Leo hurriedly went to look inside each one of the rooms for the 1st year students of the Silver Mage Academy until he finally found Cassandra. She was unexpectedly a student of the 1S+.

Along the way, Leo couldn't help but be amused at how the Silver Mage Academy had arranged the room's base on the sign (+) (-) (no sign) in the class section. In the east wing of the building, where his room was located, was all the class section with (-) sign, in the south wing was the class with (no sign), and finally the (+) sign in the west wing, opposite from his classroom location.

Moreover, he realized that the entire building was a huge square. And in the middle of the square building was a large stadium. Though the stadium used for the opening ceremony was still bigger than it, it was still amazing to think of such an idea.

With such a large stadium in the middle, every 1st-year student would be able to see any fight even if they were not sitting inside the stadium itself. Though they could only watch it a bit far, it was still manageable since they were located at the top, hence the view could still allow each one of them to see the entire action on stage.

As soon as Leo arrived outside Cassandra's classroom, he noticed that there were two groups of students inside the room. One group is with Cassandra, while the other is with the student representative, Elizabeth Snow.

Leo could already somewhat feel the tension between the two groups just from being outside the room, too. He could even see some kind of electricity constantly shooting off from both groups.

It was just the first day of class, yet such competition was already happening.

Leo can't imagine how the situation of each of the eighteen class sections would likely develop as the days in the Silver Mage Academy continue.

Looking inside, he could see that Cassandra was currently not showing any interest in what her classmates were thinking about as she just looked at the window. Her seat was in a similar position as Leo's in his room.

"Cassandra, over here!" Leo suddenly called out.

Cassandra immediately turned her head as she heard a familiar voice calling her her usual cold demeanor was suddenly replaced with a warm expression. She let out a smile towards Leo before quickly approaching him.

Just now, Cassandra's smile made her more attractive to look at. All the students of Class 1S+ were instantly mesmerized by it and couldn't help but turn their attention around towards the guy who had made such a beautiful woman show such a side of her.

"What happened in your room?" Leo asked without feeling embarrassed at her classmate's stare. If looks could kill, he would be minced into pieces right this moment.

"A useless competition started by the student representative. Nothing to worry about, I'm not interested in such nonsense stuff, anyway." Cassandra said as she pulled Leo's hand farther from the room. She thought that if they stayed any longer, trouble would soon follow along.

Alfred at the side was stuck in disbelief. He can't believe that Leo has such beauty as his woman.

"Hey Alfred, you coming?" Leo called out, which immediately pulled Alfred back to reality.

"Yes, wait up!" Alfred yelled out as he ran towards Leo and Cassandra.

"This is Alfred, my newfound friend, and this is Cassandra, my woman," Leo said introducing both of them.

Cassandra turned red as she got called 'my woman' by Leo. But she quickly shook her head to dismiss any meaningless thoughts. She knew that calling her 'my woman' was his courteous way of calling her 'my slave'. Also, this was something they had agreed beforehand so that anyone who thinks of searching about her identity would simply assume she's a commoner. According to Leo, nobody would dare think that his woman would be someone special due to the state of the Heart City.

Alfred immediately rebutted, "What are you saying? We are brothers! Brothers!"

Leo just laughed at Alfred's claim as they continued walking along the hallway.

.....

Leo, Cassandra, and Alfred toured around the entire Silver Mage Academy the entire afternoon.

Alfred had the same reaction as Leo as soon as they finished touring for the day.

"Despite actually spending an entire day, they were only able to explore half of the entire Academy." Such a thought was obviously what Alfred was thinking about at this moment.

On the opposite hand, Leo and Cassandra have finally completed their exploration of the entire Silver Mage Academy, since the places they chose to tour were the area that they weren't able to finish touring.

Since it was already night, Leo invited Cassandra and Alfred to eat their dinner in a restaurant he was familiar with.

Leo had again chosen the Crescent Moon Dining to eat their dinner.

The moment Leo arrived, a waiter immediately greeted him respectfully and took his group to a VIP room.

The Crescent Moon Dining doesn't dare anymore to let Leo, especially with his woman, Cassandra, around him, just sit along with the ordinary people.

Although Leo doesn't mind sitting with ordinary people, since he was used to always interacting with ordinary people all these years, the restaurant itself does mind about it though.

Last night, some random small gang suddenly caused trouble at their restaurant because of being attracted to Cassandra. They don't dare imagine what will probably attack them next, so they can only take Leo and his group to a private room and hide them inside.

In addition to that, Leo is already considered a VIP in Crescent Moon Dining. In fact, he was even considered a VVVIP, because of how frequently he visited their restaurant.

"Sir Leo, may I take your orders?" The same waiter who took Leo's order last night came inside their room to take their order.

"The same as yesterday, how about you, Alfred?" Leo said as he turned towards Alfred.

"I also want the same as yours. I want to do everything like you starting today so that I can also have a beauty like Cassandra as my woman!" Alfred said in a joking manner.

Leo wanted to loudly laugh at his joke, but he just couldn't find any reasonable excuse to do it.

If only Alfred knew that having Cassandra was not what he had imagined, he would probably change his mind as quickly as how fishes escape the moment an unfamiliar movement is made in the water.

The waiter soon left, but just a second later he hurriedly came back inside with a grave expression on his face. Obviously, something serious was currently happening outside.

"Sir Leo, ah... There's a group of people looking for you outside the restaurant right now," The waiter said in hesitation.

Leo's mood instantly turned sour upon hearing what the waiter had said. He is really hungry but someone dared to look for him?

Based on his memory, he had no relationship with other people within Silver City, aside of course from Madam Silva and Alfred.

Alfred was with him, and Madam Silva would usually be very busy at this time of the night, hence she wouldn't come looking for him. Moreover, Madam Silva wouldn't just come to find him without any notice or something important, too.

Leo could only shake his head, feeling helpless. He stood up from his seat and walked outside of the VIP room to look for the people looking for him. He thought in his mind, "If it's not important, I swear I'll summon my Elemental to beat the crap out of all of you!"

Not long after, Leo arrived at the entrance of the restaurant.

Outside, he saw 9 unfamiliar faces waiting for him. Wait... their faces actually look somewhat familiar. He just can't remember where he had seen them.

"Are you, Leo?" A muscular man approached him with a solemn face.

"Will I come out if I wasn't? Stop with your stupid nonsensical bull crap and get right to the point! What do you want? Answer that question quickly because I want to eat my dinner as soon as possible!" Leo said, obviously annoyed.

Naturally, Leo was annoyed at this moment. They were looking for him, yet he didn't even know who this group of people was!

"Oh, he got guts!"

"Ha, he's just a newborn lamb that doesn't know yet what a wolf is!"

"You would surely regret that you talked to brother Jake in such a way..."

"I told you to cut the nonsense! Are you deaf? Do you need me to buy a shovel to clean up your ears? Maybe a cauldron worth of wax has blocked your ear inside!" Leo interrupted the minions from their 'Let's scare him with our lines' sort of the usual thing that thugs and small gangs in the street usually use.

"I like this guy!" The muscular man named Jake said with a laugh as he added, "How about this Leo, give me Cassandra and I'll make you join our group! We are from Class 1S+, so having us as your backer would surely make your life easier in the Silver Mage Academy." He finished while spreading his arms to both his side expressing so arrogantly.

Leo finally realized why they looked somewhat familiar. They were one of those students who had to choose to become part of Cassandra's group in the classroom of Class 1S+.

"Oh, is that so? How about let's go in that alleyway to see whether you're deserving of being a member of Class 1S+, then?" Leo said as he showed a mischievous smile on his face.

This group of people clearly doesn't know yet about their class section being close to the definition of useless in the Class Ranking at this moment.

At the same time, Leo can't believe that trouble once again knocked at his door on this day... I mean night. It was also coincidentally at the same restaurant and at the same time as the last time.

"Hey, why don't you just make me dine in peace?!" Leo asked while looking towards the sky.
