Chapter 22 (1/2)

So uh, I actually had about 3 chapters sitting in drive for a feeeks I was planning to save like seven and have a release week or soonna post what I have for now…

(Please don’t kill me)

The senior section separates classes into their respective years, but there is also a class containing students from various levels This was the class Lilia is a part of, a class for upper nobles The school equips were the saregated from the rest Since there would be no end to trouble if they were to be put with everyone else

Entering the classrooht to her seat The seats were spaced in six columns and five rows Lilia’s seat was front row Probably because it was so early, there were only a few people Unapproached by anyone, she ed to sit down at her desk

—Lilia You gonna be okay?

—What is it?

—Well… the seat beside you

Having it pointed out by Sakura, Lilia re at the seat to her right The Prince’s seat

—Definitely not alright

—Yeah, let’s see…

There’s no helping that the Prince was in the same class That was just how school was, so she couldan adjacent seat was a different story Lilia shot up froaze towards the

Krystel Agnis The eldest daughter of the Marquis Agnis, she was referred to as Kris It couldn’t be said that she particularly got along with Lilia Rather, you could even say that they were enemies, but at the moment she was the lesser of two evils Lilia quietly walked towards Kris

“Oh?”

Kris soon noticed as well Floating a azed at Lilia Lilia hated this smile

“Morning, Kris A bit of your time?”

“My , Miss Lilianne What may I help you with?”

Her speech was polite, but the ridicule hanging on to every as thoroughly conveyed Absolutely unpleasant

“I’d just like to ask for a small favour”

“A favour is it? If it is so within my capabilities, by all means In the Duke’s name, do bestow upon myself your commands”

It was a thoroughly irritating way of speaking But if she rose up to her provocation, the conversation will never get anywhere Lilia ignored all the goading and continued to speak

“Our seats, would you be willing to switch with me?”

Kris’s eyes ith surprise That was to be expected, as Lilia’s seat, the seat beside the prince, was so Everyone, the prince included, knew about this

“I had heard that sohness but… Seriously?”

In her astonishment Kris’s speech returned to her normal tone Lilia nodded

“That’s right If nothing else I definitely don’t want to have the adjacent seat You had said that you’d wanted to be beside His Highness before so, it’s not a bad deal is it?”

“That, it is not but… What are you sche?”

She glared at Lilia with open hostility Lilia shrugged, signalling ‘nothing at all’, and responded

“You see, I’hness”

“That so… Then even if you want switch back later, it ain’t happening alright?”

“I won’t I will swear so on the Aldis name”

Even so, Kris looked at Lilia with suspicion, but quickly turned it into a broad ss on her desk What’s ave it a quick cleaning

“Well then, here you are Mistress Lilianne From now on this seat is yours”

“Th-thanks… I didn’t think you’d go that far I haven’t cleaned h…”
