Chapter 10

"Let us start the tour, shall we?"

Henry took my hand in his and pushed his way to the front of the throng. Jasper and his younger sister stayed behind, quietly squabbling by the bulletin board.

"Aldervolf University is one of the top universities in Volfenheim and in the world," Jade was saying as we walked through halls and lecture rooms, museums, and other historic places inside the university. "It was home to the greatest scholars that ever lived, including Marion the Great, Lord Volfenheim's first-born son and heir to the throne."

"Are to improve society by pursuing education, learning, and research at the highest levels of excellence. Giving people the right to think and express themselves freely, as well as the right to be free from discrimination. This is why we are very proud to be the first ever university to open its doors not only to human students but to Occults as well."
