Chapter 291: Mutation Studies

"Of course, it's because I also signed up for 'Mutation Studies', just like you."

Vivian, whose gaze had been fixed on Janna all along, walked straight past Marlowe-Haig and hooked her arm around Janna’s.

"Then why didn’t you tell yesterday?"

Seeing Vivian acting particularly "aloof" whenever there were others around, Janna couldn’t help but think, "Of course, it was to give you a surprise."

After mumbling that softly, Vivian pulled Janna along toward the dining hall.

"Are you close with him?"

Looking at Marlowe-Haig who had entered the cafeteria with them, Vivian asked Janna through telepathy, her tone slightly displeased. Being well aware of Janna’s nature, Vivian imdiately realized she shouldn’t have said that.

"Vivian, if you say sothing like that again, I’ll really get angry."

"Alright, I won’t say it anymore."

Seeing Janna’s eyes that betrayed no emotion, Vivian’s voice also beca much quieter.

"Marlowe, the two of us will go over there and save you a seat."

"Ah—okay."

After Vivian pulled Janna away, Marlowe-Haig, who could clearly feel Vivian’s hostility, kept his distance.

After all, as a "celebrity" of the Haig Family, many things about Marlowe-Haig had already spread among the circles of noble heirs.

And Vivian, being a mber of the Rose Family, surely knew the ins and outs of these matters.

"Janna, let’s sit here."

Because of those few words earlier in the cafeteria, which had left Janna slightly upset, Vivian remained quiet and didn’t dare speak carelessly.

Once inside the classroom, Vivian even moved quicker than usual, taking Janna to her usual seat and sitting down with her.

"Marlowe, there’s still a seat here. Do you want to sit with us?"

"It’s alright. Sitting behind you is fine."

Marlowe-Haig, who had initially wanted to agree, changed his mind upon seeing Vivian’s icy gaze paired with a polite smile, and chose to sit behind Janna instead.

"Principal Anthony probably stayed up all night doing experints again. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be here this early."

Hearing Marlowe-Haig’s voice from behind, Janna nodded in agreent.

Especially when she saw the dark circles under Anthony-Blackcrow’s eyes from lack of sleep.

"Okay!"

Seeing that Janna finally responded to her, the tension on Vivian’s face eased a little. Then, she imdiately pulled out three bottles of coffee milk from her extra-dinsional space ring and handed one over to Marlowe-Haig.

"Tha—thank you."

Looking at the coffee milk suddenly placed in front of him by Vivian, Marlowe-Haig was a bit taken aback.

But to his thanks, Vivian only nodded reluctantly and started sipping from her own bottle.

"What a child—"

Watching Vivian, who only acknowledged Marlowe-Haig reluctantly for fear of angering Janna, Janna sighed softly while peeling off the bottle cap.

In fact, what Vivian had said earlier in the cafeteria, telling her to "stay away from Marlowe-Haig"—

Back then, when Nia-Fla was frad, it nearly cost her her life.

Because of such experiences, and having grown up witnessing underhanded tactics, Vivian naturally preferred to keep her distance from Marlowe-Haig, wary of being exploited by schers—

For example, Marlowe-Haig, who was now in decline amidst his family's power struggle.

After all, as the eldest daughter of the Rose Family, Vivian’s every move was under secret scrutiny.

If she ever got tricked by Marlowe-Haig and rumors like "Rose and Haig" began to circulate, it would unnecessarily taint Vivian-Rose’s reputation.

However, things were different for Janna.

She was a civilian witch not affiliated with any wizard family. She was the most talented student at White Coral Academy—admired by many as a witch with nurous admirable qualities.
