The next day, in the Botanical Garden, Ruggie was wandering around the temperate zone of the garden until his eyes caught sight of the person he was searching for. "Ah, there you are, Leona-saaan! Ugh. I've been looking for you." he sighed as he approached the spot where Leona was sitting at.

Leona was sitting beside a tree, moving his chess pieces across a chessboard. He didn't look up at Ruggie, even though he heard him call his name. "Ughh... It's just you, Ruggie. I'm in the middle of something right now, so don't disturb me." he muttered indifferently as he moved the black knight down three black squares.

Ruggie looked at the chessboard curiously. Leona would often play chess by himself whenever he didn't feel like taking a nap. "Doing some chess problems again? Is it really fun to play by yourself?" Ruggie inquired.

"How I kill my own time is up to me. ...Or what, do you wanna play against me?" Leona asked. Ruggie smiled as he folded his hands behind his head. "No way. I'm not gonna pick a fight I can't win." he replied knowingly. He then remembered what he was here for.

"Anyway, Trein's gonna be crazy mad if you don't come to classes, y'know?" he said. Leona rolled his eyes and scowled. "Isn't it enough to take the tests? He really is a noisy old man." he said, rubbing his temple with one hand.

"Tell that to him yourself. I don't wanna be the one who has to tell him." Ruggie said as if it was the most obvious thing, "Like, the other day with Vargas..." Leona suddenly held his hand up towards Ruggie. "...Shh." he said, shushing Ruggie. Ruggie paused when he saw a scowl on Leona's face.

"Wh-What is it? You can't blow this off just 'cause you glare..." Ruggie was about to scold Leona when he cut him off. "Fine, whatever, just be quiet." Leona growled as his ears suddenly twitched. Ruggie went silent as Leona heard a voice coming from the path located at the far side of the garden.

"...Darn it all..." the voice growled. "Mm?" Ruggie hummed silently. That voice sounded familiar. As Leona and Ruggie both peeked from behind the bushes, they saw the two familiar Savanaclaw students walking along the brick garden path.
