Esna's arrival on Kreiz and acceptance into the Royal Academy went without a hitch.
Normally no one would have paid any mind to a transfer student who suddenly showed up at the beginning of the school year, however, when that student was placed in Class A without taking any exams; combat or academic, there were bound to be rumours.
The second-year class A students who were mostly children of the Devildom's nobles and lesser royalty felt that a girl from a random backwater planet being placed in the same class as them reduced the prestige of the class and filed a petition to the school to have her removed.
Many of the Class A students also agreed with this, until she challenged the Rank 1 publicly and defeated him without breaking a sweat, that is.
The rank one in the second year was an intermediate stage master however, he was easily defeated by the inferior stage Esna.
Her words after defeating him incited the anger of many other students.
