"I should've taken that bet."

"Yeah, see. I was being nice and giving you two wishes just like that but you bastard rejected my goodwill. Serves you right."

I knew he would be higher ranked than me. Bastard didn't even think about it and rejected that good offer of mine. Hump, bastard.

"Hey… they…?"

"They are the ones from that stream, aren't they?"

"Woah. She looks prettier in person…"

"They are siblings, right? Which family are they from? And which nation? From their appearance, they seem to be either from west or north."

"They must be from some royal family for them to be so strong and attractive. Even the clothes they are wearing seem to be special. Tsk. Must be good having it all."

"Look at him! The hero! The one who stayed that monster! Kyaaaaaa~! He's so hot~!"

"Hey. Go and ask for their names or something. Getting acquainted with them from now would be the best."

"They have a strange aura around them. How should I say this… I want to go talk to them but my mind and body refuse to do so."

"They are scary… didn't you see how they killed that thing? Do you think it's possible for humans to defeat a creature like that? My legs gave up just from seeing that creature… it was horrifying man."

"Did you people see how she used those giant skills? They must be high-grade skills of higher levels. Do you think it's possible for someone to possess that kind of skills?"

"Hunh! I could have defeated that monster as well. It was just a black smoke monster that looked scary, that's all. They were just acting to get more attention."

"Kyaaaa~! Is that Lucifer? The Lucifer with the top score~? So pretty~. His sister is even prettier~!"

"Nah, they look pretty weak to me. Bet they just got lucky and got all those points with a special method. Anyone could have done it."

"Must be nice having a finneeeee sister like that, hun? I wonder if they sleep together as well."

"Hey, people. Did you know the point difference between second and third place is almost five times their points? And whoever this person on the third rank is, his score seems to be a joke compared to Lady Auriel."

"Ok, so, what is this? How is this even possible?"

"Haaaa… the world isn't a fair place. Some people are better than others, and that's the truth. The innate talents, abilities, and skills that one is born with will just get sharper and stronger as one nurtures it further. The normal people are restrained for nothing, hun?"

"H-hello mister Lucifer. Can I-"

"Brother Lucy! El!!!"

First of all, the students around us should just shut the fuck up. Why are they so loud in the first place?!

"El! I was worried!"

They all saw us fight that thing and now, there were many opinions spreading all around the place about us.

Some admired us, some scorned us, some looked down upon us for 'cheating' while some bastards were straight out cursing at us for how we were just lucky or how we cheated in the test or while saying how they were better than us. Fucking bastard.

"Sorry to have worried you, Nes. But we're fine, right? You saw how cool we were back there as well, no? How can there be anything wrong with us~?"

All these bitches and bastards and fuckers on one end, and my dear little Nes on the other. And the scale would still lean towards her.

She was the only one worried about us aside from Eva, and she was tearful as well, so, we knew she had been worried this whole time.

'She might have got an even better score if it wasn't for us. Haaaa… my poor Nessy."

"Nooo! You were definitely hurt! Especially brother Lucy! I saw you were bleeding all over back there before El helped you with that spell! How could you do that!"

"I-I was distracted. I will make sure to do better next time!"

"No! You're an idiot! You will forget again! And what do you mean next time?! You aren't doing anything like that again!"

She was worried about my Lucy as well… pity she doesn't have feelings for him. We three could have done some good stuff together otherwise.

"Ah, looks like you are in the middle of a scolding session. I will come back later."

"Yes! Come back later! Hump!"

Ras approached us but Nes chased him away as well and continued scolding Lucy, hehe. This was getting fun now.

"See you Ras~."

"Why are you so happy?! Brother Lucy was hurt because El wasn't paying attention! You are more at fault!"

Hmmm? What?

"You are just as guilty as him!"

She was shouting at me? Me?

"How can you leave him and eat snacks with Raz?! And where's that little cat?! Call him so that I can scold him as well!"

And she was angry at my little Raz as well? What the hell?

"Hmmm? Looks like you are busy Miss Agnes. And is that Master Lucifer and Lady Auriel?"

"Oh, looks like you three know each other already hunh?"

"Yes, we do! Can you two please give us a moment? I'm doing something important here!"

"…"

"Ah… yes."

Even Rex and Cathy came to us but she chased us away. Now this was some serious kind of worry she had right there.

Lux and Leon were about to approach us as well but they saw this scene and just took a 180-degree turn. Those smart ones knew it was better to talk later than get scolded by the sixth-ranked person before these many people.

'Lucky bastards!'

We were getting scolded and even the students around us emptied the place in the fear that she would hurt them if they interfered with her scolding. She looked visibly angry and the radiation of her anger was reaching the students standing quite a distance away from us as well. I can tell just from their faces how difficult it must be for them just to look at us getting scolded by this cute-looking friend of ours.

"Alright, everyone! On your places!"

It seemed like she was going to scold us for the entire day, but thankfully, the peacock tail instructor on the strange a distance away from us spoke up and when we looked there, he, the three cat instructors who were infamous all throughout the three continents as well as the major professors of the academy including the headmaster and vice headmaster had already taken Thai's seats over there.

"Congratulations to all the students who have passed the other tests! We will proceed with the familiar summonings immediately so those whose names are called, please step before the ends of the summoning circles!"

It was starting now, which meant Nes will have to finish her scolding here for the time being.

"Don't even think that this is over! We will continue this later! Hump!"

And then, she stomped away towards Rex and Cathy, finally.

"That was harsh."

"Harsher than I thought it would be, yes."

"Haaaaa… anyway. Let's go."

I knew she would continue this scolding, she was scary when she was like this, woooo.

'I get chills just thinking about that adorable angry face of hers. This bastard does as well.'

We didn't have anyone who would scold us like this before but after meeting Nes and having her with us these past few weeks, we have been scolded more times than Eva had ever scolded us in these past few years.

And, her scolding is adorable so it is difficult to focus on the serious things she says with that cute expression of hers. She's adorable, but when she is scolding us like this… she's more dangerous, really.

[ "Alright. Let's get our familiars, ma'am." ]

[ "I will get a stronger familiar than you~." ]

[ "Yeah, sure. I wish you do as well." ]

Hmmm? This bastard. He should have said the opposite but he was wishing that I would get a better familiar than him. How dare this bastard! What if his familiar is too weak to even protect him when he needs it?! What will he do then?!

-Smack!

"Ouch! That hurt!"

"Get a better familiar than me then! Hump!"

"What the hell?"

He was a little weaker than me for now even though he had become a swordmaster. He still didn't have his own exclusive title and the reward calculations from the last time were taking way too long that it made me curious just what kind of data the central brain was processing for it to take so long.

"Alright! Auriel, Lucifer, Max with red hair, Linia, Jakemartin, and Paulo. Step onto the summoning circle!"

We were both one of the first students to do the summonings and before us was the summoning circle connected to all of the Worldline areas. Something we don't see in places other than this academy.

It was an important medium to summon the familiar that matched our soul frequencies and a summoning crystal was used during the summoning so, the process was quickened even further.

What got summoned was random when we were playing the game as the players but, now that we were natives with a soul of some other place, I was extremely curious to see just what kind of creature there was that their soul was able to resonate with mine.

'It can be anything, but, it won't be some random monster that depended on our luck. No. We will summon our actual soulmates, the beings we are destined to be with forever.'

Familiars are special and one of the key elements of many of our plans so… both of us were looking forward to this moment for a long time.

However…

"Hmmm? What's happening."

"Headmaster?"

"H-hey!"

"Headmaster! What is…!"

Neither of us had ever thought that instead of summoning something, summoning our familiars, the two of us would get transported to some totally different places where our familiars resided. We never even knew it was possible to change existential plains without the 'keys' or the 'doors'.

But, the way this summoning circle glowed brightly as soon as it was activated and we got transported to separate unique plains… would become an incident that the students and the world would talk about for the days to come.

'And, it would become the starting lines of many of the [[( Epics )]] we are going to write in the future…'

It would state how we changed plains of existence with a summoning circle, how we met creatures that were imprisoned by the worlds themselves, how we bonded with familiars that were one of their kind, and how the two ▼▼▼ who conquered [[( Fate )]] were born.

It would be how people who don't know what actually had happened would know these events though…

'For all of us who journey this path together, nothing will be shrouded in mystery.'

For most parts, at least. Hopefully.

Hehe.
