"Those decorations sure are nice!" Full of good spirits, Kaisha pulled Fen's hand as she moved through the street almost jumping. Even though the incoming period of assessment during which they would fight for the better slots for the event was looming over their heads, this energetic girl made it a point to spend some leisure time with the young arcanist. "Aren't we partners?" That was her only response whenever Fen attempted to push this wasteful proposition away. Despite what he said to Firo, he…-

Returning to his senses, Fen looked around. For him, the entire situation was actually quite long, yet just a single sweep of the surroundings was enough to prove that the time in the real world seemed to just stop. "What happened?!" Instantly falling towards him, Firo buried her knees into the ground, trying to look for any injuries. "It's okay… It's okay…" As soon as the first lie came out of Fen's mouth, the memories of what he learned just now, returned. "Once you properly fire your blood,…

"As I said, it won't work." Sitting down on the grass, Fen crossed his hands on his chest and closed his eyes. "If you think you have it bad, imagine attempting to ignite it for years, only to learn you would never do it properly!" Not taking Fen's attitude, Firo stood above him. The fingers of her right hand were gripping surprisingly hard, wooden handle of the floor-brush. "You said it several times already." Ignoring the outburst of the girl and the mute threat of her makeshift weapon, Fen waved…

"What…" Shaking his head, Fen could feel his consciousness returning to its usual place in his body. After this silly attempt at clearing his mind failed, the young man rested his head against his open palms, trying to make sense of everything that he just saw. "When did the visions start?" For some reason, as soon as Firo realised that Fen was back to his senses, she instantly asked a very specific question. Yet, the problem was, Fen had absolutely no idea how to describe it! "In the throne room……

"My King, as of today, all the requests and pledges that we made during our vow, are now fulfilled." The huge chamber was filled with people. On one side, an orderly group of lining up men in white. At the opposing end of the room, a rowdy crowd of some kind of officials, surrounding the majestic throne, with a plain figure resting on it. "To think that my own guard would raise up against me one day… Wasn't I a good father to you all?" Barely stopping his voice from cracking, the royal figure on the…

This sentence… It was too on the spot for it to be yet another Firo's mischief. Just the momentary looks that Fen could have on her face as she violently shook him, made it clear that the girl in front of him, was no longer the same clumsy and nasty maid that Fen met in the archarity. The clarity in her eyes, the sheer determination that oozed out of her made the young man realise that while he had his own aims and complicated history, the same could be applied to literally anyone else he met in the…

"Come on, just a little bit more…" Kaisha's duel took a tool on her body. While she didn't end up injured by any means, with how she exerted all of her strength at once back then, carrying lifeless Fen still posed a challenge for her. Yet, it wasn't as if the young man didn't realise what was going on around him. It wasn't even as if he was unable to move. Would he wish for that, his limbs would move freely, even despite the extreme exhaustion. It was just that… Back when he combined several…

"Just like before. Take your time to prepare yourself, and once you will be ready, do your best!" Sending an encouraging smile to Fen, Stiel pointed at the place where Kashia tragically lost just a moment ago. No matter how much the young man tried to discover what this feeling was, for some reason, just the thought of what just happened was enough to put him on the edge. Decisively stepping into the empty area at the front of the class, Fen eyeballed his opponent. A relatively young man for a veteran.…

"It's lovely to see you react like that." Openly smiling with glee, Stiel looked over the class before finally softening up his expression and raising his hands in a defensive gesture. "Don't you guys worry. I will make sure that he will remain safe no matter what you do, while he will ensure that no harm will come to you. There are just some things that cannot be taught unless you go at it without any restraints. And since you guys are standing already, how about you give it a go, Kaisha?" Right off…

"Argh… All this commotion and preparation are so annoying!" Sitting in the usual spot of hers within the pastry shop, Kaisha continued to swing her legs in the air. As she complained about the situation in the city, her spoon continued to nibble away at the new cake that the shop-owner came up with recently, creating a commotion in the town on par to the arrival of the royal legate. If not for the relatively steep price of the novelty, then the royal family of the empire would learn what does the real…
