Chapter 578 A Flying Acceptance
Chapter 578 A Flying Acceptance
What was that? Plat-plat-plat~
It sounded like paper, hitting itself against the bedroom door on the other side. Another monster? The duo felt their chests tighten into balls, as they now slowly approached the door. Breathe in, breathe out…
Breathe in, breathe out…
They moved on tip-toes, their chests already knotting into balls the closer they went. Suddenly, a warm gust of wind swept the space, making the papers on the small dining table to rustle and dance. But before they could react, 2 envelopes slipped out from underneath the door, and began floating higher and higher towards them. First, the envelopes twitched and moved closer, as if to get a whiff of their scent. They twirled and pun m, becoming a sense of wonder and magic that was foreign to the mundane world the duo knew. And then—
Whoosh! The letters distancing themselves before shooting like darts, and suddenly coming to a halt, floating mid-air in a trance-like state. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Now seemingly controlled by their hearts, the duo carefully reached for the letters that had their names on them. [Mr. Arbutus B. Kletus, The Dining Room, Larkshire Military Stronghold, Vardos.]
It gave his exact location. Was he not standing in the dining room within the competition's grounds, here in Vardos Country? Khalea's letter said the same thing. "It must… it must be from the Grandmaster." "Yes, I… I think so too."
So why the heavy pause when opening the letter? The duo looked at each other tactfully, never being so nervous in their lives. They have both had their share of examinations and competitions in the past, but never have they been so anxious like today. Gulp~
Khalea swallowed hard when thinking of how 'poorly' she performed in the examination 9 days ago. However, despite the butterflies dancing in her belly, she knew there was no benefit to stalking the matter any further. The envelope was cream-colored, bearing a vibrant red wax seal on its folded tip. Rip!!! Khalea pried the envelope open, and took out its contents, only to see an empty piece of paper staring her in the face. What's going on? (?~?)
"Ahhh!!!" Kletus' yell startled her. And before she could make heads or tails of what fascinated him, she too found herself exclaiming loudly, after seeing several words now appearing on her Letter. …. [The Heavenly Tian Academy for Exorcism
Sect Master: Dorian T. Tian (Grand Exorcist)
Dear Mrs./Miss Khalea. We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at the Heavenly Tian Academy for Exorcism. Please find enclosed in this letter, a list of all necessary items you are permitted to bring. The School term begins on xxxx. Please follow the enchanted map, to find your closest entryway into the Academy.]
….
10 minutes later, the duo had finished going through the letter. But what they found was that they couldn't see each other's letters, no matter how hard they tried. How to say it? The letter looked ordinary to anyone who the letter wasn't intended for. Again, only those accepted by the academy, or those already belonging to the academy, can see these letters fly about. So if someone fails the test, they won't be able to see anything. The duo felt that if the Grandmaster was allowing these letters to fly about, it means that he could also guarantee that no monsters would be able to see them too. Well, in truth, they were right, as the system's Master had ensured that not even the Princes in the underworld would be able to detect anything suspicious. However, what many didn't know was that Dorian truly didn't care whether these monsters discovered his existence or not. The people who truly bothered were Old Gia, Wiggins, and the rest of humanity who wanted to keep things hidden, like having an Ace up their sleeves. "The Heavenly Tian Academy… Heavenly… What is heaven… what does this heavenly part mean?" As people who used to solely believe in Science, they didn't have the concept of heaven, hell or even the afterlife. They were like empty books waiting to be filled by their owner. "Dad, we will eventually come to know. But for now, is that the important point?" Hahahhahahaha~
Khalea was so happy she was bouncing from palace to place like a little school girl. She passed! She did it! She did it! Then doesn't this mean that in no time, she too will be flying around, doing cool stunts while saving humanity too? Ahhhhhhhh!~
(>^∆^<)
.
Well, no one could stop her excitement. Kletus chuckled, feeling it has been a very, very, very long time since he saw her like this. "Dad, dad! We must prepare fast!" It was important they go through the list of things they can bring and get them fast because they truly didn't have so much time up their sleeves. They had 6 and a half more days before they head into the academy. First, they must gather those under them who passed, and do inspections before setting out together as a team. Don't think he would let them into the academy without doing an inspection. What if some bastard brought in something that was prohibited and got expelled? No way! They won't let that happen, because it will also reflect badly on them too. It wasn't just them thinking so, as several leaders, especially that leader of the mysterious training Island, also had such thoughts. 6 and a half days was enough time for everyone to fly back to their home countries and prepare. They would also like to head to the entranceways (portals) in their countries and territories, so they know where they are. What's more, they must also safeguard and protect these locations too!! Well then, what the hell are they still waiting for? Suddenly, several superiors who planned to leave in a day or two, were now packing their stuff and calling in favors or rescheduling the flights of everyone in their teams and countries. Go back! Go back! They must go back fast and prepare for the Academy's Entrance Day. But while some people were still here on ground, others had long left and were now flying high in the air. Of course, they had to head back to their home countries due to some other circumstances that popped up. …
High in the clouds, in airplanes that cruised through the skies. But wait, what did they see? A letter on their windows? No… they must be dreaming. Suddenly, these letters shrunk in a flash, becoming invisible to them. Then, the letters vanished, seemingly looking for a micro space to enter into the aircraft. Even if the space was fit for a single atom, these letters could pass through with ease. Several People's eyes jumped and bulged when seeing these letters grow before them, and then slowly sway down to their laps. Look left, look right… So no one saw it all? Rip!~
Several people tore their letters, screaming ecstatically in the aircraft, causing their neighbors to frown at their 'vulgar' attitudes. "What the hell is wrong with you?" "Are you insane or something? Are you trying to give us all heart attacks here?"
