Eisel blankly listened to the words of Kashif Derek, the head of the club.

“See the section marked on this map? It was divulged by the mercenary who had been living in a cemetery for seven years. From now on, we plan to drive down the ridge of the northern hill and hunt at least three Predfish, but you guys…"

Blah! Blah!

The head of that club was especially talkative.

But, no one interrupted.

It wasn't that they were being polite.

But, the position of 'special club head' at Stella was such that he could lead students to hunt real demons with full authority.

Because he had the right to.

After explaining the plan to his heart's content, the Head turned to Eisel.

“Eisel? You only need to trust your seniors. We'll take care of everything.”

Currently, she was not affiliated with a club. That hunting outing was only joined temporary because there was a vacancy in the club created by a senior in the second year. Even that was subject to condition that he would participate in club activities in her stead after the hunt was over.

Of course, even counting her out, a fair number of freshman join this club. Clubs that allowed special outings were extremely rare, so they were very popular.

It would be really great luck to be able to temporarily join a club like this and go hunting with the seniors...

“You know? Just trust me, you have nothing to be afraid of.”

“Yes."

It was very intrusive to see this Head trying to butter up to her.

'Kassif Derek...'

He was the eldest son of Viscount Derek. She heard that he belonged to a fairly famous family that had made a fortune in business a while ago.

And, Derek tried to seduce Eisel using his family as the background. The fact that she was broke with nothing was famous.

Although Eisel was bullied at school, her appearance was so gorgeous and radiant that it was inevitable that she would be loved by men. She was used to being a target of such flirting in the public.

'You have nothing but yourself.'

It was funny to approach her with that mindset, but she didn't show off. Hunting was essential to build performance for scholarship money, and a club that would accept her was extremely rare.

It was impossible for freshmen to create clubs on their own. In particular, clubs that allowed special outings where activities such as hunting could be carried out outside was all the more impossible.

If she got kicked out of here, there might really be no opportunity next time.

'Let's wait. Just be patient for three years.'

With that thought in mind, Eisel forced herself to reveal a smile.

“Huh! When are we leaving?”

“Shut up, fool. Didn’t you learn how important each of these briefings are?"

"I know... You're just repeating the same thing over and over again.."

Hearing the chatter from the side, Eisel was delighted inwardly.

'Senior Denmark and senior Ben.......’

'At least, in this club, they do not consider me a ‘child of a traitor’, but ‘just a freshman.'
