Preliminaries [1]

"Today is July 24. All of you know what that means right?"

Vanessa walked around the podium, staring at each of her students' bewildered faces.

The fact that they had no idea made her sigh in disbelief.

"Haa… Do none of you read the Academy's curriculum?"

All of a sudden, a certain student raised their hand.

"Raven?"

It was Raven.

Standing up, all eyes fell on Raven. Even Brandon wasn't an exception.

"This week is the preparation for the preliminary exams for next week."

Raven nodded to himself with a smile after uttering those words.

What a teacher's pet.

The bewildered gazes of the students contoured into a fearful expression.

And then…

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck…"

"Shit, I haven't prepared."

"Does anyone have the past test questionnaires from the second years?"

Chaos ensued. 

A sudden wave of panic swept through the lecture room like wildfire.
