Chapter 374: Reunion

Yawning tiredly, I strolled through the streets of Global City, making my way toward the academy.

I'd been away for half a year, but the city didn't seem to have changed at all.

Cheerful faces of cadets, towering buildings, the vibrant glow of holographic neon billboards, worker robots diligently cleaning the streets, and occasional flying cars and hoverbikes racing through the sky.

Looking at the city and finding it exactly like how I remembered brought solace to my anxious heart.

The truth is, I've been feeling a little scared these past few days. At first, I didn't want to admit it, but it's the truth.

Chaos and carnage loomed on the horizon, drawing closer with each passing day.

Once the final exams are over, the third arc will begin. Am I even ready for it? For the death and destruction that will happen in the third arc?

"It's alright," I whispered to myself. "I've done everything in my power to prepare."

And I truly did.
