Chapter 73 (1/2)

It happened on a day a little while after Doug and Fii started getting along.

When Fii headed to a break area, she discovered that a lot of boys were gathering around some piece of paper, kicking up some kind of fuss. Even Gorms, Slad and Remié were there.

They seemed to be having a lot of fun.

“Whatcha looking at? Show me too!”

So Fii came over as well.

“Mn? It has nothing to do with you, Heath.”

“Yep, yep. There’s not much meaning even if you get involved Heath.”

“Yeah, I think it would be better if you ignored this, Heath.”

However, their att.i.tudes were awfully cold. Or rather than cold, dismissive, perhaps.

Being the only one excluded made Fii frown and puff up her cheeks.

“What the heck! Why am I the only one excluded!”

She jumped up and pinched Gorms’ cheek.

“Owowow, what the heck did I do!”

“Shut up! The moment you tried leaving me out, you were guilty of the same crime!”

“Alright, alright already! If you wanna see, then see!”

The apprentice knights hurriedly handed a piece of paper to the kicking and screaming Fii.

Fii took it into her hands and had a look.

It was a list of everyone in the Northern Dormitory as well as a bunch of numbers next to their names. And at the top, a certain t.i.tle was visible.

“Man… liness… rankings…?” she asked in confusion.

“The Manliness Rankings,” corrected another apprentice knight.

“It’s a ranking to decide who the manliest of all is in the Northern Dormitory.”

“The person who takes first place is the one who wins.”

“That’s why it doesn’t have much to do with you Heath.”

Fii suddenly felt very offended.

Manliness? Of course she had that!
