Scarlet was enrolled in the Villainess Academy to learn how the world of evil truly operates. She possessed hearts so pure and innocent that were often considered naive, easily believing whatever she was told, which made her seem foolish in the eyes of others. A girl with no mana, no aura, cannot summon a spirit, or execute a magic. Her parents, worried that her innocence and inability to survive in the world would be her downfall, they enrolled her in the Villainess Academy, hoping they would learn the harsh realities of the world and toughen up. 

In the academy where she was bullied and belittle, Scarlet met someone who would protect her. But this person is hiding in shadow

Hide in Shadows

Lately, I noticed something different about Scarlet. Ever since the dragon-riding competition, she barely joined us for meals. Instead, she started eating with this other girl she met. It wasn't like her to distance herself like this.

"Sera," I called out as we sat in the common area.

"Hm?" she replied without looking up from her book.

"Have you noticed anything... strange about Scarlet lately?" I asked, leaning closer.

Sera finally looked up, raising an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"I mean, she's been acting... different. She barely eats with us anymore. She's always with that girl," I said, crossing my arms. "Don't you think it's weird?"

Sera tilted her head, thinking. "You're talking about the girl she went yesterday, right? Isn't she her classmate from one of the class?"

"Yeah, her," I muttered. "Do you think they're close?"
