Her own natural charm, combined with her sensory-type magic, Magic Face, made it impossible for young men to resist her allure.

Under normal circumstances, any boy facing Saegusa Mayumi would surely step forward to comfort her, apologizing without a second thought.

However, Kudo Mitsunobu was not affected by her Magic Face, and at this stage, he had no interest in wasting time trying to please her.

Watching Kudo Mitsunobu walk away on his own, Saegusa Mayumi stopped pretending to be angry.

A faint smile tugged at the corners of her lips.

Kudo Mitsunobu did not return directly to his classroom, but instead headed straight for the school's Practical Simulation Test Room.

This was the reason he hadn't been in such a rush to return to class at noon; for practical tests, one only needed to be present when it was their turn.

Of course, Saegusa Mayumi was taking the same class.

After entering Magic High School, practical tests like this were a frequent occurrence for both Course 1 Students and Course 2 Students, happening roughly twice a week.

There was a reason for these practical tests; they allowed students to clearly understand whether or not their magical proficiency had actually improved.

"200ms, Mitsunobu-kun, your speed in activating magic is truly astonishing."

The teacher in charge of the test said with a beaming face, acting as if Kudo Mitsunobu's current achievements had something to do with him.

It wouldn't be entirely wrong to say the teacher thought that way, either! Because back when the principal requested a vote on whether Kudo Mitsunobu should join the student council, he was among those who had voted in favor. The better Kudo Mitsunobu performed, the more it proved his initial decision was correct, and he naturally took pride in that.

"Not at all, thank you for the praise, teacher. It's nothing."

Kudo Mitsunobu bowed politely before stepping down from the control platform, as there were other students waiting to take their tests.

"Good work, Mitsunobu-kun."

A thick, massive frame blocked Kudo Mitsunobu's path; the person who had arrived was none other than Jumonji Katsuto.

"So it was Jumonji-senpai's class testing in the room next door today!"

Kudo Mitsunobu had already completed all three of his tests and had no further plans, so he followed Jumonji Katsuto and found a seat nearby.

"Is there something you needed, Jumonji-senpai?"

Once seated, Kudo Mitsunobu immediately asked Jumonji Katsuto, as they hadn't reached the point of being friends who would chat for no reason; they usually only sought each other out when there was a matter to discuss.

"No need to be so serious, it's nothing important."

"I just happened to hear that the class next door was yours, so I came over to have a chat."

"Understood. Then what would you like to talk about, Jumonji-senpai?"

"Nothing much, just discussing the recent activities of Blanche within the school."

As soon as Jumonji Katsuto finished speaking, a blue semi-circular dome enveloped the two of them, forming a barrier similar to a soundproof field.

I didn't expect Jumonji Katsuto to be able to use magic similar to the Juyama Family, Kudo Mitsunobu thought to himself, though on the surface, he put on an expression of admiration.

"As expected of Jumonji-senpai. However, this soundproof barrier doesn't have the same effect as a standard one, does it?"

Jumonji Katsuto looked at Kudo Mitsunobu with approval before speaking.

"Correct. A standard soundproof barrier uses vibration magic to cancel out sound, which doesn't affect the transmission of external sounds into the barrier."

"But mine simply reinforces the density of the wall; our voices cannot get out, and external sounds cannot get in."

"In that case, let me handle the barrier. It's quite troublesome if we can't receive information from the outside."

Jumonji Katsuto nodded, and Kudo Mitsunobu took over.

"That's better. Jumonji-senpai, you wanted to ask about a solution for Blanche, right?"

"Correct."

"I have no interest in them, and besides, the news of Blanche's activities on campus is mostly based on inferences drawn from the clues we have on hand."

"There is no substantial evidence, so even if we wanted to investigate, there aren't many directions to pursue."

"My suggestion is that we wait for now. If they have any ulterior motives, they certainly won't stop at these petty antics; that would be meaningless."

"Once they show their true colors, we can simply wipe them out and arrest them in one fell swoop."

This was Kudo Mitsunobu's original plan; had it not been for the conversation with Shiba Tatsuya at noon, he wouldn't have even bothered looking for people to investigate.

"Is that what you think as well?"

"At the very least, it seems like the most appropriate solution to me."

Kudo Mitsunobu shrugged and said.

"I see. Then let's do that."

Just as both of them were preparing to end the conversation and part ways, the loudspeaker on the wall emitted a harsh, grating sound.

Kudo Mitsunobu immediately dispelled the soundproof barrier, wanting to see what kind of trouble was being stirred up.

"To all students of this school, we are the League of Aspiring Individuals, dedicated to abolishing the discriminatory treatment within this school."

"We demand to negotiate with the student council, the Disciplinary Committee, and the Club Alliance on equal footing."

Listening to the voice over the loudspeaker, Kudo Hironobu gave a contemptuous smile.

"Jumonji-senpai, it seems the fox has finally revealed its tail."

The Nine Schools Competition arc is coming up soon, and I plan to wrap up the Enrollment arc within ten chapters.

After all, I only have four chapters in my backlog right now, hahahaha.

Then, in the Nine Schools Competition arc, we will confirm the first heroine of this book; I believe everyone already knows who it is, right?

As always, please vote and add to your collections.

Chapter 25: You Only Have the Choice to Accept or Not

Jumonji Katsuto couldn't help but smile bitterly; he hadn't expected that just as the two of them were discussing this, the situation would arise at such an opportune moment.
