Kapitel 228: Field Trip

The clerk at the academy's entrance looked at Lith's group like they were a bunch of lunatics.

"Normally, a group of five would be perfect, but the academy advises against going into the forest. We lack staff, so in case anything happens rescue teams might come late, as in very late.

"Also, a lot of magical beasts have been hurt or died, so they may hold a grudge against humans. Are you sure you aren't willing to reconsider? Remember that you can't open Warp Steps in the academy's proximity without a special pass."

The group nodded in unison. Even if they couldn't get inside the academy, they could still escape from whatever danger they met. They paid the required merit points and left through the front gate.

"Do we walk or fly?" Lith asked. The trip was already different from what he had planned, so he wasn't in a hurry.

"Walk. The mining town is only twenty kilometers from the academy." Phloria replied after checking on a map.
