1. "Evie, look! There are so many other new students here!"
2. "Don't just look at the number of people here right now. Isidore academy is well-known for its high drop-out rate, and fewer than one in ten students can pass all the exams and graduate."
3. "Oh... So what happens to the students who drop out?"
4. "Don't worry about them. Having studied here is enough for most people to find a great job."
5. "Oh, I wanted to ask earlier... Where'd you get that, evie?"
6. "Oh, this? It's an enrollment preparation guide that ms. Brynn gave me. Do you want to take a look?"
7. "Pssssst, did you hear?..."
8. "Prince michel is returning from his studies abroad in the eastern kingdom!"
Laden…Laden…
1. "Oh my goodness! Really?"
2. "So you're saying... There's a chance we'll be attending the same classes as prince michel?"
3. "Studying at the same school as prince michel feels like a dream!"
4. "That's not all! A noble family's heir is due to return with his royal highness... The youngest person in history to earn the title of 'swordmaster'!"
5. "Oh my! It's lord aaron!"
1. "I've also heard that the heir to the leinster guild, lord garth, has also enrolled."
2. "Seriously?! This is huge!"
3. "We're so lucky to be admitted! Our school life this year is going to be so interesting!"
4. This truly is an otome game, what with all those classic character intros...
5. They're familiar faces, too.
6. "The matriculation ceremony is about to begin. Let's get there a bit early."
1. "..."
2. "What is it, elsa? You're looking pale..."
3. "Bad news, evie...!!"
4. "It says here that every student has to go through a test for their magical attributes in front of the entire incoming class during the ceremony!"
5. "Oh... Yeah, that's true. Is there anything wrong with that? Will that cause any problems?"
6. The aptitude tests are also a classic trope at this point.
8. "Oh... You mean... The curse?"
9. "Now you get it, evie..."
1. If a vague and dark tendril of magic reveals itself during the magic exam,
2. It would be difficult to explain myself under the scrutiny of all...
3. My mother did tell me that isidore differs somewhat from other schools in that it was founded by a faction of the church that worships the goddess.
4. If we were to reveal the power of the curse here, forget attending school, we'd probably be deemed heretics and arrested by the church straightaway...
5. "Come to think of it, how did you successfully pass the entrance exams in the first place, then?"
1. The imperial academy's entrance exams were mostly focused on combat magic, and they did not directly test for attributes. That's why I was able to easily pass them.
2. Plus, ms. Yuna was in charge of my transfer when I transferred schools. When she saw my previous transcripts, she just skipped the test and approved my enrollment application...
3. That tiny teacher really doesn't take things seriously...
4. "Oh, I almost forgot! We still have that stuff, right?"
1. "What stuff?"
2. "I've always kept one of these on me, just in case something like this happened."
3. "The cleansing potion prepared by sister dahlia!"
4. "I'll be just fine if I drink this before the test starts!"
5. "...wait!"
1. "Let me try it first. It'd be bad if there were any side effects."
2. "You're as cautious as always, evie."
3. "But don't worry! I drank this plenty of times while growing up."
4. Sister dahlia is probably the person elsa trusts most, other than myself...
5. But I still have my doubts about that riddle of a person... And I can't let down my guard.
6. "...!!!"
7. "Speaking of side effects, I guess the potion does make you a bit dizzy right after you drink it."
8. "...why didn't you say so earlier?!"
9. "It tastes cool and sweet... My body feels lighter after drinking it."
10. The refreshing sensation is spreading everywhere, as if my entire body has been rinsed from the inside out... Is this the "Cleansing" effect?
1. "This potion also works great for mild poisoning and mental disturbances."
2. Looks like I was overly cautious. This should be fine, right?
3. "Careful."
4. "..."
1. "...elsa? Are you okay?"
2. "I'm fine, just a little dizzy."
3. "Let's go, evie. There's not much time left."
