บท 75: This… won’t be easy

The four girls left the classroom together, strolling through the academy halls as they enjoyed the fresh air wafting in from the open windows. Anna walked beside Elara, who was happily chatting about her favorite foods, while Aria and Nina trailed behind, deep in conversation.

With her usual playful tone, Aria threw a remark over her shoulder:

"Hope you enjoyed that nap, Anna, because in an hour, we're going back to running drills. So, get ready," she said, almost as if trying to spook her.

Anna raised an eyebrow, confused.

"Running?"

Nina, walking alongside Aria, shook her head and replied:

"I doubt the instructor will repeat the same crazy workout from last time. It was way too much…"

Aria rolled her eyes with a mischievous smile.

"Oh really? I bet she'll push us even harder this time."

Curious, Anna turned to them.

"What are you two talking about? What class?"

Aria gave her a conspiratorial grin.
