Kapitel 344: Back to Normal?

Eventually, the celebration wound down, though it did take the entire night and most of the early morning to do so. Many drunken and tired bodies littered the streets. The morning suns unveiled them from the cover of the night sky, along with many of the closed merchant stands. 

But some stall-owners decided to work despite their lack of rest, now prepping their general wares for the new day. 

For many, the celebration was well deserved but not enough reason to halt the next day's progress. This was evident by Iron Academy returning to its usual schedule, an example for much of the city to follow.

However, she was surprised to see that someone had finally beaten her to the school's closed gate.
