Who's going to take care of it at night though... they can take turns on doing so.

Ah- who knew it would be really easy communicating with the Villainess. It seems that she was really serious about keeping a high profile on her studies, she doesn't even mind that she can't take care of the egg in the afternoon because she has a job.

"What do you mean we'll share on taking care of the egg- No?! You're going to do it because I said so. You're just the son of a lower Baron! I suggest taking care of it yourself or else." a screech of yelling revealed a red haired girl with one of her hands placed on her hips.

Analissa couldn't help but look at their direction and saw Lady Serene, cornering a poor boy onto doing the egg project alone. She wasn't sure if she should intervene, things looked rather intense there and she was sure this ladyship was not fond of her presence.

She could only apologize in her heart for the boy!

"Serene... not again." (Lady Evelyn) rubs the side of her temples to relax after seeing what her friend just did. 

"Apologies, Miss Blanchet. I have to take care of something." she excuses herself from Analissa who nods in understanding and sets aside her friend that looks like she was about to explode from rage. 

"Come on, let's talk." (Lady Evelyn) takes in the attention of her childhood friend before the other girl frowns seeing Evelyn. 

Lady Serene groans seeing her only friend was there to give her some pep talk again. "What? I'm the daughter of someone in a higher ranking. I don't need to waste my time taking care of some egg when I can just pass with flying colors leaving it to someone lower than me."

She glares at the commoner who was only allowed in this academy for her light magic. Analissa felt uncomfortable in her seat and looked away awkwardly.

She's really out for me!

Analissa thought, feeling the piercing gaze from Lady Serene. Ugh, nobles!

Having enough of it Lady Evelyn crosses her arms and gives her childhood friend the silent treatment while she gives out the next excuse to use. "Come on Evelyn-! We've been friends, you know I don't like labor, it's only for commoners." (Lady Serene) complains to her friend but still nothing worked.

"You help him. End of discussion." (Lady Evelyn) goes back to her seat with Analissa and Lady Serene rolls her eyes in annoyance but what can she do? Her goody two shoes friend ordered to help- so she's going to help.

Analissa looked at Lady Serene who told the boy that she'll take care of the egg during the weekends only. Leaving the boy to take care of it for the rest of the days, meaning five days was his duty and she was only left with two days.

"Better than nothing I guess..." (Analissa) muttered to herself and looked at the Villainess in admiration. Up until now she wonders why... this woman was deemed of a title she doesn't even deserve. "It was kind of you to help him, your ladyship."

Lady Evelyn didn't know how to feel about Analissa's compliment. Was it something to be considered... kind? "Do not mistake it for an act of kindness. Serene, one day she will be behind me when I rule the kingdom as queen. I just... need her to experience the meaning of responsibility that is all."

I guess she'll be learning what responsibility is from an egg, huh.

Analissa noticed that the Villainess's ears were a little red but she was keeping her face straight. Aw... was she too shy to say thanks? Analissa was willing to bet for her life if the Villainess was born with some sort of tail behind her, it would be wagging right now.

What a tsundere.

"Hehe. It's alright your ladyship. I also really like this side of you." (Analissa) told her casually feeling her chest tightening. "You know you could just accept the compliment."

Lady Evelyn shakes her head not believing this girl. "From now on, you're not allowed to say such things like that."

"I can't comply with that rule, your ladyship. Oh right! Since it's the afternoon I suppose you'll be the one who'll take care of the egg first. I'll come pick it up after work..." (Analissa) carefully takes the egg from the desk and gives it to Lady Evelyn who accepts.

"Do you know where my dorm resides?" (Lady Evelyn) asks and Analissa comes to a halt. From the look of her face it seems not. "If you search the noble dormitory and ask a servant there for my name. They'll lead you to me."

Analissa let out an 'o' expression and nodded in thanks. "I'll do my best at work so please do wait for me!" She gives her a little curtsy before running out of class.

The Villainess looks at the egg before smiling a little. "We'll be waiting I suppose." she gestures to the egg knowing that she won't be alone.

Lord Ein saw the scene and wished the little blonde girl good luck on her little crush. He'll ask for her progress once a few days would pass.
