"My name is Felicia Ayde Boldenville, the first child of the noble Earl of the Boldenville family. You could say I'm Allen's lord or master," Felicia proclaimed with pride, whipping her hair confidently in the elevator as she made her way to class that day. "Geirhild. I don't care about human nobility," Geirhild replied.

"Geirhild. I don't care about human nobility," Geirhild retorted, her tone devoid of interest.

"I know. I heard about you from Allen," Felicia replied, attempting to bridge the gap.

"Then you should know I won't be friends with just anyone."

"How rude. I'm not just anyone, am I? I'm Allen's master."

"I didn't even intend to be friends with Allen in the first place."

Felicia's expression turned somber upon hearing Geirhild's blunt statement.

"Why do you still want to be friends with this barbarian dwarf?" Felicia turned to Allen for an explanation.

Sharik, interjecting, offered insights. "For dwarves, the term 'friendship' cannot be given casually. They highly value their connections, forming bonds that last a lifetime once made. When dwarves make a promise of friendship, it is a commitment that endures until death."

Allen continued elucidating, "On the day of the opening ceremony, I forged a friendship vow with Geirhild. So, I'm the only one who is friends with her now. Though, I don't mind either. Dwarves are unique; they exhibit genuine warmth once trust is established."

In the guidebook Allen had read, it seemed that dwarves were notoriously secretive, sharing neither information about themselves nor the intricacies of their technology with anyone outside their circle of friends. Now that he was friends with Geirhild, the girl was willing to answer all of Allen's questions without objection.

In fact, the dwarf could have broken off the friendship, but since Geirhild did not, Allen assumed that Geirhild had no regrets about being friends with him in the first place.

Geirhild clarified, "Yeah, that's the deal. I'm only here because of Allen. People like you, however, are the type I detest. I don't understand why your behavior mirrors that of the prince. Human nobility is irksome."

Felicia shot back, "You're annoying too! It turns out I don't really like dwarves!" A thought of Adelskold lingered in her mind.

They finally reached the door of their classroom.

The room fell into an immediate hush upon swinging it open, and every eye turned toward their group. An uncomfortable tension enveloped the space, fueled by the judgmental gazes fixed upon them. It wasn't hard to discern the cause — Felicia's entrance into the academy was based solely on wealth, unlike her peers who had earned their place through the rigorous secunda test.

"Aaah, yes. Wait a minute, I'm gathering souls," Petronella replied with a casual wave of her hand.

"Please do it seriously! We've spent a lot of money to study here!" Hallie exclaimed, her frustration evident. "Unlike the Boldenville family, we don't have enough money to bribe the academy to give us a pass."

'Eh? Suddenly mentioning Boldenville? Bribing?' thought Petronella, puzzled by the sudden mention of the Boldenville family and bribery thought, 'Oh, she's referring to the two kids who took the entrance test yesterday. But they were also tested first, and that test should be impossible; no one seems to know about it.'

"I also asked you to continue the lesson, teacher," Felicia chimed in with a smile. "I honestly want you to take a short break so that you can maximize your performance to teach us, but poor people never have enough patience and enough brain capacity to understand that."

'How dare she,' Petronella thought.

Unable to contain her anger, Hallie stood up and pounded on her desk. "I can't accept what you just said! Miss Felicia! Insulting me like that, do you think it's forgivable?!"

"Really? I think you deserve it. What a shameless person," Felicia retorted, her tone unyielding.

"What did you say?!" Hallie's face reddened, her anger reaching its peak.

"STOP," a commanding voice echoed from behind, emanating from a demi-human gray wolf with a hideous face. "I don't care about human affairs; just get the lesson started! Then that drill-haired girl over there," he pointed at Hallie, "Just realize that you're here to delay today's lesson!"

Next to Hallie, a man slightly taller than her, drew his sword. "You dog," he sneered, "I can't let your filthy mouth say such things to Lady Hallie!"

"I don't care, and I don't want to care. You want to ask me to fight? Then I refuse. My time is too precious to spend it on something useless," the gray wolf replied dismissively.

'Damn, at this rate, the class will be even more chaotic, and I'll get the blame!' thought Petronella. "H-hey, everyone—"

Before Petronella could speak, another person burst into the classroom, creating a loud noise that instantly drew everyone's attention.

"SORRY LATE!" It was Prince Francis, looking sweaty and disheveled as if he had sprinted to class after oversleeping.

"W-what's wrong?" he asked in confusion. "I shouldn't be too late, right?"

His arrival diffused the tense atmosphere in the classroom. Petronella seized the opportunity to regain control, clapping her hands together. "Miss Johnson and her bodyguard, please sit down and mind your own business. Let's get started with the lesson."

In the back, Felicia maintained her smile, seemingly satisfied with the chaos she had stirred.

"You can stop smiling now," Allen said.

"HO HO HO, I can't believe I didn't do this yesterday. It turns out that fighting and provoking people is a lot of fun," Felicia exclaimed.

'What a bad hobby,' thought Allen and Sharik, sharing a silent agreement.
