The next day I woke up a little late. I didn't have this problem before but during the ti I was ho I was sleeping rather soundly thus I lazed out in the morning.
Though it wasn't much trouble. I was able to take a bath, change into the academy uniform, and left for the classes before the ti was up. I'd checked the clock before leaving the room and since there were still ten minutes left I decided to grab a quick breakfast from the cafeteria.
But in the end I only took a coffee as the cafeteria was already bustling with late students. I ordered it in a paper cup and left after paying rather than sitting there and taking my ti to drink it leisurely.
With the glass of coffee in hand I walked inside the main building and hurried to the class white I finished my coffee.
Entering, I saw that I wasn't the only one late. In fact, three other students stepped inside the classroom at the sa ti as . I went and took my usual seat since I was lucky enough to find it empty—otherwise this would've been the third ti I'd had to swap seats.
I sat and waited, soon the clock marked the start of the class and after a span of a few seconds Ryfin entered the classroom. Surprisingly, it looked like he had co here running too since his forehead was covered in sweat.
He stood before the podium and looked at us, clearing his throat he said.
"The classes for today are suspended, and you all have to assemble in the academy grounds. So don't waste anymore ti and get going," he commanded.
Most of the students had already guessed about the school fest, and that this was sothing related to it. Thus no questions were asked. The students got out of there seats and walked out of the room—I was one of them.
Going through the corridor's we t with the students of other classes at the grounds, and from the looks of it they were probably arriving at the sa ti as us too.
Soon all of the classes were in the academy, and the view looked like a small city had gathered here. It was because we were not talking about only the four classes from the first year, but all the four years were assembled here. That made a total of sixteen classes; the student strength was incredible.
The grounds were decorated as well. There were a lot of new poles added and I could see magic lights attached on top of them. There was a stage in front of us that was decorated with curtains.
When all of the students seed to have gathered, soone climbed on the stage and checked the mic. From where I stood I couldn't see who that person was but my best guess was Mr Halls since he was one who made most of the announcent.
"As the most of you would have probably guessed, the academy is holding a fest for you all tonight. The academy has arranged for everything, from the production cost to the employees. You will see all kinds of stalls and we hired the best n for each of them," he said, and from his voice I was now sure that it was Mr. Halls.
"That's all I'd to say. The classes for today are suspended thus you can leave the grounds and enjoy yourself. The fest will officially began at eight pm tonight so you have a lot of ti at hands to make plans for yourself," with those parting words Mr. Halls stepped off the stage.
We were then dismissed and the rows of students that had been aligned scattered into hundreds of small pieces as if soone had stepped between a cluster of ants.
I had nothing in particular to do so along with every other student I also turned around and started to walk toward the cafeteria. I had missed on the breakfast so I was planning on doing that first.
Though things didn't quite went as planned and in the middle of my way I saw soone approaching . Seeing them made my mood dull.
"Back from the vacations, I see," Alada said as she approached . "Did you enjoyed the holidays or were you busy taking care of a secret mission sowhere out in the wild?" she asked.
"That's none of your business," I replied.
"Co on, don't be like that. I said that we should work together, didn't I? We shouldn't ignore each other like this then," she said.
"Yeah, and let rephrase that correctly. You said that we should work together, and I DECLINED."
"I know, that's why I'm here to ask again," Alada said. Until now she was walking on my side to match my pace but now she took two wide steps and stood in front of .
"Will you take in as your partner? I know you use people for your own good and I'm totally fine with that. In fact, I think I can be pretty useful to you. And in more than one way I'd say…" as those last words left her mouth she slid her skirt up, revealing a porting of her thighs.
"Seduction? That is the last thing you can win over with," I sighed. At first I was irritated by her attempts but now I was just straight up disappointed.
"Well, there was no harm in trying. You learn everything new I guess," she said idly.
"But don't think this is over yet. I've sworn that I'll work by your side so that I can get to Leon with your help, and I'm not going to give up on that anyti soon. You won't be getting rid of anyti soon," she said, and then left in her own direction.
'Actually, I can get rid of you quite easily if I want to. But I needn't go that way unless I have a solid reason.'
I left and headed for the cafeteria to get a breakfast, after that I went back to my room since I had nothing much going on.
