98. Celes’s Little Plan
From then on, Reina’s affairs were much less. On the surface, she was in charge of the school, but the affairs of Lekadis were not as many as she had imagined.
Reina had handed over the management of Lekadis to Sophia. She said that she still had two rather important “tasks” to attend to, but in fact, she was free and easy.
Every morning, she would act according to Guangying’s schedule. For example, what time to get up in the morning, and then, besides breastfeeding, all that was left was what kind of exercise to do.
During this period, besides looking at the various information tables sent by Sophia, Reina had nothing else to worry about.
Then, although she said she would not participate, she would still go to the office to find Calysia.
During this period, Calysia had actually fallen in love with the various “supplements” sent by Sophia, all kinds of precious flower petals, and also a “medicine” called [Withered Wood Crystal] that had been missing for thousands of years. It was said to be a medicine, but in fact, it was the fruit of a certain plant that looked like a gem. However, this plant was as precious as the red magnetic flower thousands of years ago and had gone extinct. Now, it was impossible to cultivate a new variety with only the existing fruit, so the price was unimaginably expensive.
“Reina, I’m so tired…” Calysia originally wanted to hold Reina, but unexpectedly, after seeing a large number of documents from Delgon in the office, she instantly lost her spirit.
“I told you so. Little Cal, don’t tire yourself out,” Reina said with a smile, while also hammering her shoulder.
As if yesterday’s events had become an illusion. Although she had exchanged some of her work, the two would still be together.
“Don’t underestimate me, Reina.” A few minutes later, Calysia had cheered up again, full of energy, and drank the water in her teacup in one gulp.
“By the way, can’t you hand these tasks over to others to complete? One person in charge is like taking the main brains of a country and splicing them together,” Calysia couldn’t help but say again.
“Hahaha, it’s not impossible, but I’m not very at ease, especially in this century.”
“Reina…”
“Hmm?”
Calysia raised her head with a mischievous smile: “Actually, I want to change my mind. Time is indeed very long. I will never dare to despise time again.”
“Hehehe… why don’t I just do it?”
“You’d better not.”
Even though she said that, Calysia still did it all.
Not considering the power of a vassal, in terms of computational ability, Calysia was no match for Reina, this “supercomputer,” but the weak Reina couldn’t compare to her, and her work efficiency was probably not as good as hers, which was why she was so proud.
The first time was under Reina’s explanation, and it took a whole afternoon, but this only made her more certain that her decision was not wrong. And at night, Calysia went to bed even earlier.

In the third month of the Eternal Night Era, all the students of Lekadis Academy had basically enrolled. The entire trial-operated Lekadis School was packed with people. Although it was a school, it was as lively as a city.
Celes also thought so.
She walked on the most crowded road, as if she were walking on Lekadis School’s own [Platinum Road]. Celes discovered that the first strange thing was the students’ uniforms.
To unify the uniforms, the school uniforms of each race were different.
For example, the human’s uniform was a shirt and a gray vest, trousers and a skirt, and a dark blue shawl. The blood race and the dragon race needed to practice retracting their wings, but the back of their clothes would still have a hollow design, usually covered by hair or a shawl. The elves’ and the humans’ were roughly the same, but to ensure that the elves’ skin could be exposed to the air, the sleeves of their spring clothes were cut off, and the women would be completely dressed in a dress of the same color, plus sleeves… The other beast-like races were just an enlarged version of the human’s uniform.
These uniforms were all hand-woven by dragon tailors. It was said that Mommy had bought a large amount of material to prepare these school uniforms, and had almost emptied the treasury.
And such an expensive design also prevented the students from being unwilling to wear the school uniform…
Wearing the Lekadis school uniform outside was an honor, especially for humans.
And Celes, wearing her usual maid uniform from the Dragon King’s Palace, walking on the street, was like an inconspicuous servant!
She, who was usually so popular among the dragon race, was not recognized by anyone!
So angry!
“Haa, haa…” Celes let out a long sigh.
Mommy had taught her to be humble, because the dragon race should not be on the same level as other races.
The feeling of “not being cared about” began to disappear when she entered the school building.
“Who is she?”
“Why is she wearing a maid uniform? Is she a cleaner?”
“Isn’t it class time soon…”
Being stared at with ostracizing eyes, Celes was not so surprised.
The word “cleaner” was quite interesting.
She greatly admired Mommy’s maid work.
Strictly speaking, she was indeed a cleaner in the Dragon King’s Palace.
Celes remained cold on the outside and did not care about these people’s gazes.
She just wanted to come to the school building to take a look.
To see what kind of school Mommy had invested so much time and energy in.
“Excuse me, who are you?”
At the corner of the third floor, a dark elf girl with golden hair blocked her path.
She was about 180 centimeters tall, with a slender figure and long, slightly curled golden hair. She was the type of big sister.
Celes, even with her dragon horns, was not as tall as her.
Behind her were a few dark elves, both male and female, all with admiring smiles.
“…”
“Our cleaners are not allowed to enter the school building at this time.”
“Is there such a rule, Miss Elf?” Celes had done her homework before setting out.
As Celes retorted the elf girl, more and more people began to gather around.
But most of them didn’t say much, just watched.
“Do you know whose school Lekadis is? This is a school jointly founded by the Dragon King and Miss Elena. What I can’t stand the most is a country bumpkin coming to this kind of classroom.”
Before Celes could say anything, another male elf reminded her:
“Look, Diana, this person is wearing a maid uniform. Could she be a servant from some family?”
“A servant has no right to enter the school building. And besides, have you forgotten who I am?”
Saying this, the elf girl began to boast, pointing to her chest and saying:
“Miss Diana is Miss Charlotte’s cousin,” one of them echoed.
“You all know who Charlotte is, right? She’s the number one person under Lady Isabella!”
“Yes, I even saw her in the newspaper last time…”
“Don’t we see Lady Isabella often? To think she’s Charlotte’s cousin. She actually came to this school too…”
“Isn’t she the one who ranked ninth in the entrance exam?”
A spotlight seemed to be on Diana.
While she was still blushing and explaining, “It’s not that much of a hassle. Actually, I don’t need to use my status to get into school…”
At this moment, Celes tilted her head, sighed, said nothing, and immediately turned to leave.
Seeing this, Diana was both anxious and angry, and pointed at her back, saying:
“Stop!”
