First Of All, Lets Hide My Younger Brother

Chapter 29

"I'll write you a letter. Don't cry. I'm fine."

"I'm sorry, Kayla. I insisted, so I stayed until today. I guess I just took my time"

The last day of the semester, the day before the holidays. Filia, who stayed with me in the bedroom until the end, sobbed up.

"It's all right, don't feel guilty about anything. Philia."

"I was so naive, ha! Reality was so harsh."

Tudoon-tudoon

I patted Philly on the back and looked at her unpacked luggage. Philia must have been heartbroken, but she couldn't even unpack properly. Tears dripping from Filia's eyes soaked the carpet on the floor.

"I've worked so hard, so hard. The world is not just about sincerity."

"Of course" - I thought to myself, and I warmly embraced Philia.

"But what were you doing without my knowledge? You can't tell me now?"

When I asked, Filia slowly raised her head and smiled.

"I sent a petition with Iris."

"What request? Where?"

"I sent it to the Administration. Because the Ministry of Education is under the direct authority of the administration."

In the Administration there was Duke Dmiroff, Marianne's father, who was the Minister of Administration.

"Marianne said that she was a Sami to talk to the Duke of Demiroff. That's why she went on a family trip that she didn't plan."

I remembered the last time I saw Marianne. How she ran away in a hurry, without finishing.

And I sent a letter to the principal's house.

The director is Count Rubec Karlsen, Director-General of the Académie Kratje. It was usually very rare to see it because the work was fully delegated to the directors of each dormitory. He was in an honorary position, but he was a man with no real power

"I wanted to meet with the director personally, but I can only make appointments through him. The same goes for letters. You have to go through the hand of the supervisors from time to time. So I sent a letter straight home."

Unless it's an expensive express telegram, it would take more than 15 days for the letter to arrive in a remote area.

"But in the end, no one responded to me. As you might expect, no one cares about petitions sent by young commoners. It's so unfair. We had a very hard time getting alumni signatures."

Filia and Iris did a lot of work while I waited to be contacted by the office. Filia and Iris wrote letters to alumni proles. Among them, they solicited the help of people who had been hurt by the conduct vote. Among the aristocrats, Iris sent letters to the fallen aristocrats to convince them. How long must we remain in this state? It does not end only with the graduation of the private Academies.

The number of signatures received in this way is about 2,000. The total number of students attending Crater was less than 700. However, it was phenomenal that only graduates who opposed the behavioral voting system filled that number.

That's why they went out a lot. While I was studying in the library, I remembered Phyllia and Iris going out a lot.

"Why are you doing this for me?"

I was really innocently curious. We'd known each other six months at best. Why were these people trying so hard for me? But an unexpected answer came out of Filia's mouth.
