Bab 91: Chapter 90: First Day of the Academy (2)

Entering the lobby of the Academy, I looked around the spacious hall, filled with various scrolls and portraits.

Lining the long crimson carpet leading towards a large set of double doors that were wide open were over two dozen people dressed in long, flowing black robes.

Each person had some colored tassel hanging from their belts, and they nodded to us as we passed.

Someone stepped forwards, Jahi and I widened our eyes in surprise when we saw a familiar figure, her long black hair pulled into a braid, one sleeve of her robe torn off to reveal the coiling snake tattoo that seemed to writhe on her pale skin. The last striking feature was her green slitted snake eyes, filled with mirth as she looked at us.

"My, how much have you two grown? It feels like just yesterday you were both just up to my knees~"

Jahi chuckled as she approached Arch Mage Kolia, looking down at the woman as she said "Yeah, it's been awhile Miss Kolia!"
