Chapter 99: You Should Be Careful

Leon led the way through the strange garden, moving confidently among the enormous plants that seemed more fitting for an enchanted forest than the grounds of an academy. 

Anna walked by his side, fascinated by everything she saw, while Aria, Elara, and Nina followed behind, visibly more cautious. 

"How do you manage not to get lost in a place like this?" Anna asked, glancing at Leon with curiosity. 

"I guess it's a matter of practice," he replied without looking back. "When you've been here enough times, you start to notice patterns. Besides, I have a good memory." 

Anna nodded, mentally cataloging his words. 

'He's very observant,' she thought. 'He seems to know what he's doing, but how dangerous is this place really?' 

As they walked, Leon began explaining details about some of the plants.
