After breaking up with Kol 'En and returning to his room, Almark found someone leaning against the wall in the hallway.

Ain, isn't it?

Almark calls the boy by his name.

"What's the matter?" What can I do for you? "

Yeah.

Ein nodded and woke up.

"I'm in the middle of an exam." I won't let you take the time. "

That said, Almark's room door is shown with his thumb.

Just a little bit, okay?

Fine.

Almark nods and opens the door.

"I can't entertain you, but go ahead."

Same room as usual.

Ein came in, looked around the room, and spoke without hesitation.

“It's been a year since I've been here, and there's barely any more.”

"I may have told you before."

Almark answers.

"I can only carry my own things."

It doesn't change that.

Ein smiles and sits down on the bed.

"I'm always going north."

"I've never lived in one place so long."

Almark replied and sat down on the chair.

That's why I don't know what to do about it.

Yeah. You're the son of a traveling blacksmith.

Ein nodded with a serious look.

"I'm sure that's true."

Still, I was just getting used to this room after all.

Almark said that and looked around the room.

If you go to middle school, the dorm will change.

Yeah.

Ein nodded.

"There is a middle school dorm near the middle school building.The room gets a little bigger.Everyone, your body will grow bigger. "

Well, I hope it's a double room next.

In response to the words, Ain laughs furiously.

"I'm lucky to be in a room with you." The room can be used extensively. "

After jokingly saying so, Ein changed his expression.

"Let's get down to business."

In response, Almark sits back in his chair and looks back at Ein.

Yeah.

"In the meantime, two groups of people would have all voted together and pushed the school director's office."

Almark blinked at Ein's words.

"Did you know that?"

“Of course, if there's a large group of people moving at once, it'll be in my ear.”

Ein said in a daze.

“I can easily guess what you looked like the other day when you came back from Krang Island, and there was something bigger.”

Having said that, I looked at Almark with sharp eyes.

"What happened?"

Uhm...

Ain loosens her eyes slightly, as Almark says.

"I'd like you to teach me, if you can."As people who have crossed the border between life and death,

Ein had a point.

After encountering a trap in the library, Almark told Ain, who shared his life and death, what he knew by then.

The fact that he was targeted for his life by a dark force connected to the "Lord of the Dark Abyss".

The reason for this is that it's in your Mars Staff.

That doesn't mean Ein doesn't know anything about Armour.

Yeah.

Almark nodded.

Still, Almark hesitated.

At that time, things had changed.

"It doesn't mean you can't be trusted."However, this is not my problem anymore. "

I'm sorry that Almark trusted Ein just because he trusted me.

Almark was the target of events on Clan Island, but Wendy's presence there was very much at stake.

"I know you hesitate."

Ein nodded calmly.

"But the fact that the two groups went to the Dean's office means that everyone in the class knew about it, right?"Sooner or later, it'll be rumored. It doesn't mean anyone leaked it, it leaked very naturally. This isn't happening. "

Almark is stuck with the words.

Ein's words seemed right.Even though I don't think that my classmates deliberately spread the word, Armark still thinks that the situation of the two students, who were known by 14 students, will gradually spread.

You mean Wendy the Wise.You must have been ready to go that far when you told everyone on Klang Island.

But Almark didn't come to his senses until Ein told him.

"That's why I want to hear it directly from you."

Ain said.

Not a nonsense rumor, but a proper truth from you personally.

Ain looks at you with serious eyes, and Armark looks back at you.

"All right."

Almark nodded slightly.

"You told me that before." He's on my side. "

”Nnh”

Ein looked surprised, but he nodded as if he remembered immediately.

"Yeah. After the library incident. I told you."

"I was delighted with that word."

Almark smiled.

"I've always thought of you as my friend ever since."

Ein raised one eyebrow to the word.

"So, I'll tell you, it's my fault."

Almark said that and looked straight at Ein.

I want you to know that, too.

"Thank you."

Ein also nodded with a serious expression all the time.

"Say again, I'm on your side."

"The gate, the key."

Ein muttered.

"The Dark Mage Rhinel to aim for it."And another sorcerer will kill all of you. "

That's what I saw, Almark.

“It's an unbelievable, epic story.”

Yeah.

Almark nodded.

"I think so too." I don't really feel much about it. "

But it's true, isn't it?

Probably.

Almark grabbed Mars' staff.

“Sometimes I think it's a mistake, but the dark forces have been after me and Wendy and this staff for a long time.”

Hmmm.

"That's why I remember each time."This is the truth, this is our destiny. "

I see.

Ein put her hand on her chin and showed her how to think.

I see.

"I don't know what's going on."

No.

Ein smiles.

I thought I finally realized that your performance at the sorcery festival was so real.

That's...

When Almark blushed, Ein waved.

“I'm not going to make fun of you.I just can't help thinking that our play didn't make it. "

Having said that, Ain got up from bed.

“Thank you for talking to me, Almark.Thank you for your trust. "

It was a very frank word for Ain.

Ain said to Almark, who continued to stand up from his chair.

“Don't worry. I won't tell anyone about this.I'll keep it in my chest. "

"I didn't think you'd tell anyone."

Almark answers.

“If I had told you, I would have told you right after the library incident.”

"Well, you're right."

Ein shrugged his shoulders.

"But don't forget." I'm on your side. "

Having said that, he smiled at Almark's face.

"The whole triennial team is on your side."

Yeah.

Almark smiles.

"That's right." Because one pair

"It's my class."

Interrupting Almark's words with a smile, Ein left the room, saying that he was sorry before the exam.
