"Okay, a harmless area without anything scary. Hmm... She is indeed from our academy. Uhh, I can't see the crest on her upper arm, she's too far and dark." Evelyn focused her eyes slightly as if trying to see through the dark, but it didn't work.

"It's a flower with nine white petals, she is our senior in the ninth year." Elysia informed kindly.

She was using her advanced perception to find out more, and at the same time, she had a strange feeling towards the girl at the end of the dark alley.

It was as if she had seen the girl before, but she couldn't remember where and when it happened, and Elena couldn't be more clueless than her.

Evelyn and Ella looked straight at Elysia in astonishment. What a great vision to see that far in the dark, to the dark alley.

"Let's go over there and greet her to find out?" Ella made a suggestion. She was a little worried about the senior girl.

However, the senior girl they were talking about felt as if she was being watched by someone. She immediately turned around with a panicked mind and heart. Although she finally let out a sigh of relief because the only ones who caught her were only three young girls who were still at the Apprentice level.

She smiled derisively at herself as she lacked vigilance and caution. She shook her head slightly then walked towards the three girls who seemed quite worried about her, with the hope the three girls didn't know anything and didn't see anything noteworthy.

"I don't think that's necessary, Ella. She's the one coming over to us." Elysia refuted Ella's suggestion, then she tried to see the status of the girl who was walking over.

[| Lv. 61 | Intermediate Spearmage | Lucie Sutton | Female (24) | HP: 31,200 / 31,200 | EP: 65,200 / 67,000 |]

As expected of a senior in her ninth year, she had reached such a high level even though she was only 24 years old. Even Raylee as the eighth-year student with platinum grade talent still a bit far below her. Even though he was only one year different from this senior.

A girl in a white academy uniform with a crest of nine white petals on her upper arm approached them with definite steps.

When she got to the outside of the alley with better lighting, it could be seen that she was a girl with flaxen hair with a crown braid hairstyle. Her pretty face looked a little serious but also a little ambitious.

The senior girl stopped right in front of the three girls. Her dark purple eyes stared at the young girls, and they stared back at her curiously as if they had something to ask. She narrowed her eyes a little when she saw Ella, but it was only a moment until she returned to her usual self.

"Good evening, may I know what you are doing here?" The senior girl did not let the three girls ask or say any other words. She greeted them right away.

"Um, yes, good evening to you too, seniors. The three of us are your juniors at the Deterry Academy of Magic. We were just walking towards the Holy Cathedral, and we stopped because you were standing alone at the end of that dark alley..."

"May we know what you were doing there, senior? It's not good for a girl to be out there alone. Are you okay? You're not being bullied, right?" Elysia quickly took Evelyn's long sentence straight to the point she was worried about.

What she saw a moment ago was really a girl doing nothing at the end of a dark alley. Even though it was a bit creepy considering the horror film she had watched in the past, she was more worried because the senior girl might be fooled by her friends.

"Ahh, you are worried about me? Thanks for that. However, what did I do there, until you can draw conclusions with such worry, beautiful girl?" The senior girl rested her cheek on the palm of her hand with a smile. She needed to know what they saw.

Evelyn looked at Elysia, and Ella did the same as if they were asking Elysia to answer that.

"Umm, well... What we saw was you were standing there doing nothing as if waiting for someone or something. So, I guess you were being bullied by someone... Please forgive me if my estimation is wrong." Elysia carefully answered while stroking the white cat in her arms.

That answer seemed to give the senior girl a sense of relief. It was something she wanted to hear. This time her smile changed from a smile of politeness to a happy smile. These three girls didn't see anything significant.

She was indeed waiting for someone on some hidden matter right after the first plan was completed. Fortunately, 'it' disappeared before the three eyewitnesses could see anything problematic.

If they knew of things they shouldn't, she didn't know what to do with these three girls. Not to mention, one of them was Pope's granddaughter. Silencing them was the last thing that would cross her mind.

"Ahaha... It's okay, don't apologize. There are very few people who want to convey their concerns to others. Most of them just stay quiet and do nothing." The senior girl waved her hand casually. This was no longer a matter that created a dilemma for her.

"Oh, how rude of me. I haven't introduced myself, my name is Lucie Sutton, so you are my cute little juniors, nice to meet you..." Lucie greeted in courtesy.

"En, nice to meet you, Senior Lucie. I, Elysia Avery. So, what are you doing in such a dark place alone? Need help?"

"As you might expect, I'm waiting for someone... Err, I'm not being bullied, okay? I'm not a weak girl. But, I can't explain any more than that to you. Ah! Anyway, it's getting dark now, you better hurry home. Like you say, good girls don't go out at night. See you next time, my cute little juniors~" Lucie evaded Elysia's question and went straight to excused herself. She waved her hand, then walked away.

Elysia could only return the parting hand waving. She didn't really want to know either, only suspicious and worried about bad things happen to the senior girl.

"What's with that senior? In which part of us can be called 'little'? She is only a little taller than Ella, but it's not right to call us little, humph!" Evelyn gave a disgruntled grunt as she folded her arms.

"Umm, Eve, even though I'm the tallest of the three of us, we're only about 2 to 5 centimeters apart... She calls us small not because of our bodies, but because she's older than us." Ella slightly shook her head. Sometimes Evelyn could be unreasonable in her thoughts.

'Nee, Ely, do you think that senior girl is a secret agent of some secret organization doing secret exchanges in a dark alley?' Elena assumed with hesitation as she looked at the back of the girl who was walking away.

'Um, there are too many secrets... But, I can remember vaguely, I've seen her, but I don't know where and when it happened... Uuu, my unreliable brain can't remember people well...' Elysia had a different opinion.

'Well, since you can't remember her, that means it's not important, I don't remember we ever meeting that senior girl either.' Elena shrugged her shoulders. She thought this was their first meeting with that senior girl.

Since neither of them could remember that, Elysia and Elena could only put the matter aside.

Elysia, Evelyn, and Ella continued their journey towards the Holy Cathedral, chatting happily throughout the short trip.

"Nee, after I measured, Ely is the shortest of the three of us, and she is the youngest too. So, did she become a little sister?" Evelyn made a rather odd statement while comparing her height to Elysia. Even though their body height was pretty much the same.

"Huh, me? Why the little sister? Um, are we still having the 'little thingy' conversation earlier?" Elysia felt astonished. She became the subject in that statement.

"Hehe, you said you just turned 16 last week, right? So, my statement is correct, you are the little sister." Evelyn giggled with amusement.

"Um, okay, I'm the shortest and the youngest. If so, will that make you and Ella big sisters?"

"That sounds good, every Priest will usually be called by a prefix before their name as Sister, Brother, Priest, or their title in the Holy Church. You two may call me Sister Ella." Ella nodded in satisfaction.

She did not even explain Sister and Brother as prefix names for Holy Church people only used for people who were close to each other. It wasn't necessary because she wanted to be close to these two innocent, unique, and talented girls as her real friends.

"Woah, that's amazing. Aren't I going to get lots of Sisters and Brothers when I become a Priest? Um, well, too much is bothersome..." Evelyn imagined what if she had so many siblings but only in names that addressed each other like that.

If there were many people she hardly knew called her Sister Evelyn, it would be uncomfortable in her heart. No one should address her intimately if she didn't know the other party.
