Chương 598: Connection...

Melinda had checked through the rules of the Royal Academy and this was the first she was hearing about consequences for absence.

The Empress raised a brow,

"What, you didn't think there would be consequences? Never since the creation of the Royal Academy has a student deemed it fit to not even show up for more than a few weeks... And Hal has been gone for three months.

Even if I did not wish to punish him, and I actually do want to, the Elders are quite adamant about him being punished."

Melinda furrowed her brows,

"But to them, Hal is just one student."

It seemed a bit surreal for them to care so much about what was happening with one student even if he did make an impact during the Royal Academy entrance exams.

Especially since it seemed to Melinda like they were now making up rules to make sure he did not go scot-free.
