Dear Clark,
I hope this letter finds you well. I owe you an explanation and a sincere apology for not being there when you woke up. Please understand that my absence was not intended to cause you any distress.
As you know, the journey of being an Arcadian master is one filled with trials and quests for greater power and mastery. To continue growing and to better support you and our comrades, I embarked on a quest to obtain my second spirit ring. The opportunity arose suddenly, and I had to seize it before it slipped away.
I set out before dawn, guided by my Family, who had discovered a rare Arcadian beast in the Crystal Grove that could provide the perfect spirit ring for my Martial Spirit. I regret not informing you of my departure. The decision was made in haste, with the sole intention of returning as quickly as possible. I wanted to surprise you with my new abilities when i get back, let's have a sparring match okay?
Clark, your well-being and trust mean everything to me. I promise to communicate better and to ensure that you are never left in the dark again. Please forgive me for any worry or inconvenience my actions may have caused.
I will successfully obtain my second spirit ring, and I feel stronger and more capable than ever. I am eager to demonstrate my new abilities and to continue our journey together, stronger and more united.
Thank you for your understanding and patience. I look forward to seeing you soon and making up for the time lost.
With sincere apologies and warm regards,
Elizabeth
********************
Elizabeth was reluctant to leave Clark alone, after a year they are always together no matter where they went, the only times they were apart is when Clark is studying with Satoru and Elizabeth at Class.
She sighs and leaves the room quietly.
3 hours later, 8 a.m
Clark opened his eyes,
"Phew i still can't break through"
He stood up from his bed and looked at Elizabeth's side and he saw that she was not there,
"Where is she? Did she get up earlier than me? HAHAHA"
Clark walked to the kitchen to drink some water and he saw there was a paper on the table and he picked it up.
He saw the letter,
"Oh she broke through level 20 now HAHAHA okay i will be waiting for you" Clark said and put the letter in his nightstand and walked to the kitchen to drink water and prepared to go to his Master.

Clark walked in his office as they prepared another lesson to discuss.
"Let's Start little Clark" Satoru said to Clark as he prepare his marker and board.
Clark nods and prepares to listen again.

At the same time.
Elizabeth, who was in the carriage, was looking at the view. She was on her way to go back to that place.
There were two people in front of her. Two strong Arcadian Masters.
"This journey back to that 'place' is approximately 5 days, Her majesty the Empress is expecting you, Saintess." one of the Arcadian Masters said.
Elizabeth just stayed silent and didn't respond, just nodded.

Back to Clark.
Gojo Satoru's Private Office.
7 p.m
"That's it for today little Clark, i'm sure you're very tired on today's lesson, come back for tomorrow" Satoru looked at Clark
Clark just nods and leaves the room to go back to his dorm.

Dorm 7
Clark arrives at their dorm and sees that it was quiet for the first time. Everytime that Clark goes back to their dorm, Elizabeth always goes to him at the door of their room.
But today was quiet, he just slept in his bed and didn't meditate.
Half a month later.
'It's been half a month and she still hasn't come back' Clark said while staring at the view of his dorm.
Chapter Ends.
