The eventful spring has passed and summer is approaching.

The sunlight outside the window had become warm, and the students at the academy had also become much lighter in their attire.

And feeling this change of seasons, she…

Senel Polena Dragona, the student council president of Academy Adelan, was lying on the roof, enjoying some alone time in the sun.

“Haa.. I’m bored. There’s nothing fun to do lately. I don’t have a younger sibling to play with or Zeros.. In times like this, shouldn’t something just blow up?”

Senel, who rose through the ranks of Sentinel Vice President and eventually to the position of Student Council President.

As such, she knew that a lot of different things were happening within the academy than she had thought, and she enjoyed solving them.

However, now that she was the student body president, there were many parts of her life that honestly felt more boring than fun.

Running on the scene is only done when there is a truly difficult problem to solve or an important matter that requires the Chairman to step in personally.

Most of the chairman’s work consisted of paperwork, and in this respect, Senel always felt that this job was really not for him.

‘Well, I guess I can see the increased authority as a good thing, but I don’t like the fact that I have to take on so many responsibilities.’

From that perspective, the father who works as a duke or the mother who has been designated as his successor.

And the sight of people like Elios, who finished his term as president of the Academy and continued as chairman of the board…

From Senel’s perspective, it was something that was respectful but also frustrating.

‘Oh, I should never live like that. Why should I pile up worries in life? It’s best to just enjoy every moment.’

Senel takes in the sight of the blue sky before his eyes while thinking about that.

Watching the birds flying above,

That’s when she started feeling a little jealous..

“… found… all… ”

“..ah..”

The next moment,

A woman looking down at her with a creepy smile

Senel’s slightly embarrassed voice escaped his lips as he recognized her at a glance.

Vice-president of Academy Adalen, who works in the student council with Senel.

Hestia Flamer.

At the appearance of her, who was Senel’s friend and her assistant who had become the president, a slightly stiff smile began to appear on Senel’s face.

“Heh.. Hestia. Yes.. You are here… here.. how..”

“There are many ways.”

Hestia lifted Senel’s collar with those words.

There was a small clothes pin attached there, the location of which I had no idea when.

“….Ummm.. No matter what, isn’t this a bit too much?”

“At least it’s better than the chairman who suddenly disappears during a meeting, right? Come on, get down quickly. There’s already a lot of work piling up because many of the executives are out. If you keep doing this, you’ll get scolded by the chairman again.”

“Haa.. Okay.. Okay..”

Senel got up from his seat feeling like a husband who always listens to his wife’s nagging.

Then, suddenly, one thing began to pop into her head.

“Come to think of it… I think those kids should have arrived by now, right?”

“Well.. If we just consider the time, then probably yes?”

Hestia answered with a little concern, thinking of the two people who were not there and a few others she remembered.

“But honestly, I still don’t know if it’s okay. The political situation is so chaotic these days, so I originally thought I’d just let it go this year.”

“No matter what, it’s only a two-time opportunity while attending the academy. And since nothing has happened yet, it’s no use forcing it to stop.”

“That’s true, but…”

“Don’t worry, even if something happens, the group will have Freya, Frigg, and even the great princess as their guides. That place is like the princess’s living room, so even if something happens, it will be resolved very smoothly.”

“Um… ”

Hestia was still worried at Senel’s words, but she couldn’t help but nod for now.

at that time..

“Eeeeing!”

The next moment, Senel stands up from his seat and pulls her cheek tightly.

Then a familiar cry came out of Hestia’s mouth,

Senel said in a light voice, looking at his friend who had such a nice ball to play with.

“Okay, let’s stop worrying and go down now, Vice Chairman. We have to finish the work as you said.”

“Ugh… Since you’re the one who’s been kicking my butt… Ah, let’s go together! Unlike the former chairman, I can’t jump from this height!”

Senel jumps down from a height of nearly 20 meters without any trouble.

Looking at her, Hestia cried out in embarrassment, and Senel suppressed his desire to see his friend’s reaction when he removed the ladder in front of him for a moment, and turned away.

A little further southeastern from the Duchy of Dragona there existed a large city.

A city whose name is known not only to the people of the Duchy of Dragona, but also to the Empire… no, to almost everyone on the continent.

The place called Constantina was a symbolic place connecting the Western and Eastern Continents, and was designated as the capital of the empire. It was truly one of the greatest cities in the world.

A place that can be called the heart of the empire’s politics, religion, and culture, with a scale and splendor that cannot be compared even to Sofia, the capital of the Dragonak Duchy.

And now,

There, a group of students from the Academy of Adelan were looking out at the city view in amazement and admiration.

“This is the capital of the empire… ”

“Wow.. There are so many huge buildings lined up endlessly.”

Students looking down at the city in awe and amazement.

And among them, there was also Katlena, who, like the other students, was looking down on them with pure admiration.

‘Island Constantina… I’ve been here several times to visit my maternal grandparents, and every time I’ve been there, I’ve always been amazed.’

This is also the home of her maternal grandfather, Saladin, the imperial chancellor.

In that sense, this place was quite familiar to Katlena, but the city’s vast scale and panoramic view still aroused her awe every time.

“It really is the capital of an empire. This is my first time in such a large city.”

“Is this your first time here, Lania?”

“Yes, my hometown is in the southwest of the empire, so I never had a chance to come here.”

“I’ve been here a few times, but… there’s something about this place that I never get tired of seeing.”

Friends who look quite excited, just like other students.

Looking at this, Katlena began to show a slight smile on her lips.

Experiencing new things with friends is always fun and exciting for her.

But at this moment… there was something that made Katlena’s heart flutter even more.

It was Zeros who was now looking at the city with sparkling eyes from a position slightly away from her.

‘It’s great. Even though it’s a group trip, I can go somewhere with Zeros like this. If I just get the timing right, I’ll be able to have a great time with just the two of us. And I’ll do this and that too..’

It was Katlena who had been spending deep time with Zeros on a regular basis since they had started a romantic relationship some time ago.

Although she had to avoid having a baby because she was a student and couldn’t ignore the opinions of those around her, the moment she had a relationship with Zeros brought her great joy.

Yes, Katlena is filled with anticipation that she will be able to have a sweet time with Zeros on this trip as well.

But at this moment…

There was one more person in this group who had similar thoughts to her.

‘Finally… the chance I’ve been waiting for has come. It may be different at the Academy, but here in Constantina, the island, it’s my home ground. Since Elios isn’t here, this time I’ll be able to deepen my relationship with Zeros a little more…’

With that thought, Princess Maeb looked at her love in front of her and slightly tasted her lips.

Without noticing the two women’s greedy gazes, Zeros was simply absorbed in admiring the magnificent sight of the system with his friends.
