After hearing about their friend being on TV, the two girls looked at each other for only a moment before rushing over. After all, they only had one friend in common. They both let out a collective sigh of relief as they saw Emilia's face in the corner of the screen, looking hale and hearty. Combined with Emilia's abrupt cancellation of plans, it was no wonder that their thoughts were a little pessimistic when they heard about her being on TV. 'She's just on the side, nothing serious.' However,…

Crystal and Dixie put the topic of the contract behind them as they focused on getting their 'classes' over with. Clearly, neither of them were too enthusiastic about it, but both had their own reasons for being unable to avoid it. "Alright, that should be fine. You understand the difference between centerline radius and bend angle now, right?" Dixie looked disgusted as she slammed her notebook shut. "I think this is bullshit!" The heroine blinked in surprise. "What?" "I said, it's bullshit!…

The efficiency with which Mrs. Brown operated had to be commended. Before her daughter had even reached the Miller's restaurant for her 'tuitions', she already had her staff negotiating a contract with Mrs. Miller. And these generally cold-hearted negotiators who would squeeze out every single percentage of profit that they could from their opponents, were currently 'begging' to throw money away. Why? Because Mrs. Brown had said, the worse the deal was for them, the greater their bonus. Was there…

Emilia seemed to care for neither their confusion nor doubt, and continued her tirade nonchalantly. "It only took fifteen minutes. Oh, of course, I bought him, and will send the boy to his parents…" The lady officer finally seemed to realize what was going on, and her eyes were wide open. 'No way… did we walk into a huge trap? There's no way this little girl knows all of this, or could do any of what she's saying… it's probably… her father!' "Don't look so shocked, officer Morgan. It…

Officer Mark had already leaned back on the sofa, refusing to communicate with Emilia anymore. Meanwhile, officer Morgan seemed to be in quite a jovial mood now, as if already picturing the crashing of the White Deer's stock price when the market opened on Monday. "Your two minutes are almost over, you know. As for your question, the poor boys haven't been found since yesterday. But rest assured, we'll find them... and we'll make sure the culprits suffer very, very much for their crimes." Emilia…

The next day, Emilia did not go to the dojo for her training, nor did she head for Crystal's place for her tuitions. Dixie thought her grandfather would surely be angry, but the old man was very nonchalant to the whole thing when she informed him of the news. Truly, the masters treated their favored children differently. But Dixie could only complain in her heart and continue her own training with a pout. Princess even told her not to come by today, ahh! Now she even had to go to that Crystal…

Emilia's gaze was calm and calculating after she ended Cynthia's summoning. Although she wished to keep her company for longer, she now understood how important it was to preserve her skills for opportune moments. Now that she had obtained a clearer understanding of what the 'world will' was capable of, she knew that her previous conjectures regarding the usefulness of 'Follower Summoning' weren't correct. She had believed that since Cynthia did not have any skills except for controlling her system…

"Hmph. That girl was too reckless, moving too quickly and recklessly. There's enough fuel for us to set a fire." The silver haired boy almost jumped up in excitement. This was even better than his expectations! Even if that bitch had been ruined by his previous plans, she would only ever be a victim from the public perspective. People would pity her from that point, and although her fate wouldn't be good, her reputation would not suffer much. That kind of solution can offer him immediate…

Crystal waved her hand enthusiastically at the two girls as they left her house. Compared to when she came to receive them, her attitude seemed to have undergone a complete hundred and eighty. Her mother smiled at the girl, ruffling her hair once she saw that her friend's car had left. "M-Mom!" "Hehe… I'm just coddling my daughter a little. Is it so wrong?" The blonde pouted as she patted her messed up short blonde hair. "Hmph." "You seem happier, compared to the morning?" Crystal…

"That should be enough. Let's move on from mathematics now. Emilia is already pretty good, and Dixie's also doing fine. Make sure to practice the questions I marked out for the two of you separately, okay? Don't do it together." Emilia hesitated a little as she looked at the heroine putting away the mathematics textbook, but decided it would be better to just voice out her thoughts. After all, one of her purposes in approaching Crystal was to learn things faster. It was pointless to keep it to…
