บท 362: Fourth Day

The sun rose once again, casting its warm golden light over the academy grounds as the festival entered its second day after everyone was allowed to participate.

It was a day that promised more exciting displays of talent, club competitions, and interactions among students and visitors alike.

However, the atmosphere within the academy remained charged with tension, primarily due to the shocking events of the previous day.

Word had spread like wildfire about Callius Augustride's display of power, and it seemed everyone had an opinion.

Groups of students huddled together, discussing the incident in hushed tones, their expressions a mix of fascination and apprehension.

"I heard he burned them alive," one student whispered to another, eyes wide with disbelief.

A nod of confirmation followed, "Yes, it's all anyone's been talking about. Callius went too far."
