A van was parked in front of Martial Redemption Dojo, its engine idling loudly.
"…Do we have everything?"
Kiernan asked, glancing around at the group of students gathered inside the van, and they checked their stuff one more time before nodding.
Today, they were starting to head to Real Rokyo in the van, and it was about a one-day-long road trip.
"Good luck, everyone."
The rest of the students, who were going to stay behind, wished them luck and watched as Kiernan slid the van door shut.
Aoi waved her hand from the passenger's seat and then noticed that Jock wasn't waving them goodbye like others.
He was over by the corner, punching the sand, and looked completely absorbed in his own little world.
In that moment, Kiernan climbed to the driver's seat, looked at Renette with a knowing look, and then drove off.
He told Renette to keep an eye on the place, as they had made some enemies, and some foolish ones might try something while they were gone.
