“Mira already left since he has to do something else.”
“…I mean, members other than Mira-sama.”
“After the seniors graduated, we haven’t decided anything yet.”
Most of the student council members Violette knew were in their third year. When Violette was still in her first year, there’s no one in her grade who joined the student council. When she was in her second year, only Claudia and Mirania joined it. It was understandable that the number of members would decrease every new school term.
“But student council should’ve accepted new members at this time, right…?”
Every year, the third-year students selected candidates while they were still attending the school. Most times, they would start handing over their tasks before they graduate. Even if the third-year students were delaying it, they should’ve accepted new members as soon as the new semester began.
As an outsider, Violette didn’t know much about the student council’s internal conditions, but the new members should be learning to get used to the student council’s tasks during this busy period.
And yet, there were only two people managing the whole thing right now… Even Violette could see that this was impossible.
“The selection criteria this year are strict.”
“Ah… I see.”
The prince became the student council president this year. Naturally, everyone would pay more attention to this matter more than usual. Considering how the amount of work had increased, Claudia would have to increase the quality of members required to handle the tasks.
“First of all, they need to be someone who will do their job without busying themselves over me.”
“That should be a precondition, shouldn’t it…”
Doing their job shouldn’t be the requirement, right? You could even say that it’s a necessary skill one must possess to contend for joining the student council.
Violette was amazed, but then she recalled what she had done to Claudia so far. Once she was convinced, she felt somewhat apologetic.
If Violette had joined the student council right now, she would only focus only on getting Claudia’s attention and do her job half-assedly… no, that’s still better. She might even do her tasks poorly and became a nuisance instead.
There was definitely a lot of that kind of people. And those who wished to work seriously got dispirited from such extreme people, getting pushed out to the radar.
Somehow… I’m sorry.
Violette didn’t do anything, but she used to be that kind of person too. As she apologized in her heart, she decided to do her best in her task. Not because she felt bad, but because the prince had entrusted it to her.
Even if she only had to confirm the data, she still had to take it seriously.
Violette gripped the fountain pen and reached out to take another sheet of the document.
