Chapter 547: 547 Ella's Adventures

While most of the town was checking out or getting settled into new apartments, Ella took the chance to collect her Guardian and slip out of the town gates, then fly to the forest's edge where they had the smallest of their planes stored.

She had been putting off returning to the city until they had less to do at home, but now it was time.

Arriving in the dark would be more complicated than finding the Academy in the daytime, but as a Rank Three witch, she did have some advantages. She knew the feeling of the forest around the Academy, and she had flown there before. So, she could follow the compass and the feeling of familiarity back to the compound and get the plane landed and tucked away before anyone saw her coming.

Arriving during the day would risk alerting others that she was coming, and since she wasn't just going back to the Academy, but sneaking into the city, it was better for it to be a surprise visit.
