"And what would that be?"
Xander grinned.
"You two, would have to repeat the same feat this year. Except, I've been allowed to participate."
Edmund stiffened for a brief moment.
Emily noted the strange reaction, taking tiny bites of her food.
After all the time they'd spent in Tenebris, she'd come to appreciate the taste of cuisine back on Earth now more than ever
Edmund could barely control his excitement.
" So it's finally happening, huh..."
Ever since the altercation with the rogue group of Takented in Zolaris, the three of them hadn't had a chance to go head-to-head again.
From what Edmund had observed, Xander was every bit as impressive as his reputation claimed him to be.
As one of the youngest novices in existence, he undoubtedly had the startling potential to become one of the youngest maestros.
Beside him, Warren wore his usual impassive expression but deep down Edmund was sure he was excited as well.
