Izayoi and Roseate spent the night in the wilderness and then returned to the Anzelot Knight Academy the next day.

After leaving the dense forest, they hired a carriage and traveled for two days and one night before finally arriving back at the school!

"Izayoi! Our school is up ahead!" Because they wanted to introduce Izayoi to school, and because the two of them were only a few months apart in age (at least it appeared so), Roseate and Izayoi discussed it and decided to address each other by their names as classmates.

"Okay," Izayoi smiled. In between the hills, there was a simple stone gate hidden under lush tree shade. It appeared to be a very elegant school.

"Let's go in!" Roseate and Izayoi got off the carriage and walked towards the school.

The campus was built on a hill, filled with giant trees and stone pathways, giving it a grand feel.

"Let's rest in my dormitory for a bit."

"Okay."

Along the way, they encountered some students from the academy. Roseate greeted them as usual, but it seemed like the students were avoiding her.

"Roseate!" At that moment, a man wearing a gray robe, who appeared to be a teacher, rushed over and called out to Roseate.

"Teacher Markel?"

"Is everything okay?"

"I... Teacher, it's a long story."

"In any case, you need to come with me to see the Chairman immediately!" Markel said.

"I will go see my sister later! First, I will escort my friend back to my dormitory to rest!"

"Is it time for rest now? You come with me immediately!"

"Rozette does bear some responsibility for what happened!" Izayoi said. "But in the world of adventure, life and death are fated. At most, Rozette was just ignorant and arrogant! How can we blame all their deaths on Rozette? It was the monsters who killed them, and I already killed the Marsh Shadow! That should give them some closure!"

Dystin said, "You make a valid point, but our family is only a middle-tier family that relies on the favor of the noble houses. Now that we have offended the kingdom's powerful families, do you think they will handle this matter with neutrality? I'm afraid they will vent their anger on us! Furthermore, there are other forces behind them who may seize this opportunity to swallow our family! And all of this is caused by this ignorant and self-righteous little brat!"

"So what do you plan to do? Hand Rozette over?" Izayoi said.

"Hmph, if handing her over can solve the problem, then that would be fortunate! We don't know the specifics yet, but we heard that Marloff Marquis is furious! But how they will hold us accountable, we don't know. In any case, I will keep Rozette under my watch! We'll wait for the response from our family and the Marloff family!" Dystin said.

Izayoi shook her head helplessly. At first, she thought Rozette was detestable with her spoiled attitude, ignorance, arrogance, and causing the deaths of her teammates. But now she felt sorry for her.

"Alright! You can leave now! You little brat! You are not allowed to step foot outside the school! Otherwise, before the family deals with you, I'll personally hang you in the school square and whip you to death!" Dystin scolded.

Rozette was completely stunned. She did not expect her Senior Sister, who had always looked after her, to suddenly treat her so cruelly.

She stood up awkwardly, trembling all over.

"What are you standing there for? Get lost!" Dystin scolded.

Rozette came out with Izayoi. On the way, Rozette did not say a word but led Izayoi to her own dormitory as if in a trance.

As the vice president, she had a suite on the third floor all to herself!

This time, she brought Izayoi into the room.

Seeing her like this, Izayoi also shook her head. "Rozette, go take a bath and rest. Overthinking won't help."

Rozette did not speak; she simply entered the bathroom silently.
