"You two are here" said the man.
We looked back and it turned out it was Noa and there was Chloe too. They both wear casual clothes.
"Why didn't you say you wanted to go for a morning walk?" said Noa.
"I initially wanted to walk alone in the morning and then I met Charles when I came out of my room, so I took him along. I thought you and Chloe were still sleeping, so I didn't feel good knocking on your door" I said.
"Me too, when I came out I met Chloe, and then we were going to call you. Then when you want to go to your place, suddenly the ice princess comes out of her room and says that you have gone with Charles but she does not know where to go. Chloe and I went downstairs and met the girls at the front gate, and they said that you two went to the fountain in front of the lobby, and I finally found you," noa said.
"Then why are you guys going into the lobby ? don't you guys want to take a morning walk?" said Noa.
"So I ran away with Charles. And now I feel hungry because I haven't had breakfast. So I wanted to go to the cafeteria first to ask if I was still providing free food or not" I said.
"Owh is. Wait a minute, did you run off with Charles ? then how did it go?" asked Noa.
"I lost badly" said Charles.
"What's right ? brother lost?" asked Chloe.
Charles nodded.
"Why don't you guys run away when I'm around ? I want to see it" said Noa.
"There will also be a chance to see it. Better now we go to the cafeteria" I said.
"Well then, I happen to have not had breakfast, either" Noa said.
We went into the lobby to go to the cafeteria. In the lobby, we met with one of the supervisors there. I asked the supervisor if the cafeteria still provided free meals for new students. Then the supervisor said that free food is still provided for new students until later tonight because tomorrow the new students have officially started studying at the academy and free food in the cafeteria is only provided when just have lunch. After asking the supervisor, we headed to the cafeteria for breakfast.

After breakfast, we decided to take the morning walk back. We plan to tour the back area of the academy. We immediately left the cafeteria and headed to the lobby to get out. After exiting the lobby, we chose to turn right and pass through the students' dormitory to go to the shops and markets that are at the end of the road from the dormitory. We continued walking through the dormitory buildings. Every now and then we looked towards the dormitory building of the previous year. Logically, those occupying the building are our seniors. There were those who were chatting inside the building and outside the dormitory building, there were also those who were gathering at the gates of their respective dormitories. Some of them were looking at us. It seems they are aware of Charles and Chloe who are the princes and princesses of this kingdom. They also greeted Charles and Chloe.
"Even the seniors know who you are, as expected of famous people," Noa said.
"Hahaha, yes what can you do. I'm a Prince and Chloe is a princess. So it's no surprise that they know me" Charles said.
"By the way Charles, are there any of them you know ? or is there a son or daughter of a famous person among them?" I asked.
"If all I see is none of them I know. But if you ask whether or not there are children of famous people among seniors, I answer yes. There were at least many sons and daughters of the Marquess, Count or Viscount. And for the son and daughter of the Duke, there is the son of Duke San Minerva who if I'm not mistaken he is in the 3rd year of this year. And there is also the daughter of Duke San Quentine who is in the 2nd year, 1 year above us" said Charles.
"San Minerva and San Quentine ? Means plus daughter Irene and also Enzo, in this academy now have students from the sons and daughters of all the dukes?," I asked.
"Yes that's right. What's more, plus me and Chloe, means there's a child of 4 dukes and a queen in this kingdom" Charles said.
"There are so many children of important people who are in the academy, it is not surprising because this is the only academy in this kingdom. Of course, there are many important children who are here to learn" said Noa.
"But isn't that a good thing, you can compete with them" I said.
"You're right. Therefore, I will also fight so as not to lose to others, I must not lose as a child of the Queen. But in fact I even lost to Rid when the running match earlier," said Charles.
"Just relax, Charles, defeat will lead you to be better" I said.
"Haha you're right, I shouldn't reflect just on losing. Yes, let's stop this chat and go to see the store and the market" said Charles.
We also walked back to the shops and markets at the end of the street to the left of the dormitory. After a while of walking, we also saw many buildings lined up in front which was likely an academy shop. Many people were there who were likely to be students who were shopping. We went into the shopping complex and looked at what goods were being traded. There are clothes, utensils, foodstuffs such as meat and vegetables and others. There are also those who sell finished food. We stopped at the bakery.
"Do you want to buy that bread Rid ? I'll buy it if you want" said Charles.
"Noa how ? do you want?" asked Charles.
"Yes, if offered anyway, I might refuse" said Noa.
Noa and Charles bought the bread. When I looked towards Chloe. I saw him holding 2 loaves of bread in his hand while eating 1 loaf of bread.
"Since when did you buy that bread Chloe?" I asked.
"Just now" replied Chloe.
I didn't even see him buy that bread. He had breakfast and now he had two more loaves. I wanted to say that but it doesn't seem good to talk about it.
"Do you want to, Rid?," asked Chloe while thrusting another 1 loaf in her hand.
"No need" I said.
At that moment, I suddenly felt like I was being watched. This feeling was the same as I felt in the third exam before. But I prefer to remain calm and not act excessively in response to that.
After Charles and Noa had bought bread, we left the shopping complex and intended to go to the park behind the academy. When it came to the back of the academy, as the previous supervisor had said, there was a truly vast garden. In the park there are many flowers and plants, there is also a fountain and pond in the middle of the park.
"What a beauty," said Chloe.
Chloe looked fascinated by the park.
"It looks like this is going to be my favorite place during my time at this academy" Chloe said.
Not only Chloe, many other disciples were happy to be in this park. It is evident that there are many students who come to the park. Some just look at flowers or sit on a park bench while reading a book.
After a while in the park, we continued walking around and the next destination went to the academy lake which was behind the park. Behind the park there are 1 road that connects this park with the academy lake. Around this road there are large trees that can be said that this is the academy forest. We continued walking down that road and until we finally reached the end of the road. You can also see the San Fulgen Academy. This lake is so big. Many are fishing or just playing water in the lake.
"I'm not surprised if for example the students in this academy can feel at home even though they can't go home. There are a lot of good places in this academy" I said.
"You're right, Rid" said Charles.
"Let's go around, I also want to play water" said Chloe.
"If only I had a fishing rod, I would also like to fish" Noa said.
We also walked closer to the lake. However, I sensed that someone was watching me again here. Not only in the shopping complex and in the park, even in this lake I am being watched. Because I was curious about his purpose, I finally intended to find him.
"The three of you go around the lake first, I want to go back to the dorm first. I want to take something," I said.
"Do you want to be escorted, Rid?" said Noa.
"No, I'll be back soon" I said.
I walked back to the link between the park and the lake. It just so happened that no one else passed by. I went out of the way and entered the forest. I walked towards the person watching me. I finally got to where I was but no one was there.
"What do you need with me ? even to watch over me since then," I said even though there was no one.
After that, a woman with black hair appeared from behind a tree. The woman was not too old, it seemed to be 30 years old. And his face felt familiar.
"I didn't think you knew you were being watched. By the way, this is our first meeting. My name is Karina Stella. I am the Head of San Fulgen Akademiya Academy" the woman said.
