Mike approached, greeting them, "Morning, Blackdragon, Libra."
He looked at Blackdragon, "What happened to you? Why are you like this?"
Blackdragon feigned nonchalance. "Just sparring." If Mike hadn't seen him near tears earlier, he might have believed it!
Changing the subject, Mike asked, "What's the plan for today?"
Libra quickly produced the training schedule. "Candy has a medical check-up, Sophie has a medical school lecture in the morning and battlefield first aid training in the afternoon..."
Although the five members of Star Class Three were classmates, their development paths were clearly different. Support classes like Sophie needed more theoretical knowledge before joining team exercises. Mike, Blackdragon, and Libra, the combat group, could be trained together.
"The three of us have training with Instructor Joseph today," Libra said. "Instructor Joseph is quite capable. He's hired two eighth-tier Lords to coach us."
