When cadets wanted to take on an academy mission, they had to visit the Mission Office—located in the administrative wing of the academy.
As Azriel and Celestina walked in, the first thing they noticed was the crowd. Multiple lines of cadets stretched toward desks where instructors sat, approving, assigning, and confirming missions.
Azriel groaned internally at the sight.
"Surely a prince and a princess are above waiting in line... right?"
He turned to Celestina with a look that screamed one thing:
I don't want to wait!
Unfortunately for him, Celestina crushed his fleeting hope with a single shake of her head.
"We're cadets in the academy. Unless you want to break the rules and intimidate them with our status, I suggest we wait in line like everyone else."
Azriel's shoulders slumped in disappointment, but he didn't argue. Without another word, the two joined the nearest line.
