A lesson in friendship and understanding for those who signed Michaella's (Levizia Starlight) petition.
— Alright, my dears, welcome to our special lecture. I think you understand the purpose of our gathering today, don't you? — The headmistress surveyed the class and stopped her gaze on one of the students. — Futaba, what do you think it's for?
—Oh, it's a shame Varya isn't with us, although maybe she wouldn't appreciate the imitation of her national cuisine...—But if you have a similar mindset, then why not? Oh, just don't tell me she's from some kind of pirate gang! 😨
— No, she's just from the blue-haired snobs. Look, Varya, for example, comes from Refitea, but she treats our culture with interest and respect, while this one looks at everything as if it's something second-rate... And what's most annoying is that she does it in such a way that you can't even object, because she's not directing this negativity at you personally.
"Why me? I need to answer..." The girl was very embarrassed to be here at the meeting as someone who had misbehaved, although it was obvious to her that everyone was guided only by good intentions. But she forced herself to show obedience and stand up to answer. — Your Highness, I think... You... We... In general, it's about upbringing... Friendship and understanding? — she finally managed to say.

—Mm, from the blue-haired ones... —Nira mumbled, eating soup. —Well, our Varya is really cool, there's only one of her kind. 😍 I don't envy you, friend! 😔 Maybe you should ask around and see if you can find someone else to share a room with? I heard that some of the boys also moved away from the newcomers. It will be further from the exit, but still... Do you want me to help you look?

But she forced herself to show obedience and stand up to answer. -- Your Highness, I think... You... We... In general, the problem is in education... Friendship and understanding? -- she finally found the words.
— Close, but not quite. Tell me, how would you feel if, after joining this academy, some of your peers wrote a petition to the director demanding your expulsion, citing your Refetian origin as the reason?

—Mm, from the Blue Vale... —Nira mumbled, eating her soup. —Well, our Varya is really cool, there's only one person like her in a million. 😍 Oh, I don't envy you, friend! 😔 Maybe you should ask around and see if you can find someone else to share a room with? I heard that some of the boys also moved further away from the newcomers. It will be further from the exit, but still... If you want, I can help you look...
— So, the new girl, and a foreigner at that, is trying to kick me out of the room? No way! Today it's the room, and tomorrow they'll take our jobs and try to impose their own rules in politics... By the way, have you seen her? What a cow!

"We have a student from Aoki here, but no one even thought about signing anything against her, because the problem isn't in her origin. No, it might be, but we're not talking about might be, but about what is definitely the case. However, will I tell this to someone who is under the influence of magic? Alas... It's all pointless." — I understand your question, she says guiltily. — It would be difficult and unpleasant, of course, and perhaps I would have to submit. "Well, yes... Would I stay in a place where half the people hate me for any reason, even an unfair one? I don't know how this wouldn't convince Levisia that Aliduum simply has no feelings, so there's nothing to worry about."
—So, what's happening? This newbie, and she's a foreigner, is trying to push me out of the room? No way! Today it's the room, and tomorrow they'll take our jobs and start imposing their own rules in politics... By the way, have you seen her? What a cow!
—And you're right! 👍 —Nira approvingly clapped her hands. —I think they're all compensating for something, these prejudices didn't just appear out of nowhere... Oh, I wish I had your determination, but I just don't like conflicts. By the way, about that, I don't know if Michaela told you, but there's another story brewing there... 😉 —the girl giggled. —But I really liked the other new girls, I won't lie. I got along well with Claudia and She...a, She-ey?... well, you've probably already met them in class, and Ladia seems like a harmless and interesting person too.
"It's good that you understand that." He walks around the room, handing out pieces of paper to those present. "We're going to talk about the petition that you're all familiar with, and I want you to write down what motivated you to take such action. After that, we'll discuss what we're going to do about it."

"Yes, Shea is very sweet, it's more fun in class with her, and we have a lot in common with Claudia. What about Michaela? Or are you talking about the petition? To be honest, I was a bit busy with my own things and didn't really pay attention to what she was saying."
“Yeah, it’s about the new demon, who, according to her, poses a great danger to all of us, so she was collecting signatures in support of his expulsion, so she could present them to our headmistress…”
– Ah, yes, exactly. Well, I wouldn't want someone *like that* to study with us either, but it's clear that admitting him was a well-considered decision by the administration, so signing such petitions is just attracting unnecessary attention to yourself.
