Hearing Ronald's question, Claudia nodded immediately:
"Exactly, just as you're thinking."
"Fortunately, the spot where you climbed over the fence is this little garden that was added later; if you had gone further towards the student dormitories, the defensive spell's detection mechanism would have discovered your intrusion right away."
At this point, the smile that had been on the girl's face completely vanished.
Taking two steps toward Ronald, she shifted the book she was holding in her arms to her side, and her tone became very serious as she continued:
"Ronald..."
"From my personal perspective, I still advise you not to do anything too outrageous. Wildering isn't just any ordinary academy."
However, faced with Claudia's serious tone, Ronald's stance didn't change at all; instead, he responded resolutely and right away:
"I'm very sorry."
"Regarding this matter, I have reasons that compel me to investigate."
