âFan, fan clubâ¦â¦..?â
Ericaâs reply, far beyond my expectations, was quite embarrassing.
âOf course, not all, but only the sincere, dedicated members who worked hardest gathered here~â
âWhat?â
âAnd, and Iâm the chairman!â
Erica clenched her fists in her hands and shouted.
âIâm sorry if you felt bad, Yerine. Bu, but I wanted to let others know your charm, too!â
Erica kept spouting out her words in an emotional split voice, and me, Rachel, and Astra just stared blankly at her like that.
At that moment, I had only one thought in my head.
âWhat the hell is going on here?â
âI swear, when we pray, I only used photos taken with your permission, and I didnât do anything strange! Soâ¦â¦â
I heard Ericaâs voice in front of me with urgency.
âDonât hate meâ¦â
She came one step forward, almost crying, blushing her face and holding my cuffs tight with both of her hands.
There was one thing I wanted to say when I saw a clear liquid pooling in her sparkling pink eyes.
âIâll never hate you. Itâs okay, Erica.â
Of course, what Erica said was embarrassing, but I wasnât angry at her behaviour in the first place.
From my point of view, Erica didnât seem to have done anything wrong to me, but as soon as I saw her look on the verge of tears, I thought so. I think I can forgive everything, even though I have nothing to forgive.
âGodâ¦!â
To be honest, I think Iâm going to laugh because Iâm so happy.
My favourite heroine is the president of my fan club.
So itâs a double whammy, right?
I donât know what it is, but I think God rewarded me because I lived a good life.
Come to think of it, Iâve endured all those bad Ace verbal abuses so far, right? Even yesterday, I told him good things.
Eureka, that must be the cause.
For your information, I was insane with great joy at the time.
Now that I think about it, itâs a ridiculous conclusion, but at the time I had reached that conclusion.
âErica, Iâm fine, with the fan club or whatever.â
âRe, really?â
Erica asked with her eyes wide open like a baby rabbit.
âOf course, weâre friends!â
It was Rachel who put the brakes on me when I was a little out of my mind.
âOriginally, can you make a friendâs fan clubâ¦â¦?â
âItâs all right because itâs Erica!â
Astra, who was looking at me answering like that, began to rummage in her pocket with a âgasp.â
âYerine, you have a nosebleed!â
âOh, itâs okay, itâs okay.â
âItâs running on your clothes!â
Eventually, she forced a handkerchief into my hand, and I shut my nose with that handkerchief.
âBy the way, is Cassius a member of the fan club here?â
I asked Cassius, who was quietly watching the situation.
âOh, Iâd rather have a look at Yerine all alone, butââ
âIâm sorry, but I donât want to know your particular taste.â
âAnyway, Iâm here for information sharing.â
âBut for that, you can just ask meâ¦â¦â
Cassius then replied, scratching his head as if in trouble.
âWhat should I say, Iâm a little embarrassed to do that myself.â
ââ¦â¦.â
Iâd like to refute something, but I couldnât because I understood the feeling.
There is nothing more terrible than becoming a fanatic in front of the character.
âErica.â
âHuh?â
âThen, what is it, Cassius, a faithful member?â
âOh, yeah.â
ââ¦â¦yes, I suppose so.â
So, the expectation that the heroine and the male lead of the original story finally fell in love and that the story had regained its flow was shattered.
The heroine of the original is the president of my fan club, and the male lead is a dedicated member of the club.
To sum up, both of them were my fanatics.
âYes, well⦠It doesnât matter.â
Now that Iâve gotten used to this kind of situation, I feel like Iâm on the right track.
I donât know why they like me so much, but I donât think itâll be a big deal if I just leave it alone.
âI have no idea why.â
Then a voice came over Cassiusâs back.
âWell, look, Iâm sorry, butâ¦â¦â¦.â
The owner of the voice was a female student wearing glasses and braided yellow hair in pigtails.
âYe, Yerine, could you please sign for me? Iâm a real, very, very big fan!â
Still, the reaction was not familiar.
I didnât think anyone would be crazy about me, and I never thought Iâd be asked to sign an autograph.
âUh⦠Iâll do it for you. If you have paper and a pen,â
âArgh! Thank you so much!â
The girl reacted tremendously hotly, then took a pen and paper out of her pocket.
While signing the girl, Cassius and Erica glanced at the paper a little by little.
When I finished signing, the two crept up and began to look at me.
âWhat, whatâs wrong with both of you?â
Then Cassius opened his mouth first.
âYerine, you know.â
I could tell by the voice that sounded softer than usual. That he wants something.
âCanât you sign it for us, too? Please?â
ââ¦â¦â
To be honest, I felt a little sorry for the look of Astra and Rachel looking at the two, sincerely tired.
Still, what can I do?
While sighing, I had no choice but to answer.
âOkay. Bring the paper and the pen.â
***
Time went by so quickly.
After taking the midterm exam, the anniversary of the Academy foundation day was approaching.
âNow only a month is left until the academy foundation day!â
Astra talked excitedly, swinging her arms.
âIsnât there a month left? I canât wait.â
Rayl said, putting the book he had on his side on the desk.
âMe too, when it comes to Academia, then itâs the Academy foundation day.â
Rachel gave a word and smiled. She usually showed a smiley face, but I could tell for sure. That she is sincerely waiting for the day.
When you think of the opening anniversary of a Korean school, you wonât come up with a very exciting image. There is no way that students will be interested in the day their school was founded.
However, the Academyâs foundation day is at a different level.
It is the day of the biggest event in the Academy, and a huge banquet is held from late afternoon to night.
Full of all sorts of magic, glittering decorations, and top-notch food.
âItâs better to focus on something more productive than to be fascinated by events that are still a month away.â
Yeah, we wonât be able to develop our wits overnight.
âThereâs a lot we can do in a month. Thereâs something else in itââ
In the end, I couldnât stand it and stopped Eugeneâs words.
âHey, Astra, Rachel, and Rayl, they all will do well. You donât have to say that.â
Then Rachel burst into laughter.
âAh-ha, itâs all right, Yerine, itâs all right, Eugeneâs been kind of worried about us.â
âDonât say anything strange, Ale Club.â
Eugene retorted Rachelâs words. Eugeneâs face had turned slightly red.
âAnyway, that tsundereâ¦â¦â
Thatâs true, Eugene usually doesnât even say a word to anyone he really doesnât care about. He might have given advice from his own perspective.
âWhat were you talking about?â
âAh, Cassius.â
Cassius, who appeared with plenty of books, poked out his head and asked.
When I saw it, I put on a levitate spell and carried Cassiusâ book to my desk.
âOh, thank you, Yerine.â
âNo problem, ah and we were talking about the school anniversary.â
âOh, come to think of it, is there about a month left?â
Cassius said, tapping the object with his finger. His golden eyes shone through his dark hair, gazing at the audience.
Then Professor Frain opened the door and entered the classroom.
âCome on, everybody, have a seat.â
With the recent midterm exam over, Prof. Frainâs delivery was only about half as usual.
âWith this, Iâve delivered all the information and you can leave. Ah, Spade and Ace, please come to my room in 10 minutes. Thatâs all.â
As soon as Prof. Frainâs words were over, the students ran out of the classroom to spend a golden Friday evening.
âYerine, weâll wait at the cafeteria!â
âSee you later!â
Astra and Rachel waved out.
âYerine, would you like me to come with you to Professor Frainâs private room? Iâll wait until you finish talking.â
Cassius came up to me and told me.
âOh, well, I donât know how long itâs gonna takeâ¦â¦â¦ Why donât you eat with the kids instead of waiting for me? Iâll be there as soon as Iâm done.â
âWell, I donât really care. Iâd rather go with you.â
Then Eugene snapped in with a prickly voice.
âIt doesnât matter because sheâs coming with me anyway.â
When Cassius heard the voice, he replied, staring at him with his golden eyes.
âEugene, youâve never been with Yerine before. You always went separately.â
Eugene glanced at Cassius, who said so with his arm crossed.
âSo I just said Iâd come with her because sheâd be bored if she went alone. Is there a problem?â
Was it just my illusion that Cassiusâs eyes seemed as shiny as they turned into tigers?
