Hi everyone, I am back with another chapter. My exams are finally over. This one will take place before Kamito's blade dance of the night. Okay, that did not come out right.

'thoughts'

"Speech"

*sfx*

Time for the chapter to start.


*knock knock*

"Who's there?" Kamito got up and grabbed the doorknob.

"Ash, it's me, your master."

With a slight frown, Kamito opened the door with a smile.

"What do you want milady Rinslet?"

Rinslet was holding a tray with a nice hot bowl of chicken soup sitting atop of it. There was a nice fragrant emanating from it.

"This is for me!?"

"Yes. Just come back to being one of the Wolf Ritters. I'll even promote you to head maid."

The Wolf Ritters were spirit knights under the command of the Laurenfrost. They were also serving the Laurenfrosts as maids.

"How about no. I have had it with being a maid. See you later." *Bang* Kamito slams the door in Rinslet's face.

*bang**bang* Rinslet started kicking the door.

"Is this how you treat your ex-master?"

Kamito reluctantly opened the door. Rinslet then casually enters the room.

"Carol made too much." Rinslet places the tray down on the table.

'Carol made this? I don't believe that she would be able to make something like this.' Kamito thought as he looked out the door and saw Carol.

"Ah, Ash, why are you living inside the stable anyway?"

"The stable is next door. Ellis Fahrengart built this upon hearing word that a male student will be attending classes."

'Aww, you poor thing' was what Rinslet's eyes seemed to say when Kamito looked at her face.

"I would offer you to become my roommate but I already have Carol."

Rinslet turned on her heel and started walking out of the shed.

"It's a shame I couldn't hire you as a maid today."

"Wait, Rinslet." Kamito reached forward to stop her.

"I cannot be your maid, but since I am a student of the Academy, I'll be your friend."

"...Sure. Status does not matter in this Academy after all."

At the sight of her master being embarrassed at making a friend, Carol chuckled.

"Rinslet!"

With a sound of metal hitting the floor, a familiar voice cried out.

"Don't feed my maid without my permission, bitch!"

Claire had her arms on her hips and a clutter of canned food was on the floor in front of her.

"What was that?!" Rinslet started walking towards Claire.

"Who's the bitch, here?"

"Isn't the Laurenfrost crest a dog? It is obviously you."

"Why you-The crest of Laurenfrost is a proud white wolf."

"White wolf? A chihuahua fits better as the crest."

"...!"

Provoked by Claire, Rinslet glared at her opposition. Rinslet looked ready to fight.

Kamito exited the shed to tell the two girls off.

"Would you girls take this somewhere else? I want to enjoy my dinner."

But it was for naught as Rinslet started her summoning chant.

"Oh freezing beast with Ice-teeth, merciless hunter of the forest. Now is the time to abide the contract of blood, hasten to my side as commanded!"

A gust of chilling wind engulfed the surroundings. In the middle of it all, a silver-white wolf appeared.

The wolf then howled into the night.

'It has been a long time since I have seen Fenrir.'

Fenrir was the name of Rinslet's contracted spirit. The ice spirit had been part of the Laurenfrost family for had previously seen Rinslet's contracted spirit during his time as a maid.

"Your dog hardly changed, it still has its meritable coat." Claire taunted Rinslet at the appearance of Fenrir.

"Stop calling it a dog! You-you flat chest! You will pay for your insults towards the Laurenfrost family." Fenrir leaped to close the distance towards Claire.

"W-who are you calling a flat chest? Come! Scarlet!" Claire summoned her contracted spirit, the hell cat.

Scarlet stopped Fenrir in his tracks.

"-Hey you two, you can't fight with your spirits here." Kamito cried out.

"How dare you try to feed my maid, you bitch!"

"Whatever I do with him is none of your business."

The two girls stared intently at each other, sparks would have been produced where those gazes met.

'From hearing those two lines only, one would think that they are fighting over a man.'

"The two ladies look like lovers fighting over a man."

"You don't have to say that Carol. By the way, is it okay to just watch? Shouldn't we try and help them?"

"It is okay, they have always been like this."

"These two have been fighting with each other for a long time?"

"Yes, they are the best of friends."

'Are you serious Carol?'

Kamito sighed and facepalmed.

"You are an eyesore, Claire Rouge."

"The same can be said for you, Rinslet Laurenfrost."

"-Scarlet!"

"-Fenrir!"

The two spirits then jumped and clashed with each other. Ice and fire collide.

Meanwhile, Kamito is clearing the shack of valuables as he was sure that the shack would be damaged in the middle of the fight. Sure enough, a stray ember landed on Kamito's bed and lit it on fire. The fire then quickly spread across the wooden walls.

'These two have gone too far.'

"HEY! You two! Look at what you have done to my house!" Kamito shouted as he dragged his luggage out of the house.

"Rinslet! Look, there is a fire."

"Your methods of distraction won't work on... Oh the shed really is on fire."

"My home!"

"Calm down! Fenrir can easily put it out." Rinslet ordered Fenrir and turned him into her Elemental Waffe.

"Oh freezing ice fang, pierce your target! Freezing Arrow!"

Rinslet shot an arrow which turned into countless ice shards in midair, each putting out fire when it landed.

The fire has been extinguished, but the damage was done, Kamito's hut was scorched and was unable to support itself. The hut collapsed inwards.

"What are you doing!"

A blue-haired figure appeared followed by a girl with braided tea-coloured hair and a girl with short black hair.

Ellis Fahrengart, the leader of the Sylphid Knights, had heard the commotion and came to check it out.

Upon noticing the shattered hut, she cried out:"This is... What on earth did you do?"

Ellis charged forward and pointed her sword at Kamito's throat.

"Being placed in this situation three times in one day is getting ridiculous. Besides, I had no part in this, these two ladies are to blame." Kamito pointed to the two troublemakers behind him.

"It was this eyesore that destroyed the house."

"Before that, that pitiful chest set it on fire."

The two girls accused each other, fingers pointed at each other's faces.

"These girls from the lowly Raven Class created trouble again." One of the knights spoke up.

"Yeah, Ice Wolf Rinslet and Hell Cat Claire."

"Oh, and isn't that maid the new male transfer student?"

"I get it, the countryside noble and the sister of a traitor must have thought to use sex appeal to try and get him to join their team."

"You dare call me a countryside noble!?"

Rinslet was angrier than when she faced off with Claire.

"Yeah, Laurenfrost is only a big name. That is all they have."

Suddenly, their insults stopped as a hand was placed on each of their shoulders.

"You ladies have gone too far."

Kamito released killing intent with a smile.

The two girls leapt back, creating distance from Kamito.

"What the-" "How did you-"

Kamito ignored them and faced Ellis.

"Ellis Fahrengart, you should finish your business here, I will have to contact Greyworth about my house."

'I have to write a letter of notification to inform Greyworth that I will be using the other option for my residence.'

Ellis turned back to the two troublemakers.

"Alright, Claire and Rinslet, this matter will be reported. Both of you will receive punishments for arson and destruction of property."

Then, Ellis addressed her ccompanions that were still standing still, dumbfounded.

"You two, we're done here. Let's go."

However, just as the three turned their backs, Claire called out to them.

"Hold on! Ellis Fahrengart! Are you trying to run away?"

Ellis turned back, her face looked furious.

"What did you say?"

"I said, the Sylphid Knights are all cowards."

"Claire Rouge, do you think you can just get away with insulting the Sylphid Knights?"

"You should be considering whether it is fine to insult my sister! Ellis Fahrengart, I challenge you and the two knights to a duel!"

"Allow me to join as well, I have to take revenge to those that insult the Laurenfrost family."

Ellis drew her sword and pointed it in the middle of the two ladies.

"It would be embarrassing to the Sylphid Knights if we were rumoured to run away. I accept, I will be able to punish the troublemakers of Raven Class."

Kamito decided to try to stop things from escalating.

"Isn't fighting on school grounds prohibited?"

"Only for private matters. Don't worry, we will be fighting somewhere else."

Kamito tilted his head. However, no one decided to answer his question. Instead, Ellis confirmed the details of the duel with Claire.

"2am in front of the gate. Feel free to choose the format of the duel."

"Three on three. One on one is too troublesome."

"That is fine."

Ellis proceeded to leave the scene with her companions.

"Three on three? But there is only the two of you."

"You still owe me a favour Ash. I will use it to request your help."

Kamito was dragged into a battle on his first day.

'At least I slept earlier, I won't be drowsy.'


The chapter is done. The next part will be combat. Kamito will be able to show the results of his training.
