S-Grade

The journey to their academy continued. It took a while to wait for the keeper to go inside and tell them to eat inside the camp.

Already 3 times, they halted their carriage, went out from it, and ate.

It wasn't a bad journey as they managed quite fully by eating and sleeping in a carriage afterwards.

Takeuchi feels they would do that forever until they manage to arrive at their destination, but he seems wrong.

This time, once again, the carriage came to another halt.

The keeper opens the door to the carriage once more, his eyes glowing dimmingly in the early morning light.

His presence was commanding, and the pupils straightened up instinctively.

"Prepare yourselves," the keeper said, his voice filled with authority. "Now get out."

The soft hues of the morning light cast a gentle glow on the surrounding landscape, revealing the faint outlines of a forest and distant mountains.

The pupils quickly straightened themselves up.
