Chapter 40. Reconciled.
"I don't need to explain why I called both of you here," Wistoria said calmly as she raised her hand, the reason she was doing this was really simple, she wanted to see the prowess of Kirin against someone of his own rank and also to see that Seth was made off, if he was good enough, she would take interest in him.The two of them faced each other, Bokken in hand, in truth, this was the first time that Kirin would ever face off against Seth, it had never occurred to battle against each other, because it always made sense for them to get enough rest as possible to kill the next monster that came their way.Kirin's eyes darted between Wistoria's raised hand and Seth, Seth knew of his flaws and skills, he also knew that Kirin could only use one element, that one element he was very proficient in."Start" Wistoria's hand swung downwards as if slicing the air.Seth acted first, unlike Kirin who could use only one element, he could use all as many as he had mastered, including lightning.He

Footsteps sounded behind Kirin, he turned around and looked at Wistoria walking towards him, she unfolded her arms and clapped thrice."Good, very good" she smiled at Kirin who looked away from her. To him this didn't feel like a victory, just a win, a mere win, he felt no pleasure in it, nor did looking at Seth's unconscious body bring him any sense of relief, he simply just felt empty."Why the long face, you won," Wistoria said as she stood by his side."It doesn't feel... right" Kirin whispered, he was right of course, this was the first time he and Seth had ever fought and what made it so painfully mundane was the reason for the fight, he wasn't even sure what it was.Wistoria watched him for a bit before she walked away from him towards Seth who was still unconscious, she summoned water from thin air and surrounded Seth.He looked like he was in a blue bubble, suspended from within, the blue bubble of water shone brighter as it mended the injuries and stitches around Seth's body
Chapter 42. Departure.
"We're gonna be late, hurry up" Kirin shouted as he lifted his bag across his shoulders, in the past two weeks he had been here, he had trained over and over again with Seth, they had significantly gotten stronger not because they fought themselves, but because they both went against Wistoria and had their asses handed to them every single time.Although it pained Kirin that he had never won a single fight against that mad woman, he was also happy that he could learn some skills from her.She wasn't here to see them off, but that didn't matter, they had been given admission into The Academy.The Academy was a renowned warrior school, funded by the Emperor himself, it was filled with nothing more than Nobles and the likes, children from high families gathered there to train and become fully-fledged warriors after three years.Some have the opportunity of joining the government ranks while others prefer to join the military, or go back to their families and start a business or lead the

"Are you sure we're in the Central Alliance?" Kirin asked with a low tone as they both walked the streets, Kirin's expectations were crushed, he expected to see the beauty and art he saw in The Water Clan but instead, he was here looking at the slums and beggars that filled the streets, he wasn't sure what to make of them so he ignored them, even when they tried coming to beg him."Look ahead" Seth pointed out, just beyond the houses and the shacks of houses where people lived was another wall, this one didn't seem as big as the one outside had been but it was impressive nonetheless."Is that...the end? Is this it? The entire famed city?" Kirin turned to Seth demanding an explanation but Seth simply laughed as he smacked Kirin on the head."No you fool, the wall has a certain curvature, that's the second wall leading into the center of the City."So... We'll have to go through another gate then?" Kirin asked tiredly, he was already feeling demotivated after going through the ordeal of
