The moment that he arrived, he was already surrounded by fanfare and an endless crowd.
"Hello, everyone!" He smiled sweetly at them as his open-roofed royal carriage moved past the crowd.
But Ronin could tell that sweet smile was fake.
Ronin was stuck inside the Temple of the Gods due to his duty's as Zeriav's assistant, but he had stuck a peering stone for a 2nd year student to hold up for him that he commanded with the one-word command.
He looked at Cermin from his glass. Even without reading his mind, he can tell what was in it.
He was happy to be back at school, but not for the crowd of people. His eyes shifted once in a while ass if looking for someone.
Ronin knew he was looking for him and sneered.
But then as Cermin surveyed the crowd for his friend, he saw someone else and his fake smile faltered.
There was Zeriav, wearing a hood and watching him. His face was hidden...
But his genuine delight and ecstasy upon seeing Cermin was visible.
