Volume 13 Chapter 4: 

"Chelan, have you come to a decision?" Chelan was before Cadmus in his office. The princess nodded, "Mmhmm, I decided to drop out of the academy." 

"I see."

"Indeed, I have to own up for the mistake I have made." S-class had lost to F-class. He had to own up to that no matter what others said. It was an upset of the making. 

"I see, so you've decided to join Keith?" 

“No, I won’t be joining Keith either.” Chelan shook his head, 

“May I ask if you have a goal in mind now?" Cadmus was quite intrigued now. 

“No, I don’t.”

“Eh?”

“And that’s exactly why I’m going to travel around. If I don’t have a goal right now, then I will make one as I go!” That was something he had realized. He had been held up too long in one spot. He needed to show that he was more than capable of going out there and fending for himself. That was something he was going to show everyone.

“I see.” Cadmus grinned, “As the academy’s headmaster, I will not expel you.”

“Eh?”

“However, you’re on leave.” Leave. That meant something. It meant that the boy could return to the academy whenever he pleased. 

“Treat it as a gift for growing the way you want to. Return with something and prove that you’re the best.”

“...” Chelan clenched his fist tight as he nodded, “Understood! Headmaster!” 

...

“Do we have to go!” “I want to stay a little longer!” It was time for everyone to head home. The festival had ended, and there was nothing else to do. But some people didn’t want to go out and stay here like that. Keith scratched his head, 

What am I supposed to do about them? This was something really worrisome. But then again, there were people here to stop them.

“Will you guys quit it?” Othniel shook his head as he stared at them, “Bunch of sour grapes.” 

“You can only say that because you have won a variant!” The clothes glared at him. That was the only reason why this guy was acting like he was a winner! He had won the raffle the kid had created and got himself some variant meat. 

“That’s because you guys are not lucky at all.” Othniel shrugged like a winner as he pointed his nose to the sky. He was clearly quite happy about the food he obtained from it. 

“...” Keith shook his head as he patted the children’s heads, “Be safe, you three. I’ve also given you guys some goodies and candies.”

“Yay!” “Big brother is the best!”

“....” The others had nothing to say. So unfair! The difference in treatment was heaven and earth. Life was so unfair to the point that there were no words to describe it. But that was the last thing they saw was them being brought away by force! 

“Keith, we’ll be staying on your island for a little longer.” Yukiko and Long Yueying smiled.

“Hmm?” “We’re going to live with you guys now, so there’s no need to worry about anything.”

“...” Ah, so with Grandpa Cadmus. Keith smiled, “Okay!” 

“Thank you for having us.” The group talked with one another before Keith headed out since he was going to meet a few people. And the place he headed to was none other than Helen’s cafe.

“Senior Ange! Senior Sakura.” The two girls were already there, sipping coffee like it was on an ordinary day.

“To think the F-class was capable of something like that.”

“Indeed.”

Even after a few days, the results were something that was still talked about. That was because of how big this was. The lowest class took down the best class there was. Keith chuckled, “Didn’t you guys say this class was considered to be the golden generation? Of course, there would be upsets as well.” A golden generation encompassed all the classes. It would be normal to see something like that.

“But it was such a landslide.” 

“Indeed it was.” Keith grinned.

“There’s definitely going to be talks now.” 

…

And they were right because the professors were all discussing it right now.

“This year was pretty wacky.”

“Are you really going to say that?” Of course, it was the wackiest.

“F-class is really something.” “The way they took control of everything and made sure to win. No one could doubt the skills they had. But that was when Aidiun then added, “And I think you guys have to understand that there are some who don't deserve to be there.”

… 

When Keith returned home, he started to prepare the meals. And as he did so,

“Keith, you're going to be sent back to s-class.”
