Kiran’s wings, sealed within the crystal orb, caught Leo’s attention as he drifted into thought.
‘Could this be the source of power enabling that unbelievable Slime ability?’
Kiran.
The Fairy Prince.
A Royal Fairy and the future Fairy King, albeit one who, due to his mischievous antics, had all his wings stripped away by the current Fairy King, Silrod, as a punishment and was subsequently exiled from Fairy Land.
Although he had managed to retrieve one pair of wings, he was still missing two more pairs.
And now, one of the remaining pairs was here.
Leo recalled Kiran.
The Island of Beasts located in Lumeria Lake.
It was said that Kiran, now settled there, was playing all kinds of pranks on the freshman summoners.
Of course, the source of this information was none other than Fiora, Kiran’s nemesis.
‘Well, at least he doesn’t seem to be taking things too far.’
While Leo was lost in thought.
Chloe and Tina were engaged in a heated discussion about Magic Theory.
“Hmm. So this is your unique magical sigil? Very impressive.”
Tina was clearly impressed by Chloe’s personal magic: [Ice World].
“Yes, so for this midterm assignment, I’m thinking of applying [Ice World].”
“Applying Field Magic to Servant Familiar Magic, huh? Very interesting idea.”
Tina’s eyes lit up.
“What about you, Leo? What do you plan to do for your test assignment?”
“I’m thinking of experimenting with Spirits.”
“Spirits? Certainly, versatility is a good thing.”
Tina smiled faintly.
“By the way, there’s something I wanted to ask.”
“What is it?”
“Where did you get that thing?”
Leo pointed at the crystal orb.
Watching Leo, Tina smiled meaningfully.
“Perceptive, aren’t you?”
Tina reached out, picked up the crystal orb and placed it on the desk.
Seeing this, Chloe tilted her head in confusion.
“What’s this wing inside it?”
“It’s a Fairy’s wing.”
Upon hearing this, Chloe was visibly startled.
Watching Chloe’s reaction, Tina turned to Leo.
“Guess the fact that it reacted to you means you’re indeed an All-Class?”
“That’s right.”
“So, do you want it?”
“Are you giving it to me?”
Smiling, Leo asked, to which Tina grinned in return.
“Would you do me a favor?”
“What kind of favor?”
“I’d like to… thoroughly… examine you.”
“Thoroughly examine me?”
Chloe suddenly showed a flustered expression at the words.
Watching Chloe, Tina spoke in her usual emotionless tone.
“I was just saying I’m curious about the abilities of an All-Class. What were you thinking?”
“A, ah … nothing…”
“Or were you imagining I’d completely strip you?…”
“No! It’s not like that!”
Chloe’s face turned bright red, and she waved her hands frantically.
“Well? Don’t you feel like entrusting your body to me?”
To this question from Tina, Leo shook his head.
“I’ll pass.”
“That’s disappointing.”
With a carefree smile, Tina returned the crystal orb to its original place.
“If you ever have questions, feel free to ask. If you’re interested in dissection, you’re more than welcome.”
Tina, who had come out to greet them to the door of her office, silently disappeared back inside.
Walking silently down the hallway, Chloe finally spoke.
“Leo, look, I didn’t have those kinds of thoughts, okay?”
“What thoughts?”
“Like… That! Never mind! Let’s hurry and go eat dinner!”
Chloe gave a fake cough and walked away.
Smiling faintly at her back, Leo followed.
That evening.
In his dorm room, Leo summoned Kiran.
Wooom—
Kiran’s face poked out of the summoning circle.
[What’s up, Leo?]
“I found one of your wings.”
[What?! Really?!]
Kiran’s eyes widened, and he whooped with joy, flying around the room in circles.
Each time Kiran flapped his wings, specks of silver sparkled and drifted in the air.
Phoenix, in her human form thanks to Kiran’s magic, munched on cookies with a scoffing glance.
“Don’t spread dust around, you clumsy Fairy.”
[Huh? What’s that noise coming from Bioenix?]
“Bioenix? Are you calling me a fool? I’m Phoenix!”
[Yup. Just a foolish Phoenix. Offering to be called that because I want it. Also, eating too many snacks, getting piggy?]
“Who are you calling a pig?!”
Furious, Phoenix pulled out a flyswatter from her sleeve and swung it wildly at Kiran.
Swish! Swish!
-Do you really think such a pathetic attack can catch me?
Kiran performed acrobatic stunts in the air, teasing Phoenix.
Watching all this, Arti approached Leo.
“Master.”
“Yes?”
“Could you also criticize me as a pig and whip me with a flyswatter?”
Twisting her body, speaking these words, Arti caused Leo to clasp his head in exasperation.
“Arti.”
“Yes, Master.”
“I didn’t want to say this, but…”
“Yes.”
“You are a Pegasus, right?”
“That’s correct.”
“The Familiar I contracted with in my past life was also a Pegasus.”
Leo sent a somewhat skeptical look towards Arti.
“He was always serious. Not that I’ll demand complete seriousness all the time, but can you refrain from such perverted requests every time you see me?”
At Leo’s words, Arti’s face froze.
“…So… Am I implying, when compared to the past master, I’m excessively vulgar and embarrassing compared to that Pegasus?”
“I didn’t say it that way.”
“I see… I’ve been disappointing you, haven’t I?”
Arti lowered her head deeply.
Arti’s body started to quiver.
Seeing this, Elshi wore a worried expression.
[Even if that’s true, Arti has been working hard and a great help when we fight. Those words were a bit harsh.]
Hearing Elshi’s words, Leo gave an indifferent look.
“Isn’t it too much, for her to be happy hearing something like that?”
[Eh?]
Hearing Leo’s words, Elshi appeared surprised, then flew over to look at Arti’s face.
Arti, who had lowered her head, had a flushed face filled with an expression of ecstasy.
“Vulgar and embarrassing Pegasus… Ah! Who in this world would dare say such harsh words to me!…”
Covering her face with her hands, Elshi wept.
Watching Elshi’s reaction, Leo sighed.
“…Eh?”
[The fact that someone like her is my teammate is truly embarrassing.]
“Ah!”
Hearing Elshi’s words, Arti clutched her heart and collapsed onto the floor.
“Even Elshi-sama is scorning me… How wonderful.”
‘The longer this goes on, the worse it gets.’
While observing the perverted Pegasus, Leo sighed.
[Uwahaha! Bioenix! Bioenix!]
“Right there!”
Kiran, performing dazzling acrobatics through the air, suddenly turned in Elshi’s direction.
Phoenix, glaring fiercely, raised the flyswatter and swung it toward Kiran.
Whoosh! Crack!
“Eh?”
“Ah?”
Phoenix’s flyswatter accidentally struck Elshi.
Elshi collapsed to the floor in silence.
Phoenix quickly hid the flyswatter behind her back, while Kiran hid behind Arti.
And simultaneously cried out:
“It was that Fairy’s fault!”
[It was that Phoenix’s fault!]
Elshi rose to her feet.
Flashing dark eyes could be seen between her black strands of hair.
‘She’s mad.’
Leo internally clicked his tongue.
Though he hasn’t seen this expression from Phoenix and Kiran, Leo knows exactly what it resembles.
This isn’t the current Elshi.
It’s a distant memory of a past Elshi.
From a long-ago era where she had lost everything and burned with hatred.
Elshi, now grown to adult size thanks to Leo’s spiritual energy, extended her hand.
A shadow quickly consumed the flyswatter held by Phoenix.
Having taken the flyswatter, Elshi mercilessly struck Kiran.
[Kuh?! Wait! Guh?!]
Without changing her expression, Elshi completely dismantled Kiran before turning to Phoenix.
“Walk over here.”
“I didn’t do anything wrong! And I’ve never been hit, not even by my mom….”
“Walk over here.”
Phoenix hung her head and stepped forward.
Elshi turned the flyswatter upside down and mercilessly struck her calves.
In the blink of an eye, Elshi subdued the dream Familiars of summoners everywhere: the Fairy and the Phoenix with her cold tone of voice.
“If you keep behaving recklessly, I’ll show you no mercy next time. Understand that.”
[Yes! Yes Sir!…]
“Yes…”
Phoenix, resembling a mosquito crushed by the flyswatter, and Phoenix gripping her calves while sobbing responded in meek tones.
Oppressed by Elshi’s terrifying aura, the other summons made no sound at all.
Observing this, Leo looked back at Arti hiding behind him and spoke.
“Don’t you want me to punish you too? You like that kind of thing, don’t you?”
“I don’t want to be punished by Elshi-sama like that.”
Noticing the bizarrely perceptive Pegasus, Leo sighed faintly.
[An Elf is carrying my wings?!]
Kiran’s eyes lit up with excitement.
Kiran, who had long been losing his strength, had always wanted to retrieve his wings since ancient times.
After reclaiming all his wings and regaining his original status, the Fairy Prince’s position would be restored.
With Leo’s announcement of finding one of the lost wings, there was enough excitement to stir Kiran.
[Then what are we waiting for! We should go right now!]
“The one who currently has it is that special-appointment lecturer.”
[Huh? The owner of the wings is the Elf?!]
Kiran with his hands on his waist, frowned severely.
“Still, the one currently holding it is Professor Tina.”
[Hmph! Once I regain my strength, it’ll benefit you too Leo, so why are you being so cautious?]
After laughing condescendingly, Kiran spread his wings and exclaimed while flying toward the window.
[We’ll see! I’ll come to retrieve my wings!]
Watching the confident Kiran, Leo leaned on his chin.
“It’s not going to be easy.”
[What kind of person is this Tina Elf Lecturer?]
Elshi, who had returned to her usual palm-sized figure, asked curiously.
“He’s eccentric.”
[Hmm, can’t imagine that. Anyway, will Kiran be in any trouble if he’s caught?]
Elshi, holding a spoon as tall as herself, added sugar to her tea while asking.
“Well, she might try to dissect him.”
At Leo’s words, Elshi deeply sighed.
‘I hope nothing bad happens.’

The next day.
The second-year dormitory cafeteria.
Most second-year students usually ate breakfast here.
By doing so, it naturally became the place where all dormitory students gathered to start their day.
That day Leo was eating breakfast alone.
Leo noticed that there were fewer students eating breakfast than usual.
“Leo-nii! Good morning!”
Holding a tray, Chelsea greeted cheerfully and sat in front of Leo.
“Did you sleep well?”
“Yep!”
Gloria Dormitory.
Harmony Dormitory.
Noble Dormitory.
These three dormitories are fundamentally in competition with each other.
So, except at the end of classes or in the evening when students gather, it’s rare for dormitory prefects to share meals during breakfast.
Celia, too, never breakfasted with either her cousin Leo or her best friend Chloe.
However, Chelsea often breakfasted with Leo or Abad.
“Um~”
It seemed Chelsea’s strawberry jam was delicious as she clasped her face and wore an expression of happiness.
Then, suddenly recollecting something, she spoke.
“By the way, have you heard that story, Leo-nii?”
“What story?”
“There was a Fairy that appeared near the second-year dorm last night.”
At Chelsea’s words, Leo looked up at the other students eating and noticed the significant absence of students, especially from the Department of Summoning, almost to the extent of disappearance.
“A lot of people saw it. So now everyone’s in an uproar.”
At Chelsea’s words, Leo covered his face.
‘That guy really did it.’
