Leon was your typical guy, perceived as weak in his school because his skills hadn't awakened, even though they usually did at the coming of age. He attended the prestigious Milham's Magic Knight Academy, where snagging the top spot meant automatic entry into the esteemed position of a Magic Knight in the country. Unfortunately, Leon found himself in the lower caste, labeled the most useless student. To top it off, he was tossed into a class that served as a sanctuary for oddballs and delinquents. Yet, he couldn't care less, as becoming a Magic Knight wasn't his goal.

Everything shifted when he crossed paths with Shredica, a woman hell-bent on becoming a Magic Knight at any cost. Observing Leon's lack of ambition and his apparent detachment from the academy's pursuits, Shredica saw an opportunity. She decided to exploit him as a pawn in her ascent through the academy's hierarchy.

Yet, unbeknownst to Shredica, Leon was not the complacent, unremarkable figure she presumed him to be.

The World Is Mine For The Taking

The third day of joint training dawned, and our group returned to the familiar training spot.

As we strolled, Titania turned to me, fists clenched. "I'm going to ask her to spar with me," she declared, a hint of nervousness in her voice. "But... I'm really on edge, Leon. I don't think I can..."

"Come on, don't bail on me now. I promise she'll agree if you ask," I reassured her.

"Really?" she questioned, still visibly anxious.

I gave her head an encouraging pat, ruffling her hair gently. "Yes, really."

As I did that, a symphony of disapproving clicks of tongues echoed around us.

"Flirting when we're supposed to be training, how shameless."

"Well, I can't deny he's attractive... but he's skillless."

"He must have pulled some tricks for her to accept being in a relationship with him."
