## Prologue

*[Show/Hide]*

On a particularly hot day, the S Ranks are all gathered in the Headmaster's Office. Fenn remarks that he assumes there's a reason why Lou suddenly summoned all of them. Lou says he gathered them all here today in order to request them to do something. He explains that the Incantaleaf in the forest is suddenly spreading rapidly. Roy says he recalls that the Incantaleaf has existed for hundreds of years. Lynt asks why it suddenly started to spread. Lou says the cause is unknown. However, he can't leave it unchecked, so he called them all here. As Lou is about to tell them what he wants them to do, Guy interrupts and says that Lou probably called them here to get rid of all of the Incantaleaf. Lou says appreciates Guy's ability to get to the point of things using only a few words. He then kindly smiles at Guy despite the fact that he just interrupted him. Guy says that they should end this meeting now since they already know what Lou wants them to do. Roy agrees with Guy. Toa is annoyed and says that Guy doesn't speak for all of them. Guy clicks his tongue and tells Toa to do something then. As they are both about to start arguing again, a languid voice cuts in. It's Lynt and he says they should all help out. Lou wishes them good luck and tells them to be cautious. Fenn chuckles and remarks that it seems like Lou is worried about them. He reassures Lou by saying that they'll be fine if they're all together. The princes then leave the Headmaster's Office and go to the forest to search for the overgrown patch of Incantaleaf. After they leave, Lou murmurs that he hopes nothing bad will happen.

In the forest, the S Ranks, along with Jasper and Tino, find the Incantaleaf which is growing all over the place. Fenn says he knew that it had spread, but it's really everywhere. Roy remarks that this goes beyond imagination. Toa clears his throat and tells them that the should work if they have time to stand around and talk. Fenn flippantly says yes. He then remarks that Toa is so impatient. Lynt tells Tino to stay there. Tino suggests that he should be the one to do the spellwork for Lynt due to the risk involved. Jasper comments on how it will take a long time to get rid of this much Incantaleaf. Guy says he has no intention of staying here for a long time, so they should just quickly finish with all this nonsense. With Guy's lead, magic flows through every member present. Several hours later, they have finished removing all of the Incantaleaf and have returned to their respective rooms.

Meanwhile, MC's lecture just finished and she is walking down the hallway. MC comes across Guy and greets him good evening. In response, Guy coughs and clears his throat. MC asks if he's alright and if he caught a cold. Guy says he didn't. After his brief response, he walks away. MC is puzzled by his behavior, but continues on her way. Next, she goes to the Rooftop Garden and sees Roy. She calls out to him in greeting, but he doesn't reply. Roy has a look of surprise on his face, but quickly changes that to a smile before leaving the Rooftop Garden. MC just assumes that Roy must have been in a hurry to leave. Afterwards, MC heads to Dorm Tradis. In the foyer, she spots Jasper who is coming down the stairs. Jasper greets her good evening and MC returns his greeting. She then notices some fluff on his jacket, so she reaches out and dusts it off. MC tells Jasper that he had fluff on his jacket and asks if he's feeling alright. Jasper says he feels fine. He then apologizes saying he has an urgent matter to attend to. Jasper's face is faintly red, but he gives a neat bow before hurrying away.

The next place MC's heads to is the Refectory. MC sees Tino and greets him good evening. Tino returns her greeting and sweetly smiles at her. He then uses his hand to smooth over her hair. Tino then comments that MC is looking very lovely today. MC is confused by his strange behavior. Tino suddenly realizes what he just blurted out and becomes flustered. Next, MC is walking up the stairs in Dorm Tradis. She comes across Fenn who greets her. While she's walking up the stairs, he then flings himself at her from behind and tightly hugs her. MC shrieks in surprise. MC scolds Fenn and tells him not to scare her like that. Fenn flippantly apologizes and says he couldn't help himself when he saw her. As she turns her head to face him, he suddenly lets out a yawn. Fenn abruptly lets go and says goodbye. He says he'll see her next time and waves goodbye while walking off somewhere. Further down the hallway, MC sees Toa waiting in front of her room. MC asks him if everything is alright. He bluntly says "How dare you" and tells her to not come any closer. MC is perplexed by his behavior. Toa also seems to be surprised by his harsh words and excuses himself. He grimaces and then hurries away.

On the next day, MC wonders if it was just her imagination that everyone was acting strangely yesterday. She hopes that everything is okay. MC then spots someone down the hallway. She just finished her class and hurries towards the person that she spotted. MC calls out to them and that person is surprised. The person she's speaking to is...
