Aidan, Leo, and Tessie, who are sitting on a deserted park bench, still haven't returned to the real world as if what happened a while ago was a dream.
Tessie was conscious first.
"So we really weren't punished. It still feels like a dream."
"I know?"
“Who would have thought the principal would take action and side with us.”
"I know?"
Leo, who usually speaks sharply with Tessie, agrees completely with her at the time.
The eyes of the two people immediately turned to Aidan.
They looked at him as if asking if he had anything to say.
“Hei, Aidan. Aidan?”
"Huh? Oh yeah." oh yeah."
"What do you think?"
Unlike the two who were happy to receive award points, Aidan showed a serious face the entire time.
"Aidan, do you have a problem?"
"Well, should I say it's attention? Well. I know it's a little weird to say this now…"
"So what's up? Don't hesitate, and say that to make your heart calmer!"
When Tessie whines at him, Aidan hesitates for a moment before admitting his concerns to his two friends.
"There's just something weird."
"Any? What's so weird?"
"Wolf of yesterday. You may not see it, but a werewolf's neck was tied with a strange silver rope."
"What?!"
"Shhh!"
As Tessie raised her voice, Leo immediately gestured for her to shut up.
"Silent. What if someone hears you?"
The three looked around and checked if there were other listeners, and then they put their heads together and spoke in a soft voice.
"Keep talking. Is that true?"
"Yes. I'm convinced. That's also why I tried to stop Professor Ludger."
“Tali, you said. Are you saying that werewolves are not ordinary werewolves?"
"I think it was really a deliberate experiment by someone."
If the story is true, it must be a serious matter.
Leo also opened his mouth with a heavy expression as if he was thinking of something.
"Me too; I heard a recent rumor ..."
"What's that?"
"That there's a suspicious man hiding in Soeren."
"Suspicious people? Whatisit? You're talking about a secret organization, right? Wasn't it just a secret club or a fake rumor created by the students themselves?"
There is nothing strange about having a secret meeting between students in Soeren.
Leo shook his head at Tessie's question.
If it was just that, he wouldn't even say that the rumors were suspicious.
"I'm not sure either, but I think it's clear that a secret organization that hasn't been revealed has taken possession of Soren. I realized it, especially after I saw this werewolf case."
“T-wait. Then you say that there are dangerous people in Soeren."
"It's still a level of doubt, but I'll say so. Aidan's. Do you think so too?"
"Yes. To be honest, it's not a good thing to suspect someone, but I'm sure something is wrong. And I think, in particular..”.
Aidan shook his head and closed his mouth as he tried to say something.
"No, it's okay."
"What's that?"
"Is it because of Professor Ludger?"
Hearing Tessie's direct words, Aidan could not lie and nodded his head.
The reason why Aidan's heart had been so overburdened since a while ago was due to the violent behavior Ludger had shown the day before.
"I don't want to be suspicious of Professor Ludger, but his appearance last night was a bit strange."
"Soddy, you say?"
"You may not be able to see it well because you are covered by Professor Ludger's back, but I face him from the front. At that moment, Professor Ludger saw something."
The reaction Ludger showed at the time was obvious, even if only for a moment.
Aidan didn't miss it.
But before he could ask, Ludger had forced him to go and set the werewolf on fire.
Leo held onto his chin after hearing Aidan's words.
"You mean Professor Ludger tried to destroy the evidence?"
"What's? Professor Ludger? Is that possible?"
No matter how likely it was, he could not believe that Ludger Chelysie, who had helped them and fought fiercely with werewolves, had anything somewhat secret outside of his actions.
"I'm not sure. However, I kept thinking that Professor Ludger might know something. The professor at the time seemed to be in a hurry to hide something."
“…”
“…”
"Maybe it's a misunderstanding."
'There is no way a professor of Soren would do such a dangerous thing.'
'But what if it's real? What if Ludger Chelysie was part of a secret organization too dangerous to talk about?'
'What if he kills a werewolf to eliminate evidence?'
"Are you an idiot? No matter how likely it is, you still go too far."
Tessie placed her hand on her waist and shook her head while reprimanding the two.
"Professor Ludger must have thought of something. And when we spoke directly to the principal earlier, don't you think there's anything strange?"
"Oh? What's?"
"I don't think so."
“Fieh. Idiots. Don't you remember what the principal said when he praised us? He points each of us to what we do well and what we do."
“Oh, correct. He does. I can't think about it because I'm so focused on other things."
"try to think. How did the principal, who wasn't even there, know about it?"
"Oh that…"
"Of course, someone told the principal everything. And who can tell the principal about what we're doing?"
Ludger Chelysie's.
It was just him.
"Professor Ludger pretended not to do it, but he actually witnessed everything we did. If he wants to scold us, he won't tell the principal our good deeds."
"Ah."
Listen to Tessie, it seems so.
Only the principal and Ludger walked into the counseling room, and when the principal said he would give them reward points, Ludger took a step back and gave up.
"Everything is Professor Ludger's plan? But why?"
“I don't know that either. Still, Professor Ludger noticed us and only told the main good things about us. Isn't it too much for you to suspect Professor Ludger?"
Aidan and Leo had nothing to justify their previous remarks.
To be honest, it's true.
If Ludger was a suspicious person, would he teach them source code breakthrough spells in his first class?
It made no sense for someone who had to hide his identity to reveal it.
"Is that so?"
Aidan scratched his head, but he could not shake his subtle doubts about Ludger.
He is convinced that Ludger is an esteemed professor, but he also cannot deny that there is indeed something strange about him.
"Yes. Tessie, I think you're right. There's no meaning thinking about it now anyway."
"Yes. As long as you know it.”
“More than that, I'm hungry. Have you eaten?”
"No. Not yet."
“How about Tessie?”
"Why me?"
"If you haven't eaten yet, why don't we go eat together?"
"Opo opo?"
Tessie wondered if she was wrong when listening to Aidan's words.
'What? Eaten?'
'With me?'
"Are you real?"
"Why?"
“That's because... eat it... uh...”
As she felt embarrassed, Tessie twisted her hair with her fingertips and muttered softly with a reddened face.
“For.... fellow friends..”.
"We're friends, right?"
“…!”
Looking at Aidan, who was looking at her with a bright smile, Tessie's ears turned red.
Leo, who was watching the scene from the side, sighed and shook his head.
Looking at the childish girl who can't be honest and her friend who doesn't have any sensitivity…
He thought that his daily life in Soeren would be full of events.
