Under the shade of the pavilion, there Lillie and Ethan sat down, sipping on digestive tea as they enjoy the grandeur of the garden after the fulfilling breakfast.
"I'm glad we came here." Ethan said, an arm wrapped around Lillie's waist while the other held onto his tea. "Excluding the tiring task I have to do, the Academy offers great things I can enjoy with you."
Nestling onto his shoulder, Lillie's eyes were closed in contentment. "I could say the same thing. Days off like this has long been overdue."
The compound was now emptied, the assistants left to relocate to the main building and start their lessons.
"Remember that girl we helped in the forest?" Lillie shifted to place her tea on the table.
"Grandmaster Yang's granddaughter?"
Lillie nodded. "We happen to cross paths earlier when I went to collect the books Master requires. She wasn't anything like the old fool and Yang Hui."
