Chapter 50
Chapter 50
She had many nosebleeds while staying up all night and stumbled a lot of times while walking on the street due to insufficient sleep.
After the sufferings, Lucy finally achieved all of her target amount of study.
As a result, she topped the midterm exam for the first semester of the first year, taking one step closer to the scholarship for the next semester.
Thanks to this, Lucy, who had little presence even though she was the top student, became a little famous among her peers as she was deprived of her freshmen oath on the day of the entrance ceremony by a male student who placed second.
She was invited by some unknown aristocratic girls to tea parties every weekend. Lucy, who hated being under awkward positions, refused.
Starting with ranking first place in the midterm exam, Lucy continued to maintain her high rank, and as a result, she was able to win first place in the final exam before the summer vacation approached.
She felt good at the thought of showing her family her report card with the highest grade in all subjects.
Thus Lucy spent her first summer vacation peacefully doing two things. The first was to watch her grandmother proudly show off her report card throughout the village.
The second was to recall the memories of years ago and make a medicine for Maram vine allergy.
Until just before the vacation, Lucy avoided Felix. Now, whenever she thought of what happened in the nurses office, she felt so ashamed that she wanted to hit her head against the wall. Still, she didnt have the courage to face him head on.
However, Lucy heard rumors that Felix tried hard to cover up the Limosium potion incident, which had almost turned into a big incident once the duke heard of it.
It was fortunate for Lucy. No matter how well the incident ended, if it had been revealed that she had put suspicious potion in the dukes successors locker, she would not have been able to remain in the Academy.
Feeling sorry about it, Lucy decided to make an allergy medicine for Felix. This time, she was confident that she would make it right without any mistakes.
After the summer vacation, Lucy returned to the academy and gave Adrian the allergy medicine. She didnt mention Felix in particular since she was sure he would share it with Felix. Adrian always took good care of his twin.
Even when the new semester began, Lucy still avoided Felix. Although a few months had passed since the incident in the nurses office, there was nothing she could do about her heart pounding and her face flushing every time she saw him.
She thought it would be better not to run into him at all than to look like a fool around him for no reason. While avoiding Felix like that, the rest of the first year passed by.

The season has gone round, and spring has come again. After winter vacation, Lucy returned to the Academy and entered a hectic new school year. This is because Lucy unexpectedly became the second-year manager of the book club.
Jemima had been nailed down earlier, saying, I dont want to do it because I think there will be too much work being a manager. Rita also refused, saying she was not confident, so she had to return the managerial position to Lucy.
Upon returning to the Academy, Lucy created a public relations magazine for the book club. She was exhausted from walking around the campus and posting promotional papers on every visible bulletin board. In addition, she had to conduct interviews for new members without a break.
Thanks to Adrians popularity, there were a lot of first-year applicants who wanted to join the book club. Lucy couldnt even walk properly in the hallway because she was so busy receiving applications from new students rushing at her like bees.
However, the large number of applicants did not mean that it was easy to recruit new members. Lucy knows working in the library is a hard work. With a mournful look, she could finally understand Adrians desire to have successful interviews with promising applicants.
Anyone who wants to leave?
Lucy asked about a dozen first graders who had passed the interview. Behind her was a pile of new books that had just arrived that day, showing off their enormous heights. Half of the successful applicants, whose faces were as pale as sheet due to its magnificence, quietly raised their hands.
Lucy nodded her head calmly at the expected result. She didnt think these aristocratic freshmen who applied in anticipation of the noble activity of library helper would be willing to accept physical labor.
When Lucy gestured for them to leave, the successful candidates, who raised their hands, rushed out of the library without looking back.
There were only five people left.
Oh, but theres still more time left, Jemima whispered to Lucy. She looked at the four first-year girls and one boy standing awkwardly with a pleased look.
And that boy, Noel, seems pretty cute. Jemima said quietly, glancing at the boy with brown curly hair and a mischievous face.
Lucy coughed, reminding Jemima to be careful, and then said to the newcomers, Welcome to the library. Since its your first time here, you probably dont know a lot of things, but dont worry your sunbaes will teach you well. I believe your strength will be a great help to the Xenomium Library in the future.
Its not a metaphorical expression, you literally have to use a lot of strength
The faces of the new members turned white once again when Jemima added the warning tactlessly. Their faces showed signs of regret.
Should I have just gone out earlier?
Lucy had the five newcomers sign the list for new members immediately before they could change their words.
As soon as the signature was completed, Lucy took a breather and said to Jemima, Show them how to organize the books for me. Ill give Adrian-sunbae the list.
At her words, Jemima patted the newcomers on the back and took them to a place where new books were piled up. Lucy left the library with the list after making sure Jemima wasnt attached excessively to Noel.

Lucy, who was looking for Adrian, stopped in front of a classroom. The Berg twins were standing together with their friends. However, Lucys face, as she looked at them, was filled with embarrassment.
The two Berg princes, who had been easily distinguished by the length of their hair, wore the same hats. Both had their hair hidden in their hats, so they could not tell who was Adrian or Felix.
Maybe Ill come back next time.
Lucy was in serious trouble. She was still running away from Felix. He seemed to have no recollection of what had happened in the nurses office, but Lucy was different. What happened then was so vivid like it just happened yesterday.
The feeling of his large hand that wrapped her face and the warmth that touched her forehead.
When she remembered the moment, Lucy felt herself stiffened. She was reluctant to step forward, afraid that she might act even more foolishly in front of Felix.
However, she remembered Adrians request. He had asked to hand over the list by today, and she had no choice but to slowly approach the backs of the Berg twins..
Umm She called carefully, and both looked back at the same time. When two pairs of blue eyes were directed at her, Lucy became stiff with tension.
Felix and Adrian looked more alike in close proximity. She thought it would be more fitting to call them doppelganger.
Lucy fell into a deep conflict. Her eyes twitched, wondering which of the two was Adrian.
It was then.
Oh, thank you.
Prince Berg, standing on his left, reached out to the list with a kind smile.
Lucy glanced down at the big hand that stretched out before her.
Oh, is this Adrian?
Strangely enough, however, she was unable to readily hand him the list. She felt something strange.
Lucy looked up and looked up again at Prince Bergs blue eyes. Obviously, he smiled as gently as Adrian, but his eyes were somewhat different. It wasnt the eyes of Adrian who looked at her straight and full of trust.
Lucy, forgetting that she had to hand over the list, looked blankly at the Prince, who was reaching out to her.
Blue eyes like a lake
What is fluttering in those beautiful eyes is not faith and affection for your beloved junior It was curiosity.
Lucy had seen such eyes before. It was when Felix looked into her green eyes and said they looked like an emerald.
A subtle look of mischievous and curiosity.
Adrian had never looked at Lucy like that. So it was clear that the boy, standing in front of her now, was Felix, not Adrian.
As soon as Lucy realized it, her heart began to pound with tension. It was the first time she had seen him this close since the moment Felix had pulled her in the nurses office.
Well, heres a list of newcomers Adrian-sunbae.
Lucy immediately handed the paper to the other Prince of Berg. All she could think of was to tell him this and leave.
Felix, dont pretend to be me.
Adrian, who received the list, blamed his twin brother for his childish pranks.
Felix frowned slightly. The gentle smile he had when he pretended to be Adrian had disappeared from his face. He now looked somewhat surprised.
