I tried to take it off again, but this time with more force.

Crack~~ Crack~~

The armor broke and shattered to the ground.

The helmet is in my hand, but the armor is...

I glanced around to see if there was someone around or not.

Sigh~~

"There is no one"

I put the helmet on the broken armor, which was lying on the ground.

Daulla was standing right behind me.

How and when did she get here?!

She looked down at the broken armor and then looked at me.

"What is this?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Why did you break the statue?"

"Break? I just touched it, nothing else"

"I saw you pulling off the helmet with all your strength"

"That must have been your imagination. There was some dust on the helmet, I was just trying to clean it"

"Is that so?"

Crack~~

I looked back.

The helmet also broke.

"Yes. I am innocent here"

"I see"

"Yeah! What a weak statue. They are not worth it. I will get rid of them"

"One piece is of two billion for your information"

"No wonder they are weak. Buy some expensive ones"

"...."

"Well then, I will be waiting for you in the garden"

Daulla closed her eyes and smiled brightly.

Ah! I know this smile.

She smiles like that when she is about to smack.

Without wasting a single second, I ran off from there.

"Where do you think you are going?"

"Heh. I am not a kid anymore. You can't catch me--hey! That's cheating! Don't use your system!"

"You can use yours too"

If I use my system, I will surely end up slamming into one of the walls.

I ran as fast as I could without using my system.

"You think you can run from me?"

"I don't"

Daulla jumped on me to hug me--huh?

She suddenly stopped as if she remembered something.

"Let's go to the garden and train"

"Daulla, can I ask why are you avoiding me?"

"I am not"

"No, you are. You haven't touched me since morning"

If this is because of what happened last night, then why was she acting normally in the morning?

"How do you expect me to act after you said all those things last night?" Her face flushed as she said that.

"But...you were acting normally in the morning"

"That's because....well whatever, I will be back to normal after some time"

"Okay"

If I knew this would happen, then I wouldn't have said that.

Sigh~~

Daulla and I went to the garden and continued my training.

"Am I doing it right, Daulla?"

"It's still a little off. Keep doing it, you will get that hang of it. And it's master!"

"Yes, master!"

I am learning different types of swings.

"How about now, master?"

"Hmm. It's okay. Go to the next step now"

"Yes, master"

Even though I just ate breakfast, I feel hungry.

This training really sucks too much energy.

I am missing mom's cooking.

It's already past 11 AM. It will be break time soon at school.

Usually, I eat lunch with Elena at this time, but...wait. Today's date is...

"Daulla!"

"It's master!"

"I need to go now"

"Go where?"

"School--I mean, to meet Elena!"

"Why so suddenly? Are you missing her that much that you want to leave your training?"

"No--I mean, yes! I miss her! But I want to go to school for a different reason"

"And that is?"

"It's 9th July today"

"What's on 9th of July?"

"Our one-year anniversary!"

"Oh? It's been one year since you two started dating?"

"No, it's been one year since our first unofficial date"

"Do you really have to go? Can't you wait for the evening?"

"If possible, then I want to go now"

Sigh~~

"Seeing you so desperate to meet her makes me want to not let you go"

"...."

"Don't look at me like that. You can go"

"Thanks"

"But, come back in an hour, got it?"

"Okay!"

I gave the sword to Daulla and ran to my room to change the clothes. After changing clothes, I went to school.

Daulla insisted on taking the car, but...I don't want to waste my time driving it. Besides, I am sure that I am faster than a car if I use my system.

The school gate will have security,

Sigh~~

I will just jump my way to the rooms.

I jumped the backside wall of the school to enter the school.

"I have to make sure that none of the cameras catch me" 

Only if I could jam them...I did that once, but that time I wasn't aware of my system or more like I did it unconsciously. 

I can't just enter the school like this and besides, I am not wearing the uniform.

The only way I can meet Elena is to go in through Serah's office.

I will meet Serah there and ask her to call Elena for me.

I climbed the building by jumping on the trees and walls.

Which one is Serah's office again?

"Every room looks the same from the outside"

I went to the nearest window and peeked in from the window.

"Nope"

I went to the window of the next room and peeked.

"Not here either"

"I went to the next one and peeked--here it is! Wait...

"What is Elena doing in there?"

She and Serah are talking about something.

The window is closed, so I can't hear anything but...

I brought my ears close to the wall.

"Do you understand it now?"

It's Serah's voice.

"Yes"

Elena's voice!

"Are you sure?"

"Can you explain it one more time?"

Serah is teaching Elena? But it's lunch break. Why is she teaching Elena during the lunch break?

"You don't have to force yourself to study, Elena"

Huh?

"I am not forcing myself"

"You can still pass with your current performance"

"I don't just want to pass, I want to score more"

"That means you are forcing yourself"

"I want to score without Das's help this time"
