The academy reopened.
As students who had left for their homes all returned, the once quiet academy began to bustle with activity again.
"I look forward to working with you this semester as well."
"Likewise."
Gerhard Goldenheim attended the first pair lecture of the second semester together with Luina Berchef.
The subject was "The Study of Magical Beasts and Monsters." But since it was the first day, there wasn't much substance.
The lecture ended with just a brief overview of the upcoming plans.
"Gerhard."
"Rudger."
"I heard what happened. Quite a serious incident, I hear. They say there was a malignant creature in the academy?"
Rudger approached discreetly and whispered.
'So the news has spread.'
