What was Lumine supposed to do in this situation?
From the very moment they entered the forest, they had already started fighting among themselves over who would take the lead.
The blonde-haired girl, Lisa, and the bulky, tall guy with auburn hair, Leonne, had no objections. In fact, they even favored Lumine as their leader.
But the problem wasn't with those two—it was the other two.
Max Blackthorne, with his short black hair and piercing purple eyes, stood as an heir to the Blackthorne Clan, one of the lesser clans allied to the Great Dusk Clan. He refused to follow Lumine or anyone else, insisting he should be the leader. Ranked 16th among the first years, his arrogance radiated. And then there was the girl. Anastasia. A cold, aloof figure who stood at the same height as Max and Lumine. Her long white hair, resembling the snow-capped mountains, contrasted sharply with her piercing dark blue eyes—the depths of the ocean itself. Ranked fifth among the first years.
