Bab 318: Progression

"So, where did everybody else go?"

After the whole awkward exchange between the both of us, we delved into the topic of our classmates and friends.

"As you know, Kuzon and Stefan dropped out. While Kuzon didn't resume his Second Year, Stefan left after the first half of the same Year."

I could never fully tell what was going on in Kuzon's head, but I knew it was only a matter of time before he left Ainzlark.

In fact, it was better if he did so.

While the Academy was impressive in many ways, it was incomparably too ill-equipped to properly groom people like Kuzon—even me.

We were too powerful to be placed among regular students.

Our existence would dwindle the abilities of geniuses like Stefan and Maria, and their existence would also slow us down.

"I can understand if it's Kuzon, but…"

"Still hung up on that, uh?" Ana said with a smirk.

'Is she talking about how I lost to him? Jeez…' I blushed a little, scratching my head.
