Chapitre 132: A Break Interlude

The semester break had finally arrived, and with it, the opportunity to return to my small hometown.

Although our estate was sizable and prosperous, we were still considered humble farmers compared to the grand nobles of the central district.

The building was packed with students and their families, each preparing to depart.

The noise and commotion inside were palpable, a stark contrast to the usual serene atmosphere of the academy.

Despite the chill in the air, the warmth of the crowd quickly enveloped me with a simple reminder of the longingness of home.
