A Cunning Twit, Ayla!

Back in the Archery class private room after the unexpected end of Tania Elizabeth's Conference.

"Whoa! Is that true, Ares? Are you really Mika Amami's disciple?" Ayla said with a surprised expression.

"...."

I was speechless as I saw Ayla pretend surprised when she already knew about that.

But Having heard Ayla. Livia, Lucas, and Diana all turned to face me, waiting for my response.

"...Yeah, it's true," I agreed, smiling.

After hearing my confirmation, there was a brief silence between them.

And, in the midst of it all, I noticed Ayla cheekily smirking.

"...Ziona, you didn't appear surprised at all; did you already know about it?" Ayla questioned Ziona.

"Yes, he revealed that in our first advisor's training class," Ziona replied.

"...I see, then Livia was probably aware of that as well, right? Given how close she is to Ares," Ayla said, turning to face Livia.
