Volume 7 Chapter 4: Midterms

"Did you forget anything?" Keith stared at Scarlet for a few seconds. She changed her clothes, but her body swayed back and forth. Scarlet looked around before nodding, "Mmhmm, I wore everything."

"Really?"

"Of course. Don't treat me like a child."

"The fact that you need someone to help you get dressed is a concern." To be fair, this is normal; it was a noble issue. In the Freed household, maids would help him get dressed. But Keith had put a stop to that, saying that he could do it himself. 

"Let's go down. Everyone is waiting for us."

"Okay." Scarlet nodded. Anyone could tell she was still sleepy. I guess she isn't a morning person. 

The two arrived at the dining room. 

"What took you guys so long?" Cadmus questioned, his voice filled with impatience. 

"Keith helped me get changed."

"What?!" Alfia jolted upwards; her head turned to Keith, demanding some answers.

"It's not what you think." Keith sat down in his seat, "Now, let's eat." Besides the glaring eyes coming from Alfia, the others dined in. 

"Scarlet, come and drink this." Keith placed a dark liquid in front of her. Scarlet sniffed the drink, "What is it?"

"Coffee. It'll help perk you up."

"Okay." Scarlet took a sip. Staring at how she did it, she looked like a little cat. She stuck out her tongue to lick it like a cat. That lasted for a few seconds before Scarlet took big sips.  

"What is this? My body feels so energetic!" Scarlet's body jolted forward as she couldn't believe it. 

"You like it?" Alfia didn't like coffee. 

"Mmhmm. It's aromatic." Despite the bitter taste, she preferred it. 

"It does that." Keith sipped on his coffee calmly. 

The group finished their meal and got dressed. 

"Let's go to class." It was time to go to class. The three great spirits wished them off as they exited the gate. As the group headed to their classes,  

"Why is the demon princess with them?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"Another person."

Students noticed them and started to murmur. 

"Hah," Keith sighed as he continued to walk to class. But that caused the others to chuckle. 

Gabriel noted, "This isn't going to stop soon."  

"I know." This was never going to end. A few weeks ago, there was a rumor going around saying he was a womanizer. Photos were taken to prove this point as well. Keith thought it would die down. And he was so wrong with that. 

And adding Scarlet and Leona doesn't help the situation. 

While Keith lamented over this situation, Scarlet tugged on Keith's clothes. Looking down, she mouthed, "Sorry about that."

It's fine. Keith mouthed. He wasn't going to be angry with this. 

The person who caused this rumor was none other than this demon girl right here. However, he forgave her. 

She had rushed over to his side to try and save him.

"Leader, I'm going to go now." "Same here." Arlo, Jack, Sarah, and Leona were going to separate from them. 

"See you guys later." Keith waved off to the others as the rest entered their classroom. When he did, Carolyn walked over, "Good morning."

"Morning. What have you been doing these last few days? You look tired." Keith noticed how Carolyn's expression was slightly dreadful. 

"Doing some things."

"Make sure to take care of your body." Keith could tell this girl was overworking herself.

"I don't want to hear that from you." 

"Hmm? What's that supposed to mean?!"

"Nothing." Carolyn took a deep sigh as she sat down. Before Keith could ask her, 

"Everyone, sit down. Today is going to be an important day." Aidiun entered the classroom with a tense expression. Everyone sat down. 

"Today, we're going to discuss the midterm exam."

"Midterm exam?" The students looked at one another. It had been that long? To think that the semester had passed by so quickly. 

"The midterm exams will be in a month and a half. It will be testing everything you have learned these last few months." 

"I see." Pretty standard. It was a midterm exam that everyone expected. 

"This is the overall rankings of students right now," Aidiun stated. With a snap of his fingers, a signboard formed in front of them. It had everyone in the class ranked. 

Huh? I'm eighth? Keith blinked. Keith was in eighth place. 

"I'm first?" Scarlet blinked as she stared at the signboard.

"Based on what you guys have done and the tests you had taken before classes, this is the rank we have created." Aidiun added, "The scores will change based on your midterm exam." 

"Understood!" The students nodded. After that, class started, and it was quite interesting as everyone was focused on their ranking. Once the class had ended, everyone began to discuss.

"What am I going to do?!" Herrick grabbed his head. Melor was the same as well. 

"Relax, you guys will do fine." 

"Fine?! Are you kidding me?! I'm in the middle of the pack!" Herrick was 20ish in the class. It seemed alright. But not with him.

"That's because you're a dumb lion." Alfia shook her head. 

"Shut it!"

"20th shouldn't be talking to the 4th place like that." Alfia had a victorious smirk as she stared at him. That caused Herrick's expression to drop. The disparity was uncanny.
