Chapter 75 - 38

The Princesses and Clara who came first tried to approach Kalya who was standing and looking somewhere. But before they could move any further, behind them came the sound of footsteps.

"Freya? What are you doing here?" The one who called her was King Leonida. He is currently together with the Principal and the teachers.

"Eh, Father? I was just curious about the light before. And what are you doing here?" Princess Freya was shocked when suddenly called from behind. The Princesses and Clara bowed their heads in front of King Leonida and Merlick.

"I..." He stopped his words when he saw Kalya who was surrounded by glowing butterflies. She's like a transcendent being that humans can't touch.. Even King Leonida was fascinated by her.

(What happened to her? Looks like something happened that changed her mood)

Merlick who knew Kalya since childhood muttered in his heart. Since she is an old friend's daughter, he considers kalya like his daughter.

"Father! What are you doing! I will tell this to mother!" Princess Freya was angry because not only her prince was taken, even her father was fascinated by her.

(This bitch!)

She could only grit her teeth looking at Kalya who seemed not to have noticed their presence.

"Ahaha... I was just kidding. Don't tell your mother. By the way, who is that woman, Merlick?" King Leonida asked Merlick curiously.

"She is one of the teachers at the academy I chose, her name is Kalya. She is an elf." Merlick answered honestly.

"Elf? After decades, I've only seen an elf again. But from any point of view, she is superior to the other elf." King Leonida nodded slightly. Due to the isolation of the Elven Kingdom, Elf was never again seen in human territory.

"Father!" Princess Freya was annoyed to see her father still staring at Kalya.

"Hahaha..." King Leonida just laughed embarrassed to see his daughter yelling at him.

Not long after that, the other teachers and students came. King Leonida and the Princesses walked up to kalya and wanted to ask about what happened earlier. When Kalya finally noticed their arrival. She turned and looked at them coldly.

"What are you doing here?" Kalya asked nonchalantly. She already knew someone would come there. But didn't expect someone else as strong as Merlick to come with them.

"What's going on here??" Merlick stepped forward from the group and asked her.

"Nothing. Just a change in the forest environment and the birth of new creatures." Kalya points at the glowing butterflies around her.

"You're right, I've never seen such a creature before." King Leonida suddenly entered the conversation.

"You?" Kalya doesn't know the person who is talking. What she knows is that he is as strong as Merlick.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Leonida Aurelia, I am the current King of the Aurelia Kingdom." He smiled broadly and introduced himself in a gentle voice to her. There was the sound of grinding teeth from the direction of the Princesses.

"My name is Kalya. I am an academy teacher." She replied nonchalantly.

"Ooh, nice to meet you, Miss Kalya. I'm glad the students at the academy are taught by you." King Leonida praised her while continuing to put a smile on his face. But the reply from Kalya was only a small nod.

The students who came to see the light source stood behind them. They saw the conversation going on between King Leonida and Kalya. Flavio and several other male teachers who were also interested in Kalya had gloomy faces.

"Let's all go back. It's just an ordinary natural phenomenon!" Merlick ordered the teachers who were silent behind them.

"Miss Kalya, I hope we can meet again." King Leonida saw Kalya first and left the place with the others. But there were some people still there.

"Freya, let's go back too." Princess Aisha pulled Princess Freya's hand who was looking at Kalya.

"You come back first. There's something I want to do." She walked over to Kalya. The Princesses and Clara just kept quiet and saw what Princess Freya would do.

"What are you doing? Why are you still here?" Kalya looks at the Princesses who still haven't left their place. And Princess Freya glared at her.

"Where is he going?" Princess Freya ignores Kalya's question and asks what she most wants to know.

(He? Who is Freya referring to?)

Princess Aishia who was not far from her could hear their conversation, as well as the other Princesses and Clara.

"Who do you mean?" Kalya tilts her head at Princess Freya's words.

"Stop pretending! I know he did it before!" Princess Freya is annoyed to see her pretending and starts to raise her voice.

Kalya who heard it widened her eyes in shock. She thought that Princess Freya seemed to know Ziel very well. Then she accidentally smiled.

"That is none of your business." She calmly responded to Princess Freya.

"That's my business! How many times have I told you! It's all my business!" Princess Freya shouts at Kalya. The Princesses and Clara who witnessed it were dumbfounded. They used to see Princess Freya who was gentle and graceful, especially Princess Aishia who was their childhood friend.

(Who are they talking about?)

Princess Reina was secretly curious about the person they were talking about.

"Who exactly is Princess Freya referring to?" Princess Rinne voiced her curiosity and asked Princess Aishia.

"I also do not know." She didn't know anything about it either.

Meanwhile, Kalya narrowed her eyes at Princess Freya's words.

"Is that how you talk to teachers at the academy?" Kalya asks her coldly.

"So how should I talk to you?" Princess Freya asked provocatively.

"Haaa... Go. I have to rest because tomorrow I have to teach." Kalya ignores her and walks back to her mansion.

"Wait!" Princess Freya still has many things she wants to ask, but Kalya has already disappeared from her sight.

"I'll ask her later. Let's go home, it's almost late." She walked out of the forest. The Princesses and Clara who saw it were confused by Princess Freya's behavior and curious about the person she was talking about. But they keep it in their hearts.

***

The next day, at the SkyDome. The entire class D students walked towards the golden tower and the silver tower. For a knight, they would go to the golden tower, while the mage would go to the silver tower. The one who was training them in the golden tower right now was the one who had been the referee in the previous inter-class combat practice, Edgard Galatyn. While the silver tower was trained by a Magic King named, Esther Chaspia.

The combat training they did there was not the same as during the combat training between classes. Here the mage will fight with the mage and so will the knight. They will be specially trained by people who are experts in their fields so that they can fight efficiently according to their job.

When it's time to rest during the day. Currently, Ziel is in the cafeteria with Clara and Princess Iris. He served tea to both of them then sat down on his chair.

"Ken, where have you been these days? I can't find you anywhere." Clara asked Ziel who had just sat down. Her face looks worried and looks like she has a lot of questions for him.

"After class, I usually go straight to sleep or relax by the lake behind the black tower. I'm sorry for worrying you, lady." Ziel lowered his head to her.

"Nn... I was just worried if something happened to you." Clara breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Ziel was fine.

"Yes, my lady. Have you ordered your food?" Ziel tried to divert the conversation so that the atmosphere around them was not gloomy.

"Yes, I ordered it with Iris. Ooh, did you see what happened last night?" Clara suddenly became excited when she said her last sentence. Princess Iris just smiled and shook her head looking at it. Ziel narrowed his eyes at that. Her face was pale and a lot of mana was leaking from her body. The magic tool she used seemed to have reached its limit.

"What's the matter..." Just as Ziel was about to ask, a voice from behind interrupted him.

"Can we eat here too?" Princess Freya and Princess Aishia came with their food.

"Of course, please..." Clara smiled and shifted her seat closer to Princess Iris. Princess Freya wanted to sit near Ziel but was pulled first by Princess Aishia. It wasn't long before, Princess Reina and Princess Rinne joined them. The girls who gathered at one table certainly attracted the attention of other students, especially male students.

"What are you talking about?" Princess Freya asked Clara and Princess Iris.

"Ah, we were talking about what happened last night." Princess Iris explained it to her.

"According to Miss Kalya, it's just a natural phenomenon. So there's nothing to worry about." Princess Rinne joined in on their conversation.

"Ooh, is that so?" Princess Freya chuckled and glanced at Ziel who was sipping his tea. As their chat continued, suddenly a voice interrupted them.

"Can we sit here too?" The one who spoke was Beatrix and the other teachers followed behind her.

"Of course." Princess Reina answered her. Since the table isn't that big, Clara intends to move next to Ziel.

"Miss Kalya, please sit here." Flavio, the homeroom teacher of class S showed the seat next to him. But Kalya ignored him and chose to sit next to Ziel. Flavio smiled bitterly seeing it. All the homeroom teachers from 7 classes were present at the table. The people sitting there had a high status. Only Ziel looks out of place.

"Hahaha... apparently you all gathered here." A deep and dignified voice rang out from the cafeteria entrance and caught their attention.
