Electives [2]

Inside the library, Claire looked at the rankings on her phone and carefully scanned it.

Ever since the new rankings were announced, she had been staring at it for the past few hours or so.

"Claire."

She knew her performance had dropped ever since the Battle Royale.

But she couldn't help it.

Her mind was occupied with a lot of things.

"Claire?"

She had suffered a humiliating defeat against Brandon. It wasn't even close.

Brandon Locke.

The younger brother of the current student council president.

A Deviant.

A Tri-Eleme–

No, a Penta-Elemental Mage.

And the man she had initially looked down upon.

And to add fuel to the fire, he was now the top ranking student of the first years.

"Claire…?"

She had never cared about him in the first place. To her he was like an ant.

But that was before.

In other words, she was wrong about him.
