Lumilia looked at the letter that Jusmin was holding. She received it and looked at Jusmin and Fred. Both of them were looking on the ground not daring to look at her eyes.

"From father..." She muttered and she opened the letter. She spread the paper and read the words written in the paper.

"This..." After she finished reading it, the letter fell down on the ground. She couldn't believe what she had read just now. She opened her tremblings lips and said, "But I'm still trying my best here in the institute..."

"Something came up in the family and lord asked us to bring you back..." Fred said as he lowered his head. He knew that there's nothing he could do as he was just a mere butler of the Asvares Family.

"I understand..." Lumilia said as she bit her lower lips and clenched her fists tightly.

"I'm sorry, young miss. We couldn't help you." Jusmin apologized to Lumilia.

"It's okay. It's not your fault." Lumilia lifted up her head and forced out a smile at them.

...

The next day...

"The cultural festival will start next month, so you lot needed to prepare for your project," Bargan explained to his students the cultural festival.

This month the students were going to enjoy being a normal student. There's no battle that will happen and the institute forbid the duel this month. Still, they could learn spells or combat arts here. The institute only forbids battles, not learning or training.

They could still rent the training ground to train their skills.

Right now, the students were trying their best to increase their strength even a little, so this kind of announcement stunned them.

Bargan smiled at them and said, "You've all worked hard, so let's enjoy a normal life this month. No more fighting. I'll let you talk to decide what you'll do at the cultural festival."

He picked up the book on the table and exited the classroom. He gave time to his students to talk about things and will let them decide what will they do at the festival.

Everyone started to talk about the cultural festival. Everyone has different suggestions, so it was hard to decide what will they do.

Souta noticed that Lumilia was silent. It seems that she wasn't in the mood for this kind of thing. She's not in her usual self. Usually, she will be in charge of this kind of situation and she will handle this professionally like she always did.

"What's wrong with her?" Souta muttered as he rubbed his chin.

Alice who was sitting beside him glanced at him. She saw him rubbing his chin and knew that when he rubbed his chin he was thinking deeply about something or planning wicked things.

...

"Mila! Mila!"

Lumilia snapped out of her daze when she heard someone called her name. She looked up and saw that Nayo and Lynn were looking at him with concern in their face.

"What's wrong, Mila?" Lynn asked her with a worried expression.

"Nothing." Lumilia shook her head and didn't say anything more than that.

"If you say so..." Nayo said while looking at Lumilia. She was still bothered by the fact that Lumilia wasn't in her usual self. Since Lumilia didn't want to talk about it, she naturally has to respect her decision as her friend.

"If you have any problem you can always talk with us," Lynn said to Lumilia.

'It's useless to talk about this. No one can help me.' Lumilia thought as she bit her lower lips. If she's only stronger and managed to secure the top 10 ranker then the institute would help her, but now... It seems impossible.
