C83

The day the fall semester begins.

There were two four-wheeled carriages with the emblem of the two-headed serpent waiting in front of the middle gate of the Seymour mansion.

Enrique, walking briskly towards the carriage, ran towards me with his hair fluttering as soon as he spotted me.

"Hello."

In response to my slight greeting, Enrique tapped his toes and moved his lips slightly.

"Good morning, sister."

Enrique was still a bit shy. However, he didn't raise his guard or act defensively like before.

Maybe it was because he didn't raise his sword like a hedgehog, I felt his posture and expressions were a bit more relaxed.

"Enrique."

"Yes?"

"Come have chocolates after dinner. I received a gift from the princess."

Enrique nodded his head as his cheeks turned red.

As I waved my hand lightly from the carriage, Enrique brought his face to the window and waved his hand in response.

Soon, the carriages departed for the academy.

The carriages sped down the private street for high-ranking aristocrats and stopped in front of the main building.

As I stepped out of the carriage, I witnessed a miracle as people split into left and right like the Red Sea.

Just like when I first arrived at this academy, the knights and ladies quickly pretended to ignore me when they looked into my eyes.

However, when I turned my gaze elsewhere, I felt a cheeky look on my cheek.

"Somehow, it seems like I'm getting more attention than before."

No, instead of receiving the same attention as in the past, I felt like they were avoiding me as if I were dirty.

And soon, I discovered the reason...

"Congratulations to Princess Deborah for being the top of the Academy - All members of Epsilon."

It must be because of the banner hanging there.

"I think I know right away who did that."

The excessive favor of the Fifth Princess was overwhelming, so I felt nauseous, but Margaret suddenly burst out in exclamation.

"That's what my father said."

"What did he say?"

"Because you are so humble, you hadn't revealed your abilities to everyone, but he said that you will soon blossom most splendidly in high society."

"Was the assistant evaluating me so positively?"

It's surprising, but I don't feel bad.

"It is an honor to serve such a great person up close."

She bowed with a slightly excited face.

"Well, let's think positively."

Thanks to the Fifth Princess's favor, I could be seen as a competent employer for the new lady-in-waiting.

And the best student should be proud of it everywhere, so there's no reason to hide it.

The problem is that I really don't like getting attention, but it's okay because the tension is not obvious on this face.
