Linnea wasn't surprised by this outcome at all – Canada didn't seem like someone who took rejection well. In any case, with her new demand, she crossed the last line, and the Reimi girl was no longer going to tolerate it. Everything has its limits.
“Listen, Canada, no offense, but I’m just not interested,” Nea’s voice returned to its former tone, the former softness was as if blown away by the wind. “Neither studying at your academy nor a career as an idol. I realized that this is not for me. I would rather defend the interests of Her Majesty on the battlefield and protect the people of the empire. So, there is no need to accelerate my training. I’m leaving.”
“Well, if there’s no interest, then there’s nothing to be done about it.

Go,” the idol waved her hand at Linnea as if she had lost all interest in her, “don’t worry, you will still have the opportunity to defend the interests of Her Majesty on the battlefield, as you wish.”
“Hmm?” A slightly surprised, but equally indifferent voice sounded behind her. “Weren’t you going to leave?”
