The Wiz
Chapter 25: Who?

"Camolina!"

Camoline looked back. He stops his footsteps, and lets Violetta and Lily approach him. The two women came over with very bright faces. Both of them like having happy news, to be able to put up such a look. Whereas before, the look on their faces was no brighter than the overcast sky outside the Academy. The reason for that was obvious, if both of them were sufficiently tormented by the special training that Barcus had given them.

"You guys seem happy" Camoline said as soon as the two got close enough. The two looked at each other, before nodding their heads vigorously.

"Sure! We both officially moved dormitories. You know, we managed to raise the level of strength!" lily exclaimed with pleasure. This grueling exercise for a month, finally paid off. Although every time he finished training his body will feel crumbling, but the results he got as good as this, making the swearing he had thrown first suddenly disappear.

"really. We are both at level 22" Violetta continued with a happy look. Camoline smiled at him. At the very least, the training that Barcus provided produced quite good results.

"That's very good" Camoline said. Lily nodded strongly. But his smile slowly faded. He puffed his left cheek.

"But not as good as you. You know, up 2 levels, that's good indeed. But your level rise is incredible. I'm nothing more than your ability" Lily said. Next to her, Violetta turned her head quickly. Breathing sounded from the woman's mouth.

"Yes.., my level rose by leaps and bounds after practice— this was like a real suicide fight —from Barcus back then," Camoline said. Lily nodded her head. He also of course had heard about the condition of Camoline after fighting with Londer at that time.

"That's it. Let's go to the dining room. My stomach is very anxious to fill" Camoline said. He pulled the two friends into the dining room, which contained enough students.

For each lunch, students are not at issue if they arrive late. As long as they come into the room at lunchtime, there will be no such punishment applied at the hour when breakfast or at dinner. Therefore, sometimes there are some students who choose to have lunch when the room is quite quiet.

"Ah, it's a pity that we still have different seats" Lily lamented. Camoline chuckled softly. Although it is unfortunate, but the rules are still the rules. They cannot occupy a table randomly. Other than breaking the rules, it would also cause other disciples to be annoyed. Well, the rules are frustrating indeed.

"Yes, no problem. As long as we get out of this room together again" Camoline said. After they walked towards their respective tables, Camoline immediately sat at the end of the edge of the long table. From his dorm, there were only 5 people who were eating his lunch. They are so focused on food, or maybe they are not interested in the presence of Camoline. That's not a problem for Camoline. Moreover, he did not know a single one of them.

Food for Camoline was coming soon, not long since Camoline had settled herself comfortably in that place. A working magic, carrying a tray full of food that was teleported by the cook in the Academy's special kitchen. The cooks will get a small warning if there is a student sitting in the chair for more than 1 minute. With a quick and clever movement, the cooks immediately served one serving of food for one tray. When finished, the trays will move on their own to the table of the disciples waiting for their food.

There was no difference between students from each other, or even based on the level of dormitory they came from. All students will still get the same food menu and within the specified delivery time. For cooks, discrimination against students is prohibited. If one of the cooks did it, intentionally or not, then inevitably he had to give up his position as an Academy cook. Because it is considered to have failed to maintain the commitment of the cooks who have been embraced for a long time.

Camoline immediately ate her food quietly. He really only focused his attention on the food in front of him. Fish soup and some french fries became his favorite menu during his time at this Academy. For now, he just wants to feel calm and relaxed while enjoying his favorite food.

"Hello —Camoline? It's good to see you from this close distance."

Slowly, Camoline's head lifted. He turned his head, found a blonde woman —who reminded him of Silver because their hair was very similar—, was displaying a sweet smile towards him. However, the smile and the friendly greeting made the frown on Camoline's forehead appear. Moreover, he saw the badge on the female uniform in front of him. It was red in color, meaning the female in front of him was a disciple who came from a dormitory one level above him.

Camoline had really never interacted with a single student from the dorm.

"You're not wrong?" camoline asked doubtfully. He really has to make sure. Because it could be, there was someone with a name similar to her. Nothing is impossible.

"Of course not. In the Academy, there was only one person by the name of Camoline. And that is you" said the woman in a still cheerful and bright atmosphere. Now, this woman reminded Camoline of Lily's figure. Although Camoline did not know, whether this woman would be as whiny as Lily or not.

The woman did not sit. He stood beside Camoline. Apparently, he still consciously remembered about the rules in this room.

"Then, what do you want?" ask Camoline without interest. Thanks to the arrival of this woman beside him, his appetite suddenly reduced drastically. He does not like to be disturbed when he eats. The food in front of him felt very bland.

The woman chuckled softly when getting such a cold response from Camoline. But he seems to have no objection. He still displayed a smile on his face that at first glance looked quite pale.

"My name is Liora Demeter. I want you to remember that. See you soon."

Camoline frowned. Unknowingly, his head moved following the departure of the woman who claimed to be named Liora. As soon as the woman completely disappeared from the room, Camoline realized something. The views of the people who were in the dorm with him, were fixed on him. They looked at Camoline with suspicious eyes, before whispering to each other with a friend next to her. Not just from the students in the blue dormitory. But from another disciple, who seemed to notice her interaction with the woman earlier.

Camoline couldn't help but be curious. Apparently, she was well known to many, except for her.

"I don't know, the Crown Princess is interested in that strange woman."

"It seems, the Crown Princess was bewitched so as to approach the woman."

Camoline's hands suddenly stiffened. Crown Princess. A rank that Camoline never expected at all. If so, does that mean that Liora is a descendant of Asdus?
