Two days later, Monday, Margin Academy.The school bell rang loudly, indicating that a new day for school had arrived. The tall gates of the Margin Academy opened as a bunch of expensive cars entered in a beeline, carrying with them the students of the Margin Academy which were filled with hope and dreams. Even if there were some bicycles that entered with them, driven by the students who are similarly filled with hopes and dreams, these couple of bicycles were naturally outshone by the shining cars of the rich students, just like how they outshone the poor students in terms of wealth.Though, only in that area since the poor students outshone them in the academics’ area – well, it can be said that also in the personality area, too, since most of the rich students were raised spoiled rotten by their parents to the point of them being lawless. Fortunately, there were still some rich students who had good character.For one, like Arlen Wyston, who is popular in their school because he i
Vermeil stopped, then turned to look at Raine. But, he saw that the other was smiling. He lowered his gaze. He knows that the other has heard the other students call his name earlier. But, Raine still asked him for his name.Did I offend him by saying that Yris is just my classmate and not a friend, or does he care about formalities much? Vermeil thought and shook his head. Since Raine introduced himself to him, then it is impolite to not introduce himself to him, too, and just let him know of his name from other students.“Vermeil Fonde.” Vermeil answered before he resumed walking, going to take Raine to where their class was lined up.Yris is the one who is supposed to do this, but Yris has something to do as a student council member with Arlen as the new school year has just recently started, and so there was much to do. And one of them is the student council elections.In fact, Raine actually doesn’t need to be served like this since he is not a haughty person who bosses everyone
Yris looked at Zedrick in surprise. “Vermeil did?!” he exclaimed. He can’t be blamed for feeling surprised. After all, it is known to everyone that Vermeil is an aloof person. Even if it is not taken badly by the students, it also isn’t that good since it makes Vermeil distance himself from the others.But, Yris is a fairy, and so he can see through the nature of everything, especially that of the humans. So, Yris knows that Vermeil is a good person. Even if he seemed aloof and indifferent and also cold, he has a kind heart. Even if no one has seen it yet, Yris knows this fact as a fairy.Thinking this, Yris sighed in relief. Vermeil had already heard of Raine from him last Friday when they had lunch with Arlen accompanying them. Vermeil, together with Arlen, also has seen Raine that time before they left the cafeteria. Thus, Vermeil had recognized Raine earlier when the two met. And knowing that Raine is Yris’s friend, Vermeil took care of Raine.“Raine… who is he?” Zedrick asked cur
“Why… Why is he here?” someone suddenly asked as they all looked at Raine with both a wary and complicated gaze, which is also mixed with awe.It was as if everyone had woken up from their daze. “That’s right… Why is he here?!” they asked as they looked at each other. Their faces are filled with puzzlement. “Wasn’t he ruling the Riverside High School? So, why is he suddenly here?” they wondered.It is really puzzling why such a ‘legendary figure’ would come to the Margin Academy. Being a tyrant king is the same as having that territory. So, why leave your territory for another place? They thought as they stared at Raine.Suddenly, someone spoke when they recalled something. “Hey… didn’t he say just now, that he will be – “ someone muttered as he looked at Raine, then at Vermeil who was the one who brought Raine here. “He will be studying here… and so would be in – “ Then, he turned and looked at the class 1-A with his eyes wide in shock. “He will really be attending our school?!” he e
Arlen nodded at Yris as he handed Yris his share of drink before he turned to look at Raine and handed the other another drink. “Why ask for Vermeil’s favorite dish?” he asked Raine, then turned to Vermeil to give the other the last drink.“For compensation for helping me earlier.” Raine honestly answered as he muttered ‘thanks’ to Arlen, then gulped down his drink. He felt thirsty after he saw the drink.“I see.” Arlen nodded in understanding. Then, he glanced at Vermeil who was still silent. “Vermeil?” he called.Vermeil looked at the drink in his hand before he took a sip of it. “Braised pork ribs.” He finally answered.“Woah! It sounds tasty!” Yris said as his eyes sparkled. He
In a residential area of Riverside District.“Where could Lovis have gone to?” a Disciplinary Committee member asked under his breath after they passed by Lovis’s house to look for him. Because – “It has been the fourth day!” he said and sighed.The fourth day of Lovis’s disappearance is about to pass by, and they don’t have even a clue as to where Lovis could have gone. These past three days, they thought that Lovis had only gone somewhere together with his elder sister, whom they also hadn't seen in their home. Maybe the siblings have returned to their hometown, they thought. After all, Lovis and his elder sister are not locals here. And this is one of the reasons why Lovis was bullied before when he went to the Riverside High School to study.But, when they asked their teacher were Lovis’s hometown is, the teacher also doesn’t know, which surprised them. However, their teacher said that when Lovis enrolled in Riverside High School that time, everything was still a mess, and the sit
Back in the Riverside High School, Raine ignored the glances that his classmates threw at him as he had lunch with Yris, Arlen, and Vermeil who joined them. Raine can’t blame them, though, since the four of them are really a weird combination.Being classmates since middle high school, the sight of the pair Arlen and Yris is already common to the Margin Academy. Starting from when they first became friends to which the latter (Yris) was being bullied secretly, up to them becoming members of the student council, to which is an honored position in the school – well, for some who are serious and have a sense of responsibility because for other students, they only see the position of a student council member as a prestige. Fortunately, the student council adviser can’t be bribed by these arrogant students. So, the student council members are all responsible students.Anyway, the pair became a trio only last Friday when they saw Arlen and Yris invite Vermeil, who was sleeping up the tree t
“For this drink, the third dish.” Yris heard Raine tell Vermeil. Raine’s voice pulled Yris from his thoughts.Yris turned and looked at the two, only to see them whispering to each other.“No.” Vermeil answered and shook his head as he pushed the drink towards Raine.“Then, I won’t drink this.” Raine said as he pushed back the drink to Vermeil’s side.Vermeil’s brows are knitted. “Don’t play around.” He said and pushed back the drink to Raine’s side.“I am not playing around…” Raine said and pushed back the drink again to Vermeil.Yris, and also Arlen who has been watching the two since earlier, feeling speechless seeing the childishness of the two. Yris didn’t expect to see Raine act childish since Raine looked like he had matured so early when he met him again in the Riverside District. After all, with what Raine has gone through all these years, it would be surprising if Raine’s mind wouldn’t mature. That is why Yris and Raeyan feel their heart ache for Raine.Meanwhile, Arlen didn
