In the bustling Hromi district of the capital city, Herlo, two figures gracefully darted through the streets amidst the ubiquitous tall buildings.

Surpassing tepid and slow traffic, darting through an intersection with newly changed signals —

Why do I have to catch the train with you

West Germany stood speechless and turned his head, but he still didn't stop walking.

Although she could reach the place in seconds by flying, it still took her several minutes to arrive on Helrom's underground magitech rail.

"Isn't this all because the Headmaster suddenly took me away"

Lancy overheard her muttered complaints and politely met her gaze, asking in return.

They are now almost late.

Actually, there's still hope that we can catch up.

Being a bit late shouldn't be a big deal, but if they were too late and considering they got the best scores in the final assessment, they should both probably get leniency.

But the problem is that Ranch doesn't like to be late. He has never had a record of tardiness or absenteeism at Icterus Academy.

A truly good student and role model should always arrive on time.

And because the two of them were late together, it would inevitably cause some unnecessary suspicion among the annihilation branch.

"Do not talk back to your superiors."

West Germany muttered coldly, without looking at him any longer.

"… "

Lance remained silent.

Although he had suggested having Saint Sky bring him back to where he was taken using a super cool, rail-less roller coaster, she sadly stated that she was a principled person and wouldn't revert back to her eighth rank before there was danger to life in Ranch. She was just Syd, with the same fourth rank as Ranch, not nearly as powerful.

And the cat, Mr. Meow, who was clutched in Alan's hands, now looked utterly bewildered and terrified.

It doesn't understand why it would suddenly develop like this.

It was still enjoying its comfortable life in Helrom yesterday.

Now a legendary Cardinal of the Resurrection Church is by his side, and the two look like students who are about to be late for school, rushing desperately. This youthful feeling is somehow out of place.

On the side of the crossroad in the downtown area, you can already see the entrance to the underground arcane rail station. Get even closer and you can hear the humming of the machines and the chatter of passengers boarding.

Two people ran down the stairs towards the station entrance.

Maintaining his pace, Lance glanced at the clock on the wall.

We have to catch that one.

Lanche said with certainty that if they didn't catch the train leaving in a minute, accounting for the time it would take to run at full speed to the Annihilator Knight Order after leaving the station, they would definitely be late for the next one.

He also thought of a serious problem at the same time.

"

By the way, do you have a monthly pass, West Germany

"

If you don't have a monthly pass, it will definitely take over a minute to queue up and buy tickets then go through the gate.

Of course.

Bartholomew took out a small wallet from his upper pocket.

Then she and Lance waited in line at the gate for just a few seconds, and they breezed through.

It's just that the machines over in West Germany make a slightly different beeping sound.

""

This is not the sound a regular ticket like Lance would make. It's the kind of beep only a student ID card, like Zestilla's, would produce.

Why are you a student ticket

Lanche asked in bewilderment.

He now realized that his persona as a West German citizen seemed to be more than just a temporary, improvised fabrication. It almost appeared like he was a habitual child actor.

"…"

West Germany chose silence to answer.

Without another word, the two of them tacitly dropped the awkward subject. They dashed down the stairs and back up to the opposite platform, just managing to slip through the doors of the maglev train as they were about to close.

"Not bad, not bad, I made it in time."

West Germany opened up wide and laughed, Lan Chi also nodded slightly.

So why are you using a student ticket

Lanche continues the previous question.

"Before I met you, didn't I say I was looking for a talented young person Protoss Royal Magic Academy is a good place, so I occasionally went to have a look. Unfortunately, none of them satisfied me."

West Germany found that the kid didn't want to change the subject, so she could only sigh and explain to him.

It's not really something to be ashamed of, just pretending to be a few years younger and going to the academy to handle some official business.

Is it okay that you don't usually go back to school

Lance remembered that the written and practical exams for the Extinction branch were both held on weekdays. West, without any regard, stayed outside the school.

It's okay, just deduct some academic credits.

West Germany nonchalantly raised her right hand. Those things at school were just childish games to her, and she didn't care about things like grades and future prospects. Graduating or not graduating was all the same to her.

"Just so happens, you'll be at Protoss Royal Academy next week. I might as well keep an eye on your performance there. Don't bore me or disappoint me."

West Germany instructed Lanci as if he were giving an assignment.

Although her son appears to be very capable in business, he might struggle within the structured environment of a school and find it difficult to shine.

However, she was also very interested in seeing what level of Servant her Holy Son would be rated as at the Protoss Royal Magic Academy.

"Well, with you cheering me on, I have to take things seriously now."

Lan Qi was silent for a moment, then said.

He felt that if he hadn't known about West Germany's identity now, even if he had met her at school, he might not have realized she was the Overlord.

And it seems like, no matter whether he participates in the Extinction Branch's assessment or not, he will be targeted by Sieglinde and taken away, even at the Protoss Royal Academy.

He's destined to go around this big shot.

"Aren't you always running away"

West Germany stared at Ranchi, after precisely suppressing her own strength back to the fourth rank, she found that this kid, who was clearly a magic auxiliary, ran surprisingly fast in town, breezing through several streets without much panting.

My teacher once told me that I should practice running more, otherwise it would be easy to die.

Lanche thought for a moment, then replied.

Forget what she said. Now I am your teacher. In the future, don't waste time doing this sort of thing. Put your mind into the career you want.

West Germany's expression was unreadable, but his tone seemed somewhat displeased that Lanci had brought up someone else's teachings.

"What if I encounter unreasonable thugs who chase me"

Lanche discovered that the town's movement speed was actually quite important, after all, it had been used in the Ectere Academy. He still remembered vividly the incident where the Gladiator team built illegally and demolished it. If he had run slower, he estimated that he would have ended up at the Ectere Medical Service Center.

With me here, what are you afraid of.

West Germany naturally replied.

Lan Qi heard this and thought about it for a long time.

Why didn't he feel any actual bodyguard service back when he had an eighth-rank bodyguard in the Southern Continent

That's right, with eight bodyguards, they should be arrogant and do whatever they want!

"Miss West, you must be very popular, right"

Finally, Ranch asked.

"Why do you ask It's true that I am well-loved by my subordinates."

West Germany responded with some confusion.

Randy nodded.

Of course, the difference between popular and unpopular women is immediately apparent.
