Classes are over. It was specifically quiet today with all the seats in front empty. I made great progress in my studies.
Additionally, thanks to Misato's introduction, I got the opportunity to recruit a ?Wiseman? who is enrolled in Class 8.
Maybe, luck is on my side. Hahaha!
——Combat Department Year-1, Class-8 .
Among the freshmen, there exists a "Hidden Elite Class."
I actually only recently learned about it. I never dreamed that my leaking of high-ranking jobs would result in the creation of a hidden class with a cool-sounding name.
It's already June, and most of the students in Class 8 have already joined guilds on their own. Unfortunately, I realized it too late. Then I have no choice but to poach them to recruit them, but this was another hurdle, since Eden is still lacking in power to make them change their mind. After all, we're only E-rank.
That's why, I was about to give up on any hope to recruit them, until today the chance itself greeted me.
I'm really grateful to Misato. And on top of that, it's a ?Wiseman?... Such an outstanding job! Hurray!
With a slightly good mood, I head towards the lounge. It's there I'm going to meet the aforementioned son of the ?Count?. By the way, Misato has already gone ahead to meet him. After all, even for introductions or interviews, we need to confirm the person's own will.
"And well, that's the situation, Celestian. I'm counting on you."
"Leave it to me. I've prepared some documents here. Please take a look before the interview."
"Huh? Ah, thank you?"
I wonder what kind of documents they are. I casually start reading, but to my surprise, it contains a detailed profile of the mentioned ?Wiseman?.
What the hell!
When did he get the time to investigate him, seriously?
It's just today I have decided to meet him, you know? And he should be taking the classes until now, when the heck did he get the time to investigate!?
"Since Her Highness Lana is also in the guild Eden, we have to investigate male students, even if it's a count's son."
Ah, thought so.
I kind of feel it's Lana's father's backhand. Especially that part, 'Male students'.
No, still, when did he get the time......
Cough. There's no guessing about it. And I also think it might be better to not know about this.
Anyway, let's see his profile.
I think they have basically put forward all the personal information about him, but maybe because he's the count's son, the documents didn't go too much into details. Though if anything, this feels more like a grade sheet, with a stamp of 'Pass' on top......
Is there anyone aside from me who passes or fails the candidates? Since when has ?Eden? such a guild......
"We have arrived, Zephyr-sama."
Just as my mind was occupied with all these thoughts, we arrived at the lounge.
I entered the room Celestine had booked, informed Misato of the location in chat, and soon got a reply from her.
?Understood. We are also done with preparation from our side, so we will head there now.?
She's really quick on her work, Misato is.
A bit of time has passed since the chat when there was a knock on the door.
"Please, come in."
"Excuse me."
Celestine opened the door, and first Misato entered with her hand raised.
"Come on, Mer-kun, come in too."
"I should have told you to stop with that Mer-kun...... Inhale Excuse me."
With those words, A silver-haired young man entered, following after Misato.
My immediate impression was, he was small.
His height seems to be around Hannah at a glance, though he might also be shorter than her.
"Ah~, right, I have a request for you, Zephyr-kun. Ask anything but about his height. Mer-kun is awfully conscious about his height you see."
"Maybe you should reflect on your own words and actions first, Misato. And let's not make that request right in front of the person, shall we?"
A vein popped on the temple of the boy whose insecurities about his small stature was exposed.
It seems Misato and he are from the same place and have known each other since childhood. They seem quite close.
"It's because it's about Mer-kun! I don't want to see Mer-kun getting hurt!"
