Chapter 47. What is the commoner’s name?
The 20 minutes are over.
Students started gardening with various flowers.
“Hmm.”
Tale looked at the ugly blue roses in the vase.
“Hmm….”
I looked around and most of them brought at least three flowers or grass.
Tale was the only one who brought a single flower.
Ethan was placing five golden flowers that matched the color of her own eyes.
Alice was doing her gardening with a variety of small wild grasses.
Even the Kromhell in front brought a lot of colorful flowers that looked all kinds of expensive.
She looked at it and her own flowers looked so insignificant.
‘Is it too cold?’
Did I just bring one?
I was thinking about what to do, but then Professor Sophia approached from the side of Tail.
“It is a blue rose. Ho ho ho.”
She continued with a warm smile.
“It is impressive that there is only one rose.”
Sophia shifted her gaze to Tail and asked.
“Do you know the flower language of a blue rose?”
“No.”
I brought it just because it caught my eye. She didn’t know the language of flowers.
Then Professor Sophia lightly caressed the blue rose and opened her mouth.
“Miracle.”
Tail’s eyes widened.
“The flower language of a blue rose is miracle.”
A miracle.
Why do those words touch my heart so much?
Tail’s eyes were filled with ugly blue flowers.
Yes. Miracle.
Miracles are diverse.
The appearance, shape, and characteristics are all diverse.
It must be a miracle that an article written as a hobby accidentally becomes a hit.
It would be a miracle that he dramatically survived the crisis.
The breath she exhaled at the last moment of her life felt sweet.
A chance to find money in an old coat pocket on the way home from work and buy the bread your child wants to eat.
On a day of despair, on a day when you want to be comforted, when you look up at the night sky, there are so many stars as if they were pouring down.
Everything handed down by fate, not me, is a miracle.
No matter what shape it is.
Maybe.
‘The miracle may have already begun with entering this world and gaining a place….’
Maybe even if it looks strange, in the end, a miracle is a miracle.
By the time I thought about it, the gardening class was over.

It’s lunchtime, and Tail goes to get food with Eugene’s group.
“Spaghetti is coming out today! Strawberry cake for dessert!”
Ricky’s eyes sparkled as Eugene exclaimed excitedly.
“Strawberry cake looks delicious!”
The two ran happily with their arms crossed.
Tale, Alice and Ethan, who were following behind, laughed at the high tension.
At that time, Tail caught the notice of club recruitment.
‘Well, the beginning of admission is the time to join a club.’
Ethan approached Tail as he carefully watched the club recruitment announcement.
“Is there a place you want to go to?”
“Well….”
At that time, Eugene and Ricky, who had gone first, returned.
“What are you doing?”
“Club recruitment announcement?”
The two showed interest and looked at the club recruitment announcements.
“Oh. Are there any social clubs?”
At Eugene’s words, Ricky nodded as if he knew something.
“Yes. Excluding the student council, the most popular and famous club is the social club, ‘Black Fox’.”
A black fox?
Tale frowned at the name of the club he had never heard of.
“It’s kind of like a socialite, and all the aristocratic girls want to go here. Instead of never. They say they don’t accept men.”
Ricky’s eyes sparkled when he said that.
“Ah, the main lady among the founders of the Black Fox….”
Ricky’s words stuck in Tail’s ears.
“It must be Cecilia Duvir?”
“Ah….”
At the same time, Eugene and Tail’s eyes collided into the air.
Eugene’s green eyes were filled with worry.
Tale smiled awkwardly.
“That… I see.”
Ricky, not noticing such a tail, continued.
“Most of the opinions say that it was named because Cecilia-sama’s favorite animal is a fox. There are even rumors that the club room is raising a black fox….”
As Ricky’s words continued, Eugene took Ricky’s arm.
“Ricky! Come on, let’s go eat strawberry cake!”
“Huh? Ugh!”
As Eugene took Ricky, there was a tail at the end of her gaze.
Tail smiled at Eugene’s worried eyes.
It has already been five years.
I shouldn’t hang on to it any longer.
At that time, Alice, who was next to her, spoke quietly.
“You look very tired.”
… I?
Tale looked at her.
Alice passed her words as if she brushed her lightly.
“If you keep pressing it, it will explode at some point.”
The dark blue eyes that used to be cold have been filled with warmth since some time ago.
“I don’t know why. Do not put up with it.”
She left her last words and moved forward first.
“Because the human beings I know are selfishly the most important.”
It was just a random word.
Is it just an illusion that she turns around and tells her to take care of herself?
Tail stared at Alice, who followed Ricky and Eugene.
For some reason, Alice’s words seemed to have a lot of warmth today.

“Ki-i-i-!”
A black fox jumped up and landed on a girl’s lap.
A girl in her black fancy dress reached out and stroked her fox with her white hand.
“Kee-!”
The fox rubbed her face against the girl’s hand as if in a good mood.
The black hair looked very well maintained.
The fox saw the key ring on the girl’s bag and her eyes lit up.
The key chain was in the shape of a black fox, but it was very dirty as she had been carrying it for a long time.
The fox tried to hit the key chain with his paw.
However, the girl who already noticed it took her key ring.
“No. It is precious.”
As if upset, the fox cried, “Ki-in-.”
But the girl ran her purple hair through her hair and glared at her.
“Write.”
Then the fox sullenly raised her head on the girl’s lap.
In front of her, who soothed her fox, there was a table that looked like a work of art, as if it had been carved by an artisan.
There was not only a table in the room, but also all sorts of valuables.
Once there was a large chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
There were rare and expensive items on display that you wouldn’t dare touch.
This is the club room of the social club ‘Black Fox’, which looks classy at first glance.
The young ladies were huddled together at a long table in the middle.
The young girls who sip tea in an upright posture were all those who became members of the black fox’s club by overcoming the huge competition rate.
Rachel, the eldest daughter of Count Elaum, who produced the most priests and saints.
The second daughter of the Marquis Dina family, Terrieru, who produced the greatest knight commander ever.
Becky, the youngest member of Count Lehmann’s family, who is holding onto the culinary world.
Riello, the eldest daughter of Viscount Vedina, who is called the king of trade.
The daughters of families that would shake up all social circles were gathered in one place.
All those great young ladies were smiling ho-ho-ha-ha and looking at one side.
It was a purple-haired young lady with a black fox on her lap.
No matter how well you do here, if you get caught by that girl, it’s because it’s just an instant to go to hell.
At that time, Lady Riello of the Vedina family, a family that occupied the trading world, took a sip of tea and spoke to her.
“Did you know that a commoner became the top entrant this time?”
At Lady Riello’s words, another young lady smiled softly.
“That’s already a big issue.”
It meant that it was a rumor that had already passed.
“But did you know that?”
Lady Riello smiled.
“What is the commoner’s name?”
At her words, Terry Lou of the knight family crossed her arms and smiled.
“What do we do when we know the name of a vulgar commoner?”
“But that would be quite a surprise, wouldn’t it?”
Lady Riello elegantly put down the teacup.
“What a name….”
Her lips moved slowly.
“Te. Day. It is.”
“Oh!”
“Really?”
The young ladies took a quick breath and responded.
At such a reaction, Lady Riello narrowed her eyes as if satisfied.
That would be the case too.
“That name is the name of the black fox, the mascot of this place!”
Here, the name of the fox raised in the social club ‘Black Fox’ is Tail.
“What a coincidence.”
“What. It’s an undeserved name for a commoner.”
The young ladies burst into laughter.
However.
Tak.
The girl with her purple hair set down the teacup roughly.
At the same time, the ladies all shut up.
“Tell me again.”
A rough voice came out of the girl’s mouth.
Breathing excitedly, she looked at her young lady with Riel, who spoke her words.
The eyes that were as red as blood bound Lady Riello.
The bewildered Lady Riello froze.
“… Yes yes? Which one… ?”
“What was the commoner’s name?”
It was an arrogant half-word.
But no one was uncomfortable with it.
“That…. Tail…. Say.”
Lady Railo continued with difficulty.
At the same time, the black fox’s ears twitched.
As if he was calling himself.
The girl with purple hair didn’t answer for a while and bit her lip.
“No way….”
