Book 2: Chapter 26: Side story: Raymond's Determination Second Part
Enter the academy’s middle school and find a master during the first year.
After Raymond had decided to do this, he immediately began to look for more information about the young Lady, who might become his future master.
Her name was Sophia Rosenberg. Even though she was the daughter of a Marquis, she wasn’t old enough to attend many parties yet. Nevertheless, she had gathered enough attention for the rumors about her to have reached even the ears of the commoners.
According to these rumors, she was a saintess that descended upon high society.
Although she was just 12 years old, it was said that her conduct could put adults to shame. She was also extremely quick on her feet and was able to accurately respond to unexpected situations. Of course, just because the Rosenberg household employed a lot of commoners didn’t necessarily mean that she would go as far as to treat them kindly herself, but in his current situation, she was the best employer candidate he could think of. Determined that he had to do what he could to get hired by her no matter what, Raymond slow began to plot his future.
His first chance to realize his beautiful vision of the future came sooner than he had expected. During the written examination of the academy’s middle school entrance exams, a young Lady made an appearance in the assembly hall, her glistening platinum blonde hair fluttering behind her. Raymond found that the girl who had quickly become the centre of the crowd’s focus sported the shiny, Rosenberg household crest on her collar. While her beautiful features appeared to be a little headstrong, her expression remained gentle throughout. The young Lady, having a prior understanding that she was rumored to be a saintess, gave a charming smile.
‘I mustn’t let this opportunity pass me by!’
Of course, he understood that addressing her before the exam was bothersome but even if they both ended up attending the same academy, their courses would be different, leading to it being extremely difficult to be able to talk to her. If he let this chance slip by, he had no idea if he could get another opportunity to talk to her. On the contrary, if they acquainted themselves here, this biggest hurdle would be easily overcome.
Therefore, Raymond, who felt like he was about to be crushed by this pressure, encouraged himself before springing forward.
