Henry took a peek at the four students going towards the unsettling gate.
And he replayed their first meeting.
The first things he saw were their feet and their deadly gaze.
However, after they discovered he was a noble, things became much easier.
They were gullible friends to hang out with, freely chatting while fighting monsters and having late-night bonfire discussions. To put it another way, they were gifted, noble students. No monster could have a chance against the four of them.
They didn't expect anything from him, but it wasn't until he showed his proficiency with his grass element that they truly welcomed him.
But there was one issue.
They were battle maniacs who occasionally mentioned hunting out commoners.
Henry hoped they didn't run across Riel because that would be disastrous.
A calamity for these four people.
Now let's return to the present.
