825.
Ding-dong-daeng-dong
The bell rang.
The clear, cheerful sound of the test ending echoed throughout the classroom.
“Okay, that’s enough.”
The professor who had been crossing his arms in front of the classroom stood up from his seat.
With him, countless spirits flew in and took away the students’ test papers.
“It’s over!”
“Eww!”
As they stood up from their seats, students stretched and threw their heads back, expressing their mixed emotions.
Written exam for liberal arts subjects.
This was the final exam for the third year students.
With this exam, Lumern’s first semester academic schedule is complete.
There are classes until next week, but it’s all self-study.
In the case of easy-going professors, they don’t care if you don’t come to class, and even strict professors don’t care if you talk and play around in the classroom.
After that, on the last day of the following week, we have a graduation ceremony and are free from the shackles of classes.
Because of that, there were many students who felt free.
Professor Yura of the Department of Summoning, who was in charge of the exam, burst into laughter as she watched the students rejoicing.
“You guys, are you that happy?”
“yes!”
“It makes me very happy to see you all happy.”
Tade, who was standing in the front row, asked with an anxious face after hearing that.
“why?”
The professor in charge of the summoning department, Tade, is Yura.
As such, Tade knew better than anyone that she was not the type of person to be purely happy about her students’ joy.
Yura smiled brightly at Tade’s question.
“I can vividly imagine your faces when our summer homework comes out next week.”
The bright classroom was suddenly enveloped in a cold silence as Yura spoke.
“Haha, everyone, look forward to it. Our professors are working hard to prepare the homework. Ohohohohohoho!”
Yura took her answer sheet and left the classroom.
“No! Why can’t the professors see us happy?”
“One or two days?”
Here and there, despairing grumbles could be heard.
Chen Xia smiled as she looked at her classmates.
“But it’s the weekend starting tomorrow, right? Since the exams are over, everyone, let’s have fun starting today.”
After hearing Chen Xia’s words, Tade said.
“It would be nice if I could go play in Lumeria City starting today.”
On days when there are classes, you cannot go to Lumeria City unless there is something special going on.
Regular ferries between Lumeron and Lumeria City also operate only on weekends.
Leo said, looking at the students with such regretful expressions.
“I’ll tell the student council.”
At those words, all the students in the classroom looked at Leo.
“So that you can go to Lumeria City starting today.”
“Ohhhhhhh!”
“As expected from the student council president!”
“Leo! Leo! Leo!”
His classmates chanted Leo’s name.
Students in the next classroom also came out to see what was going on.
Then, after hearing Leo’s words, they began to praise together.
Chen Xia smiled brightly at the sight.
“Leo will be a great king.”
“Out of the blue?”
“Isn’t this how you give selection?”
Leo burst out laughing.
***
The news that Leo had been given permission to go out starting today by his authority as student body president spread throughout the school in an instant.
The professors didn’t do anything special when they heard that Leo had permission.
The Lumeron dock was teeming with students of all departments and grades.
Everyone was busy chatting while waiting for the regular ship.
The students who finished their exams were literally full of energy.
Of course, there are vacation homework assignments and grades coming up next week, etc.
There were still some desperate events that remained, but that future was not important.
“The most important thing is the present!”
Juen, a second-year student in the Department of Magic, crossed her arms and her eyes sparkled.
“Where should we go to play?”
Sasha asked enthusiastically, folding the table.
As the department schedule has been finalized, the competition between departments has also ended today.
Of course, once the second semester starts, we’ll be competitors again, but today, friendship takes priority.

“There’s a house I’ve been looking at.”
When Aina spoke with her characteristically expressionless face, Juen gave her a thumbs up.
“Aina! Why are you so motivated!”
“Luke, you and I will go together.”
“You meant we were dating?”
“This isn’t a date?”
Aina tilted her head and Luke scratched his cheek awkwardly.
Sasha looked at the two with a puzzled expression.
“Did you know that your relationship has gotten closer since you became sophomores?”
“Because we train together every day.”
Even though we sleep in different places, we live in the same space every day.
As such, the relationship between Luke and Aina felt closer.
Sasha whispered to Juan as she watched the two clinging to each other.
“Juen, do I feel suffocated when I see those two?”
“No, I feel frustrated too.”
Both are souls so pure that they are almost excessive.
For that reason, feelings of liking each other do not easily develop into love.
“It’s frustrating to look at.”
“Okay. Let’s just date.”
“But if you push forward rashly, it seems like things will go wrong for no reason.”
“Hmm. It’s a bit subtle.”
When Juan and Sasha put their heads together and think about the relationship between their two friends.
“When are you two going to start dating? Don’t be so annoying, just start dating.”
Harveyden said with an annoyed look on his face.
“We’re not dating.”
“Hahaha. We’re not like that, Harveyden.”
Aina spoke bluntly, and Luke scratched his head, smiling as if in trouble.
Juan and Sasha kicked Harveydon’s back like that.
“Are you doing that without even noticing?”
“You ignorant knight!”
“What am I!”
The first-year students who were watching the second-year students growling at each other from afar flinched.
“The three seniors are still competing with each other even after the exams are over.”
“Isn’t it time for us to laugh and play together?”
The first graders slowly looked around.
In reality, the second-year students were the ones who taught the first-year students the most.
As such, first-year students were greatly influenced by second-year students.
That’s why, seeing the top students of the second year department growling at each other, they also started to think that maybe it was time for them to play.
at that time.
Third graders passed by before them.
Although they lived in the same dorm, first-year students rarely encountered third-year students.
The activity times were also subtly different, and the first-year students felt uncomfortable going up to the third-year students who were like heaven to them and talking to them.
We talked and became close during our joint classes, but it was still burdensome to be able to be close with each other.
Moreover, many of the third-year students were already internationally recognized.
Especially, since they had an experience where they underestimated the weakest member, Karl, during the entrance ceremony and were properly defeated, they had a difficult time dealing with the third-year students.
Golden generation.
That’s why third graders are like stars to first graders.
The one passing in front of the first-years was the top student among the third-years.
It was Eliza Hergin from the Summoning Department, who was especially famous for being scary.
Eliza was a feared figure among the first-years because she had once trained the first-year students in her party until they were foaming at the mouth.
The first graders flinched and naturally lowered their eyes.
Eliza’s younger sister, Perena, laughed out loud at Eliza’s dignified appearance.
Then Chelsea, who was following right behind Eliza, made a grumpy expression and said.
“Eliza.”
“Why are you calling?”
“There your boyfriend is passing by.”
“… … .”
Eliza looked where Chelsea was pointing.
There, Karl is walking alone, his sword clattering.
Pot-!
Chelsea quickly ran away as Eliza pulled taut the whip she was holding.
“Over there! You fu*king brat!”
The sight of Eliza chasing Chelsea, growling ferociously, was terrifying.
The first graders trembled when they saw that sight.
“I guess I won’t be able to hang out with kids from other departments.”
When the first-year students made that pledge and slowly distanced themselves from other departments.
“Miss Chelsea! Miss Eliza! What are you doing on the dock? Aren’t you embarrassed in front of your juniors?”
Lil, who had subdued the two, spoke strongly.
Lil was also a member of the student council leadership team.
The first-year students’ eyes widened at the appearance of Lil, the fourth-year representative whom they rarely see on a regular basis.
“Lil. It’s good that you subdued them, but… … what if you grab the kids by the throat?”
Niel, the leader of the leadership team, sighed and said.
“Hmm? Isn’t this an effective means of suppression?”
Lil tilted her head as she grabbed Chelsea and Eliza’s necks with her delicate hands.
“It looks really scary, can you let it go? The first-years are scared.”
In reality, Chelsea and Eliza were held down by Lil’s necks and left hanging.
As Reel set Chelsea and Eliza down, the two grabbed each other’s necks and gasped for breath.
“What on earth happened?”
“Chelsea Llewallin teased me first!”
Eliza protested.
“Even so, how dare you break the rules at the dock!”
Lil said firmly.
The first graders thought the two were in trouble because they were running wild on the dock.
“Running on the pier is against the school rules! From now on, no matter how angry you are, just walk!”
“… … .”
‘Was running the problem?’
There were students grabbing each other by the collar quite viciously not far away, but the leadership, including Reel, did not take any particular measures.
At that moment, the student council leaders, led by Niel, climbed up to a high place on the pier.
Niel said, taking out a megaphone from his bosom.
“Ah. Everyone worked hard finishing their exams. Although we are allowed to go out to Lumeria City starting today by special order from the student council president, we still must not lose our dignity as Lumerun students.”
Niel narrowed his eyes.
“Don’t do anything that will bring shame to the school. Especially, 4th and 5th graders. If you get caught doing unhealthy things like dating the opposite sex, you won’t be left alone… … .”
Before Niel could even finish speaking, boos erupted from the fifth graders.
“Wow! You’re dating a senior who graduated, but you’re telling us not to?!”
“You were growling at Senior Marcel like that, but you cracked pumpkin seeds as soon as you graduated!”
“Be honest! How far have you two gone!”
Niel, who was listening to the jeers of his close classmates, smiled and handed the megaphone to Celia.
“Please do it on behalf of the young lady.”
And then he drew his sword and rushed at me.
“Hey! It’s against school rules to draw your weapon in public!”
“Shut up! The leader can do it!”
“This is an abuse of authority! I’m reporting this to the student body president!”
“sun!”
Niel’s fierce voice and the screams of the fifth graders echoed through the room.
As the first graders gaped at that, Celia spoke into the loudspeaker.
“Please be careful, our leadership is active, that’s all.”
At last the regular ship arrived.
Meanwhile, Niel was swinging his sword at the fifth-year students, while the first-year students froze.
The first-year students remained standing until the other grades boarded the regular ship.
Around the time when other grades were almost gone.
“Huh? What are you guys doing?”
Leo arrived at the dock and looked at the first-year students with a puzzled look on his face.
“Aren’t you going to Lumeria City?”
When Chen Xia, who was standing next to Leo, tilted her head and asked, Perena, the class representative, spoke.
“I think it would be better for our departments to move together, so we’re planning to set off separately.”
“Who said that? Are the seniors saying that?”
Chen Xia furrowed her brows.
“No. I thought that would be better.”
“So you’re not going to start?”
When Chen Xia made a dumbfounded expression, another first-year student spoke cautiously.
“In addition, we were checking compliance with school rules.”
“Don’t worry about that and just have fun.”
The first-year students cried at Leo’s words.
“I don’t think Senior Niel or Senior Lil will forgive me if I break the rules… … .”
“Are you two being that picky?”
“That’s not it… … .”
“What happened to make that happen?”
In response to Leo’s question, the first-years explained what had happened a little while ago.
Leo snickered as he looked at the first-years who were scared and intimidated.
“I guess I’m not used to school yet.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
How dare you get scared over something like that.
Chen Xia smiled softly as she looked at the innocent first-year students.
“As long as you follow the rules, the leadership won’t crack down too hard. So don’t be too scared. You can play around with friends from other departments as much as you want.”
At those words, the first-year students began to feel a little relieved.
Leo gave some advice while looking at those first-year students.
“You have to get used to the sights a little bit to survive in Lumeren. You have to cleverly break the rules or find loopholes.”
“You teach good things.”
“That’s true. That’s how we all go about our school lives.”
“That’s true. You just have to keep the line.”
The first-year students felt their tension ease at the two people’s words.
Then one of the first graders raised his hand.
“So what happens if you cross the line?”
Leo smiled and answered the curious question.
“asleep.”
“yes?”
“I’m dying.”
“… … .”
The first-year students made a pledge to that answer.
Let’s never cross the line.
