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
Days passed by and Raine immediately adjusted to this new pace of his school life. As for the school, the Margin Academy is bigger than he thought. Even if he has wandered around it beforehand (before he enrolled), it is impossible for him to see its entirety before. But after attending the Margin Academy for more than a week, he finally could see its entirety.Why is it bigger than he thought… Well, for one, the school gymnasium is three to four times bigger than the Riverside High School’s gymnasium. The track and field could accommodate a commercial plane. The swimming pool is also comparable to that of the Olympics’ swimming pool. There is actually a golf course here, just beside a very beautiful lake with a forest. One could see that the Margin Academy is very high-class.Meanwhile, its quality of education is very good. Aside from the teachers’ high qualifications, they are also very attentive and considerate to the students unlike some teachers in the Riverside High School who
Afternoon, after class.Raien watched the students running while holding their umbrellas high as the heavy rain poured down from the sky that suddenly turned cloudy and gray. The wind is so cold and feels damp which gives people an uncomfortable feeling. Raine stood there at the entrance of the building as the students who didn't have umbrellas ran past him.“Hurry! Hurry!” Raine heard them yell at each other as they ran together with their jackets above their heads. Either their family drivers are late, or they just think that running under the rain looks fun.Such worry-free lads and lasses… so good to be young. Raine thought, as if he himself is not young. But, with what he has experienced, it is no surprise for him to act like an adult, as his mind has already matured when he was still in the Riverside District. Not to mention that he was forced to mature after he lost his mother… he also bore the responsibility in the Riverside High School, his former high school, to reform it so
