She pointed to me first.
"I believe we've already met before, Victor."
I nodded, prompting her to turn toward Lily.
"You must be Cadet Lily then. I'm sure you've already guessed it, but I'm Maki of the Sato clan."
Lily waved her off.
"You can just call me Lily. No need for formality here, Lady Maki."
Maki gave her a light nod before adding,
"Then you should call me Maki as well."
Lily let out a smile in return.
"Of course."
The Sato girl shifted her gaze back to me.
"The same applies to Victor."
"I was going to call you Maki either way."
'Lady my foot…'
I had a higher potential than her, and even my official potential was basically on the same level as hers. The only difference in our status now was the fact that she had a good upbringing.
There was no way in hell I'd be addressing her, or any cadet, as Lady.
Well, any cadet aside from Racheal, that is. But that was a very different case.
'She's scary.'
I'm a coward, so what?
