirun. “I would be grateful if you could call me Teacher Herdium.”
“Thank you for inviting me to the party, Ms. Herdium.”
Class 5 students greeted us politely.
“I hope this will be an opportunity to build deep friendships, as these are first-year students who will lead Seirun and Lumern in the future.”
After finishing speaking, Herdium smiled once and returned to his seat.
In the case of Halind and Sena, they had already arrived and were eating.
“First of all, I’m hungry, so shall we eat first?”
As Carl spoke while rubbing his hands, Chelsea glared at Carl.
“Don’t make a fuss without being polite like usual. Because the Seirun students are also watching.”
“I know very well. “I also have no intention of embarrassing the school.”
Although I am curious about Seirun Academy, before that, Rumern and Seirun are hero schools that have maintained a rivalry for a long time.
In particular, in recent years, Seilun has surpassed Rumern in various exchange events.
Lumern was looking for an opportunity to somehow overtake Seirun, and on the contrary, Seirun was trying to maintain its current advantage.
From a broader perspective, this was also an opportunity to meet rivals from other schools who would face each other throughout their school years.
That’s why I paid more attention to my appearance than usual. Because I didn’t want to be seen kneeling.
That’s how the party began.
The students of Rumern and Seilun became curious and explored each other.
It was awkward at first, but we soon started talking because we were the same age and had the same goal of becoming a hero.
Several Seilun students also approached Leo with curiosity.
“I am studying elemental arts in Seirun. you?”
“I also take up summoning.”
“Ohh. “How about Lumern’s elemental arts class?”
The first student introduced himself as an elementalist.
“I am practicing spearmanship.”
“I’m also a knight major.”
“Oh oh. I’d like to broaden my knowledge of what Rumern’s knights are like. “Can I request a sparring match tomorrow?”
“However much.”
The second student introduced himself as a knight.
Afterwards, several students came and went.
Meanwhile, Leo felt a doubt.
‘Why is there no one studying magic?’
Meanwhile, the music playing at the party changed frequently.
There was calmly conversational music, and then suddenly exciting music came out.
The elves often danced to the music.
Class 5 didn’t seem to be able to get used to that atmosphere at all.
This is because human social parties usually have separate dance times.
However, it was a scene that was not unfamiliar to Leo.
‘Elves love dancing the same way as in the past.’
From the past, elves were a race that loved dancing and singing.
It was common to woo someone with dance and song.
Luna often sang and danced while camping.
The dance that the Seirun students are dancing now was the dance that Luna danced a long time ago.
‘Dweno praised that appearance as a form of art.’
‘I’m just wondering how someone with such an eccentric personality can sing and dance so beautifully!’
‘… … ‘My main repertoire was to fight over the same bullshit.’
While I was thinking about the past, someone approached me.
“you?”
“Hello, we meet again.”
Runia smiled.
At that time, dance music started playing at just the right time.
Runia asked after hearing that.
“Would you like to dance a song?”
“Is that so?”
When Leo held out his hand, Runia took it.
And started dancing lightly.
“Do you know the elf dance?”
“I learned it a long time ago.”
When Runia asked in surprise, Leo answered as if it was nothing.
“Did you enjoy the party?”
“huh. But I’m a little curious. Isn’t there a separate department of magic in Seirun?”
“We don’t have departments like Lumern. “I focus on learning what I focus on.”
“hmm. “It felt like that.”
I thought of the previous students who introduced themselves as elementalists, summoners, spear knights, and sword knights.
“But there were no students studying magic?”
“It seems you don’t know much about Seilun. “Magic is essential in Seirun.”
“Required?”
“yes. “Because they are a magical race.”
“Even if it’s a magical race, there must be students who don’t have the aptitude for magic, right?”
“A person like that cannot enter Seirun.”
‘Basically, it’s a dual class.’
While answering like that, Runia took steps briskly.
Leo assisted Runia without difficulty.
Runia really enjoyed dancing with Leo.
‘You dance very skillfully?’
Because my skills were good, it was more fun than usual.
Eventually, when the dance time ended, Runia took a step back and asked with a slightly regretful expression.
“Now that I think about it, I haven’t asked your name yet? “What is your name?”
“me? Leo Plov.”
“… … ?”
Runia’s face stiffened as she tried to let go of Leo’s hand.
Leo gave a puzzled look in response.
“what’s the matter?”
“Was it you?”
“what?”
The friendly honor student atmosphere that had existed just a moment ago had disappeared.
Runia’s eyes widened as he exuded a harsh aura that could be considered a gangster.
“You were the thief who stole someone else’s contract?”
“ah.”
Leo nodded in understanding and smiled.
“I’m using it well.”
“Say that now!”
An excited Runia grabbed Leo’s collar.
“Fight, it’s a fight! “There was a fight!”
The atmosphere at the party was devastated.
