We stepped out of the classroom and headed towards the training grounds for the practical exam.
Since it wasn't my turn yet, I decided to chat with Kaia while we waited.
The first match was between a female student and a male student.
Both held wooden swords, their expressions serious as they faced each other.
Kaia, who was watching the match with me, asked,
"Who do you think will win, Adel?"
"Hmm, that's a tough one. They both seem quite skilled."
"…They're both support class students."
Kaia's flat tone made me cough awkwardly.
No wonder the energy they were emitting felt so…ordinary.
'…Then why do they look so serious?'
They looked like they were about to fight to the death, not participate in a simple sparring match.
They were acting even more serious than Kevin and I did during our spar.
Anyway…
The match between the two unusually serious support class students began.
