Rhythmic footsteps resounded in the academy hallway. Lyle walked while following the swaying ponytail.
"Young master, you know I heard so much about young master from my father. He said that you were really beautiful and that you were super strong~"
"............"
"I, I, to be frank, am feeling nervous. No, I'm fully aware that this is the moment where one could retort, 'is that what you should be saying while talking to me?', but! But you know! As a daughter of the duke house, meeting you is, as expected, quite a nerve-wrecking thing. Erm, so ... ..."
Even as the voice of the girl went on, Lyle paid no heed to it and looked up at the ceiling.
The ceiling was covered in brown and silver tiles.
Flower petals and leaves that came through the window occasionally danced in the air.
Wearing his usual black clothes with a stand-up collar, with his hands tucked into his pockets, Lyle was walking silently.
Marcia was apparently really nervous, had her hands pressed against her chest as she spoke.
"Erm, so, even though I think it might also be because of my own failings, ahm, I'll do my best so please take good care ... ..."
But, cutting her off, Lyle said.
"Ahh, Marcia."
"Y-Yes, what is it, Young master!"
"Your clamoring has been rather annoying for a while."
"Eeeehhhhhh!?"
Marcia raised her hands to her shocked face, and further added, "I-I beg your pardon!"
Clearly downhearted, Marcia shuffled to the back.
Lyle didn't care at all and continued to walk towards the classroom.
---------------------
The noble girls were refined and high class ojousamas just as he had heard of. Their chatter before classes started was just as elegant. Without loud voices, they put their hands up to their mouths and laughed sophisticatedly.
However,
---- As if something just exploded inside the classroom ... ...
It become very quiet the second Lyle followed by Marcia entered through the classroom door.
It was so quiet that you can even hear their breathing which had became faster than normal.
They had really drawn a fair amount of attention when they were walking down the Academy hallway, but that was when the class had started so the people walking in the hallway was just few, so there hadn’t been a significant number of people in there and they only bore with a few whispers.
However, in this classroom were over 30 people—— with most of them were girls of course. The gazes and pressure in the hallway was nothing compared to this, it was so much that it almost made anyone on his position turn around and run.
But Lyle just didn't care about them ... ...
He walked passed some students who was lowering their heads as if their scared of raising it even a little bit and went to the bottom-most desk and sat himself at the window seat.
When he thought about how everyone in the classroom was staring at him, he couldn’t help but to be overly self-conscious of himself.
But that's none of his business ... ... = =
The girls’ gazes were piercing him. With his superhuman hearing, he can hear their voices even if they lowered it to the utmost limit. They carried various thoughts from favorable comments, simple questions, up to subtle hate; especially the male group. Although they didn't dare to look at him much less declare it.
With his arrival, the classroom was turned into a mourning session. No one dared to speak much less laugh. They were all scared to emit even a small sound as they could only do was lowered their heads and stole some glances every now and then ... ...
In this suffocating atmosphere, only the sound of the wind, birds chirping and rustling dry leaves gently caressed his ears.
This was what people would call the “voice of nature,” wasn’t it?
Truly soothing ... ... = =
Without anything to do, Lyle took out a book, titled: 'The Snow Princess', and was engrossed at it. He forgot about his surroundings and was only reading there ... ... silently.
It was a famous story, or rather a well-known legend in the whole continent. A story about a Snow Princess who was beautiful, kind and cheerful; loved by her people. However, she suddenly got sick, encased by a snow coffin and slept for eternity.

Lyle thought it had the same story back in earth but this one ended in sadness and tragedy.
A man who was said to be a secret lover of a princess set out to find a cure but then never came back. The kingdom was then covered by cold and snow until this very day ...
The Snow Princess was left inside the castle, sleeping for eternity ... ...
... ... Since then, no one had managed to once again enter the kingdom much less saw the Snow Princess again. It was already a few million years since that time but they know that the Snow Princess was still alive and living until now.
It was just; she was encased in an ice coffin and was in a never-ending sleep.
Lyle was just innocently and earnestly reading, and did not realize at all of the female students inside the classroom was looking at him with wide open eyes.
--- At this moment, Lyle didn't notice a lone tear that fell from his eyes ... ...
This expression completely captured the heart of all the female students in the classroom that they suddenly didn't know what to do ... ...
Luckily Lyle had not looked around as all his hearts attentions were focused on the book.
Even though some of the female students as well as the male group thought it might be fake tears, they did not have any evidence that they could find and just decided to keep silent.
When Lyle was going to flip the next page, the classroom door suddenly opened and the teacher entered.
--- Of course, it was teacher Mirin ...
Mirin truly did have a magnificent body.
In her jet black clothes two big bulges were rising, twice as big as Sasha.
Furthermore, there was a slit in the cloth around the breast area from which one could peek at her cleavage.
I totally don’t get why someone would put a gap in that place …
Isn't that too ... ... sexy @-@
I wonder whether I should call someone who deliberately wears something like that incredible or not …
Lyle was in awe in front of that unusual design.
Then—— Teacher Mirin's gaze turned into his direction. Her eyes suddenly opened widely along with her mouth which was almost turned into an O ...
"Good Moring Teacher Mirin ... How are you ?" Lyle greeted as he stood up and bowed politely.
Teacher Mirin seemed to regain her senses when she heard him.
“P-Prince Lyle ... you came?!”
To her question, Lyle only smiled wryly. "Yes, I am still after all ... a student. It's my obligation to come ... "
"I-Is that so ... T-Then, enjoy the class ..."
"I will do so, thank you~"
Seeing that Lyle seemed not here to cause some trouble or revenge, Teacher Mirin finally sighed in relief. But at that moment---
"Lyle !!!"
A voice came from the classroom entrance. Everyone turned, wondering who it was, and saw a beautiful girl with fox ears standing in the hall. It was of course, the beast Princess; Princess Feme Foxtail.
"Lyle, I heard from Sasha that you came in the school!?" She asked in a loud voice.
"Yeah, as you can see I'm here~"
"Why?! Don't you know---"
"Ahem ... Princess Feme we will start the class. Can you tone down your voice and sit ?"
Before, she could finish her words; Teacher Mirin stopped and warned her.
"But teacher---"
"Enough, Feme ... I came here on my own accord and I'm still a student in the first place. So coming isn't really a big deal ... "
For a short time, Feme, who had thrown a tantrum seconds ago, was motionless, then she surveyed the faces of the classmates around her.
… After a short time, she got arrived at the realization that she was being over the top, nod in a totally awkward and slow manner, and cleared her throat with a cough. She then walked towards her designated sit.
“Well then, we’ll begin the lesson ---”
With that, Mirin started the class ...
"---However, before that. Prince Lyle, please accept my apology in behalf of the class for last time."
"Its fine teach, it's all in the past now ... let bygones be bygones."
"Truly, let bygones be bygones... what a wonderful saying. Thank you, Prince Lyle. Now then ---"
