“Hmm, hmm, hmm…”

Sylvia hummed to herself as she strolled through the corridor on the top floor of Queenvale Academy for Young Ladies’ Twin Hall.

She was happier than she had found herself in a long time.

That wasn’t just because Ayato’s Team Enfield had made it through to the championship, nor simply because all his efforts thus far had paid off. No, those things were, of course, wonderful; but even more than that, she was overjoyed by the fact that they were now viewed not as toys, but dangers, to the IEFs.

In Asterisk, the integrated enterprise foundations were practically the world, and it was all but impossible to oppose them. She couldn’t be more grateful to Ayato and the others for proving that, no matter how calculating they were, no matter how much they thought they could treat their students as mere tools, that it was indeed possible to strike back.

She was thrilled beyond words.

“…And you were pretty cool, too, Ayato.”

Their semifinal match had been a fierce one, and Ayato had been on the back foot against Hagun Seikun from the very beginning—but then love, as they say, is blind to one’s imperfections.

She was, of course, worried about Kirin Toudou’s injuries, but according to the official announcement released just a short while ago, her life wasn’t in danger, though it was unlikely she would be able to compete in the championship.

It would be difficult to win against Team Lancelot fighting one member short, but given how Ayato and the others had overcome every obstacle thus far, Sylvia remained hopeful.

I’ll have to go cheer them on! she thought as she reached the office of Queenvale’s executive chairwoman, Petra Kivilehto, knocking quietly on the door as she tried to make her face appear normal.

“Petra, can I come in?”

The door opened without a sound. As she entered the room—

“I suppose congratulations are in order,” Petra called out.

“…What are you talking about?”

The older woman’s voice was as cool and composed as ever, rendering her emotions all but unreadable. She was standing in front of a wide window overlooking the brightly lit nighttime cityscape, staring at Sylvia through the visor covering her eyes. “Your friend, Ayato Amagiri, and his team made it through to the championship, after all,” she continued.

“Oh, that,” she replied, her composure slipping. She put her hands on her hips, trying to keep her elation from showing too much. “Yes, they did. But you didn’t call me here just to say that, did you?”

At this, Petra merely opened an air-window in total silence, casting it toward her.

“And this is?”

The air-window showed the faces of several Queenvale students.

“They’re members of Benetnasch… Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that they were members of Benetnasch.”

Claudia’s expression suddenly stiffened. “What do you mean?”

“I decided to do some digging of my own into that organization—the Golden Bough Alliance. I was having them look into it.”

“…Why is this the first I’ve heard about it?”

The Golden Bough Alliance: a mysterious organization that seemed to have something to do with her former teacher, Ursula Svend.
