"By the way, Miss Rei, that Crimson... Uhm, erm.. how to say this…" Sonya suddenly made a thinking gesture. Rei-Rei, on the other hand, perked up her ears, seemingly hearing something of her interest. Sonya, upon realizing what she wanted to say, continued saying, "Uh, right, I think he is truly the legitimate dark horse in this competition. He even beat the guy who is said to be the strongest male student in the Academy," said Sonya, out of the blue.
Then, suddenly, "R-Right?!" Sonya was taken aback by Rei-Rei's sudden enthusiastic reply. She also noticed her eyes were sparkling bright.
Rei-Rei continued saying, "He is like the main character in the books…" Rei-Rei was suddenly mumbling words. "From weakest to strongest… yes, yes, he's like that..." she continued and continued. A bead of sweat emerged on Sonya's face. In her mind, she thought, 'W-What's wrong with her?'
'Wait! D-Don't tell me…'
'No, it can't be!'
