The sun is overcast by clouds, small bits of light streaming through even as the day draws closer to it's end. Lancelot and his two female classmates take the steps up from the second floor to the roof, and there--
"Prince Cedric?!" His voice and stance express his uncertainty. By no means was he mentally prepared for this meeting.
His teacher... "Rean"... is standing there with a blonde boy who appears to be around their age as well. So that must be "Cedric". However, his uniform is a different color than the one Lancelot saw himself in previously. This one is a vibrant red, although the style itself is the same. Whether that's because he's apparently the prince or something else, he can't be sure.
Instructor Rean says several names-- "Juna" and "Altina" he already knew. However... there's a new one. One that Cedric also uses.
"Ah, hello Kurt! It's been some time. Nearly half a year, I believe. I'm glad to see you again. I never expected someone of your caliber to enroll at the branch campus."
Those words appear to cause him even greater discomfort. He seems taken aback, as if he can barely believe it. "Is... is that really you, Your Highness?" His voice even shakes a little.
"Indeed. I've grown quite a bit recently, so it's no wonder you don't recognize me. It seems the past few months have been difficult for you. I imagine after so many years of loyal service, it was a shock for the Vanders to be dismissed as the Imperial family's guardians. I'm sure it was difficult for you to accept, but there was no need for you to withdraw from your enrollment at the main campus. But this is a perfect opportunity. You can transfer to the main campus along with Rean. I can even have you stationed as my guardian. It would be a simple matter for me to over-rule the government's decision."
With those words "Kurt" is shocked speechless; inhaling sharply. But he's not the only one who reacts. Juna is yelling again, but this time it's not at her classmate but rather-- at the prince.
"Hey, you! Who do you think you are?! You're talking all big but you're wearing a uniform just like ours!" Cue Instructor Rean panicking and uttering a harsh "No, Juna--" But it's too late. Altina just calmly explains that he wears the uniform of the main campus and that he is Cedric Reise Arnor, Crown Prince of the Empire of Erebonia.
The lot of them talk a bit more but Cedric leaves shortly after with a short "I'll return to hear your decision another day. I expect a favorable reply, Instructor Rean Schwarzer."
Kurt is left looking confused, thinking to himself What just happened?
