Chapter 29: Totes Adorbs, Part 1

STANDING at the window of the second-floor hallway, Reseda let out a heavy sigh.

On the north side of campus, out behind the school building, there was a dark and dreary backyard with a single drab picnic table that no one ever used. Possibly its entire purpose there was to justify calling that place a “backyard.” But right now, Iris and Camille were sitting there.

Despite their dimly lit surroundings, the two girls seemed to glow faintly—probably from fairies, Reseda figured, though it was hard to tell at such a distance. Camille was endowed with a lot of mana, and as such, she could see fairies. Conversely, because she could see them, they liked to gather around her. As for Iris, she had received the fairies’ blessings, and she played with them on a near-daily basis. But although they were a normal part of life to her, most of the other students couldn’t see them at all. Instead, they probably thought the girls were sparkling.

After school, the two girls were struggling to finish an assignment. For the first time ever, Camille had asked Reseda for help, since he was the only student whose talent at magic and schoolwork exceeded hers. But he refused, and for one simple reason: he didn’t want Iris to get the wrong idea about it. As for Iris, however, she found it needlessly mean of him to refuse to help Camille.

From his point of view, it felt like a false accusation. As a prince, if he were to spend private time with a young lady, it would surely create future misunderstandings. Thus, he was right to avoid it. But at the same time, he still regretted it.

“Perhaps I made the wrong choice…”

Another aggravated sigh escaped his peachy-pink lips. All around him, the girls swooned. Sensing their gazes, he looked around and discovered that a handful of other students had gathered at the few north-facing windows. Like him, they gazed out at the backyard.

If I’d known this would happen, I would have gone with them, he thought, exhaling slightly.

“Even you’re spying on them, Your Highness? Reprehensible behavior for a prince,” Nigel scowled, scanning the hallway as he stood beside Reseda. Meanwhile, in the distance, Camille and Iris had leaned in close and shared a giggle.

“I’d like you to warn Iris not to do such things in public.”

“What things?”

“Everyone’s going to realize how cute she is!” Reseda hissed, eyeing the other students pressed up against the windows.

“Not her fault she’s been cute since the day she was born.”

“As if you can even remember the day you two were born!”

“I remember it in my soul.”

Reseda let out an annoyed sigh. Nigel was a gallant knight and a good friend, but his obsession with his sister was downright obnoxious. He was criticizing Reseda for doing the exact same thing he was doing!

Today’s assignment: roll up a magic scroll and seal it shut with a braided cord. This assignment would be graded on two points: whether it was done using the right spells and whether it looked professional.
