as cute before she can respond Alexia steps in swiftly intercepting the situation with a radiant smile Alexia gladly accepts on leticia's behalf mistaking the boy's intentions however when the boy clarifies that he intended to show the tissue around Alexia's protective instincts kick in she grips the boy's arm flashing a smile and assures him that Leticia would have appreciate the gesture yet the boy's comment triggers leticia's ire suppressing her anger she curtly reminds him that she's also a lady of Lambert and inquires if he has ulterior motives concerning her precious little sister Alexia's expression alone is sufficient to make the boy Retreat hastily Alexia then cautions Leticia to stay vigilant and contact her if any trouble arises as Leticia watches Alexia walk away she realizes that despite her overbearing nature her sister's actions stem from a place of genuine care after the first class concludes Leticia finds herself immersed in a curriculum that aligns with her

encourages her to embrace self-confidence moved by leticia's words Diana's eyes glisten with tears which she promptly wipes away Leticia inquires about Diana's emotional state prompting Diana to respond with a smile she confides that leticia's kind words are a first since arriving in this world evoking a sense of Joy she hadn't experienced before with a nod Leticia acknowledges that such

affection for someone named Liam surprising Leticia she learns that Liam was Diana's main love interest in the game alleviating any concerns about competition for the crown Prince's affections this Revelation also bodes well for Alexia who seemed to be headed towards the Crown Prince route Diana admits her hesitance in expressing her feelings for Liam considering her admiration a ridiculous Endeavor Leticia counters this notion with an encouraging smile assuring her that falling in love is a wonderful experience she promises her unwavering support and cheers for Diana's success moved by leticia's sincerity Diana's eyes glisten with renewed tears Leticia Witnesses the Purity in Diana's emotions and realizes she wants to be a source of encouragement whether Diana hails from another

encountering several individuals who share her predicament meeting someone from her own world brings her a sense of comfort thoughts turned to the potential conflicts she might encounter especially

the villainouses from the game with a bow Leticia inquires how she can assist them Karina accuses her of insulting her and offers a conditional forgiveness if Leticia apologizes and prevents her families reputation from being solid Leticia grasps the weight of Karina's Duke household status and the potential repercussions she swallows her pride and apologizes Karina appears to be satisfied

casts a binding spell on her rendering her helpless as her mind races to find a solution she grapples with the realization that she's trapped in this magical constraint wondering how she can possibly Escape its grip Karina's smug grin widens as she mocks leticia's apparent incompetence in blocking even the simplest magic she goes on to demand an apology which reluctantly Leticia offers however Karina's arrogance only grows as she commands Leticia to go even further and kneel down to apologize properly the weight of the situation presses upon leticia's mind she's aware that Karina is affiliated with the same magic Department as Alexia refusing could potentially lead to dire consequences for her sister's academic standing or even her safety with a heavy heart Leticia begins to bend ready to acquiesce to Karina's demand but in an astonishing turn of events her magic Stone starts to emit a radiant glow severing the chains that had imprisoned her simultaneously the girl who cast the spell is inflicted with burns on her hands causing her to cry out in pain Letitia is dumbfounded by this sudden twist and wonders if this surge of magic is somehow related to Lionel as if summoned by her thoughts Lionel materializes beside her in a magical display his grin is both charming and reassuring as he tells Leticia that there's no need for her to kneel is gaze sharpens as he fixes his attention on the Mean Girls Who had dared to Target Leticia an aura of intimidation radiates from him sending chills down the spines of the onlookers in a voice that's Frosty in controlled Lionel

amid the raindrops Leticia questioned whether Diana's distance from Liam was due to a quarrel Diana's response however painted a deeper picture her struggles as an orphan and the overwhelming fear that had colored her experiences in this unfamiliar World her voice trembled as she recounted her past the tears mixing with the rain and in the midst of her narrative one name stood out Liam the one figure who had provided her Solace and familiarity in her darkest moments the recognition was instant for he was a character from The Very game they had found themselves entangled in Diana's arms wrapped around Liam a profound sense of relief washing over her as she finally found solace in the presence of someone familiar with his visits to the orphanage for charitable Deeds he had taken upon himself to watch over her creating a bond that deepened with each encounter the connection between them grew naturally their hearts entwined as they navigated their shared moments however as her feelings for Liam flourished so did the knowledge of the differences between their stations in life she an orphan feared that her her presence would only bring suffering to him tainting his life with her own struggles tears streamed down her face as she confessed this truth to Leticia assuring her that her tears weren't born out of jealousy but rather from the torment of her own apprehensions observing Diana's emotional turmoil leticia's heart ached in response she recognized the universal truth that people often strive to match the worth of those they cherish grappling with anxieties and

orphanage the very reason she had distanced herself from Liam his anger ignited Liam's Fury threatened to escalate the situation but Cedric's intervention halted his rash actions Cedric's wisdom reminded Liam of the potential consequences of impulsive actions cautioning that such decisions could only bring further suffering to Diana Liam's rage abated replaced by a deep realization

desire to protect her was unwavering tears pooled in Diana's eyes as she responded with her own apologies The Mending of their relationship unfolding before their friend's eyes Leticia a silent spectator to this intimate moment held hope in her heart for their future she longed for their connection to flourish to stand the test of time and adversity Cedric's approach brought a measure of relief as he remarked on the successful reconciliation with gratitude Leticia acknowledged his role expressing thanks for his assistance in drying Diana's clothes through his magic a gentle gesture from Cedric a sweep of her hair behind her ear stirred a range of emotions within Leticia his words held an implicit promise a willingness to go to Great Lengths to ensure her happiness but before the sentiment could fully settle Lionel intervened his protectiveness evident as he shielded Leticia from Cedric's advances despite Cedric's smug smile the moment underscored the complexities of their intertwined relationships a mixture of camaraderie rivalry and unspoken feelings when Lionel gets mad at Cedric for making such a scene with his fiancee he warns him almost instantly and suggests that he will need to quit this kind of behavior from now on sensing that there must be a great hostility inside of Lionel's mind after seeing what he had done previously Cedric suggests that he should clam down adding that he was only setting her hair over her ears and nothing else so that shouldn't bring out that much of his reaction but in the meantime Cedric keeps on Staring at Leticia like he is smirking inside of him and suggests that if a hair gets in her eye that would have been truly terrible to make his opinion valid in front of Lionel then after hearing such from Cedric Lionel claims that he should be the one worrying about all that and not him while keeping his face straight in anger but even though he keeps hostility between them Lionel continues to act respectfully toward him since he is nothing else but the Crown Prince who will be the next king Leticia finds herself to be in a puzzling situation and even Liam and Diana continue to watch them in confusion as if they are unable to digest what is happening around them then all of a sudden Cedric claims that he has made Lionel hate him and because of that even before the situation continues to transpire even more by Lionel hating him much more than that he will be the one leaving the location Liam thinks that they should be leaving soon enough as well as they have wasted too much time while all of them are gone Leticia wonders what she might be saying to Lionel as she is quite speechless for the moment but she ends up calling him by his name then Lionel surprisingly Embraces her with without even her guessing that it is about to happen and Leticia is unable to understand what is even happening inside of his head then Lionel remarks that he truly hates Cedric and she guesses it right that he is truly talking about Cedric for real and gets confused and startled then he adds that Leticia will need to avoid him if he keeps on approaching her in the future but Leticia thinks that it will be quite difficult for her to do so then Lionel remarks that he will be needing to get rid of him which makes Leticia to wonder what kind of insanity he must be plotting in the first place she thinks that Lionel must be quite jealous seeing that Cedric is trying too hard to get close to her to assure him that she is never about to leave his side she claims that the only person that she will like till the end is him and no one else both of them soon engage in an intimate kiss and the scene shifts soon enough as the night passes like that at night Karina and her members of Mean Girls can be seen talking to some kind of astrologer and it seems Karina is not happy that they have been called into the den of hers but her companion claims that the astrologer makes accurate guesses of about them Fortune so it might be useful against their enemies meaning that it might not make them lose anything if they end up trying it out Karina thinks that the idea of fortune telling must be absurd and it is not like she is in the mood for something like this then while thinking about the present she remembers how Lionel went against her saying that Leticia is his fiancee and started warning them as she feels the frustration Rising inside of her she starts to clench her fists to grab her clothes deeming that she is truly anxious about the future she thinks that even though she might be quite exceptional there is no way she would be letting someone like Leticia to take Lionel away from her like that soon the fortune teller asks Karina if she hates her and the idea of the woman speaking her mind starts to get her startled the fortune teller takes her aside saying that Leticia is an incompetent woman and when Karina realizes that the woman can be saying that must which means that there will be more to her potential soon the woman shows an amulet which is to make someone disappear if they hate that person the woman holds their amulet in front of her and starts asking if she would like to try it out on her as the scene shifts Diana can be seen with Leticia and Alexia and it seems that she is quite nervous if she is all right to have a cup of tea with them Diana is concerned that the girls will get on with bullying Leticia once again if they see them together and Leticia seems confident that she doesn't care what anyone thinks since she wants to spend time with her Alexia claims that Diana is also her new friend and if someone tries to mess with her she will surely make that person vanish soon Lauren comes in calling the name of Alexia along with Liam and Lionel and the pair of couples continue to chat while making jokes with each other while chatting up with each other Leticia notices that Lionel is staring at her these days and Lionel thinks that she is doing the opposite then all of a sudden when Lionel goes on to smell her hair she ends up engaging each other into a passionate kiss once again
