Three days later, Evelyn got her grades for the final exam.

She scored an amazing 113 points out of 150. This was a very high score, judging from her usual standards.

Since Scroll accompanied His Majesty Roland to the Longsong Area for inspection work, Sister Wendy was the one who told her about the results. She even patted Evelyn on her shoulder and said encouragingly, “Good work. Her Highness Tilly would be very happy when she gets to know about this. Keep up the great work.”

“I’ll continue to work hard!” Evelyn nodded firmly and turned round to look for Candle. “How many points did you get?”

“91 points, which is still a pass,” Candle answered, “Looking at your happy expression, you must have done very well on the test.”

“Um!” Evelyn blurted. “113!”

“Really? This score is probably close to Lucia’s!” Candle said excitedly, “Would you like me to find out?”

“I don’t think so. They must have done better.” Evelyn waved her hand. “I only want to know Maggie’s result.”

“Perhaps my next goal could be replaced by Lily or Lucia,” she thought. She was aware her ability was indeed very bad, but she was born like that which was unchangeable. Learning, however, was something that could improve with efforts. Even ordinary people could excel in learning, and hence she did not want to lose to anyone.

She also wanted to be a learned and talented person like His Majesty Roland.

After class, Evelyn found Maggie, but Maggie’s reply was unbelievable. “Cuckoo—I scored 117!”

How could this be possible?

She stood there motionlessly for a long time, feeling incredulous even after Maggie left.

“How could this be? Scroll must have made a mistake in her results.” For a moment, Evelyn thought she heard her own voice. She blinked, only to realize that the one who had spoken was Mystery Moon. She happened to hear the conversation and had a similar puzzled look on her face.

“What’s so strange about that?” Lily stared at Mystery Moon. “Don’t doubt the ability of others, just because you fared poorly.”

“But I was sitting right in front of her.” Mystery Moon tried to justify herself. “When I collected the test, I saw that she drew honey jerky all over the blank paper.”

“Are you sure?” Lily frowned.

“I swear on my electromagnetic force!”

“Hah… that’s not in the least bit convincing at all.” Lily shrugged and prepared to leave, but was pulled back by Mystery Moon.

“Wait a minute, what I said was all true! Maybe we should investigate.”

“I’m not interested.” Lily snarled. “If you have any doubts, you can check with Scroll when she comes back.”

“That would defeat the whole purpose of exploring, ah,” said Mystery Moon with an expression of mischief. “Evelyn, let’s help you to find out the truth!”

“Don’t count me in!”

“What happened?” Candle called out.

Evelyn hesitated and then revealed her confused thoughts.

“Hmm… what would you do if you wanted to investigate?” Candle touched Evelyn’s head and said, “It takes a few days for Teacher Scroll to return, right?”

“Now that both His Majesty and Nightingale are away, don’t think that I’ll allow you to sneak into the office.” Lily glared at Mystery Moon. “Don’t think I’m unaware of what you plan to do.”

“Steal the tests? I’m not that stupid.” Mystery Moon shook her fingers. “I just want to find out where Scroll marks the tests.”
