Despite arriving very early in the morning, the school was already full of Year 3 students including their parents who were unfortunately not allowed to enter the school grounds as the teachers feared untoward events.
They were also told to leave as soon as possible so as not to disturb the students who wanted to study.
In the end, they came for encouragement and that caused shouts to echo every now and then.
Isabel herself chose not to get out of the car, but it was a little funny that she gave 100 Euros each to Arthur and Carla.
It was certainly a sizable amount for high school students. Carla seemed happy about it.
When the two got out of the car, Isabel left immediately.
However, Arthur and Carla did not go straight to the schoolyard because at this moment, there was a Black Lamborghini coming. Whose car was it again if not Amanda's.
Vrom!
The car was making quite a commotion. It stopped in front of Arthur and Carla.
Its passenger door opened, revealing the figures of Bella and Amanda. The former was as usual, wearing a short skirt while the latter was wearing sunglasses.
She took them off and looked at Arthur, showing her blue eyes which for a moment, emitted a strange light.
It was of course due to her illusionary powers, which meant she was already a magus.
The moment Arthur looked into her eyes, he could feel something trying to invade his mind. If he wasn't strong enough, he would definitely be dazed.

"You should practice more to try to attack me with your magic," Arthur replied.
Actually, illusion magic is a difficult magic plus its power is also limited.
For example, at the Apprentice Magus stage, at most illusion magic can only make others dazed or asleep.
In battle, someone with illusion magic is more suitable for a supporting role.
Of course, if it was one-on-one, that type of magus could be at a huge advantage.
If they dazed their enemy for even just a second or two, they could easily kill their enemy.
"Hey, Arthur!" Bella suddenly spoke so that Arthur turned his gaze to her.
She also already had the aura of a magus but somehow today her expression didn't look as relaxed as usual, she looked gloomy, as if in a bad mood.
"What?" asked Arthur.
Carla who was standing beside him knitted her brows as she saw her best friend's expression.
She wondered how many times she had seen such an expression from ber.
At the same time, Amanda suddenly sighed lightly.
"Bella, is there a problem?" Carla finally asked.
And Bella didn't answer, just pressed her lips together while taking a deep breath.
In a situation like this, she could only stare at Amanda, hoping she would tell her what the problem was.
After glancing at Arthur, the woman said, "she will move to Southeast Asia after the graduation ceremony!"
"Southeast Asia?" Even Arthur was stunned when he heard about it, forgetting the word move which was probably the core of Bella's gloom.
Of course, moving is a normal thing for anyone, but a European descendant going to Southeast Asia -- although it was also not a rare case, it was very strange for a Bella.
The question is what will the girl do there?
It's practically on the other side of the world or at the end of it, and you still have to go to the southern part of it.
The territory there is divided into many islands and all the countries there are still developing countries. There are significant differences with Europe. Maybe only a few cities have subways.
Carla was more surprised, looking at Bella with an expression of disbelief.
"Wh-what are you going to do there?" She asked straight to the point.
"Nothing, just living there..." Bella finally answered.
From her words, the problem seems to be here, Europe.
Maybe she should move to avoid something.
"If there's a problem, let me know," Arthur told Amanda. "All of us here are no longer mere mortals, so if there's a problem, we'll deal with those people with force. You know, I don't like to see my people being bullied."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing his words, Amanda smiled.
"Indeed, but this time there is a little difficulty," she replied.
"What is it?"
"That man (my father), I don't know what came over him, but suddenly he called and wanted Bella to get engaged to a prince from England. It's strange because he never tried to set us up before. However, since he's already agreed, it's become difficult for us."
"Prince from England?" Arthur showed a strange expression and looked at Bella.
If we talk about power, the kingdom there can indeed be said to be very powerful. There were quite a few military members loyal to them. Most are descendants of their knights in the past.
It's difficult to deal with them in Europe. Most people usually choose to move to faraway places.
"Wait, does that prince want Bella too?" Carla asked.
"Yes, they've met," Amanda replied.
"I'm sure that whore influenced my father, maybe she had some purpose, or the prince gave her a gift if she helped him," she added.
"Arthur, you're going to help me, right? That prince isn't exactly handsome." Bella said, looking at Arthur with teary eyes.
Given her usually smiling face and her sad expression now, it was hard for anyone not to feel sorry for her.
Affairs like this were usually something Arthur disliked, but Bella had become part of his group. Even if she hadn't made any significant contributions, her problems would still be his problems. And he didn't like others bullying his people.
"Tell your father that you refuse! If anyone wants to come to do something, tell them to come," Arthur replied.
He didn't say more.
After that, he turned around and took a step.
At the same time, Bella finally smiled again.
"Please wait!" She got out of the car and chased after Arthur in a hurry.
