Denis takes Eva to the council. Denis announces that Eva will be the vice-chairman and surprises everyone, including Eva. Eva didn't want to but she couldn't fight because Denis' decision was absolute. Finally, Eva could only leave the room feeling annoyed.

I'm very upset. I stepped out of the room feeling annoyed. Denis always acted like this to me. I don't like that mocking expression at least.
"cih" I swore while kicking a pebble in the front yard.
I think I should go back to class. But the next lesson will start in two hours. Right now the class must be empty because all the students have already traveled.
Actually the plan after I finish eating in the cafeteria, I will return to the dormitory to sleep. I also want to check on Vivian. I didn't find it this morning. So I hope to see him at break time.
Without thinking any more I went straight through the courtyard and towards the dorm building.
But my steps suddenly came to a halt when I saw something that made me curious.
Actually, this is not a flashy thing. Only some of the children were forming hidden groups in the backyard.
But I remember these kids because they were my classmates. They were noble children who looked at the princes and princesses of Kano hatefully. Moreover, they were currently gathering and talking in whispers, which made me even more suspicious and curious.
So I immediately activated my magic to hide my existence and approached them. After being about 10 meters away from them I could finally hear their voices. Even if it uses magic.
"So how?"
"Hm..we have to be careful..."
"I'm afraid we're caught...how is this? We can die or be exiled..."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"We could have just made someone else as bait. Don't worry..."
I frowned when I heard their words. Their conversation looked suspicious. Are they planning a bad goal? I can't allow this!
I try to increase my focus on listening to their conversation. But they immediately stopped their conversation and disbanded. I was left in a state of curiosity. I want to stop them but I don't know what they're talking about.
"Hopefully nothing is bad" I murmured worriedly.
I try not to think about it. But I'll keep an eye on their movements.
I also headed to my dorm. When I arrived, my dorm was still empty. There was absolutely no sign of Vivian's existence. Maybe the girl is busy. It was strange to see him not in the dorm, considering that the boy often spent time in the dormitory to learn magic.
I decided to go to bed because there was nothing I could do.
***
Two hours later, I woke up. I deliberately activated my alarm so I could wake up in time. Without waiting any longer I headed straight to class.
Classes also began. The lesson this time is still about advanced spells. This time, the stage is more developed.
Classes lasted a few hours and were honestly very boring for me. I've been studying this a long time. So when I had to repeat the learning again, I felt very saturated.
"Alright, we'll start the practice" said the class teacher.
His words made my eyes shine again. I can finally get rid of this boredom. Honestly, I prefer practice over theory.
We were all out of the yard. Then the teacher instructed us to group together. In an instant I was drawn to Lilac and Louis' group. Our group consists of five people.
But suddenly Sayn approached us. At the moment Sayn is still using her disguise. He has not shown his real face. He was wearing a loose robe that covered his body and face. Then his long bangs also covered his eyes and nose. Just leave your mouth to talk.
"Can I be a group with you guys?" asked Sayn directly in a hoarse and small voice.
I just looked at Sayn curiously while the others were throwing gazes at each other. Finally all the gazes were thrown at Lilac. Lilac frowned confusedly at first, but she immediately smiled.
"Alright" he said confidently by putting a hand on his waist.
"But remember don't interrupt okay. If you're afraid tell us. Don't bother and keep our grades low for failing" Lilac said in a sagely tone.
"Paul!" I almost laughed, but I tried to hold it.
Since when has Sayn been troublesome? He was truly considered the weakest person right now. He was considered the most useless among the princes, because it was that his social relations with the nobles were completely absent. They really did not know that the ferocious monster was wearing the mask of a weak and isolated man.
Sayn nodded slowly.
Finally, after a few minutes everyone had already formed a group. As we marched I noticed the group that was beside me.
It turned out to be Reina's entourage, the crown prince, and the princess. Two of Reina's best friends also entered the group. Then I saw the other princes as well. I forgot their names. I don't remember the names of those princes and I don't want to bother remembering them either.
There was another group that caught my attention. They were kids talking about a suspicious thing I saw last afternoon. Is it a coincidence that they are in a group?
"Well, I'm gonna make this lesson even more fun. This time we will play games" said the teacher at the front trying to explain.
"The rule is that you must use the magic I taught you. You cannot use any other magic. We're gonna do battle royal. So I'm gonna put you guys in a different place in a group. Then I will also give you 1 group card. If the card is taken by the other group then you will lose. Time limit is only 1 hour. I'll watch you from afar"
Hearing the teacher's explanation, everyone nodded.
Finally, we were given a yellow card. And all of a sudden we were transferred to a forest.
We are transferred to the virtual world today. A small forest.
"Alright, this card is me who will take care of it" Lilac said confidently as she placed the card inside the dimensional space.
No one objected, so we continued walking through the forest.
Actually, this practice is very short. Just go around, meet the opponent, beat the opponent, grab the card, and you pass. That'sallthatis. After all, there is no reward for the victory you get. You only get compliments from the teacher and no extra classes. And I'm not very interested in that reward.
All right, let's finish this practice lesson. I want to quickly sleep ah~
