After the individual combat event for the first years ended, the potion crafting and beast tamers event of the first years took the stage simultaneously.

Aurelia appeared like her usual self, as if the events earlier hadn\'t affected her. Her calm demeanor and focus were evident as she worked diligently in the potion crafting event. Despite the tension from the crowd, she managed to secure her place in the finals alongside her rival, Nora.

The competition between the two was intense, each showcasing their exceptional skills and knowledge in potion making.

On the other side of the arena, the Beast Tamers Challenge was underway. Irithel, with her majestic fire salamander, Ignis, displayed remarkable control and coordination. Her bond with her beast was clear, and they moved as one, executing impressive feats that left the audience in awe. Alongside her, a boy with a formidable flying monster ascended to the semifinals.

His beast, a sleek and agile griffin, performed aerial maneuvers and powerful attacks, earning him a place in the next round.

Meanwhile, Aurelius was participating in a swordsmanship-related event with Ren. The two displayed their exceptional skills and technique, their blades clashing in a symphony of metal. The audience watched in rapt attention as they demonstrated not only their physical prowess but also their strategic minds. Each move was calculated, each strike deliberate, as they fought for a place in the finals.

In another part of the arena, Adrian was attending the Arcane Knowledge Quiz event. The atmosphere was tense, the contestants were deeply engrossed in answering complex questions about magical theory, history, and application.

Adrian\'s quick thinking and extensive knowledge were evident as he swiftly and accurately answered each question. He was close to finishing the semifinal round, his mind racing to stay ahead of the competition.

Everyone was busy and it wouldn\'t end since there were still other events waiting for them in the afternoon and evening.

Soon, all of them ended their events and went to the cafeteria.

The cafeteria was filled with the aroma of delicious, high-quality food. The school had spared no expense for the tournament, offering a variety of gourmet dishes, from savory roasts and delicate pastries to exotic fruits and decadent desserts, all for free. The buzz of excited conversation filled the room as students discussed the events of the day and anticipated the upcoming matches.

Aurelia was the first to arrive, her calm demeanor still intact as she selected a plate of grilled salmon and a side of fresh vegetables. She found a seat near the corner of the room, hoping to find some quiet amid the hustle and bustle.

Moments later, Aurelius and Ren, still animatedly discussing their recent swordsmanship match, joined the growing crowd in the cafeteria. Aurelius grabbed a hearty serving of steak and potatoes, while Ren opted for a lighter meal of chicken salad. The two spotted Aurelia and made their way over, filling some of the seats at the table.

Not long after, Adrian entered, looking slightly tired but satisfied with his performance in the Arcane Knowledge Quiz. He scanned the cafeteria for an available seat and noticed one table with three free seats. He made his way over with a plate of pasta and a glass of fruit juice, but when he approached, he stopped as he noticed who was sitting at the table.

\'Just my luck.\' Adrian muttered inwardly and glanced around and found only two free tables, one beside Emeric - whom he didn\'t get along with.

\'Then, let\'s-...\' Just as he was about to move to the second table with only one free seat, another student was one step ahead of him.

"Hmm? Adrian, is that you?" Just then, Aurelius who was about to talk to Aurelia noticed him and called out.

"..."

\'Guess I have no choice, it can\'t be helped.\' Adrian thought and turned to Aurelius and nodded and approached their table.

"Hello." He said and just as he was about to sit beside Ren, a figure went past him and took the free seat.

Adrian\'s lips twitched but didn\'t do anything as he recognized the figure - Kairen.

"What are you standing for? Take a seat," Ren said, noticing Adrian still standing.

Adrian sighed internally and sat beside Aurelia, who felt a surge of nervousness. She had promised to keep their reconciliation a secret and wasn\'t sure how to act.

Should she say hi? Or stay silent? It was fine before since they hadn\'t been this close after that day.

As she pondered, Adrian broke the silence. "Sorry," he said, sitting down.

"Hmm," Aurelia replied with a slight smile and focused on her meal again.

Ren and Aurelius, now newcomers were settled, turned their attention to Adrian and Kairen. "How did your events go?" Aurelius asked.

"Good," both Adrian and Kairen replied simultaneously before resuming their meals, leaving Ren and Aurelius to exchange a knowing sigh.

Just then, a gentle voice interrupted. "Excuse me, Sir Adrian, may I sit here?"

Adrian looked up to see two familiar faces. One was Irithel, the beautiful red-haired elf girl, and the other was her proud and somewhat arrogant fire salamander, Ignis. Ignis met Adrian\'s gaze briefly before turning away with a huff. Adrian held the urge to twitch his lips and eyes.

Then he turned back to Irithel. "Sure, you can sit freely," he said, moving slightly to make room for her.

Irithel gracefully took the seat beside him. "Thank you, Sir Adrian," she said with a warm smile, setting her tray down. She then greeted the others. The topic of their conversation became the tournament and the events they were participating.

"Right, thank you for your advice again Sir Adrian." Irithel smiled as she looked at Adrian. "It really helped me to win my earlier battle."

Adrian nodded, acknowledging Irithel\'s gratitude. "I\'m glad to hear that. But I only gave an advice, it was you yourself and your little guy who did it."

"Hehe, you are still as humble as ever," Irithel giggled with a cute smile. Ignis, hearing Adrian\'s compliment, puffed up proudly, eliciting a few chuckles from the table.

"You two seem close," Aurelius commented noticing their free conversation. He knew a little about Adrian\'s personality, he wouldn\'t talk with someone who he didn\'t like that much and way. "One even might think you two are going out."

"E-eh?!"
