After some time, the teacher entered and introduced himself, saying: "I am your teacher, and my name is Takemura Shingen."
When Kairos heard this name, he was surprised and thought to himself: "Doesn't this name sound Japanese?"
The students replied: "We are honored to meet you, Professor."
Then the students began to introduce themselves until it was Kairos's turn, who said: "My name is Kairos Raven Black."
Fern introduced himself, saying: "My name is Fern Moth."
The teacher spoke: "Alright, as you know, I hope this school year goes well. We are learning the art of the sword, so we study a little and train a lot. As you know, the fencing department is always last among the academy departments. I want you to work hard and be diligent; I do not care about rank."
A student asked: "Professor, why is the fencing class always weak?"
The teacher replied: "The reason is that learning fencing requires a strong body, intensive training, and great courage. Even if you have all the qualities, some students became weak because of bullying by students studying magic. For example, all of you failed the academy test, right?"
Kairos replied: "No, professor, not all of us. I did not fail; I achieved first place in the test and was the best student."
The teacher said: "Why did you come here if you were in first place? You could have chosen to learn magic."
The students whispered among themselves, saying: "What a madman! How does he come here? If I were him, I would study magic instead."
Kairos replied to the teacher: "Because I love fencing, and I do not care about bullying. Also, I do not care that we are the last department."
The teacher said: "Alright, this enthusiasm is very good. Listen, students, this year we must compete in the competition. At least two or three of you should make it into the top fifty students."
Kairos said: "No, professor, I aim to achieve first place, and Fern will be among the top thirty students in the school."
Everyone was surprised by Kairos's boldness and said: "He is crazy! How does he want to be first when there are so many strong students?"
The teacher asked: "Do you really want to be in first place?"
Kairos: "Yes."
The teacher: "Alright. I will double your training. Prepare yourself."
Kairos: "Okay, Professor."
While Kairos and Fern were in their department, Isabel entered her classroom and sat in the first seat. Then the female students who saw her sitting alone reacted.
One of them said: "Move from our place! This is our seat."
Isabel replied: "Why should I move? I sat here first."
Another girl said: "Do you still have the honor to speak with us? You do not know who we are. We passed the second academy test, and you did not even take a test. How did you get in?"
One of them mocked: "It looks like she used someone she knows."
Isabel paid them no attention. She thought to herself: "Normally I would get angry and fight with them, but now I am very calm. Is this because of Kairos's influence on us?"
Helena entered, who ranked second among the best students entering the school this year.
The girls said: "Helena, look at this girl; she used her connections to get in."
Helena asked: "Who is this girl?"
They answered: "She is the one sitting there."
Helena approached and said: "Are you the one who got in using your connections?"
The girls meant Isabel, but Helena did not know that.
One of the girls said: "She is the maid of Kairos Raven Black, the best student to enter the academy this year."
The girls were shocked and quickly withdrew.
Helena asked Isabel: "Why did you not defend yourself?"
Isabel replied: "Why should I waste my time on foolish girls? I have more important matters."
Helena asked: "Why do you look angry? Did Kairos make you angry?"
Isabel: "That is none of your business."
Helena said: "Do not be angry, I was joking. I hope we can be good friends."
Isabel: "You do not want to be my friend, you want to get close to me to get close to Kairos."
Helena said: "Alright, yes, and also for Kairos."
Then Helena sat near Isabel, and all the students entered. The teacher then entered and introduced himself, saying: "I am your teacher, my name is Mac Clastin. Introduce yourselves."
Isabel was sitting in the first seat. She introduced herself, saying: "My name is Isabel Moth."
The teacher replied: "I have not heard this name during the academy test."
Then the students whispered among themselves: "It seems she got in in a dirty way."
Isabel replied: "Yes, I did not take the test because I am just a maid."
The teacher replied: "Ah, alright, now I understand."
Then everyone introduced themselves. The teacher said: "This is good. Our department this year includes the nine best genius students who passed the test. It seems our chance this year to win against the fencing department will be easy."
Isabel smiled when she heard this. One of the students said: "It seems Isabel is laughing at what you said, Professor. It seems she does not believe that we will win against the fencing department easily."
The teacher asked Isabel: "Do you really think we cannot win against the fencing department? In your opinion, what is our chance of winning against the fencing department?"
Isabel replied quickly without thinking: "Your chance of winning against them is zero."
The teacher said: "I am not joking here, answer honestly."
Isabel: "I am not joking either, your chance of winning is zero."
A student and the teacher were angry at her words. They replied: "We will see their strength in the competition and show you the power of the magic department."
Helena asked Isabel: "Is he really that strong?"
Isabel replied: "Even if you all combined, you would not be able to do anything to him."
Helena said: "Oh, I really did not think he was this strong, but why are you telling us all this? Kairos might get into trouble for no reason."
Isabel: "I do not care what happens to him."
Helena thought to herself: "It seems she is really angry with Kairos."
