Mina, who was headed to the direction of her dorms, turned to whoever was calling out to her. It was Koriyama. One year her junior age-wise, but had been at the institute one year longer than her. However, they were in the same classes, and their grades were very close together. He had even scored higher than her in a few. She didn't begrudge him that. He was very intelligent, diligent and capable, but it did annoy her that she didn't have a clean sweep of top marks. This year, she would have to work harder.

His offer did seem appealing. Her room could wait. She had, after all, given instructions for it not to be changed, altered, or even entered unless for cleaning purposes over the summer. The institute followed these demands. Even in a place as unique and amazing as this, the Kasuke name had clout. It would be wise to get a closer look at this year's new students and what they could do, and familiarise herself with anyone worth keeping an eye on, or avoiding. However, there was one thing about the offer that she could not accept.

"Don't call me by my familiar name, Koriyama. But I suppose it would be useful to watch the new students' assessment test. I have nothing better to do."
