June and Red were having noodles together.

It was a legionary soldier who spotted June in a tree branch around the Shadow Squad camp, not Gizmo. But he gave the news to Serge as if he was the one who was vigilant enough to catch a spy, interrupting their conversation about the use of shadow energy. That blonde fool with a twisted grin was jealous of her.

When she first met June, she felt a pang in her heart. The pretty girl with dark brown hair was fighting with a sparkling chained knife alone with some legionaries or perhaps just defending herself. It was strange how she felt that she already knew June.

"I came in search of you last night. You weren't in your room."
The girl kept her face nonchalant. She was already in a gloomy mood.
"Don't tell me you were in the bathroom... for two hours." June's voice was polite as ever. "I waited a long time before falling asleep."
Where did she fall asleep? In a tree? June was such a bird.

The girl kept her mouth shut. She was confused about whether it was a good idea to tell her the truth.
"Red, you can tell me." June never asked what her name was. Probably she heard legionaries calling her Nameless and Redhead. Then she honored her with a name: Red.

"You haven't been clearing your throat about your journey then why should I?"
Her answer put an end to June's questionaries. June felt offended, she could tell by her sad expression. June was a spy. It was quite logical for her to keep secrets.

The girls went to Ling after breakfast. He walked them to the school that was troubling him. It was the Iron Beak's school students were talking about in Galen's dojo after the crude duel with Xiang Tzu.

Ling said nonchalantly, watching a girl with a steely look approach, "You know what? There is no way you can learn to be a Herald. You must be born with the talent."

Red didn't understand what he meant, but she got one thing: this school taught Herald style. Because the girl with two black braids was armed with a katana.
"I disagree," the new girl spoke. "The Dynasty will no longer need the original Herald's help in their every step. My school is already a part of the Dynasty military."

"Great!" June mocked

"Great!" June mocked. "What are you playing for, Kibo?"
You know her? June seemed to have a lot of acquaintances in the capital. Why shouldn't she have? She was very open and outgoing. Moreover, kind and warm-hearted.

Before she could be introduced to Kibo, who was probably the head of the school-too young to be-and negotiate like civilized people, she charged her students to attack them.
Red felt no fear in her heart watching a bunch of kids with glaive. Because she had defeated her mentor, her first trainer in her new memory, Serge. She beat up everyone who stood in her way and accepted some cat scratch in return.
