Before school, I don’t know when it started to rain outside the window.

The continuous raindrops hit the window sill, and the sound of splashing could be heard outside.

It gets dark earlier than usual, and the magic lights are turned on in the classroom, but sitting in the classroom under this night makes people feel even more anxious.

'It seems like it won't stop for a while...'

Wayne sat on his seat and took a long breath.

He didn't bring an umbrella today.

Although a carriage would come to pick him up, because the school regulations did not allow outsiders to enter without authorization, the coachman could only park at the school gate and wait for him.

"Time is up."

The person who came to the classroom this time was not the dean, but another strange male teacher.

"Temporary squad leader, please accept the papers."

As he said this, he opened a document: "The person who reports their name next will continue to stay and retake the previously invalidated test paper."

After hearing these words, some people began to become unable to sit still.

"Why! I've already done it, and now I'm going home." One student said.

The male teacher didn't even raise his eyes, "You can go back, but you don't have to come to school again tomorrow. Find another school that is willing to accept you."

The student who had spoken just now turned pale and felt a little embarrassed to get off the stage, but he did not dare to say anything more.

"Why is this..."

"It's too much..."

The students no longer dare to openly challenge the teacher's authority, but the teachers cannot stop their private complaints.

After walking out of the classroom, Gavin looked back at his classmates who were still sitting in their seats and unable to leave.

"For Qingxi Academy, these students whose family backgrounds are not outstanding are actually dispensable."

"This is why members of the Lily Club have the privilege of not participating in tutoring."

He whispered.

"Because even these teachers who have their backs to the academy do not dare to really conflict with the children of the great nobles, let alone use these small rights to threaten them."

"Otherwise, they will definitely suffer the consequences."

Wayne looked at the male teacher standing on the podium with no expression.

"If you say this, it will make me think that the Lily Club is an exclusive camp for villains..."

Although it didn't seem to be that bad originally.

In the corridor, Wayne stretched out his hand over the guardrail to feel the raindrops falling from the sky.

"The rain seems to be heavier than expected."

"You didn't bring an umbrella? Why don't you come with me..."

"Classmate Wayne!" Another voice suddenly sounded.

Gavin was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by an uninvited guest. The two of them turned around to look at each other.

They saw a girl with braids on both sides and a pair of round glasses approaching them, holding a straight-handled black umbrella in her hand.

"Classmate Wayne... didn't you bring an umbrella? I, I happen to have one, why don't we go out together."

Her chest rose and fell slightly, as if it took a lot of effort to finish the sentence.

"Oh?" Gavin looked at Wayne meaningfully, and then at the girl.

"Are you Kamil's classmate? I still have something to do, so I'll leave it to you to have my good friend Wayne."

After saying that, Gavin winked at Wayne and ran away without looking back.

"Hey, hello!" Wayne was a little speechless.

Camille tightened her hand on the umbrella handle.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I must have made things difficult for classmate Wayne..."

"Not...not at all."

Wayne walked down the stairs unhurriedly without comment.

Camille has been following him step by step.

Arriving at the bottom of the teaching building, Wayne stood still.

"I may be a bit direct when I say this, but I want to ask Camille a question. Can you answer me truthfully?"

He turned his gaze sideways and looked at the girl with her head lowered and a very humble expression.

"Do you have something to ask me for?"

Wayne asked seriously.

He was always being glanced at with shy, hesitant eyes, which troubled him a lot, okay?

Can you just tell me if you have something?

"ah?"

Camille was at a loss for a moment, and then her face suddenly turned red. "I, I don't have anything to ask for."

Wayne said "Oh" and glanced at her.

"Don't bother Kamil, I can go back by myself," he said.

Camille's expression changed: "But, but..."

Wayne smiled, "Isn't it just raining?"

He stretched out his palm, light flashed, and a solid earth wall appeared directly above his head.

"I am a magician."

"Let's go." Leaving these words behind, he rushed into the night in the drizzle.

Only Camille was left standing there at a loss.

The rain was still pouring down, and they hit the ground very firmly.

Occasionally, some water splashes into the rest area at the entrance of the teaching building.

"...I didn't do it well." She murmured.

The long-handled umbrella that I had just raised to my chest out of nervousness drooped down weakly.

Originally, I wanted to muster up the courage to get closer to classmate Wayne.

Maybe it was noticed.

It's obvious that her motives are not pure.

Yes, just thinking "if I can have a good relationship with him, maybe my father will be satisfied with it" is not enough.

I feel that I am inferior in this way.

Even if you want to be friends with someone at a certain moment, the first thing that comes to mind from the bottom of your heart is the fear that your father will ask you to please the other person.

Without even realizing it, I have become unable to communicate honestly with others.

Too bad.

She opened the umbrella and listened to the sound of raindrops falling on the umbrella.

It was as if the cold rain was passing through my body and soaking my heart.

"well--"

In the small world separated by the rain curtain, she sighed deeply.

Only this tranquility of solitude can truly belong to you.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the wind was blowing.

The small umbrella was stretched thin, so Camille walked forward blankly, her school uniform and shoes all wet.

Most of the students would go to school in a carriage, but Camille's father didn't have that much spare money that he was willing to spend on her.

"Doesn't the carriage cost money? Does the coachman don't cost money?"

This is what he said when I tried to make a request to him.

"You're not that delicate! Just spend more time walking."

She understands her father.

Because her family is indeed not well-off, besides herself, she also has a brother and a sister.

It's just that none of my brothers and sisters are as lucky as me, being able to enter Qingxi Academy to receive the top education in the kingdom.

Among the whole family, only my father would go to the business to rent a carriage a few times when he needed to attend important occasions.

For aristocratic interactions, it was an indispensable expense.

Although we all live under the same sky, there are such big differences between people.

But, she's used to this kind of life, so it doesn't matter.

She will take advantage of the opportunity to study in Qingxi Academy. As long as she graduates from here successfully, she will definitely have a good future.

While walking, a carriage slowly passed by.

Then he slowed down again and walked alongside her.

The curtain of the carriage suddenly opened, revealing Wayne's face.
