59 Roomates

Alvert scolded the students and force them to go back inside their rooms. He also told me to enter my room.

The energetic boy that created a scene is called Rennolds Fescudrer from a Marquis family. He told me to call me Renn. And the other two are Regan Lynton from a Baron family and Julian Hevrozdet from a Viscount family.

"We apologize, your highness, for Renn's behavior," Julian said as he nudged Renn on the arm. Renn grinned sheepishly.

"It's okay. My brothers are way more energetic," I said.

"Woah, the famous sons of Conover," Regan's eyes sparkled. "I always wanted to meet them,"

My brothers were that famous?

"But we're lucky enough to be roommates with the Coordinator," Julian said.

"Right?!" Renn exclaimed. "Can we see your demons?! I wanted to see them so bad! They're the strongest being in the entire world!"

"Renn, you're too loud!" Regan smacked Renn's head.

"Argh!"

"Pfft," I snorted.

Yeah, they reminded me a lot of my brothers.

I already feel like I'm at home.

I yawned, and the others looked at me in unison.

"We should let you rest. We'll have to wake up early tomorrow," Julian mentioned.

"Ugh, class," Regan whined. Renn pouted and nodded too.

I sit down on my bed. All of us have separate beds in each corner of the room. I stretched my hands and took off my shoes.

"It's okay if I sleep first right?"

"Of course! do you want me to read you a bedtime story?" Renn offered.

"... Renn, I forgot that you're never aware of your position," Regan said in astonishment. "Young master Ezra is in way higher position than you and you offered him a bedtime story,"

Julian shook his head. Renn pouted at him.

I laughed. "It's okay! Also, please don't use honorifics. Just call me Ezra,"

"See? he said it's okay," Renn said. Regan rolled his eyes playfully.

Julian looked over to me.

"You're kind, young mas- uh, Ezra," He blushed. "We're just not used to it yet. Everyone used honorifics here. Our family's rank is important,"

"Why?"

The three of them looked at each other, then Regan looked at me with a frown.

"Ranking system is a big thing here,"

Oh, this reminded me of my own demon ranks. Low-leveled, mid-leveled, and high-leveled ones. I could already tell what they're trying to say.

Students who come from low ranked families will be treated badly. I frowned at the thought. Maybe this school isn't like what I thought it would be. This is still a cruel reality where people will do anything to aim for the top.

"I see. Well, I don't want to join that system. I'll befriend anyone I like,"

Regan, Renn, and Julian's face brightened.

"As expected from a proud Conover family," Julian said happily.

"Yeah! Ezra is the best!" Renn jumped onto me and gave me a big hug. I blinked, dumbfounded.

"Renn!" Regan and Julian screamed in panic.

"What?" Renn blinked.

I paused for a moment before bursting into laughter.

Then the others laughed with me.
