Ange was walking towards the Royal Academy with a spring in her step, humming a tune, and wearing a smile that would make anyone who saw her feel good.

Her smile was so bright that it would make anyone who saw it feel better.

She walked towards the Royal Academy, swinging her shoulders.

‘Hmm~ I’ll finally get to meet Kaine-nim!’

She had wanted to meet him, but due to the two ducal families, she had been so busy that she couldn’t even meet him face-to-face, let alone go on a date.

She was so busy that dark circles had formed under her eyes.

In her entire life, she had never had dark circles under her eyes.

In fact, her body was already different from that of a normal person.

The fact that dark circles had formed under her eyes meant.

‘Hoo. I really haven’t slept for more than a week.’

That’s how busy she was.

She was so busy with work that she couldn’t even show her face when Kaine visited the temple.

To be precise, Kaine had visited when she was working elsewhere.

Anyway, she had been extremely busy.

But now, that was over.

The incident with the two ducal families had completely ended.

Now, the only thing left for her was the external instructor’s lecture.

And….

‘Meeting Kaine-nim!’

Now, only rest and rewards awaited her.

Soon, she would be able to meet Kaine face-to-face.

The thought of meeting him made her feel even better, and she quickened her steps towards the Royal Academy.

Unaware that he had chosen different lectures.

.

After reconciling with Lise, I headed towards the Royal Academy as usual.

Eventually, I arrived at my destination.

“Honey!”

After a week since the entrance ceremony, I ran into Lisanna, whom I hadn’t seen.

She ran towards me with a joyful smile.

[The Goddess of Fate is considering descending.]

No. Don’t descend, you bastard.

If the constellation also descends, things will become too complicated.

The goddess of Battle is watching from Lisanna’s perspective.

To begin with, there are already three goddesses watching over the Royal Academy.

If the Goddess of Fate also descends, it will definitely become chaotic.

As I muttered these words that the constellation couldn’t hear,

“….Don’t come. Red tomato, you’re banned from approaching.”

“What are you talking about, you little thing?”

In response to Lisanna’s words, Willy smirked.

“Second place.”

“What?”

“Second place, yet you….”

“…..”

Wow, our little sister, where did you learn to talk like that?

I was surprised by her words, but Lisanna laughed scornfully as if she had expected this.

“Hmm. As expected, you’re as illogical as a kid. Hey, didn’t you say this? If you want to fight me, you have to beat my brother first?”

“…..”

Willy remained silent in response to Lisanna’s words.

Judging by her reaction, it was clear that those words were facts.

No, little sister? Did you really say that?

Hearing those words, I understood why Lisanna had been chasing me.

As soon as you hear them talk, it’s clear that the two of them have definitely had a fight at some point.

And it’s obvious that Willy said something like, ‘Beat my brother first, Tomato. I’ve never lost to him.’

Upon hearing this, Lisanna would have looked furious.

Since the entrance ceremony, she’s been looking for me.

The reason I’ve been chased by her is none other than…

‘Because of my younger sister.’

Damn. I feel like I’ve been betrayed by my younger sister.

Well, it’s not exactly a betrayal, but I can’t help but feel betrayed.

It’s because of what she said that Lise, Eileen, and Skaya are upset.

As I was feeling absurd inside,

“So, come on. I want to do a fierce match between me and your brother. Can you step aside? You, little, girl.”

Lisanna crossed her arms and pushed out her chest, which was full of self-assertion.

“……”

Willy, unable to say anything, clenched her teeth.

She looked at me with a calm expression.

If I read her eyes,

‘Brother, please educate this Tomato.’

It seemed like she was saying that.

To betray her expectations,

“Okay. I surrender.”

I raised my hands without hesitation.

Lisanna and Willy were startled.

“Now, I hope the two of you will have a fair fight like me. I have a lecture, so I’ll be going now.”

When I finished speaking, Willy stared at me blankly.

Lisanna blushed for some reason. As if she had been humiliated.

Ignoring the two of them,

‘Damn. Let’s run away.’

I quickly moved my feet.

As the two of them were stunned for a moment, I ran away.

-Slap!

Someone slapped me hard on the back.

I knew who it was without looking back, so I said without turning around,

“You, it feels like your hands have gotten spicier since the first time.”

“This sister has done some research during the vacation.”

“You too. You must have had nothing to do.”

“Well, yes. But, Kaine.”

I looked at Skaya.

She turned her head back and said,

“That girl, isn’t she your younger sister and the one Eileen mentioned?”

“Ah… yes, that’s right.”

“Hmm~”

Skaya looked at Lisanna.

Was it because she felt her gaze?

Lisanna stopped trembling and turned her gaze to Skaya.

At the moment their eyes met,

-Fizz!

I felt like sparks were flying in the air for a moment.

Of course, it was probably just my imagination.

“Hey, you’re starring at her as if you going to eat the kid. Why are you staring at her like that?”

“No. I’m just curious about who the pretty junior that Eileen mentioned is.”

Skaya replied with a voice full of curiosity.

Hearing her words, Lisanna smiled with affection and shouted something she shouldn’t have said.

“Honey♥ Thank you for being gentle with me last time!”

Damn it, what’s wrong with that bastard!

I clearly helped her.

Lisanna was fighting with Willy, and I sacrificed my bulletproof glass-like, sturdy self-esteem (?) and surrendered to help her.

Even betraying my little sister’s expectations.

But what I got in return was betrayal.

As I was feeling dizzy from the betrayal,

“Hmm. I see.”

Skaya looked at me with squinted eyes.

I quickly clarified before she could misunderstand.

“Just to be clear, I didn’t do anything. That girl is crazy, so just ignore her.”

“Looking at her personality, it does seem like she’s crazy. But I can’t trust you much when it comes to women.”

“No….”

I couldn’t deny it.

Conscience-wise, I couldn’t deny it, as I had three women, or rather, four women, including the constellation, involved with me.

“Well, looking at your expression, it doesn’t seem like a lie. I’ll trust you. And it’s not like you would be able to lie for a while.”

“You….”

You know about me and Lise!

No wonder she’s been smiling at me for the past week.

As I was feeling dumbfounded,

“I’ll have to deal with her first.”

Skaya snapped her fingers, and in an instant, she manifested magic.

A complex spell appeared, and the next moment.

-Boom!

A small lightning bolt struck right next to Lisanna.

Seeing this, Kaine, Willy, and Lisanna gulped.

They realized that Skaya was extremely angry.

Skaya maintained a relaxed expression on the outside, but her magic showed that she was extremely angry, which could be felt even from the side.

“Junior, be reasonable.”

Skaya smiled warmly but spoke in a cold voice.

Usually, at this point, people would be intimidated or nod in agreement, but.

Lisanna was not an ordinary person; she was one of the craziest people ever.

She saw Skaya’s magic and exclaimed with excitement.

“Wow, damn it! I’ll have to ask that senior for a sparring match later! I thought magic was nothing special, but this is amazing!”

Hearing Lisanna’s words, Skaya understood what Kaine had said earlier.

That girl was indeed crazy.

“Kaine, now I understand how you felt.”

“Do you understand my feelings?”

“Yes, I’m sorry.”

For the first time, Skaya understood my true feelings.

I was so grateful that I almost felt like crying.

As we were having a moment of empathy, Lisanna spoke with an excited face.

“Senior, please spar with me later!! And you, spar with me too!! Even If you surrender like that, I won’t stop chasing you!! Don’t do that again!!”

We ignored Lisanna’s words and quickly walked away.

.

.

Upon arriving at our destination,

I had to attend Gazel’s lecture, so I had to separate from Skaya.

As I was about to part ways with her, I suddenly remembered something from the original work.

“Hey, Skaya.”

“Yes?”

“Do you have anyone you’re bullying these days? Or someone you dislike?”

“Huh? What are you talking about? Who am I bullying? I don’t dislike anyone.”

“Huh? You don’t?”

She nodded without hesitation.

I asked again, just in case.

“Really? Not even Rain?”

“No. Why would I bully her? If I bully the Saint, my family will be ruined.”

Skaya looked at me with contempt.

From her reaction, it was clear that she wasn’t bullying or disliking Rain.

[The Goddess of Fate says that she’s worthy of being bullied.]

No, you just don’t like the Saint because she’s a happiness-inducing goddess.

I ignored the constellation’s shamelessness and fell into deep thought.

Hmm. What’s going on? Why is it different from the original work?

In the original work, Skaya unknowingly bullied Rain in the early days of the second year.

Because of this, she was later expelled from the family and the Royal Academy.

Due to Kim Soo-yong and Rain.

……Now that I think about it, something seems strange.

In the original work, there were quite a few people who witnessed Rain becoming the Saint.

So, it’s certain that at least rumors about her being the Saint would have spread within the Academy.

It’s impossible to completely hide such information.

But now that I think about it, it’s absurd for Skaya to bully Rain in the original work.

No matter how much of a ducal daughter she is, bullying the Saint is crazy.

Even the setting book didn’t explain the reason.

Now that I look at it, this game has quite a few loose settings.

Every action has a cause.

However, in the game, there were many cases where the cause wasn’t explained.

The creators of this game were really sloppy.

To begin with, I thought they were sloppy because they made the ending a heart attack ending.

‘Even so, they should have at least made the settings a bit more solid.’

I really thought the creators of this game were going downhill, but today, I feel like reevaluating them once again.

Of course, in a negative way.

After thinking it through, I nodded and answered her question.

“That’s right. I understand. Then I’ll be going now.”

“Oh, okay. Let’s meet for lunch later.”

She said this and nodded with a puzzled expression.

The two of us walked towards our respective classrooms.

.

.

.

Upon arriving at the classroom, I sat in the front row, unlike usual.

That way, Gazel would remember my face.

After I sat in the front row, students started pouring in one after another.

Most of them were students attending the Mage Engineering lecture, and also….

‘Why is the professor here?’

Lucy, the Mage Engineering professor, sat next to me, dragging her loose sleeves.

She looked at me and giggled, then greeted me.

“Kaine, it’s been a while!”

“Yes, it’s been a while, Professor.”

Lucy maintained her usual high-tension attitude.

I looked at Lucy and asked her directly.

“Why are you here, Professor?”

“Huh? I’m here to attend the lecture, of course.”

“No.”

Isn’t this lecture only for students?

I looked at her with that gaze, and she seemed to have read my mind, as she proudly pushed out her small chest and said,

“Ahem. I may look old, but I’m actually quite young, so I’m sure I look like a student. So, don’t worry.”

“Oh, okay.”

So, you’re going to listen secretly.

Whether she listens or not, I don’t care.

After Lucy arrived, ten minutes passed.

Soon, the classroom was filled with students.

Those who arrived late stood behind, waiting to listen.

As everyone, except me, waited with excitement for Gazel,

-Creak!

A man who looked like a blacksmith appeared and walked up to the podium.

And that man was none other than.

“My name is Gazel.”

One of the people I needed for my grand plan.
