After the eventful evening wherein the huge group of onlooker priests outside my villa saw me carry Clarence inside my house, I decided to push through with my plan of diverting attention away from me. If you ask me how, well, I just have to pick one out of the 40, right?
I sent Clarence to his room on purpose for everyone to see, After that day, I did not avoid him inside the academe anymore. I don't mind talking to him or even sitting beside him during classes. He still kept a respectful distance with me, never acting coy or flirty whenever I am around.
As for the other priests, I can befriend them, sure. I just don't want anything beyond that. At least for the time being and it is not likely I like any one of them in particular.
