Things were finally starting to heat up... because the ranking matches were just around the corner.
For cadets of Velcrest Academy, this was more than just a friendly competition. It was war—clean, organized, and sanctioned by the instructors, but war nonetheless.
This was where reputations were built. Where hierarchies shifted. Where someone who'd been ignored all semester could flip the entire table with one well-placed spell or punch.
For a lot of cadets, this was the beginning of their actual academy lives. For others, it was a nightmare dressed in training uniforms.
And for me?
It was the perfect opportunity.
...But it doesn't mean I was going to obsessed with it...Like everyone.
What matters me most was the peace....and currently I was getting that peace that I ...rarely found in this chaotic academy life.
