As the students of the Oracle Academy were busy preparing for their month-end exam, these few days passed in the blink of an eye and today it was already the day of the first part of the exam. That is the written test.
At this moment, Luis, Alicia, and Diana were on their way to the academy. Diana, who had been silent all this time, was rubbing her stomach with an uncomfortable expression.
Alicia noticed and knit her brows. "What's wrong with you?"
Diana turned to Alicia and showed a pained look. "Alicia, I think there's something wrong with my stomach today. Maybe I am sick."
Luis, who wasn't interested in their talk before, heard Diana's statement and snapped his head to look at her with a shocked expression. His wide eyes gazed at her, then at her stomach in disbelief.
'No way! Did Ben already do the deed with her?!'
'Isn't this too fast?! I remember he asked for my advice just a few days ago!' Luis' mood became somewhat depressed.
He was feeling proud as a mentor and a little complicated as a friend. At this moment, Luis' feelings were the same as someone who gives a little advice to a newbie for fun, and that newbie ends up surpassing them in just a few days.
However, all those thoughts disappeared from his mind when he heard Alicia's response to Diana.
"It's not the problem of your stomach, it's the problem with your lack of preparation for the written test. This disease is called exam sickness. Many students suffer from this disease at the time of exams." Alicia said while rolling her eyes.
"Hehe~ You caught me." Diana showed a silly grin, but the nervousness didn't disappear from her face. "Alicia, since you know about my problem. Do you have a solution for it?"
"You should have studied in the first place. Now all I can do is cheer for you."
"No! There must be some way, right?! Just save me this time guys, next time I'll work hard for sure!"
"Sorry, it's too late."
Her 'cruel' words shattered the last hope in Diana's heart. As her heavy steps moved towards the academy. "Am I going to fail?" She murmured in depression.
At this moment, Luis' words sounded in her ears like a ray of light for a person struck in the abyss.
"You agree?"
"Of course!"
"Great! Then, let's sign a contract." Luis said this and took out a scroll from his mana bracelet.
Alicia looked at the contract in Luis' hand and then at Luis' face with her deep eyes. 'This contract was prepared in advance. Did he already expect this situation?'
Diana's thinking wasn't so complicated. She just read the entire contract and found no problem with it. So, she signed it without hesitation.
Since it wasn't a Mana, or Blood Contract, she wasn't too worried about being tricked.
"Here! It's done!" She handed the contract back to him and asked. "Now tell me, how are you going to help me get a perfect score?"
{Like this.}
Diana kept staring at him for a few seconds and asked. "Are you going to do something or what?" She wondered if Luis tricked her with that contract.
{Didn't you notice, Diana?}
"What?"
Upon seeing the confusion on Diana's face, Luis pointed towards his lips.
{See this, my lips aren't moving.}
"What, nonsense-"
Halfway through her words, Diana stopped abruptly, as she stared at Luis with her eyes wide and an excited smile appeared on her face.
"OMG!!! Full Marks!"
