Episode 129 “Huh? Rubian?” Sortier grabbed hold of me. The ferryman, who had been rowing, also looked at me in puzzlement. “What’s wrong? Shall I turn the boat around?” “Ah, n-no. It’s just that my stomach…” I stammered, clutching my abdomen. A burning pain flared along my back, then quickly subsided. ‘Damn it… Why now, of all times?’ I bit my lip and squeezed my eyes shut. The pain vanished as quickly as it appeared, gone almost before I even registered…

130Licht pretended not to hear and stepped closer to look down at Khalid. He seemed to have grown into an even more infuriatingly smug face over the summer. “Hello?” “Does this look like a time for pleasantries to you?” “Well, close enough. More importantly… Rubian is at the Academy, right?” “I don't see any reason I should answer—” “There is.” The elegantly curved eyes of the prince were thoroughly annoying. Khalid gave a short, derisive laugh and turned his…

Chapter 131 “…Looks like something’s in there. I’ll go check it out first.” The squirrel perched on top of Khalid’s head leapt down with a flick and scampered away. It, too, darted quickly through the labyrinthine shelves. I held my lamp up and peered at a book wedged right beside me. “…This is…” At that moment, the lower part of the previously intact spine began to peel away. Rustle. Fragile, old fragments of paper scattered. Surely it wasn’t my gaze that made…

132Havan gave the order. I hid behind my picture book and swept a glance around. “What are you waiting for? I told you to bring the pen!” “All right…” Resigned, I answered quietly and stood up. Then, moving slowly, I picked up the pen and turned around. Heading straight to Havan’s desk, I dumped out his pencil case with a crash. “What do you think you’re doing?! You crazy?

Episode 133 Ah, of course, my father is wealthy too. But isn’t it always better to have more connections among the rich? Smiling again, I began stacking my books neatly. “But… it doesn’t look like this is the first time they’ve bothered you. Why don’t you talk to the professor about it?” I spoke sincerely, but Zerdin shook his head gently. “If… if a noble retaliates because of that… I-I’ll be fine. I can put up with it a little longer.” “Oh dear.” He must…

134“Very well. Let’s go into my office! And about our special curriculum going forward…” “Pardon? No, I just wanted to look at the books in the archive.” “Sorry to break it to you just when destiny seems to be calling, but the archive is off-limits for a while. Luckily, I’ve made a few copies of some texts, so we can start with those…” “……” “Miss Rubian?” Rubian’s lips moved as if to speak. “Huh, this wasn’t what I meant to do…” “What was…

Episode 135 “Well, who knows? Honestly, this is a secret, but I might be changing jobs next year.” “Professor, they say no one who goes around saying they’re quitting ever really does quit…” “Hm hm, you sure know a lot, don’t you?” “I’m telling you not to leave, Professor!” Yuliophe just gave a brief laugh. “Well then, shall we look at the manuscript?” “Yes!” Grinning from ear to ear, I eagerly flipped through the manuscript pages. I asked about…

With a crash, the books stacked in Liam’s arms slid to the floor. “You little rascal!” He darted over and scooped Rubian right up. “Ah! The books! The books!” “What’s going on here? And how did you get in? Aren’t we supposed to be pretending not to know each other?” “That’s right! We are! This is a secret rendezvous just between you and me…!” “I love secret meetings, just us two.” Liam hugged Rubian tightly. As he looked over his little sister for the…
