"So you two are here," said the person.
We looked back and it turned out to be Noa and Chloe too. They were both wearing casual clothes.
"Why didn't you tell me you wanted to take a morning walk?," said Noa.
"I originally wanted to take a morning walk alone then I met Charles when I came out of my room, so I invited him along. I thought you and Chloe were still sleeping, so I felt bad knocking on your door," I said.
"Me too, when I came out I met Chloe, then we intended to call you. Then when we wanted to go to your place, suddenly the 'Ice Princess' came out of her room and said that you had gone with Charles but she didn't know where she went. Chloe and I then went downstairs and met the girls at the front gate, then they said that you two went to the fountain in front of the lobby, and finally I was able to find you," said Noa.
"Then why did you want to go into the lobby? Didn't you want to take a morning walk?," said Noa.
"Earlier I just finished competing with Charles. And now I feel hungry because I haven't had breakfast. So I want to go to the cafeteria first to ask if they still provide free food or not," I said.
"Oh I see. Wait a minute, did you just finish competing with Charles? So what was the result?," asked Noa.
"I lost badly," said Charles.
"Really? You lost?," asked Chloe.
Charles nodded.
"Why didn't you guys compete when I was around? I wanted to see it," said Noa.
"There will be a chance to see it later. It's better if we go to the cafeteria now," I said.
"Okay then, I also haven't had breakfast," said Noa.
We went into the lobby to go to the cafeteria. In the lobby, we met one of the supervisors there. I asked the supervisor whether the cafeteria still provides free food for new students. Then the supervisor said that free food was still provided for new students until tonight because tomorrow the new students would officially start studying at the academy and free food in the canteen was only provided during lunch. After asking the supervisor, we immediately headed to the canteen for breakfast.

After breakfast, we intended to take another morning walk. We planned to go around the back area of ??the academy. We immediately left the canteen and headed to the lobby to exit. After exiting the lobby, we chose to turn right and pass the student dormitories to go to the shops and markets at the end of the road from the dormitory. We continued walking past the dormitory buildings. Every now and then we looked towards the dormitory building of the previous year. Logically, those who occupied the building were our seniors. Some of them were chatting inside and outside the dormitory building, some were gathering at the gates of their respective dormitories. Some of them looked at us. It seemed like they were aware of Charles and Chloe who were the prince and princess of this kingdom. They greeted Charles and Chloe.
"Even the seniors know who you are, as expected from famous person," said Noa.
"Hahaha, well it can't be helped. Besides I'm a Prince and Chloe is a princess. So it's not surprising that they know me," said Charles.
"By the way Charles, do you know any of them? Or are there any sons or daughters of famous people among them?," I asked.
"From what I see, I don't know any of them. But if you ask whether or not there are children of famous people among the seniors, I answer yes. At least there are many sons and daughters of Marquess, Count or Viscount. And for the sons and daughters of the Duke, there is the son of Duke San Minerva who if I'm not mistaken is in his 3rd year this year. And there is also the daughter of Duke San Quentine who is in her 2nd year, 1 year above us," said Charles.
This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
"San Minerva and San Quentine? That means plus Irene's daughter and also Enzo, this academy now has students from the sons and daughters of all the Dukes?," I asked.
"Yes, that's right. Moreover, adding me and Chloe, that means there are children of 4 Dukes and Queens in this kingdom," said Charles.
"There are so many children of important people in the academy, it's not surprising because this is the only academy in this kingdom. There must be many children of important people here to study," said Noa.
"But isn't that a good thing, you can compete with them," I said.
"You're right. Therefore, I will also fight so as not to lose to the others, I can't lose as the Queen's child. But in fact I lost to Rid during the running competition earlier," said Charles.
"Relax Charles, losing will lead you to be even better," I said.
"Haha you're right, I shouldn't brood just because I lost. Okay, let's stop this conversation and continue to go see the shops and markets," said Charles.
We walked back to the shops and markets at the end of the road on the left side of the dormitory. After walking for a while, we saw many buildings lined up in front which were probably the academy's shops. There were many people there who were probably students who were shopping. We entered the shopping complex and looked at what goods were being sold. There were clothes, equipment, food ingredients such as meat and vegetables and others. There were also those selling ready-made food. We stopped at a bakery.
"Do you want to buy that bread, Rid? I'll buy it if you want," said Charles.
"No, I already ate earlier," I said.
"How about Noa? do you want some?," Charles asked.
"Well, if I was offered it, how could I refuse," Noa said.
Noa and Charles bought the bread. When I turned to Chloe. I saw her holding 2 loaves of bread in her hand while eating 1 loaf of bread.
"Since when did you buy that bread, Chloe?," I asked.
"Just now," Chloe answered.
I didn't even see her buy the bread. Even though she had breakfast earlier and now she's eating two more loaves of bread. I wanted to say that but it didn't seem right to discuss it.
"Do you want some, Rid?," Chloe asked while offering another loaf of bread in her hand.
"No need," I said.
At that time, I suddenly felt like I was being watched. This feeling was the same as what I felt during the third exam before. But I preferred to stay calm and not overreact to it.
After Charles and Noa had bought the bread, we left the shopping complex and intended to go to the park behind the academy. When we arrived behind the academy, as the supervisor had said before, there was a really large park. In that park there are many flowers and plants, there is also a fountain and a pond in the middle of the park.
"Wow, it's beautiful," said Chloe.
Chloe seemed amazed by the park.
"It looks like this will be my favorite place while at this academy," said Chloe.
Not only Chloe, many other students enjoy being in this park. It is proven by the many students who come to the park. Some just look at the flowers or sit on the park bench while reading a book.
After a while in the park, we continued walking around and the next destination was to the academy lake which is behind the park. Behind the park there is 1 road that connects this park with the academy lake. Around this road there are large trees that can be said that this is the academy forest. We continued walking along the road and finally we arrived at the end of the road. And you can see the San Fulgen academy lake. This lake is so wide. Many are fishing or just playing in the water in the lake.
"I'm not surprised if the students at this academy can feel at home here even though they can't go home. Because there are many good places in this academy," I said.
"You're right, Rid," said Charles.
"Let's go around, I also want to play in the water," said Chloe.
"If only I had a fishing rod, I also want to fish," said Noa.
We walked closer to the lake. However, I felt like someone was watching me here. Not only in the shopping complex and in the park, even in this lake I was being watched. Because I was curious about his purpose, I finally intended to look for him.
"You three go around the lake first, I want to go back to the dorm first. I want to get something," I said.
"Do you want to be escorted, Rid?," said Noa.
"No need, I'll be back soon," I said.
I walked back to the connecting road between the park and the lake. It so happened that at that time no one else was passing by. I got off the road and went into the forest. I walked towards the person who was watching me. I finally arrived at where he was but there was no one there.
"What do you need with me? even to the point of watching me since earlier," I said even though there was no one there.
After that, a black-haired woman appeared from behind a tree. The woman was not too old, she seemed to be in her 30s. And her face felt familiar.
"I didn't expect you to know you were being watched. By the way, this is our first meeting. Let me introduce myself, my name is Karina Stella. I am the Principal of San Fulgen Akademiya," said the woman.
