"Now that I think about it... That little one doesn't look suspicious at all... Look at her eat that parfait happily..." The girls thought as they looked at the group huddled in the corner.

"I feel like those three are just eating because they have too... And that one is just sleeping because why the heck not... The big guy is... Greedily devouring his large steak... And that other girl with those bossoms is also enjoying her parfait. But just not as much as that little one." The girls whispered to each other as they agreed mutually to stay away from four individuals.

"What are you girls whispering to each other about?" Elise asked them.

"Nothing at all!" The girls replied back in fright, as they were not expecting Elise to talk to them at the moment.

"Mmm... Alright then." Elise said as she continued to sip on her tea as she did her homework.

"Elise onee-sama, what are you doing?" The girl asked her.

"I am doing my homework." Elise said as she wrote down an answer.

"Homework for what class?" The girl asked her again.

"Homework for, "How to get out of the academy 101."" Elise said while still keeping on her poker face as she wrote down more answers.

"Eh? Why do you even need to learn that? Is that even a class?" The girls asked her with a puzzled expression on their face.

"It's not a class. I was just asked by the teachers to give them multiple escape routes if needed from the academy." Elise said as she looked at the group of girls and then at the group in the corner enjoying their meals.

"Oh. It must be for something important then huh?" The girl asked her.

"I guess it's semi-important. That is, if we ever get attacked." Elise said as she looked at the girl.

"Hopefully that never happens. I don't want to get attacked." The girls said in fear.

"Hopefully indeed. Because only people with power would attack the academy. So if they do, it's basically the teachers that need to fight. Along with families and the royal army coming to help. Probably us too." Elise said as she looked at the girls.

"What do you mean by us?" The girls asked.

"Of course not you students. I mean us, me, Sylvie, Lance and the others." Elise said.

"EH!?" The girls cried out in unison when they heard that.

"Isn't it dangerous for you all to fight?" The girls asked her

"I mean it's alright. We're used to fighting anyway. We went adventuring most of the time anyway." Elise said as she waved her off.

"We're already B-class adventurers. We can't be A or higher due to certain circumstances and reasons, but otherwise, it's rather alright." Elise said as she drank her tea.

...

"You hear that!? We may have to fight! However, how come she only said Sylvie and Lances name? And just called us others? Is she trying to say we can't fight?" Maria said as she looked at the group.

"I mean, you guys are pretty bad at fighting if I have to be honest." Lance said as he looked at them.

"..." The group just stared at him as Sylvie ate her parfait.
