The looming deadline weighed heavily on Emery as he realized he had just a little over 24 hours to fill the remaining three spots in Hall 120. Failure to do so would result in the disbandment of their hall, scattering all the acolytes to other halls across the academy. Unfortunatly, with most acolytes already committed to their respective halls, the task seemed daunting.
In their desperation, the attention of many acolytes turned to the silver-haired girl who had been a silent observer in their hall. Some began to treat her with extra attention, while others questioned her intentions.
"Don't you see how great our master is?" one acolyte urged, attempting to sway her. "There is no need to think anymore, join us."
Truthfully, Shinta was impressed by what she had witnessed during her time in this hall: Emery's hospitality, his formidable strength, his sharp wits, qualities that drew her interest and admiration.
