Scene – Doramai School, Class 1-BPrecious and the others are seated in class while Bun, their teacher, begins the lesson.
Bun: "Alright, let's start today's class. I'll tell you about the Shin Kingdom."
The students listen carefully as Bun writes on the blackboard and explains.
Bun: "The Shin Kingdom has four cities and six villages. The first city is Agram — that's where our Doramai School is located, and also where the royal palace of the Shin Kingdom stands."
Tami (a student): "Wow, I didn't know that!"
Bun: "Next is Deli City, famous for its food. Then there's Ajma City, a large but ordinary city. And finally, Ayoka City, known throughout the kingdom for loyalty, faith, and trust. The biggest temple of the Shin Kingdom is located there."
Shai: "Sir, what's a temple?"
Bun: "A temple is where people greet the Tens and express their loyalty and devotion."
Nimi: "Sir, who are the Tens? Are they gods?"
Bun: "Yes, Tens are gods."
Pretty: "Ahn." (nods)
Bun: "Now, about the villages — the first one is Bees Village, famous for taming Giga Bees. No other city or village can do that, which is why it's called Bees Village."
Precious (whispering): "Yeah, I already know that."
Bun: "Next is Pera Village, the smallest one in the kingdom. Then there's Kasim, Pinaha, Chanak, Kanb, and Kashmi Village — these six villages are part of the Shin Kingdom."
He then summons a glowing map of the kingdom.
Bun: "This is the map of the Shin Kingdom. Some smaller, newly formed villages aren't shown here."
Aquira (thinking): "So… Bees Village is here, huh."
Bun: "Now, everyone must learn what I just taught. There will be a test next Monday."
Everyone: "What?! So soon?! The school just started!" (students chatter)
Pretty: "That's not fair…" (puts her head on the desk)
Precious and Aquira (calmly): "Okay, sir."
The entire class turns to stare at them like they've committed a crime.The bell rings.
Bun: "Alright, class is over. Good luck with your next lesson—and don't forget the test!"
Bun leaves the room, and the students start chatting again.
Shai: "Hey Precious."Precious: "Hmm?" (turning around)Shai: "There's no teacher right now, let's go talk to Pretty. It's been a while since we met her."Precious: "Yeah, good idea."
All three — Precious, Aquira, and Shai — walk toward Pretty's desk.
Shai: "Yo, Pretty!"Precious: "How are you, Ice?"
Pretty looks at them and notices Aquira standing beside Precious. Her expression changes. She ignores them and turns back to chat with Nimi and the others.
Precious: "Huh? Ice… what happened? It's me, Eye. Don't you remember?" (confused and tense)Shai: "Yeah, and I'm Shai. We're your friends — did you forget?"
Pretty turns to them with a cold look.Pretty: "Just get lost."
She goes back to talking with her friends. Precious looks shocked and hurt. Aquira takes his hand gently and leads him back to his seat, while Shai silently returns to his.
Nimi: "So, Pretty… who were those three?"Pretty: "Hmm, just some old friends. I don't know who that girl was though."Nimi: "Then why did you tell them to get lost?"Pretty: "Because… because… forget it."Nimi: "Okay…"
Meanwhile, Precious sits in silence, still in shock.
Aquira: "Who was that girl?"Shai: "Our old friend."Aquira: "Then why did she—?"Shai: "I don't know. Maybe she's angry or just… forgot us."Aquira: "I see."
Kail (Precious's mana skill): "Oh no, Precious… Pretty didn't even look at you, huh? That must sting~" (mocking tone)Precious: "Just shut up."Kail: "Okay, okay."
Precious: "Maybe… maybe she was just shy seeing her old friends again… yeah…"Kail: "Hmm? -_-"
Suddenly, the next teacher walks in.
Teacher: "Okay, silence."The class quiets down immediately.
Kabuto: "My name is Kabuto, your training instructor. I'll be teaching you about skills, weapons, and more. Today's topic — Pet Summoning."
Scene – The class continues, everyone paying attention seriously.
Kabuto: "To tame a pet, you must…"
(One hour later)The bell rings, ending the class.
Kabuto: "Alright, that's it for today. Tomorrow, we'll practice pet summoning physically."
Joshi (student): "Wait—tomorrow we get to summon our pets?!" (excited)Kabuto: "Yes, see you all tomorrow."
He leaves the classroom. Everyone starts packing their bags.
Precious: "You two go ahead, I'll be right back."Shai: "Okay."Aquira: "But…"
Precious walks out.
Scene – CorridorPretty walks ahead when Precious calls out.
Precious: "Ice, where are you going? Want to come to my house? My parents have a home here — Lior, Shai, and I are staying there."
Pretty (coldly): "So? Why should I tell you where I'm going?"Precious: "Because we're friends, right?"Pretty: "Just die."
She keeps walking away, leaving Precious standing still in shock.
