"It seems it didn't work" Linet muttered ruefully. Shaking her hand, she undid the spell that she put in the room to listen to Sona's conversation.

She was aware of what Sona was planning but there was nothing she could do to help her. Also, with the events that happened, Sona would have to go talk to her father about her idea of ​​playing a chess game with Bane, which her father would surely refuse.

Sighing, Linet adjusted her position and waited for Bane to come out. She may not be able to help Sona but could accompany and cheer her on.

As she had calculated, it wasn't long before Bane left the room accompanied by Ruriko, and unlike before, Bane and Ruriko looked noticeably more relaxed than when they first entered the room.

When he passed Linet's side, Bane nodded to Linet in greeting and walked as fast as he could towards the exit.

In the same way, Linet saluted Bane and with light steps crossed the doors of the room. Upon entering the room, she found Sona sitting in a corner of the sofa at the end of the room, without saying a word, she approached her and wrapped her small body in her arms.

Sona was surprised but before she could complain, she heard Linet's voice.

"Take it easy, normally things don't work out the way we want but that's why you shouldn't give up," Linet mumbled loud enough for Sona to hear her.

Hearing Linet's words, Sona felt a weight disappear from her ċhėst.

*Sniff

"I ... tried"

"Yes"

"I tried hard to learn"

"I know"

"I tried to show that I can be a good heiress"

"You always were a good heiress"

"So, why does everything have to be against me?" Sona murmured as tears slid down her face.

She had strived to be better, to show that even if she didn't have the terrifying talent for magic like her sister, she could be just as powerful. She believed that demonstrating what she was capable of would make her father change his mind about her commitment, but all her efforts were useless, her father did not change his mind and her mother did not support her.

Even so, she didn't give up, she tried even harder,

she trained harder, she tried to learn everything she could but all her effort went overboard and it was all her fault. If she had not asked the last question, Bane would not have noticed her despair and would not go to speak to her father to corroborate if what she said was true or a false that was a lie.

Seeing Sona cry, broke linet's heart she was so used to Sona's mȧturė attitude that she forgot that she was still young, she forgot that just like everyone her age, she had complexes, fears, and insecurities.

"Don't give up, Sona-sama. We all make mistakes, stupid mistakes that can change everything, but the important thing is to learn from them so as not to repeat them. Learn that we are not perfect, that we shouldn't have afraid of making mistakes, we must be afraid of not knowing how to correct them" Linet's voice echoed in the room, her words were full of confidence, and experience.

Those were the words Sona needed to keep going, not to give up, to learn.

"Thanks," Sona murmured, still not sure what to do but would not sit idly by.

"Come on, you still have a lot to do" Linet encouraged her with a smile.

"Hm," Sona nodded as she wiped the tear tracks from her eyes.

She still wasn't sure what to do but the longer it took to come up with a plan the fewer opportunities she had to break her engagement so she had to get down to business.

For her part, Linet looked with a smile at Sona who ran out of the room, she was sure she was still depressed but she tried to hide it.

Sighing heavily, Linet felt useless, as a maid there was nothing she could do to help Sona but she knew who could.

Holding her hand to her ear, a magic circle slowly formed at a few her fingers.

"Serafall-sama, we have to talk"

-----

(NA: Yachi is the exorcist and Ryo his childhood friend)

The graduation ended without complications, the entire auditorium resounded with the joy of parents and peers alike, this was the moment that many students expected in their lives, to be free, fulfill their dreams and be happy. This was the moment that many longed for but few knew the turning point that this moment represents in their lives.

Leo continued to watch silently, even if he didn't want to, this brought back memories of his first life, just as they, he was happy but from that moment, instead of his life getting better it only got worse.

Stopping his line of thought, Leo decided to leave those memories deep in his mind.

"Yachi, are you ready?" Bigi asked with a smug smile.

(NA: Bigi is Yachi's friend. I leave these notes because some complain that they have forgotten what the story was about)

"Y ... yes," Yachi stuttered.

"Good luck" Bigi tried to cheer him up.

Yachi mechanically nodded towards Bigi and went to look for Ryo.

Student 1: "You think this time he can do it?"

Student 2: "I don't think so"

Student 3: "I think yes, the fifth time is the right one. Or was it the sixth time?"

Teacher: "I bet it won't"

The student who is the teacher's boyfriend: "I double your bet"

"Please, it is not polite to bet among yourselves the possible rejection of my friend. We have to make it official first! COME AND MAKE YOUR BETS" Bigi exclaimed as he pulled out a notebook.

* Behind the school

It didn't take long for Yachi to find Ryo, as always, he took her behind the school. She already seemed used to it so she accompanies him without asking anything.

'Tell her what you feel, be honest, praise her but not too much, I don't want her to think I only love her for her physique. you can Yachi '

[You're going to forget everything, it always happens]

"So Yachi, what did you want to tell me?" Ryo asked with a mischievous smile.

[She already knows… he's screwed]

"I ..." Yachi stuttered.

Ryo waited patiently for Yachi to finish speaking, but over time he grew impatient.

'Say it' Ryo thought.

[he doesn't gonna a say it]

Yachi looked at Ryo and doubts began to fill his mind, he no longer felt so safe and he no longer wanted to.

But… he didn't want to back down anymore, now was the time, he had to take a risk.

"Y ... you eh, do you want to be my girlfriend?"

"Yes," She replied immediately.

Yachi: "Eh?"

"Did you not hear me? Yes, I want to be your girlfriend" Ryo said with a smile.

Yachi: ' I did it?'

Students and teachers observing from the class: "He did it?"

Yachi: 'I did it!'
