The Veil

Chapter # 6

The read-headed teacher lead the pair through school halls to the main training grounds where all the older students were practicing.

"These are the main training grounds,"
(Name) told Gojo as they gazed at vast lush grass plains.

"Prof. (Name)!" It's so good to see you again!" One of the older teens walked towards them. She had short black hair and was wearing the training gear like every other student.

"Hello, Ave." Simeon turns to Gojo, "this is Ave, she is a senior here---"

"---class representative and a remarkable sorceress." (Name) finished.

"Aww, you are hyping me too much." The young girl laughed, "but I still gotta do a lot if I wish to surpass you."

(Name) laughed, "of course, and this is Satoru Gojo."

The girl examined him from head to toe, "ah the great Satoru Gojo, I've heard a lot about you. Are you seriously stronger than (Name)?"

Gojo couldn't help but grin, "Aye, I am."

"I gotta surpass you too."

"I give you my blessings."

"How are your preparations for finals taking off?"

"little pain in our butts the preparations are," the girl groaned, "teachers here are only concerned with theories rather than practical implications of what we learn."

Simeon cleared his throat, "except for Prof.Simeon here, he is a little bit agreeable."
(Name) ruffled her hair gently, "Don't worry you got all your life to imply your knowledge."

Simeon stretched his arms over his head, "You know what, (name), how about you train them for an hour?"

"You just want an hour of nap? Don't you." (Name) retorted.

"No, I was planning on drinking tea and reading the book I started a month ago." He smiled brightly, "but nap also sounds fun."

"Yeah, it is certainly not a bad idea" Gojo voiced his agreement, he just wanted to see his fiancee in action.

"Okay, how about we play tag?" Gojo glanced at her and was astonished to see her smirking, it didn't look half as bad.

Ave called over her class and nodded, "okay, what are the rules."

"You all have thirty minutes to catch me if you can't the game will proceed to the next round." (Name) explained.

"What happens in the next round?" One of them asked.

"I'll hunt you all down," there was a sound of approval, "but you'll get ten minutes of head start. Is it clear?"

"Yes!" The class that consists of at least a dozen students cheered.

She turns to face Gojo, "you'll be sitting right here observing,"

"Okay, Mam." He winked but she couldn't see as he was wearing glasses.

Simeon jumped with excitement, "I'm gonna order some snacks."

(Name) stretched her limbs, jumping slightly in her position. Her hair is now tied up in a loose ponytail/bun.

"Hey, pass me the training staff, will you?"

"Is it all you are taking?" Gojo, who has been observing her, handed her the feeble weapon.
"Yeah," she nodded in affirmation.

He gave her a thumbs up, "Well, good luck."

"The ones who need good luck are these kids," she smiles slightly, "but thanks."
