Chapter 316: The Past

The night was profound.

Colin strode quickly along the Academy's road as the chill breeze softly blew.

In such cold weather, the faintest warmth of breath would instantly turn into mist.

Glancing around, he found the broad road unexpectedly barren, with only himself walking alone.

Indeed, he seldom visited the Academy at such a late hour.

Continuing down the road for a while, he arrived at the residence of Atbolde.

Colin tried to take a step forward and felt the familiar resistance... It seemed that Nado had already been restored.

He smiled faintly, used a witchcraft trick, dispelled the barrier, and stepped inside.

Passing through the trees, he entered the garden, which remained a desolate scene.
