"You're going to make a hole in my head with that bullet? Don't joke, if you do that won't you also be punished by the academy?," asked Charlos.
"Punished? It seems like you don't know, huh? One of Elevrad's duties is to enforce the rules in this academy and Elevrad is given permission to commit acts of violence if when enforcing the rules there is an incident where the perpetrator who violates the academy rules turns around to attack or threaten or even if necessary directly execute the perpetrator, like what happened now," said senior Nadine.
".....," Charlos was silent and felt scared.
"How about you surrender and not fight back? hand over the money you took from the man lying down," said senior Nadine.
Charlos followed senior Nadine's orders and handed over the money bag they took to senior Nadine.
"Now you better leave this library with your friends and don't fight back," said senior Nadine.
"Tch, okay," said Charlos.
Senior Nadine let go of Charlos but she kept her mini gun pointed at him just in case he suddenly attacked again. Charlos and his friends slowly left, passing me and Leandra who was hiding behind me. Before they passed me, their gazes were always directed at me. A sharp gaze that depicted someone who was upset and wanted revenge. After they passed me, they continued walking towards the stairs without even turning back to look at me again. And after that they left the library.
"Excuse me, may I ask you to help me take this student to the treatment room on the 2nd floor?," said senior Nadine to a group of male students who had been watching the commotion we caused.
"Okay, we will help carry the student," said one of the students.
"Then please give him this money bag later," said senior Nadine.
"Okay," said the student.
"Don't try to take this money bag," said senior Nadine.
"I know, I don't want to feel shot by your gun," said the student.
Senior Nadine then handed over the money bag. Then the male students began to carry the student who was lying down to take him to the 2nd floor.
"All of you, I apologize for causing a commotion in this library. Since the problem is over, you can continue your activities in this library without being disturbed anymore," said senior Nadine while bowing.
Hearing senior Nadine's words, the students who were initially watching the commotion began to leave to continue their activities in this library. I looked around and no one was looking at us anymore. When I looked around, I just realized that the bookshelf that was hit by Charlos was not damaged or fell at all, the books were still on the shelf. Either it was previously damaged and had been repaired by some kind of Artifact or it was not damaged at all since being hit by Charlos.
Then senior Nadine approached the two of us.
"Are you two okay, Leandra, Rid?," asked senior Nadine.
"I'm fine, but by the way how does senior Nadine know my name? Haven't we never met before?," I asked.
"I asked about the person the chairman fought in the first year arena to Miss Gretta because I know the person the chairman fought. And it turns out I just found out that your name is Rid Archie, the person who got perfect scores on all three entrance exams. Even though on the first day of the new school year, we met in the morning. I should have asked your name then," said senior Nadine.

"Well, I remember when you dropped your potato, that was when we first met," I said.
Senior Nadine was exactly like Irene, they both showed no expression when talking.
"By the way, senior Nadine, why did you let the four students go? Didn't you say you wanted to enforce the academy's rules?" I asked.
"I did let them go but don't worry, I will still report this incident to the chairman and the academy. Incidents like this often happen in quiet places where no one else will see their actions. You should also avoid places like this so you don't become a victim of blackmail like the student earlier, you too Leandra," said senior Nadine.
"Y-yes, m-miss," said Leandra.
Senior Nadine realized that there was something unusual about Leandra's attitude, she seemed afraid of something.
"What's wrong Leandra? Why do you feel scared?," said senior Nadine.
"N-nothing," said Leandra who was still hiding behind me.
"Did those four people do something to Leandra?," asked senior Nadine.
"I will explain the chronology in more detail. At first I wanted to stop the four of them, then the four of them came to me. After that Lea came and asked me not to interfere with their affairs because maybe Lea was afraid that something would happen to me considering that the three of them were third-year students while I was a first-year student. Then they realized that Lea was an elf and they said that Lea was my slave and considered Lea to always serve me every night. After considering Lea as a slave, they wanted to borrow Lea and said they would ignore my actions when they saw them extorting. But I immediately kicked one of them and after that the commotion started," I said.
"I see, besides extortion, they also discriminate against other races. Their punishment will be even heavier if I report this," said senior Nadine.
Meanwhile, senior Nadine was still staring at Leandra.
"You don't need to worry, Leandra. I will take care of the students and as a precaution so that you don't experience something like that, you better not travel alone and avoid deserted places," said senior Nadine.
"O-okay, Miss Nadine," said Leandra.
"Then, I want to report this to the chairman first and then report it to the academy. Rid, please take her to Lily or Irene," said senior Nadine.
"Okay, she's my friend after all," I said.
"Then I'll take my leave," said senior Nadine.
Senior Nadine then went to the stairs and left the library.
"Calm down Lea, there's no need to be afraid, they've already left, let me accompany you to meet Lily or Irene," I said.
"Rid, I apologize once again for laughing at your dream," said Leandra.
"I told you that I have forgiven you about that," I said.
"The reason I laughed at your dream is because of this. You heard what they said earlier, right? They said I was a slave, well that's not wrong. The Elf race and any race other than humans are slaves in this kingdom, not only other races, even humans themselves are slaves in this kingdom,"
"Actually, at first I was also a slave. I came from a village in the Elf country, Seleria, which is south of the San Fulgen kingdom. The new king of that country suddenly imposed high taxes on his people. People who couldn't pay the taxes would be sold as slaves to other kingdoms. My family was one of those who couldn't pay the taxes. And in the end we were sold as slaves. Luckily, my family was bought by the Duke of San Lucia's family. We were freed to become slaves and given decent jobs and we were also paid for our work. My father and mother also worked at the Duke's residence. Not only my family, but the Duke of San Lucia's family also employed other races properly,"
"But when they said that I was a slave to serve, I became afraid. I imagined what it would be like if my family hadn't been bought by the Duke of San Lucia's family. Maybe I would have ended up as the slave they said earlier. I kept imagining that and that's why I'm scared," Leandra said.
"I just found out about this," I said.
"This kingdom is a human kingdom, so it's natural that they look down on other races as slaves or something. Other kingdoms like the Elf and Demi-Human kingdoms also look down on other races that are not from their race. Then you said that your dream is to make the world one and bring peace to this world? Ignore the matter of angels and demons first, uniting the world means you want to make many kingdoms like that unite? That's why I laughed and said that it's impossible, their attitude towards other races is like that. Well, although not all of them act like them," Leandra said.
"That's why I need an important position in this kingdom. If I have an important position, I have the influence to change the rules in this kingdom or at least I can change the views of the people who look down on other races. After changing this kingdom, I can apply it to other kingdoms as diplomacy from this kingdom," I said.
"Maybe you can do that, but of course it's not easy to do that and there must be those who disagree with your dream. How do you deal with those who disagree with your dream?," Leandra asked.
"You're right, there must be those who disagree with my dream of uniting this world. Actually I prefer a subtle way, which is to approach them, but if a subtle way can't be done,........ it seems the only way left is to get rid of those who disagree with my dream," I said
