Chapter 1 -Knight Princess's proposal

Part 1

The next day after the party.

Since after another week will be the end of semester test, once the afternoon class has finish, many students hastily pack their bags and return home.

Ash is also scheduled to return home immediately for self-study. Before the exam, the student council’s activities will be temporary suspended, so he does not need to go to the office after school.

"Why is Eco absent today?" Raymond who had already packed his bag asks Ash.

"Err, the party last night had left a mark...... the word 'absent' shouldn’t be used to describe this situation, right? It is her who sneaks into the classroom and after that she will immediately fall asleep......"

"Haha, so cute. The reason she is willing to attend this totally boring class is just because she does not want to leave your side, don’t you think so?"

"How can that possible......"

Ash while smiling, took out the books in the locker that he had never use before and place them in his bags. Raymond hyperbole a sigh, but Ash didn’t understand his reasons for doing so.

That moment, someone is moving towards Ash.

"...... Ash, may I have a word with you?"

After he lifted his head, that person is actually Silvia.

Silvia rarely takes the initiative to speak to others in the classroom- not to mention the other party is a boy. But in the past few months they face many hardships together, and he feels that Silvia is easier to approach compared to her past. But in the classroom, she is still the majestic and stern 'Ice Blue Princess'.

"If the two of you want to talk alone, then the gooseberry will walk off silently."

Raymond left the classroom with a wry smile.

The others who are packing their bags and ready to go home also cast a curious sight.

"Uh...... How can I help you?"

Ash restlessly asked.

"That ...... In fact…… Father......Ordered...... Wants you to f-f-follow me ............"

“Follow you?"

"J-Just take it as I didn’t tell you anything!"

"Princess-sama!"

Ignoring Ash, Silvia swiftly ran away. In a blink of an eye, she is out of the classroom.

"...... What’s happening?"

Ash stunned, stood at his own place looking at the direction of the door that Silvia ran out from.

Part 2

After about two hours of studying in the academy’s library, Ash returns to the boys’ dormitory.

Although his is confidence with the practical test, but the written test is another story, so it is necessary to review carefully over again.

By the way, since Eco is in the dormitory, his reading efficiency will clearly drop. This is also the reason Ash prefer to use the library.

Dusk.

The scene outside the Apollo house has become red under the rays of sunlight . Just when Ash is walking toward the entrance-

- Toooooom!

"Wah!"

A strong gust together with a sound of impact hit Ash from behind. Ash stumble and fall face down, thus knock into the main door.

"What had happened......!"

Ash is rubbing his forehead while he turns his head around.

"Please excuse me! Are you Ash Blake-san? '"

A familiar lady is sitting on a Strada. The woman who seems to be in her early twenties and is cheerful. Her shoulder-length hair sways with the breeze. She is the one who appear in the students’ restaurant last night

"I am the first class palace messenger Orletta Blanc! I have a message for you!"

"For me ......?"

Ash looked confused, Orletta jumped off from her riding gear, then took out an envelope from her shoulder bag and handed it to Ash.

"May I ask who sent this letter?"

"That’s a secret."

Orletta give a playful laugh and ride on her Strada again, in a blink of an eye they flew up into the sky.
