The plants on both sides were bathed in morning mist and sunshine, exuding a fragrant scent. There were many flowers along the roadside that Lanci couldn't name, some vibrant, some elegant, some strangely shaped.

Accompanied by the songs of birds, the buzzing of bees, and the babbling of water, they gradually entered a soft grassland filled with flowers from the end of the road. All the buildings in this area were built within the gardens.

"Is this where your student council is? Hyperion mentioned it to me."

Sigrid said curiously.

They walked to the building located at the edge of the Magic Engineering College, with statues and reliefs embedded on its red brick exterior wall, one of the landmarks of the campus—the Old Literature Building of the Magic Engineering College.

She heard from Hyperion that this centuries-old building used to be a workshop where magic artisans gave free rein to their imagination. It was renovated and maintained decades ago, now used to provide technical services to students from other departments who need help from the Magic Engineering College, also where Hyperion and Lanci often came.

The first floor is the Public Magic Work Technology Service Center, the second floor is the New Magic Work Technology Creative Workshop owned by Professor Bolao, a leading researcher at the Magic Engineering College, where Lanci and Tata often come. The third floor is the office of the Student Management Committee.

"Yes, now it's mainly the president and the secretary who work here. The president is very nice and reliable, but the secretary... I always feel she's like a fangirl, every time I meet her, it's like meeting a celebrity she admires, and she even comes over with my photo asking me to sign it."

Whenever Lanci thinks of everyone in the student council, the only one that stands out is Secretary Lavisseir, who is also the most lively reporter at the Hutton Daily.

Her reports never seem to have any problems, but they feel overly vigorous.

Dean Loren has his current reputation, but she's not entirely clean.

"Oh, if I were in the student council earlier, anyone who dared to provoke Hugh would meet their end."

Sigrid also knew well about Hyperion's situation at Ichrite during the time after Migaya went missing.

"Come on, if you two don't fight over a man, it'll be considered a success, meow."

Cat Boss imagined Sikder with Fifth-order wounds running into Fifth-order Hyperion at Herram, and they almost fought.

If anything went slightly wrong, it would have to consider how to help Teacher Da Lan cook a sofa to make him eat a little better.

"That's what they call fighting leads to acquaintance. I really admired her at that time!"

Sigrid spoke to the Little Black Cat.

"Meow..."

Cat Boss could only think that there would never be sisters again like Sigrid and Hyperion.

They arrived in front of the Old Literature Building but found the door still closed.

There was no trace of students around either, after all, it was already a school break.

"Oh dear, came too early... forgot that during the winter student holiday, the service center of the Magic Engineering College starts work at ten in the morning and closes at four in the afternoon, neither a minute early nor a second late."

Lanci regretfully said.

"It's alright, I'm used to it. Life's pace at Ichrite is much slower than at Herram."

Sigrid was happy to accompany Lanci and wait, enjoying the leisure.

Many shops in Ichrite close by five, and they won't earn money even when they're off work, not to mention the school's service department.

They exchanged a smile and began chatting on the lawn while waiting for the staff of the Magic Engineering College to start work.

"Actually, it's not bad just to enjoy the scenery too, since we're on holiday anyway..."

Sigrid looked up, admiring this art-like ancient building in front, feeling the floral scent from the garden, the grass scent, the soil breath, and the moist air seemingly surrounded them.

At the top of the Old Literature Building, a tower embedded with Ichrite Academy's emblem stood high.

At the bottom of the silver shield-shaped central emblem, a statue of the Goddess of Fate was painted, holding a laurel crown, surrounded by Cross Holy Radiance.

"Do you feel that the statue of the Goddess of Fate is watching us?"

Sigrid suddenly pointed at the statue of the Goddess of Fate, asking Lanci.

"The first time we met in the Nirvana Branch's exam, the test question was to carve the statue of the Goddess of Fate."

Lanci also recalled his and Sigrid's genuine first meeting.

At that time, they were strangers in each other's eyes, not paying much attention to one another, and Sigrid was entirely disguised as Sikder.

"I never thought later on we'd hit it off, initially just felt this guy's carving skills were extraordinary, but didn't pay much attention to you, until you reported Examiner Priest Gaius, did I realize you were the talent I was seeking."

Sigrid mused.

"You altered my aspirations, and I could never return to the Nirvana Branch."

Lanci seemed to recall many things.

"Oh right, tomorrow's the weekend again, we should clear the weekly quests, you have a performance in the afternoon, so let's make it the morning then."

Sigrid also brought back a few Forget Dust Stars, one of her weekly fixed entertainment activities is going into the Memory Phantasmagoria with Lanci.

Whether at Herram or Brilda, they can always go back to play.

Since both mentioned their first encounter, their playing content can transform into their initial meeting.

"Oh dear, tomorrow morning I promised Tata to accompany her to the Gold Bee Amusement Park, there's a new event tomorrow, she wants to get the Animal Forest commemorative macaron."

Lanci lightly tapped his palm with his fist, remembering Talia's casual invitation while cooking for him last night.

"Then this won't do, morning you're with Tata, afternoon with Hugh, unless you stay the night with me, otherwise it's unfair!"
