Isabelle sprang up from her seat with an infectious energy that filled the room. She strode purposefully toward Lillian’s wardrobe, her fingers dancing over the hangers as she searched with determination. Finally, her eyes lit up as she pulled out a stunning starry blue gown that shimmered under the light.

“Wow, Lillian! This dress is absolutely breathtaking! You have to put it on right now!” she exclaimed, her voice bubbling with excitement.

Even Elsie, caught up in the moment, rose dramatically from her chair, her eyes wide with astonishment. “Lillian, who would have guessed that you were the most glamorous among us? That’s the Starry Night gown! There’s only one of its kind in all of Dracovia, and you’re the lucky one who snagged it?”

Lillian’s gaze fell on the exquisite dress in Isabelle’s hands, and instantly, memories of Sebastian’s stunned expression from that day flooded her mind, making her heart flutter.

“A gift from a friend,” she replied softly, a hint of nostalgia in her voice.

Isabelle sighed, her tone turning wistful. “I wish I had a friend who gifted me gowns like that.”

Lillian chuckled, her heart warming at Isabelle’s envy. “Don’t worry, that person will come into your life one day. But for now, I’m going to change.” With a playful wink, she slipped into the bathroom, anticipation buzzing in the air.

When she finally stepped out, the looks exchanged between her roommates mirrored each other’s—pure, undeniable amazement.

Meanwhile, in the expansive auditorium—

The venue was as vast as a football field, bustling with energy and nearly filled to capacity. Faces illuminated with excitement, curiosity, and the thrill of new beginnings filled the space. Groups of students mingled, their laughter echoing as they exchanged stories and shared their hopes for college life.

Without a dress code to bind them, the hall transformed into a vibrant tapestry of sharply dressed young men and glamorous young women, each showcasing their unique style.

By the time Lillian and her friends arrived, most of the seats were already occupied, a testament to the eager crowd. They quickly found a spot and settled in, the air thick with anticipation.

Soon enough, the ceremony commenced.

Isabelle beamed with satisfaction. “Exactly the effect we wanted! Otherwise, it would be a shame to waste that stunning face of hers.”

Under the scrutiny of countless curious eyes, Lillian walked with a calm grace to the stage. Standing confidently at the podium, her gaze was steady, radiating poise and authority.

“Respected leaders, esteemed teachers, and fellow students, good day. My name is Lillian. You may have heard of me—whether through my academic achievements, my family’s reputation, the viral video online, or even the whispers circulating on the school forums. Regardless of whether the perceptions are good or bad, they are merely the starting point of our journey together.”

Today, I stand before you with great honor as your freshman representative. I won’t regurgitate grand ideas—we all understand the principles that led us to Capital University. What truly matters is not just the theory but the actions we take.”

Her voice resonated throughout the hall, filled with confidence and conviction.

In a shadowed corner of the auditorium, Eda cast a sidelong glance at Daylen, who was utterly captivated by the girl commanding the stage. A cold smile curled on her lips, filled with a mix of amusement and disdain. “What’s the matter? Still clinging to the past? It must be bitter, yearning for something that remains just out of reach. Too bad—she doesn’t even notice you.”
