Cherie arranged the Ritual Array for advancement and then stepped into it, taking a deep breath. Karlo watched her, hesitating as he said, "Are you really not going to inform Madam Mina? Should we ask her to oversee this?"
"...No need."
Cherie shook her head.
Mentioning Madam Mina always unsettled her—ever since the divination revealed "The real Madam Mina is dead," she had been unsure how to face her teacher, resulting in her skipping classes for this period. The more time passed, the more anxious she grew about meeting her teacher, unsure of how to explain her absence. This dilemma undoubtedly affected the speed of her advancement, but nevertheless, the day to step into Third Rank had finally arrived.
Cherie silently recalled the knowledge about the profession of Astrologer.
