For hundreds of years, it had always been the same, with very few exceptions.
However, just now...
What did I hear?
A seemingly insignificant team from Duke Landon's Mansion had actually obtained an S-rank evaluation in the trial?
The assessments at the Royal Academy are absolutely fair, as they are comprehensive evaluations based on the trial performance by the academy's instructors.
This meant that the team from the Landon family had performed better than the three major royal family teams in the trial, achieving the only, and the first in at least the past ten years, new student trial "S-rank evaluation"?
...
Of course, the most excited about this news were the members of a certain five-person team.
Garfield, Serli, Gale, Jessica, and Leonard Churchill.
David was a slave, ineligible for rewards, neither happy nor sad.
Even Leonard Churchill was surprised.
He wasn't surprised by the previously high evaluation of the trial.
