Chapter 29

Homesickness
Finally, the course placement for the knight department was announced.
Sheila’s complete victory in the competency tests placed her in the special course, just as she had hoped. It was unprecedented for a commoner to join the special course, and when the announcement was made, it was as if a beehive had been poked.
Cody, Zechs, and Seiryuu were as happy as she was. There were also a few people here and there who approved, like Leidyrune and Regress. However, there were definitely a certain number of aristocrats who were averse to the idea of a commoner joining the special course.
The following week, after the lunar day, the special course’s classes finally began. Sheila didn’t expect them to accept her without any problems at all, but she would like to do so without any friction if possible.
When she won the battle against Leidyrune, many people congratulated her. However, not everyone at that time was on her side. It was such a rare thing for a commoner to attend the special course.
Anyway, Sheila managed to make it through the week.
As she sat down on her bed, after saying her usual prayers before going to bed, her eyes were suddenly drawn to the moon outside the window.
A bright starry sky with a full moon. If she listened carefully, she could hear the hooting of an owl. Sheila thought as she soaked in the beautiful scenery.
‘That’s right. Let’s go hunting.’
