First day of classes.

When we entered the auditorium, most of the seats were already occupied.

There were no empty seats in the front or the back of the auditorium, and only a few seats in the middle seemed to be empty.

“Erm… ah, there seem to be some empty seats over there.”

Mariel-chan pointed to the seats slightly to the left of the center from the podium side.

There didn’t seem to be any other seats where we could sit side by side, so we looked at each other and hurriedly moved to those seats.

Sei, I, and Mariel-chan sat down in that order, and each of us began to prepare our writing utensils so that we could use them immediately.

“Fuuh, I guess we’d better come a little earlier tomorrow.”

We had planned to come early, but it was the first day of classes and everyone seemed to be excited.

“Yes, I guess so.

By the way, which seat do you prefer, the front or the back

“I don’t really have preferences for that…”

When I looked at the seats in the front row, I saw that many of the students were wearing simple uniforms.

Apparently, most of the students were commoners.

And since their future was at stake, they were eager to learn seriously.

The seats in the back of the room, on the other hand, were…

A group of well-tailored, over-decorated uniforms lined up in a row, all looking like nobles.

“… Ah.”

In the very back of the room, near the center, sat Alicia Gruzier, the blonde drills girl, along with her cronies.

Alicia-sama noticed that I was looking at her, but she immediately turned her head away.

The reason why the surrounding cronies chuckled at me after noticing me, was because I was sitting in the middle of the room and not wearing the promised flashy uniform, despite being the daughter of a Duke.

I heard them talking about it in whispering tones.

No, I’m not particular about my seat, and I like my uniform, so it’s fine.

But I’m still the daughter of a Duke, you know

I understand that this is a place to learn regardless of your status, so I don’t really blame them.

But even if I don’t mind, in some case my Oniisama or Otousama may hear of this, so you should be careful about what you say and do, no…

I’m going to remind my family not to interfere just in case, but most of the time they do things that I don’t know about, and when they do, I can’t stop them.

I’m really begging you, okay I don’t want my classmates to disappear before I know it, and find out it was because of me…

While praying in my mind, I observed the other seats in the back, and saw that a group of good friends had already formed, and several of them seemed to be enjoying chatting with each other.

According to Oniisama and Mariel-chan’s information, most of the friendships of noble children are like the children’s version of their parents’ factions.

So, even if they seem to be getting along well, their parents’ power relations are affecting them.

There are some exceptions, like Mariel-chan, whose father is a newly emerging noble and doesn’t have many relationships with other nobles to begin with, or in rare cases, they get along with each other regardless of their status, but most of them are miniature versions of their family’s factions.

I’m one of those rare cases.

I’ve been holed up in my fief since before I can remember, and it was doubtful whether I would have been admitted to the academy if I hadn’t been able to control my magic, so I guess no family would have wanted their child to be my friend.

I know how they feel.

As for the potential fiancée of His Highness Crown Prince Raymond, I had withdrawn early and was out of the candidate race.

Even though I’m the daughter of a Duke, there wouldn’t be many advantages to being my crony.

Rather than that, it’s better to get know with other young ladies who can potentially become my true friends, right

It seems that all the families are wondering how they should associate with me now that I’ve become conspicuous in so many ways.

 

First day of classes.

Mhm, I want to have friends, but I don’t want to be part of a faction or anything like that…

At the moment, it seems like they’re watching me from afar.

I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to make friends, but I’m going to have to take the stance that it would be nice to make friends with girls that I like.

… Still, it’s a good thing I listened to Miria about the sleeves and collar.

The fabric and tailoring luxurious although looking casual, but compared to the other noble students, my uniform looked plainly simple…

I’m fine with that.

I will take the attachable collar and sleeves off gradually… so long I don’t get scolded by Okaasama.

Oops, I’m getting off-topic.

So, the back of the room is occupied by a nobles who are probably of a fairly high rank and their cronies.

The seats in the middle are occupied by commoners, merchants’ children, and low to mid-ranking noble children sporadically scattered here and there.

I guess, you can really tell a lot about a family by their uniform.

No wonder Okaasama didn’t like my request.

I have to thank Sally, the tailor, for helping me out.

“Erm… Cristea-sama”

I have been keeping silent without replying, so Mariel-chan looked at me worriedly.

“… Eh A, ah, let’s see.

I don’t have preferences, so I really don’t mind whether I sit at the front or at the back.”

“I see.”

The front row should be given over to those who are eager to learn, and the back should be for the… ahem, so middle is the best position.

“What about you, Sei-sama”

He’s an international student, so he might want to learn more in the front.

“I don’t really care either.

It’s easy to see from this seat, too.”

“So, do you want to stay in the middle seat tomorrow”

“Yes, let’s do that.”

“Alright.”

As we were talking about this, the lecturer stood at the podium, so I straightened up and turned my attention to the podium.

“Quiet, everyone.

We will begin our general education lectures today.”

So a lesson is finally going to start in earnest!

I opened my notebook excitedly.

 

 

“That’s it for today.

Spend this afternoon reviewing and preparing for tomorrow’s class.

That’s all.”

As soon as the lecturer left the auditorium, everyone started talking, and the place became noisy.

Some of the boys ran out of the auditorium in a hurry.

It must be hard for kids of elementary school age to just sit still and listen to a lecture.

Besides, it was just before noon, so I’m sure the hungry kids were rushing to the cafeteria.

After all, they’re in the prime of their eating years.

“What about lunch, Cristea-san Are you going back to the dormitory”

Mariel-chan asked while putting away her writing utensils.

“Yes, Mashiro and Kurogane are waiting for me, so that was my intention.”

“I see… I wanted to talk a little more with you.”

Mariel-chan showed a disappointed expression.

“You wanted to continue our morning’s conversation anyway, right Would you like to study with me in the afternoon in the salon building”

We could go to the library too, but then we wouldn’t be able to chat.

“The salon building is fine with me, but are you sure After what happened yesterday…”

Mariel-chan was probably worried about the fact that I got tangled up with Alicia-sama yesterday.

I’ve had some stares today, and I can tell you that I’d rather avoid encounters if possible, but…

“Why don’t you use the lounge room in the dorm”

As I pondered this, Sei suggested that we use the special dormitory’s lounge.

“Let’s see… but Teacher.

Neil has told me that only dorm students are allowed in there, is that okay”

“We’re already well known in the academy, and Miss Mariel has been a friend of ours since before we entered, so it won’t be a problem.

Besides, we have ‘guards’ in the dormitory, so it’s rather safe, right”

“Yeah… Mariel-san, let’s do that, shall we You can have lunch in the special dormitory, too.”

“…! Yes! I’d be happy to~!”

Mariel-chan smiled with delight and replied as if she were in some kind of pub, and I couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
