Third Person POV
Silence enveloped the headmaster's office of Nimbus Academy. Jin Glenn stood there unmoving. Ang tanging maririnig lang ay ang kanyang pag-hinga at ang ang dalawang taong nag-teleport sa loob ng kanyang office.
"Meister.." Hindi makapaniwalang sambit ni Jin Glenn sa bagong dating.
"Nice seeing you again, Jin."
"We haven't met yet. I'm Collin Enrys." Sabi ng lakaking may malamig na ekpresyon sa kanyang mukha. He pulled the hood of his head and Jin Glenn noticed an uncanny resemblance to someone he knows.
"Mabuti at ligtas kayo galing sa mission. Maupo po tayo, Meister, Mr. Enrys,"
"Kailangan pa namin bumalik sa council house. Did you receive the letter I sent?" Pallav Kentra said.
"Opo, Meister. Pero hindi ba parang delikado na bigyan sila ng mission? Lalo pa at-"
"That's exactly why we need them to." The Chief of the Circle said to him.
"The strong devours the weak. That's the kind of tournament it is. And, the tournament isn't our problem." Sabi ni Collin Enrys sa headmaster ng Nimbus Academy na walang magawa sa desisyon nila. Deep in his heart, he knows that his students need it too.
"I understand." Jin Glenn sighed to himself.
"Then, we're going." They are gone faster than they came. Wala na lang nagawa si Jin kung hindi sundin ang sinabi nila.
He weaved some magic and mouthed some words. Ang mga letra ay isa-isang lumutang papunta sa isang blankong papel. May sinabi siyang ilang salita at biglang itong naging abo.
Jin Glenn sent a letter to a certain organization.

Margaux Eurydice Kentra POV
"As you can see. Mismong si Chief Kentra ang nagbilin ng mission."
It feels as if a ton of weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Nakabalik si lolo ng ligtas mula sa mission na pinuntahan niya. I glanced at Clyde. The news didn't seem to faze him at all. I suppose, alam niya na makakabalik talaga ang dad niya.
"Headmaster, you don't think that going out of the Academy is going to be alright, right?" I noticed Clauss fidgeting his fingers worriedly again.
"It's won't be. Delikado sa labas ng academy. Kahit may treaty tayo, meron pa ding mga criminal, rebels at mga dark guilds sa labas. At pwede din kayong atakihin ng ibang Academy. Lalo pa at malapit na ang tournament. Ganun pa man, you will still do this mission." Tahimik lang kaming anim habang nakikinig. Now, the danger of this all is finally sinking in. The headmaster's office suddenly feels smaller than it actually is. Although I've been with Grandpa sa mga missions niya, medyo kinakabahan pa din ako. Who knows what might happen out there?
I practically grew up amidst people who were always facing danger. Sanay na ako sa mga labanan. Even when we're 'casters', even if we can practically live what human call 'forever', we can still die.
"Wala kayong dapat isipin. You will just provide assistance with a close organization to Nimbus Academy." Meister Rav said. The six of us glanced at each other momentarily.
"It's Y. U. P. O." Headmaster added. Doesn't it sound to human-ish?
"Yang's Union of Persons Organization. Mga tao sila na mga descendants ng mga casters na piniling tumira kasama ang mga tao."Pagpapaliwanag ni Meister Rav samin.
Narinig ko na ang mga story about sa mga taong descendants ng mga casters. They are scattered all over the places, that's why even the circle has lost track of their ancestry. May instances na minsan nakaka-exhibit sila ng mga abilities na katulad ng isang caster. Though hindi ito kasing lakas.
