Jill opened her eyes to me coming out of the cabin.

Oh, I wonder if you're in love with me.

Well, something that changed the atmosphere a lot as usual.

The black lace dress is embroidered with the same golden colour as the colour of the eyes... what an awesome bad girl is aura.

I put my hair together so I can see my first piercing, and I look grown up all at once.

I feel like the diamond on my chest has finally gotten to me.

"... that's beautiful"

Jill shrugged with her eyes open.

Maybe it wasn't a conscious word I said.

The person who said it was surprised by his words.

"I know."

I said so with the edge of my mouth raised small.

"... I knew it would be hard to hide the magic from you."

"I know, I know."

"Why do you seem so happy?"

It's hard to be a bad girl.

"A life of turbulence."

That's what I'm talking about.

"I knew Alicia was amazing."

Jill laughed as if she was frightened.

Looks like you'll follow what I do.

Boulder, my assistant... is more of a partner.

I laughed proudly so Jill wouldn't find out.

I felt the magic school I hadn't seen in a long time was even more luxurious than before.

I've been in the cabin the whole time, so I'm being honest. But it makes me look fancy, doesn't it?

I haven't seen your mansion in two years and it looked splendid.

"Alicia, I'm telling you, you should think it's a battlefield from here on out."

"Why?"

"Maybe... I think it's tough"

Jill clouds her words.

I wonder why you're making it so hard to say.

That doesn't sound like the usual Jill.

"Clearly."

I glanced lightly at Jill.

Jill sighed small as if she'd given up something.

"Alicia is the kind of person who doesn't care about bad words, she's strong, and I think she's fine... don't be fooled"

"To whom?

Jill took a deep, long sigh when I said so.

I thought you said something so strange.

Bad talk is the only bad girl, and rather, bad talk is welcome.

But what do you mean, you're fooled?

"Alicia is at a disadvantage in school. When Alicia stopped coming to school... a happy student."

Halfway through, Jill stopped saying. You must have cared about me.

I don't care if you say it to the end.

I mean, I feel so happy right now.

I haven't been a fine bad girl for two years now!

I knew it would be better for an approved bad girl to admit it than for calling herself a bad girl.

I mean, what I'm trying to say is, don't quit school.

"Don't worry."

That's what I said and laughed at Jill.

I don't think Jill's eyes trust me very much.

Well, for now, I need to know what's going on at the school.

Hundreds of stories are not at first sight.

For the first time in two years, we walked through the gates of the School of Magic.
