Chapter 5: The Girl Whom Fire Hated

Albert Baycladd, headmaster of Ledelucia Academy and heir to one of the seven great noble houses, gazed out the large, ornately framed window of his office. The room was elegantly furnished, the decor tastefully arranged and exuding both elegance and serenity.

“How has Class F been faring?” he asked. His face, tinged with a hint of melancholy, had an indescribable allure to it.

“They seem to be slowly growing closer,” came a report from behind him.

The headmaster, still looking out the window, gave an appreciative nod. “The new teacher appears to be managing to bring them together effectively.”

“Yes, it seems so. He doesn’t react to any of their harassment.”

When students ignored the morning roll call, the new teacher would praise them, saying, “I respect you showing up on time at all.” When flowers were placed on his desk, he expressed delight, saying, “Giving flowers to your teacher is a nice custom. Can I bring them back with me? My sister will love them.” No matter the prank, the man remained unfazed.

“Some say he’s fundamentally different from the previous teachers somehow.”

“Is that so?” Albert glanced at the calendar on the wall. “The term will end soon.”

The academic year at Ledelucia began in the tenth month, ending in the next year’s seventh month. This meant that in about two weeks, the academic year would come to a close.

Albert turned his refined features back to the window and murmured softly, “At this rate, Class F will have been created for naught.”

***

The girl was feeling a bit flustered.

Ledelucia Academy was a prestigious institution within the powerful Kingdom of Herzeth, and only children of the upper class were allowed to attend. However, the class she was currently in—Class F—had only been created last year, and was the lowest-ranked of all classes. A quick look at the students gathered there made it obvious they had a variety of issues.

One of them was newly risen to nobility and couldn’t find a place among the blue-blooded. Another had grown rebellious after being compared to his more accomplished brother. Even the teachers at the school made no effort to conceal their disdain for these troublesome students.

While the students of Class F couldn’t be said to be friendly with each other, they still felt a sense of solidarity in their defiance against their teachers. They’d collectively harassed these teachers in various ways, and while it was hard to say what the breaking point had been, their four first homeroom teachers had vanished partway through the term.

It served them right.

However, since the arrival of their fifth homeroom teacher, something had been off. The man was easygoing and elusive, but his healing magic lessons were easy to understand, and he treated all students equally. There wasn’t a trace of the unspoken disdain from the previous teachers, and he didn’t look at them like nuisances at all.

It felt as though their whole class was falling for this surface-level act.

During a break, the girl stood up and approached the seat of her well-built classmate.
