The courtyard exam site, which was originally filled with a tense atmosphere, had now become oddly silent.
Hyperion and Vivian both cast their gaze to the floor, unwilling to utter a single bad word about each other.
"..."
In this quiet courtyard.
Lanci's statement had shocked the two candidates waiting near them.
Although Lanci might not be aware of it himself.
But they felt that Lanci seemed to have a unique talent for controlling such stressful situations!
Even now, this isn't strictly a crisis since Lanci could have kept himself out of it initially; it's him who took the initiative to mediate!
This even made them have the urge to learn from him for a moment.
Isn't this more practical than spells?
Their expressions were soon noticed by Lanci on the other side.
Lanci, noticing the attentive gazes of the two candidates, responded with a nod and a smile.
Sure enough, engaging in such mediating deeds is likely to win respect, he thought.
