The Moonlight Swordsman (XXVI)

After waking up, I went through my usual morning routine, even though I wasn't in my dorm back at the academy.

The place felt unfamiliar, but habits are habits.

And just as soon as I left my room, I ran into Yara.

"What...?"

She had just told me some shocking information.

"You heard me." Yara crossed her arms, repeating herself like she was talking to a clueless kid. "The match isn't happening until 10 p.m."

I stared at her, my surprise pretty obvious.

Damn it.

That was way later than I expected.

"Do you have any training rooms around here?" I asked, trying to keep myself busy instead of wasting the whole day waiting.

"Why? Bored already?" she smirked.

"Yeah." I nodded, not even trying to deny it.

I mean, what else was I supposed to do until the match started?

I honestly can't stay looking at my phone for a whole day.
