Just A Guinevere x Lesley Oneshot Collection (MLBB)

"Surprise Delivery and Discovery!" (GuinLey AU)

"Splendid performance!"

Joiced by the pleased mentor, with both his hands clapping vigorously at the lady who outdid today's exam.

"As expected of the young lady of the Baroque household!" He continued. The commended lady gave a bow as a response. "You praise me too much, sir."

"Don't be humble, my words aren't merely compliments. They are well-deserved by your efforts, Lady Baroque."

"Well, I am truly honored," The lady said with a half-smile.

"Surely, your father is delighted to have such a gifted daughter like you. However, much as you did well, please do not let it get to your head."

"Yes, sir."

Right after the lady finished speaking with their instructor, she's immediately swarmed by other students like her.

"Lady Guinevere is amazing!"

"Your skill is so stunning!"

"So elegant!"

"I knew that you will top this one aswell!"

"Ahem," the mentor loudly cleared his throat, reminding the crowd that he is still there and they quickly dispersed. Not long after, it is already quiet. He nodded and clapped his hands one more time, "All right, this wraps up today's exam! All of you have done great. Not to mention that some even excelled."

The mentor began addressing his speech of closure for the exam that, albeit none of his students are even paying attention to. The particular lady who was then previously commended seems to have her attention driven afar from the exam aswell, in which is noticed by the student beside her.

"Is there something that matter, Lady Guinevere?" She immediately asked after being mindful of the lady's sudden uneasiness.

"...Huh?" The questioned lady asked.

"No, it's just that Lady Guinevere has been turning her head around, it makes me wonder if you are looking for someone?"

"A-Ah... No, I am simply... Err..."

The student patiently waited for the lady's response. Looking over her as she gradually become frustrated as she pondered, when all of a sudden the student let out a loud gasp, "Oh! I'm sorry, that was rude of me... Lady Guinevere doesn't have to reply if she wishes not to!"

"Eh...?"

"I'm so sorry!" The student apologized strongly after realizing something the lady herself couldn't comprehend. She waves her hand at the confused lady and started to walk away in a hurry.

"That's not it... Hah, forget it..." The lady gave up. Only understanding that what happened might be because of the same previous pretexts.

Well, she's used to it by now. The lady sighed.

"Though her question earlier wasn't that far off, actually..."

She mumbled to herself. Turns out that she is looking for something-- or someone.

Guinevere's POV

That Lesley... She wasn't there when I performed my magic skill. Where could she have gone off to?

As I walked down the corridor, trailing the path back to my dormitory room. I contemplated between looking for a certain someone or simply returning to my room.

"Geez... With or without her in front of me, she still manages to trouble me like this. What a person..."

I sighed. To be frank, I am a tad bit disappointed. I expected her to see me excel that exam yet not even a shadow of her appeared among the audiences. In fact, I haven't seen her around for almost the whole time of this day. Not just today, but also yesterday, and the day before yesterday, and the day before the day before yesterday...
