Chapter 313: Return to the Tower

Welcome back to the Tower of Prodigies, Dawnbringer!]

A little bit of excitement, nervousness, and helplessness surged in Cedric's body as the cheerful but mechanical voice of the system echoed in his mind.

"I'm back," he whispered as he stood in the empty reception area of the lobby.

If it weren't for the voice of the system greeting him upon his return, he would've thought that he was back at his penthouse at the Starlight Royal Academy due to the sheer familiarity of the things he could see here.

Sighing to himself, he glanced at the doors that led to the trials, but only for a short moment. Then he made his way to his room.

Upon getting there, a strange expression appeared on his face. He didn't know why he was expecting a change to happen somewhere around here after passing the first stage of the trials, so he felt a bit disappointed when he discovered nothing.
