Leylin brought very few things with him. His belongings only consisted of a water sack, a leather bag, a cross blade hung from his waist, and a crossbow slung over his back.
The acolytes fervently left the campgrounds under the guidance of the professors of their respective academies, and they gathered into individual groups based on their academy.
“Alright! Listen to me! Pay attention to the names mentioned next! Ennea Ivory Ring Tower, Wetland Gardens Academy…… All of you will board the dirigible on the right, numbered ‘332’. Don’t miss it! Professors, please take note of the number, and acolytes, follow your professors!”
“As for Mercifura Academy, Kerita Academy……Your dirigible is in the center, numbered ‘955’.” The voice continued.
“…… Abyssal Bone Forest Academy, Sage Gotham’s Hut…… Yours will be the one on the left, number ‘455’, don’t mix it up now!”
As Leylin finally heard Abyssal Bone Forest Academy, he could not help but to glance at the dirigible on the left.
As he approached it, he realised that the dirigible was simply too enormous. The aerostat gasbag at the top seemed like a gigantic rugby ball, casting its shadow on the ground.
“acolytes of the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy, follow me!” Green flames flickered in Dorotte’s eye sockets, and behind him were two figures, which seemed to be his servants or subordinates.
Leylin walked in the centre of the group and glanced around.
Under his keen observation, he noticed a few familiar faces from his travelling party. They also noticed him and smiled at him in response, also speaking to some fellows beside them. They all had excitement written across their faces.
At the far right, George waved vigorously when it was his turn to board the dirigible, and entered the dirigible.
“From today onwards, the acolytes will all go their separate ways!”
A hint of sadness surfaced in Leylin’s heart, but it was suppressed very quickly.
