In truth, the principal’s proclamation was simple.
It was to have Cien Mirmode go through a ‘test’ to see if he was suitable to become a child of the Mirmode family.
It was a faster development than I had anticipated. I was startled internally but composed myself.
‘I had anticipated this. Don’t be too surprised.’
With my beansized eyes blinking, I answered powerfully.
“Got it!”
“Huh?”
“I’ll go through the test!”
The assassins looked at me with dumbfounded expressions.
I lifted my chin in a selfconfident manner.
They had already decided to test me. Regardless of any excuses, they intended to have me undergo the test, planning to suppress my spirit when my father was not around.
“To catch a tiger, you must enter the tiger’s den. Don’t you even know that?”
The maids applauded my words automatically.
“Oh, truly insightful!”
“Indeed, our muscle landlord.”
The assassins sent by the principal were still lying on the floor, rolling their eyes with awkward expressions.
“Ah, also.”
“Yes?”
“Take care of those guys!”
Carry on!
At my tough words, the older maids beat up the masked men some more and chased them out. Of course, I also instructed them to dig a pit behind with a shovel, so they might bury them alive in a day or two.
‘Maids, is it okay to be so ruthless.’
……I was skeptical if there was any faith in them.
We were just people without power, marginalized from the northern towers. As this was the Mirmode worldview where the strong survived, being ruthless without backup would be dangerous.
‘That’s not the important thing. I have to face the principal first.’
I put a few essentials into the rabbitshaped bag that my father had bought for me.
Me, with a bag slung on my shoulder, Cien Mirmode!
I had also saved the mirror artifact in advance to tease the maid sisters. This lowgrade artifact would not be of much help, but……
Anyway, I was fully prepared.
Finally, I entered the academy with vigor.
As I entered the large room, a grimacing Educational Manager, Miss Lilmi, and an old man with white hair were sitting. I stared at Lilmi with my fishlike eyes.
I didn’t expect her to be so cautious about a kid like me.
The idea of showing her a hot taste bubbled up from my stomach.
“You’re here.”
“Hello!”
After bowing to greet, I stood in front of them.
As soon as the door was completely closed, he asked, flashing his eyes like a real villain.
“Did you say goodbye to your arrogant exiled father?”
At the mention of an arrogant exiled father, I clenched my fist tight like a wellcut potato.
How dare he call our dad an arrogant exiled father?!
If our innocent dad had heard that, he would have been shocked by the vile expression.
It was good that I was there to hear it. My heart was hardened and cold, ready to take revenge.
My heart froze like cold corn ice cream and I opened my mouth.
“My dad is not an exiled one. He told me it’s a false accusation.”
At the mention of the Duchess, the principal’s face twisted.
“……What a brave kid. So, did you order to kill all my men?”
That’s a bit unfair.
‘No, the maids beat up the assassins, not me…….’
“I can’t believe you killed all the assassins I sent.”
He grumbled.
There seemed to be a deep misunderstanding.
However, I had no intention of correcting his misconception.
‘It’s even annoying to clear up the misunderstanding now.’
Seeing me silent and only biting my lips, he casually put the magic stone he was holding on the desk and said arrogantly.
“I’m planning to give you the ‘Illusion Maze’ test.”
“What’s that?”
As expected, it was the ‘Illusion Maze’.
Although I asked as if I didn’t know, thanks to Leonhardt, I already knew.
The principal chuckled as he looked at me.
“You’re foolish.”
“Because I’m the daughter of the exiled. I’m just a country bumpkin.”
The Education Manager Lilmi, who was sitting next to him, joined in. He was flattering continuously for promotion, his eyes sparkling.
“‘Everything is proceeding as Leonhardt and I predicted. They’re probably trying to kill me. Everyone here is about killing and getting killed.”
I stared at him, feigning ignorance.
“Simply put, it’s a test to escape the maze.”
“A maze? How do I escape?”
“Stand on this glass panel. You have to find the way out yourself. You sure talk a lot, kid.”
A cold gaze, hoping to scare me.
Seeing the headmaster, a teacher who was unfriendly to the extreme, I opened my mouth.
“Do I have to do it even if I don’t want to, Sieni?”
“Yes.”
“……Okay, then.”
As if waiting for Lilm, he handed me the magic stone.
A warm magic stone was placed on my hand.
“You kids are stupid, not even knowing you should walk in on all fours.”
I did not respond to his words.
He sneered, the corner of his mouth curling up in disdain.
At the sight of his assured victory, Sien lowered his head and smiled contentedly.
Without being caught, so that the corners of his mouth wouldn’t rise too much!
It’s a matter of seeing whether it’s long or short, you shouldn’t jump the gun like that.

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
