Chapter 68

Performance Competition
In the second month of summer, the heat in the royal capital accelerated even further.
In contrast to Sheila’s declining spirits, the sun was gaining more and more momentum. There were days when she would be reprimanded by Claushezade for her lack of concentration during practice.
Less than two months before the competition, Sheila decided she couldn’t go on like this. The students were to be divided by grade and compete for points, so she couldn’t let them down. Of course, her goal was to win.
“Let’s definitely win this thing, guys!”
In the dormitory common room, Sheila raised her fist in the air. But no one else’s voice echoed with hers. Cody was laughing weakly, and Zechs was just giving her a lukewarm stare.
“…. Eh?”
“Calm down, Sheila. I don’t see why you’re getting so worked up.”
It was supposed to be a one-time event for the entire academy, so why was there such a difference in enthusiasm? Sheila furrowed her eyebrows and pursed her lips.
“I mean, Zechs said it before, right? The royal family and aristocrats will come to observe the event, so it’s a chance to show them our skills and be picked up.”
