Today I am sitting on a bench in the courtyard chatting with my sisters.

'How is your school life?' Elias. Anything you need help with? 'I can always help you with advice.'

'I have reliable classmates who help me and it's a lot of fun. I don't have any particular problems.'

 The truth is that I have Albert to deal with, but I can't involve my sisters.

 I'm curious about what my sisters think about Albert, however.

 Five years ago, I met Albert and Emily when I entered the royal capital.

 My sisters were with me at that time.

 I don't know why my sisters wanted to go to the Royal Capital then, but do they remember Albert?

'Yes. That's good. With your energy and abilities, I'm not worried about you. But you should eat properly. You don't want to get sick".

Sister Leah is right. Elias, you have great abilities. Your first place in the ranking at the time of the entrance examinations is amazing, and you have so far not lost any rankings matches and have remained in the first place in the ranking. Even the teachers are talking about how brilliant you are, not only in magic theory, but also in magical tool theory and other areas as well. But humans are not all-powerful. Tiredness and lack of sleep can make a person ill. Well, I'm sure you're aware of that. But as a sister, I worry about you. Even for such a brilliant little brother. Just like sister Leah, I'm always here for you."

'Thank you, Sister Leah, Sister Rhea."

 Sister Leah, who was so hostile towards me during my childhood, has become kinder over the years.

I never thought I'd hear 'I'll always be there for you' from Leah's mouth.

 Sister Rhea, perhaps as a reaction to her old silence, has become a tremendously talkative person.

 If she knows I'm unbeaten in the ranks, it's possible that she's also aware of what's going on around me.

 I can say to both of my sisters that I am grateful for their concern for my wellbeing.

I don't seem to have anything more to tell them about myself, so I ask how are they doing

'What about you, sisters? How is your school life?'

'Me? I'm not so good at ...... theory, so I'm trying to improve my practical skills. But I've been slipping lately. I'm second in the all-years ranking and I've fallen to fourth. I've never beaten Louisa before. But one day I will win. You've made me feel that way, Elias."

"Me?"

Yes. I've been living a carefree life and I didn't question it. But when I watched you going into the dungeons and being active in the tournament, I started to question my lifestyle. I wondered if I could keep going like this. I know I'm falling behind because I've been slacking off, but one day I want to come close enough to you to watch your back."

'What are you talking about? You're better than me, sister Leah."

"That's the extent of your modesty. I have to learn from your modesty, but be careful, it might put some people on their guard".

I am sorry. I'll keep that in mind.

" No need to apologise. Ha-ha-ha."

 I thought I said it from the bottom of my heart, but Leah seems to have been upset.

 I'm not very good at understanding the human mind, that's my weakness.

'How about you, Sister Rhea?'

'I'm the complete opposite of Leah, I'm not very good at practical skills. I've given up on moving up the ranks. I've trained myself well enough to be able to fight back if challenged. I want to be a magic researcher instead of a magician when I graduate."

"It's great that you're thinking about your future."

'Not really. I am dealing with reality. In this country, magicians are superior. Those without magical talent have to take a different path.'

'I see. But it's wonderful to be of help to someone else."

'As always, Elias."

"I see. Ha-ha."

"Break time is almost up. Shall we go?"

"Yes."

 It was nice to talk to the sisters today.

 The sisters are also struggling with a lot of problems.

 I also have to deal with the problems that surround me.
