Chapter 2004: Decision

"No, no, I have said no. I am not accepting the offer," Emery stood firm in his decision.

Klea arched an eyebrow, clearly intrigued by Emery's refusal. "Why not? Do you even know what the new Academy is like?" she pressed, her curiosity evident.

"Yes... I do... sort of..." he admitted.

It had been two years since the new Academy had opened, and Emery had gleaned some information about it, particularly through Damo's attendance there.

Much of what Emery had learned was beyond his expectations. Surprisingly, rather than reopening the old Academy near Golden City, the new Academy had established three brand-new campuses in three different quadrants of the Magus Alliance: Alpha, Beta, and Delta quadrants.
