Irmis greeted Almark with a strange face as she returned to the school building. When she heard the report that Almark had met a strange girl and had heard a disturbing prophecy, she quietly nodded and muttered, "I see."

Irmis didn't ask any details about the girl.

"I don't know who that girl is."

Irmis did so in advance.

But you've probably saved me so many times before.

Yes.

Almark nodded.

"Whether it's a martial arts tournament, a sorcery festival, or a clan island. Before the Dark Crisis, she appeared. Sometimes her words divided the boundaries between life and death.”

I see.

Irmis nodded and said that he had already raised three fingers three times.

If that girl is so saved, you'll be a trustworthy person.

Yes.

"In that case, trust your instincts."

Ilmis smiled.

"Almark, your intuition is deeply connected to life." It's probably because you grew up in a harsh environment, and it's a trait that you have. [M] That's why I thought you could be trusted. "

That's what I saw, Almark. Unlike the strict gaze of an examiner, his eyes were a bit of a sympathy.

"You just have to trust that girl."

Yes.

Irmis added to Almark's nod.

"However, you should carry Mars' staff for a while from tomorrow." Always on the sidelines, even during the test. "

Got it.

The wand of Mars was enchanted with the protective magic of the dean. It was said that it would have the effect of keeping me away from the darkness to some extent.

That's why Almark left it in his dorm room when he didn't need it.

But the girl said, "The greatest power I've ever had."

I think I should keep Mars' staff at hand. In case Wendy was in danger, she didn't have Mars' wand, so she couldn't talk.

The land of the North. Reminds me of my father Raise, who barely took off his armor.

I should've put on some armor. It's too late for that.

Never be alarmed at any time in preparation for a crisis.

We don't know when they're coming, so this is the battlefield.

"The greatest force"

Irmis repeated the girl's words.

But there's no one in that vortex.

"What do you mean?"

Almark looked up at Ilmis.

"I don't know."

I can't say anything about that either.

Ilmis shook his head.

"But I can't be alarmed." I think I should tell your class. "

"It's from me."

Almark said.

“I'll have it communicated to you through Wallis.”

Hmm. I'm sure Wallis would.

Irmis nodded.

I'll tell the dean.

Please.

Almark lowered his head.

"That's what I'm talking about."

Irmis said.

"You know there will be exams tomorrow, don't you? Don't lose your mind until the end

That face was already the face of a tough examiner.

Yes.

Almark nodded and left the classroom in a hurry.

Ilmis, who remained alone, fell to the floor with a grim expression on her face.

"Rhinel. You can't be."

That's right. In the quiet classroom, Irmis didn't move without thinking about something.

It was Almark who hurried back to the dormitory, but as he approached the entrance, he heard a loud noise from the cafeteria, which stopped him.

Yeah. Didn't make it.

Disappointed, sighing.

Wendy and Morgan waited as they entered the dormitory, wondering if dinner was left out today.

"Ah, Almark, I'm home at last."

Wendy let out a soothing voice.

"It's been a long time." Come on, come on, come on. "

Morgan gestures.

Huh?

Almark looked at both of them.

What's going on?

It's okay, it's okay.

Morgan screams and goes up the stairs.

"Come on, Almark."

Wendy smiled and gestured. Almark doesn't know, but he follows them up the stairs.

"This way."

Deep in the hallway, Morgan's round body was bouncing.

Even after the exam, you're feeling much better.

Almark said, and Wendy smiled next to him.

"I wonder if it's because the exam passed through the mountains." Because I can see the end. "

That's right.

While nodding, he turned the corner of the hallway, and from the shadows, Morgaine's face came out gently.

"Welcome"

"What started it?"

Smiling, Almark peered in, and there was a small table set up there.

What is placed on top of that?

"It's dinner today, isn't it?"

Almark rolls his eyes.

"I've already given up. Why?"

"Almark, you were the last to test the art of change."

Wendy answers.

"That's why I was wondering if I would be able to make it to dinner in time if I had a commentary or something from Dr. Irmis." So I talked to Morgan. "

"I sneaked your share in here." It was before Maia came. "

Morgan stretches his chest.

"I haven't had enough dinner before, so I've brought it back several times." I'll take care of that. "

"Wow. Thank you."

Almark stares at the dinner he was supposed to give up.

There was still steam from the soup.

Suddenly, realizing something worrisome, Almark looks at Morgan.

"But what should I do with the dishes after I finish eating?" I can't go back to the cafeteria anymore. "

Seriously, Almark.

Morgan laughs.

"I just need to wash it and let it sneak up on my robe for dinner tomorrow." Then I'll put it back together when I clean it up. "

I see.

Almark nodded.

"Tomorrow's dinner?" Certainly, the plate is different at breakfast, so it will fall apart. "

That's it.

Morgan nodded and urged Almark.

"Come on, eat."

"I warmed up the soup a little."

Wendy interrupted.

The others are already cold, though.

"It's okay. Thank you."

Almark smiles at Wendy.

"I'm just happy to have a warm soup."

I put on dessert instead.

Morgan was right, the plate contained baked goods that would not accompany a normal meal.

Morgan's sweet. Thank you.

Almark sits in a chair.

Wendy and Morgan gazed round the table, and Almark looked up at the two of them in a daze.

"It's a little hard to eat when you're seen that much."

I see.

Morgan meets Wendy.

Well then, let's sit down.

That's right.

Morgan and Wendy sat down in the round chair that was lined up there.

“Maybe no one will come.”

That's what Wendy peered down the hall.

But if you see this place, you'll get angry. Almark, eat before you do.

That's right.

Almark nodded.

If that happens, the two of you will be in trouble.

Thank you.

Having said that, Almark began to eat.

The two of them watch Almark carry the food in their mouths. Almark was still a little illuminated, but he didn't say anything anymore.

The warmth of the soup and the sweetness of the sweets add to it.

As fast as it was, when Almark finished dinner, Morgaine asked, as if he was waiting for it.

What do you say?

"It was delicious."

Almark replied.

"The soup Wendy warmed up and the sweets you gave me." They were all delicious. "

"Well, that's good."

Morgan and Wendy nodded face to face.

"I still have my exams tomorrow."

Wendy says.

"It's definitely not good without dinner. We need to eat it properly."

Yeah.

Almark nodded.

"That's right. Thank you."

Nevertheless, it was a long time ago.

Morgen said.

"Did you get any guidance from Dr. Irmis?"

With those words, Almark remembered his earlier interaction with Ilmis.

Almark looks at both of them again.

“Yes, I have something to tell you both.”

"Oh, my God, it's changed."

"What's the matter?"

Actually...

But then, Almark doesn't know where to start.

I ran home in a hurry, so I still haven't been able to chew the girl's story well inside me.

I told Ilmis a fragmented story, but I didn't get a certain amount of understanding, and I didn't get a deeper picture.

But that was because it was Ilmis.

Talking to Wendy and Morgan about such fragmentation would only be futile and arouse anxiety.

However, if you try to talk properly from the beginning, if you are bad, it may take a night tonight.

While Wendy and Morgan are exhausted during the test period, we can't keep them company for such a long time.

But it's important.

You must share a sense of crisis with your two most important companions.

Talk about it after the exam, or just what you need to know.

... I can't talk about the girl right now.

Almark thought.

I don't know where to start. Besides, I don't know why, but I don't think Wendy should hear this story yet.

You don't have to talk about the girl's existence to get that message across.

Mars' wand is strange.

Instead, Almark lied like that.

"Something, I feel like a very large force is coming." Maybe it's Linulu herself. "

Even though it's a test period, right?

Morgan's eyes widened.

"Well, that doesn't matter over there." Besides, I guess it was the aim. They're all tired, aren't they? "

"Yeah, I feel that way." I may have made a mistake.

While saying it, Almark felt like he was saying something painful.

No, no, no.

Wendy shook her head.

Be careful.

Wendy's tone was quiet, but there was a strong will in it.

"If Almark felt that way, he would definitely come." We should be prepared and ready. "

"Thank you."

Wendy's unconditional trust.

Almark's chest was stuffed.

After the examination, we'll talk properly.

Almark felt guilty.

About that girl.

She was very worried about Wendy.

Besides, the voice of magic in Wendy was very similar to her voice.

That's all.

My story is a long one, so it may take all day. [M]

That's fine. Let's tell Wendy everything.

But...

Almark quickly suppressed himself from losing to impulse.

But not now. I still have the exam tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the final day of the important exam to get up to middle school.

“I'm going to talk to Wallis and get everyone to tell me.”

The two nodded to Almark's words.

“That's right. It could happen on Clan Island, and there's no way they could have targeted anyone.”

“Yeah, I've never had a chance to tell you.”

I agree with Morgaine.

That said, I think we're all full of exams right now.

That's right.

Almark nodded.

"That's the same with us."

That's what Wendy smiled at.

"Well then, shall we dissolve it?" After tomorrow's exams, we'll all have dinner in the city. ”

Morgan stretched out his words and slapped his chest.

I'll have fifteen candidate stores ready.

"Will you squeeze it a little more?" Too many to choose from. "

Two people laugh at Almark's words.

"Thank you, both of you."

Almark said again.

"Let's do our best for tomorrow's test."

Yeah.

Yeah.

Then the three of them broke up.
