Chapter 31
As Leo entered the classroom, he was greeted by the familiar voices of his classmates. It was a bright and sunny morning, and the weekend had just passed.
"Good morning, Leo!" called out one of his classmates, a cheerful greeting that was echoed by the others in the room.
Leo smiled in response, pleased to be back in the company of his friends. "Did you have a good weekend?" he asked, making his way to his seat.
Tade, one of Leo's closest friends, was the first to approach him. "Leo, I heard you met the student council president over the weekend!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with excitement.
Illyana, who had come up to Leo with her arms crossed, looked surprised. "Everyone was saying that you were close with Celia Gerdinger of Class 1, and now you've even met with the student council president?" she asked, her tone incredulous.
It was true that Leo and Celia were cousins, but only Karl and Chelsi knew the truth. To the rest of the class, it was a mystery why Leo seemed to be so well-connected.
"Are you interested in becoming the next student council president?" Illyana asked curiously.
Tade was quick to chime in. "Of course! He's the strongest among Lumeln's ranks!" he exclaimed. "Good family background, good skills, good grades, and he's handsome too. Leo, have you been recommended to join the student council?"
Leo was a highly-regarded talent of Lumeln academy.
