“I don’t know if I’m holding Sir Leon back.”

Filina looked around and said.

“It seems that the people from the academy haven’t arrived yet, but it’s okay to be comfortable for a while. I will be with my family.”

At her words, Leon bowed his head slightly and walked away.


Laura whispered to Filina, who was quietly looking at his back.

“He seems nice.”


Filina smiled softly at her words.

Even though his face was covered with a mask, why was he so popular?

In fact, she thought that Leon might have covered his face because women’s attention was burdensome.

Laura went straight to Amy’s call, and Filina moved to a corner with Enoch for a while.

“Did anything happen in the mansion all this time?”

Enoch shook his head in response to her question.

“No, nothing special.”

Filina smiled faintly and leaned her back against a pillar.

“…well, I know best that nothing’s going on.”

Her eyes scanned the people inside the hall and found her family. Amy was busy introducing Ariel and Bruno to the other nobles.


“Isn’t life at the military academy difficult?”

Enoch asked in a low voice. Then Filina replied with a light shrug on her shoulder.

“Yeah, nothing much. I also passed the promotion test this time. Now, after the ceremony I’ll be an official knight.”


Enoch’s eyes widened in surprise at her answer.


“……Really?”

“When did you see me joking? So there is no need to worry too much.”

Filina said, pointing to the sword on her waist. (*she’s wearing a dress for the banquet, how is it that she can wear a sword? Beat me.)

“Now that I am an official knight, I will be using your sword a lot.”

Enoch nodded quietly. He already had another sword around his waist.

Filina asked, tilting her head at an angle.

“Is it really okay for you to give me this sword? A sword is special to knights. I’ll be on leave from tomorrow anyway, so I don’t mind buying a new one.”
