Bab 171: Chapter 170 - Invitation

Today's the 25th of December, a little under two months after the end of that combat exam. Public opinion of the X-Warrior Zone had continued to grow worse and worse since then, which was to be expected. 

Considering how many people had died in the last year, you can't exactly blame the public for their outrage. A lot of people had lost loved ones thanks to the string of incidents we've gone through lately, and that's not counting the victims that were currently stuck in vegetative states.

Most of their loved ones were probably still clinging to the false hope that they might wake up someday, but those hopes will never come true. 

A few days after the end of the combat exam, I went to apologize to Kiran's parents, who were both devastated. But they didn't blame me at all, instead directing their hatred towards the Academy and the X-Warrior Zone in general, as most others had done and were doing.
