No Time to Whine!!!
Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3
Cafeteria
Sebek: It is a shame Malleus-sama couldn't join us for lunch today.
Lilia: Indeed. I went to check on him, seems like his class got dragged on.
Sebek: I see… As I thought, the third years are extremely busy.
Lilia: Oh? This expression of yours while waiting for Malleus… it brings back memories.
Sebek: Eh?
Lilia: I think… It was when we returned to Briar Valley in our first year in NRC.
Lilia: You were waiting with the same expression you’re having now, and in the end you cried happily.
Sebek: B-Back then I started crying because of Malleus-sama’s warm words… how embarrassing.
Sebek: I still remember clearly the words the Young Lord told me when he came back to Briar Valley.
Sebek: “You should just attend Night Raven College too”, it deeply moved me.
Sebek: His kind consideration towards his subjects… as expected from the Young Lord!
Silver: You were able to enroll here and on top of that you’re in the same Dorm as Malleus-sama, I’m happy for you Sebek.
Sebek: Yeah. Well, I believed it was impossible for me to be in a different Dorm than the Young Lord!
Sebek: …Oh, my next class is PE. I have to change clothes.
Sebek: I’ll be taking my leave. I’m glad I could talk with you, Lilia-sama!
Sebek: Silver, don’t fall asleep on your next class. …Well then.
Silver: …I thought that after his enrolment here his attitude towards others would change, but…
Silver: As always, seems like he doesn’t intend on deepening his friendship with people outside Briar Valley.
Lilia: Hm… Sebek is strict both with himself and with others.
Lilia: I’m afraid he cannot match with the people around him.
Silver: Thinking of which, ever since Malleus-sama and Father enrolled in Night Raven College…
Silver: Sebek’s training became even more severe.
Lilia: Is that true? Back then I was busy with school life so I couldn't quite keep my eyes on you.
Silver: Even when my enrollment was decided, he congratulated me and said “Don’t trouble the Young Lord”, but…
Silver: For a good time, he stared at my acceptance letter with a stern expression, like the one he does in his training.
Lilia: Hmm… that is reasonable.
Lilia: That one year we went to Night Raven College and Sebek waited for his enrolment…
Lilia: He wouldn’t say it out loud, but he must have felt uneasiness deep inside.
Silver: Uneasiness?
Lilia: In order to be accepted to Night Raven College, a sense for magic is absolutely essential.
Lilia: However Sebek was a late bloomer, right?
Lilia: He must have been worried he wasn’t worthy enough a mage to be accepted.
Lilia: He is a calm and clever child. …Though except when it comes to Malleus.
Lilia: Surely he could evaluate his own magical power objectively.
Silver: …Thinking of which, he was quite shocked when I was able to use magic first.
Lilia: Kufufu, he was indeed. Sebek was so depressed, it was difficult to comfort him!
Silver: Fufu, it brings back memories.
Lilia: …Even if he got a late start as a mage, Sebek was able to compensate for it with knowledge and strength, and he kept enhancing his magic skills.
Lilia: His daily training has led him to Night Raven College.
Lilia: There are few who can keep putting effort so earnestly like this. Sebek’s conviction is that powerful.
Silver: That’s right. I’m also learning a lot from how he never gives up.
Lilia: Indeed. This is Sebek’s strong point, and I hope it gets across to his classmates.
Lilia: …Well, this is also a lesson. We should not say anything unnecessary and just watch over him.
Silver: Yes.
Lilia: It is also more entertaining like this!
Silver: Father…

Coliseum - Field
Defense Magic Joint Class Third Class
Deuce: Starting today we’ll be wearing for class our magic-resistant Dorm Uniform… somehow it’s making me fired up.
Ace: Really? We’re wearing our Dorm Uniform everyday, doesn't make me feel any differen-
???: WHY!!!
Deuce: …I feel like something similar happened in our first joint class too…
Sebek: I cannot accept it!
Classmate A & B: We firmly oppose!
Ace: Oh man, Sebek’s team is quarreling again.
Deuce: But looks like this time Sebek’s teammates are complaining too.
Sebek: This time for the group presentation… “would take into account the team’s cooperation in order to pass”!?
Sebek: With this even if I clear the assignment by myself I would not pass…
Sebek: Group project is so annoying!
Classmate A: If we fail we aren;t allowed to participate in club activities for a whole week!? The captain would get so mad!
Classmate B: Same, we have a match coming and if I skip practice for such a reason, I don’t want to imagine what Kingscholar-senpai would do to me…
…..
Deuce: They became quiet all of a sudden.
Ace: They glare at each other in silence. The mood was the worst in the previous joint class too, i really don’t wanna get anywhere near there.
Sebek: …We have no choice. This time I would let you play a part too.
Classmate B: The way you said it!
Classmate A: In the first place, we ended up in this situation because you called us a burden and said you’ll do it alone!
Sebek: You also left everything to me so you can take it easy!
Classmate A & B: Ugh…
Sebek: I am also unwilling to accept the help of a human. But if it’s for the Young Lord I cannot be picky.
Sebek: In that regard, we are in the same boat right?
Classmate A: …It’s irritating, but Sebek is right. We have to work together.
Classmate B: I got it. But if we’re gonna work as a team, you should correct this self-important attitude of yours!
Sebek: Hmph!!! I guess I shall compromise!!!
Classmate B: It’s a lost cause
Classmate A: The presentation is tomorrow you know? Can we even pass with this messed team and without practice…?
