6.
Ian and Laurea enter the classroom.
While making eye contact with the two men and women.
Ulan looked wistful.
‘It reminds me of the old days.’
That would be natural.
Not only did I reunite with colleagues from my past life, but I also got to take classes together.
Noah, on the other hand, had a subtle face.
Because this was a situation that did not exist in the original work.
‘The exchange meeting with Eloden Academy, and even the visit by two of the seven heroes, never happened in the original work.’
Of course, I wasn’t too embarrassed.
At the point when the abyss was opened, I already guessed that it would not proceed in the same way as the original.
‘Then why did you come here?’
Saint Laurea and Holy Knight Ian.
The two are named as big names in the castle country, both in name and reality. If they were to send these two, there must be a hidden purpose.
‘The best guess at the moment is… … .’
There are two in total.
The first is an attack by Abyss worshipers.
The second is that they received information that a chasm in the abyss had opened and came out to investigate.
Other than that, there was nothing that happened that made Seongguk move.
‘Then it won’t be a hindrance.’
In any case, the goal would be to gather information about a common enemy called the Abyss.
By the time I finished my guess.
Professor Miel continued again.
“For your information, according to principle, Cadet Laurea should have been assigned to the second-year class, but at the request of Eloden Academy, he was assigned to the first-year class.”
After further explanation.
His eyes scanned the back of the classroom.
“Then where are you two going to sit…?” … .”
Which is better?
It would be best to be with a student who can become your best friend and show you around the school. With this thought in mind, I looked at the faces of the students.
“Uh, professor.”
Suddenly, Ian spoke up.
“Is it possible for me to choose my own seat?”
“It doesn’t matter, but is there a position you want?”
“Yes, I would like to sit next to him.”
As soon as Professor Miel finished asking his question, Ian pointed toward the window as if he had been waiting.
Where the straight finger is pointing. Professor Miel, who saw the place, asked back with an expression of surprise.
“Noah Darshen? “Do you know each other by any chance?”
“No, that’s not it.”
After shaking my head lightly.
Ian smiled slightly.
“Actually, it was love at first sight.”
As soon as the words that no one expected were finished.
Several female students let out a short scream.
There were girls making a fuss with red cheeks, and some of them looked at Ian and Noah alternately with incomprehensible eyes.
Noah, the person involved, was also embarrassed.
‘still… … .’
Honestly, I felt good inside.
Ian Marcus was so handsome that he was considered one of the top five male characters in the original work.
It was rare to receive a public confession from someone of his caliber, so for some reason, I felt a little excited.
But then.
I heard a voice pouring cold water.
“You’re lying.”
“That’s a lie.”
These are Ulan and Ibella.
The moment Ian told Noah that he fell in love with him at first sight, both of them denied his words without anyone else being the first to do so.
Noah, on the other hand, had an absurd expression.
“No, why?! It could be love at first sight!”
“What can I say about Noah? “It’s a little suspicious, isn’t it?”
“Soo, Prime Minister?!”
“huh. It’s also gloomy. Oh, of course that was my first impression. not now.”
Ibella, who had been spitting out a sharp remark, seemed to realize belatedly that she had made a mistake and hesitated. But Noah already looked shocked.
Meanwhile, Ulan also added his words.
“Ibella is right.”
“Wow, even Ulan is like that?”
Noah asks while crying.
However, this was not something intentionally made up to make fun of Noah, but a denial based on hard facts.

Ulan, who had been with Ian for a long time in his past life, knew his unique tastes and personality better than anyone else.
‘In that sense… … .’
Noah does not meet Ian’s criteria for his ideal type.
It’s not just her.
It can be said with certainty that among all the students present at Arsene Academy, including those currently in this classroom, there is no one Ian’s ideal type.
That’s why I said it was a lie.
“I understand. Then, you will sit next to Noah, and then Cadet Laurea… … .”
“I also decided where to sit.”
After answering one step ahead.
Laurea walked lightly.
At the same time, the eyes of almost all the male students in the classroom were fixed on her.
The students in the area she passed sighed in dejection, and those sitting behind her looked excited.
Some time after that.
Finally her steps stopped.
Right next to Ulan.
“hello.”
After gently bowing my head and saying hello.
Laurea swept her turquoise hair back. Then he spoke with his charming eye smile.
“I saw you briefly yesterday, right? “Do you remember me?”
“I remember.”
“really? Hehehe, I’m glad.”
After bursting out laughing with his mouth covered.
She continued speaking again.
“Of course, the time we exchanged greetings was short, but I still feel comfortable being with someone I have met at least a little bit. So… … .”
After hesitating for a moment, Laurea tapped Ulan’s desk. Then she smiled again and smiled shyly.
“Can I sit next to you?”
“… … .”
However, Ulan did not respond. I just look at her as if I’m amazed by her.
It was worth it.
Because what you see now is completely different from when we first met in our last life.
When fighting against the monster of the abyss.
The warrior party, including Ulan, rescued Ian, a paladin who was stranded on the battlefield in the northeastern part of the continent, and then joined Saint Laurea.
And at that time, Laurea, who had seen Ulan for the first time, frowned and said this.
“What is this? Are you a porter?”
A very blatant rejection reaction.
That wasn’t all.
Laurea’s eyes, voice, and every expression showed a strong feeling of disgust.
After hearing the whole story from Ian, she reacted even more violently.
“what? A warrior who passed the ordeal? Ha, then I’ll quit. “Rather than being treated like those barbarians, it would be better to just beat them up.”
Ulan also did not hide his displeasure at her rude attitude. But long before that, she had a warrior who was angry with Lau Lea.
It’s none other than Geomhee Ibella.
She got angry on Ulan’s behalf, and got into a heated argument with Laurea on the spot. Ulan, who remembered her time back then, looked back at her.
‘Compared to back then… … .’
Even if it was someone else, I would believe it.
Such a friendly attitude. Of course, I know this isn’t Laurea’s true self.
Meanwhile, around that time.
Are you embarrassed by the lack of response? Laurea spoke again with an awkward expression.
“Um, there? Ulan?”
“… … ?”
“Can I sit next to you?”
“Sure.”
After finishing reminiscing, Ulan nodded.
what? If you were going to agree right away, why didn’t you say anything? With her puzzled expression on her face, she suddenly spoke as if she had remembered something.
“Oh, maybe you were just wondering why I was sitting here and thinking for a moment?”
“No, not really.”
“Phew, I can’t help it. “Then, even though it’s a little embarrassing, I’ll tell you.”
You still don’t listen to people.
When Ulan thought so.
Suddenly, Laurea came closer to my side.
So close that you can feel his breath.
He then put his lips to the ear and whispered softly so that only Ulan could hear.
“… … “Actually, it’s a similar reason to Ian.”
Finally, a short whisper.
She covered her face as if she was embarrassed. She was like a girl who was completely in love.
Ulan, on the other hand, shook his head.
“Do not lie.”
“yes?”
Was it because it was an unexpected answer?
She asked back blankly. But that was only for a moment, and Lau Lea hurriedly waved her hand away.
“No, I really…” … !”
“That can’t be possible.”
What came back was a word full of confidence.
Laurea was truly taken aback by the firm answer. Did he really see through it? Suddenly, that thought crossed my mind.
“I don’t mind sitting next to me.”
Ulan pursed his lips.
And he spoke in a low tone.
“You don’t even have to tell me why. Because I’m not curious. However, if you want to build trust, refrain from lying from now on.”
“… … .”
Laurea closed her mouth.
Without either affirming or denying.
However, the way he looked at Ulan changed slightly.
If I hadn’t felt particularly impressed before, now I felt a strong interest.
As if I had discovered a strange creature.
“Well, I understand.”
Some time after that.
Laurea shrugged. As if he would accept Ulan’s advice.
“Anyway, please take care of me.”
The story ended with a bright smile.
As their conversation was coming to an end, Professor Miel continued to explain the detailed schedule of the exchange meeting.
“The detailed schedule for this exchange meeting is largely divided into three parts. “It can be said to be a joint class, a friendly mock battle, and finally a tour of the Fountain of Magic.”
He drew a large calendar on the blackboard.
The explanation continued step by step.
“First, joint classes literally mean taking lectures together. At this time, Eloden’s students can freely audit any lecture they want.”
He also added that, at the discretion of the professor in charge, practical training or simple tests can be conducted with Eloden students.
“The second is a friendly mock battle.”
As the name suggests, this is also an event for goodwill.
The method of progress is to select twelve students from each grade from Arsene and Eloden and then engage in a mock battle in a specially prepared location.
It can be seen as similar to the mock battle that was held at Arsene Academy some time ago.
“Finally, I don’t think there’s any need to explain about the tour of the Fountain of Magic.”
Because this is something that freshmen have already experienced.
That’s when all the explanations were finished.
Ding! Sigh!
A bell was heard from the square outside the classroom.
This is the sound that announces the end of viewing time.
“Let’s end today’s assembly here.”
Just as the explanation was over, Professor Miel immediately turned around. Then he suddenly remembered something he had forgotten and looked back at the students.
“Noah, and Ulan.”
“yes?”
“You should show the two cadets around the campus. Cadets Ian and Laurea, if you don’t know something, ask them.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“I will.”
Ian and Laurea smiled brightly.
Noah also nodded and Professor Miel left the classroom, seemingly satisfied.
Some time after that.
Suddenly, Ian turned to look at Noah.
“Have you ever eaten?”
“Oh, no.”
“Good. Then, would you like to talk and eat together? “I happened to hear that there was a special room here, so I made a reservation.”
The proposal is almost over.
Noah asked back as if he was surprised.
“Um, just the two of us?!”
“Haha, of course we should all go together.”
Ian burst out laughing.
As if asking what you are talking about.
Noah scratched his cheek with a shy expression. Then Laurea, who had been silent, also added her words.
“If the place feels awkward, it’s okay to invite a few more friends.”
No sooner had she finished speaking.
Several students looked this way.
Perhaps they would like to join us for a meal. However, I couldn’t come close to it quickly.
It was because of Ulan.
‘For some reason, there is a sense of distance.’
The moment I saw this situation.
Laurea’s eyes lit up. This is because I realized that Ulan was the one floating around in the class.
‘If we attack this part… … .’
Wouldn’t it be possible to gain favor?
It was a time when I was calmly predicting the possibility of the plan.
Suddenly an unfamiliar voice knocked on my ear.
“Then will it be okay for me too?”
A clear voice with strong power.
When I reflexively turned my head, there was a girl with light blonde hair. The person who was sitting next to Ulan before Laurea intervened.
“you are… … ?”
“I am Ibella Elead.”
It was Ibella.
After a brief introduction, she looked at Laurea with eyes burning like fire.
Eyes filled with strong emotions.
Through her projection eye, Laurea immediately recognized what that feeling was.
‘Jealousy?’
Ibella harbors strong jealousy towards herself.
Laurea, on the other hand, was confused.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t remember doing anything that would make me jealous. Then, Ulan suddenly spoke up.
“Ibella is my friend.”
“A friend?”
“Yes, a valuable colleague.”
No sooner had Ulan finished answering.
Ibella’s expression softened.
The feeling of jealousy that had been burning like a flame gradually disappeared. The moment Laurea saw this, she understood their relationship.
‘Oh, was it like that?’
If so, it is completely understandable that Ulan did not fall for her confession and that Ibella harbored feelings of jealousy.
‘Then I guess I’ll have to change my plan a bit.’
After quickly finishing my thoughts.
Laurea immediately smiled brightly.
“great. “Come with me, Ibella.”
“huh. thank you for your invitation.”
Two girls holding hands with smiling faces.
However, his eyes never smiled.
Around that time, there was such a strange handshake. There was a guest who suddenly came to class 3.
“Ulan, is the inquiry over?”
A wide-brimmed hat symbolizing a witch.
It was Delia, a girl with silver hair and golden eyes. She came closer and immediately grabbed Ulan’s hand.
“When you’re done, let’s go eat together.”
“No, I…” … .”
I’m sorry, but I have a prior contract.
That’s what Ulan wanted to say. But there was someone who spoke before him.
“Dilia Arpen?!”
An unexpected person. It was Laurea.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at Delia with a look of surprise on her face.
Then he spoke as if he was happy to see me.
“Wow, I never thought I would meet you here. “How long has it been since this?”
As if he knew her well.
On the other hand, it wasn’t Delia.
She hid behind Ulan and had a wary expression on her face.
“Do you know me?”
“I’m sad. “Do you not remember me?”
“… … I don’t know.”
“This is Laurea. Laurea Lo Charpel. how is it? “If this is the case, won’t you remember?”
Laurea. Laurea.
Delia, who had been thinking about that name several times, soon opened her eyes wide. It was as if she had recalled a memory she had long since forgotten.
“Saint, candidate, Laurea?”
“Phew, it looks like I finally remembered it. that’s right. “Now I am no longer a candidate, but the next saint.”
A smile formed on Laurea’s lips.
As if he was glad that he remembered himself, even if it was belated. Meanwhile, Ian, who was watching this, asked as if he was curious.
“Do you know someone?”
“yes. When he was young, he went on a mission to the Principality of Arpen with his teacher. “He hung out a few times back then.”
This is a fact that Ulan also remembers.
In her last life, immediately after seeing Delia for the first time, Laurea mentioned that she knew her.
‘but… … .’
At the time, I wasn’t this happy about it.
They said they just knew each other by face, and Delia had a similar reaction. So, at that moment she looked somewhat puzzled.
“But, it’s a bit strange.”
“huh? What?”
“You’re not really that kind of personality.”
“… … .”
As soon as Delia finished speaking.
Laurea’s shoulders trembled.
However, the agitation was short. She immediately answered with a bright smile.
“Oh, of course it’s different from when I was young. Personality tends to change gradually as one grows up.”
“… … is it?”
“is it so. You, on the other hand, are the same as before. The halting speech is still the same, and the body… … .”
While my eyes were looking down.
Laurea suddenly closed her mouth.
“Your body too?”
“Hmm! it’s nothing.”
“What, isn’t it?”
“Don’t be too discouraged. “I read it in a book and it says that genetic factors are largely responsible.”
“Where are you looking and talking?”
Delia furrowed her brows.
In response, Laurea tried to change the subject by looking the other way, and Delia wanted to continue questioning her until the end.
Looking at this scene.
Noah briefly admired himself.
‘I never thought I would see a sight like this.’
Ulan, Ibella, and Dilia.
Plus Ian and Laurea.
Five warriors have already gathered in one place.
‘Of course, as of now, Ulan is the only one who has passed the warrior’s ordeal… … .’
Still, it was surprising enough that future warriors gathered together so quickly.
According to the original story, no matter how fast it is, they will meet only after the door to the abyss is opened.
So, as I was observing the five warriors with a curious expression, Ulan suddenly spoke to Laurea.
“By the way, when should we go to the restaurant?”
“Oh, sorry. I was excited to meet an old acquaintance after a long time, so I stopped… … .”
After bursting into awkward laughter.
Laurea immediately left her seat.
“Let’s go now. Oh, and Delia, of course.”
Right after she finished speaking.
The five warriors who would face the abyss in the future headed to the student cafeteria while holding on to their hungry stomachs.
Chapter 25. I’m here to tell you good things.
