The next day.
After sleeping well, Almark realizes that his body is stretching and his head is starting to work with it.
Concentrating in the room with Mars' wand, the sharpened magic gathered immediately at the tip of the wand.
I tried using the lamp technique.
At the tip of the cane, there was a dazzling light that could no longer be called a flame.
"Okay."
Almark nods alone.
Magic is much easier to control than before you rest.
I'd like Miss Ilmis to resume her majoring today, but hurry is forbidden.
Dr. Ilmis also told me not to hurry, and the words of Seraha yesterday.
Serrah said he wasn't anxious about me.
I don't know for myself, but that's what I usually look like from around me.
After all, we've lost sight of ourselves here.
Almark finally figured it out.
The teachers and Wendy were right.
The majoring holiday is the last of its kind today.
Work with Ain to resolve Zap's question and do your best again tomorrow.
"Good morning."
The road to the school building.
Look, something good happens in the morning when you're feeling well.
Almark catches up with Wendy on a runway.
Good morning, Almark.
Wendy turned around and smiled, peeking into Almark's face.
"You look good today."
"You slept well."
Almark nodded.
"I'm taking another day off today, and I'm going to teach Ilmis again tomorrow."
"Yeah."
Wendy nods with a smile.
"I know."
"Well, I told you."
I'm looking forward to majoring.
Wendy said so with pleasure as if she were herself.
Ah, yeah.
Almark nodded a little surprised.
"I'm looking forward to it."
That's what Almark said, showing Wendy Mars' wand.
"I tried using this in the morning, but the magic was really good."
"Yes."
Wendy smiles.
"Good."
Wendy reached out and received Mars' wand.
"You really only look like a stick."
"Yeah."
"Wonderful. This is the key."
Wendy waves her wand.
The cane shows no reaction.
I don't think I can use it.
Return the wand to Almark with a bitter smile.
"I can't use it either."
Almark shook the returned wand gently.
"You'll be able to use it properly as soon as possible."
And I won't hurt you anymore.
No one is free of this wand.
"Yeah."
Wendy nodded.
Let's do our best for the exam.
"Yeah, I'll do my best."
Yes, that's right.
Almark also nodded.
The last class of the day was in charge of Demitre, who had been in charge of three groups for three years.
Demitre's classes, known for their generosity and pace, certainly took a long time.
I hear students in other classes finish class and walk through the hallway in front of Almark's classroom.
That's not good.
Almark shuffled to hear the story of Demitre, whose pace remained unchanged even after the bell rang to announce the end of class.
At last, after class, Almark jumped out of the classroom after Demitre.
For a moment, Nelson looked at Almark as if he had spoken up, but there was no time for Almark to be there.
Run past students in other classes and leave the school building.
Ain and Zap were already waiting in the same place as yesterday.
"It's late, Almark."
Ain says.
"Sorry."
Almark apologized.
"Demitri's class was a little longer."
Ah.
Ain nods.
"Sure, that teacher's class doesn't take long."
"More than that, Fita and the others..."
Almark looks at Zap.
"It's okay."
Zap nodded.
"Neither of you have come out yet."
"Good."
Almark exhaled relieved and then looked at Ain.
"Ain was fast."
"I left the classroom before Ficke said anything extra."
Ain answered with a clear face.
"He's bored because everybody got into exam study. If you find out, you'll definitely find it interesting."
"Doesn't Ficke study?"
In response to Almark's question, Ain shrugs his shoulders.
"Shouldn't be good if you don't. You said you found a way to do it without studying as hard as you can."
"Ah, speaking of which...."
Almark remembers what happened to Fiquet yesterday and tells Ain to listen.
Tanya.
Ain frowned.
"That fortunetelling rash."
"Divination?"
"Almark. If there's anything you want to tell Ficke, tell him this year."
Al Mark said the words neatly.
Eh, why?
"I'm sure you will."
Ain said with a stupid face.
"He's our best candidate for grade."
"Eh?"
"Ah."
Almark's voice overlapped with Zap's.
"I'm here. Michelle."
"Mm."
Ain looks at the exit of the school building.
The girl who was talking to Fita with a smile came out yesterday.
As soon as possible, it disappears in the same direction as yesterday.
"Fita's not here yet."
Zap nods at Almark's words.
"Yeah, he hasn't come yet."
Zap was fast, too.
"I've been running since the end of class."
Zap said with a little light.
We got here before Ain did.
After a while, Fita appeared at the exit of the school building.
"Coming."
Zap whispers.
After Fita disappears in the same direction as Michelle, she sees an Ain that hardly moves and makes a sound of Zap twitching.
Aren't you going yet?
"I know where to go."
Ain said.
"You don't have to hurry."
Well, that's true.
"By the way, both of you."
Ain saw both of them.
Do you know where that road originally went?
"Where to?
Almark and Ain looked at each other.
"I wasn't connected anywhere. The road was cut off on the way."
Zap answers.
It's like a little hill.
I see.
Ain nods.
That was the beast trail from there.
Ah.
Almark nodded.
"The tall grass goes on forever."
Hmm.
Ain narrowed his eyes and saw where Fita had disappeared.
Time to go.
That way, I start walking on my feet.
Almark and Zap followed.
A path that leads neither to the dormitory nor to the forest.
There are several such paths in the academy.
Sometimes it leads to old farmland and buildings that are no longer in use, but most roads have disappeared in the middle of the grass and bushes.
Almark thought this road was one of them.
Does Ain know where this road went?
Almark asked.
"I don't know."
Ain answers.
"Don't expect."
Anticipate?
Ah.
Almark twisted his neck at Ain's words.
"What a waste for you. [M] Can you be clear?"
"To put it simply,"
Ain answers facing forward.
It was followed by a dark hole.
"The Dark Hole?
Almark frowned at a disturbing sound.
"Darkness?
Ah.
Ain nodded.
"It used to be a place of darkness."
