"Pardon me, but I have to take my leave now."
Raven Nightshade's deep voice echoed deeply among the three who walked together. They were surrounded by even more guards, but Beatrice, Charles, and Raven walked very closely together per their earlier arrangement.
"Standing in for the regular Head of Security has eaten into my schedule." Raven added. "I have a lot of work piled up for me to handle."
Charles Zellium nodded in understanding the instance he heard this.
"I get it. Apologies for taking your time, but as you know… it couldn't be helped." He added, a small smile forced on his youthful face.
"Yes, of course." Raven nodded.
It wasn't just the Head of Academy that was assigned to the Northern Border. A lot of important staff and powerful Instructors were dispatched as well. The Head of Security was one of those people, and with him being absent, Raven Nightshade had to take on his ceremonial duties.
"You may leave."
