92 Time try to some cake! (1/2)
”Excuse me, where are you three going?” Asked one of the maids who noticed us head out
”We're going to the city” I replied
”Ah, Have a safe trip” She said as she bowed
”We will” We replied
And just like that, we went out
It's been 2 days since the exam. After the exams ended, we were taken to a room, and those who passed were given a location and a date, nothing else. Shortly after they were teleported back out
We didn't hear anything about what happened to those who chose the blue gate or who passed, but I'm sure it'll be announced soon.
The 10 who stayed up, were put in B class, within those 10, Serena, Ariel, victor, Shadow haired boy and me Were put in the Alpha Class
In the other group, everyone was put in C-Class including Eleanor, aside from the winner who was put in B-Class
As for me, I ended up winning the entrance exam as Victor had given up, and was promised a reward, but they haven't told me what it is yet
In the end, we're still being kept in the dark about what'll happen, but I'm sure it's for security reasons
”It's a shame eleanor couldn't come...” Muttered Ariel with her head hung
”Yeah, she shut herself in her room since we got back” I replied
Anyone would, being separated from your friends because you're not good enough...
”She needs time alone, leave her be, and cheer up! She could always rank up and join us. Don't forget why we went out today!” Said Serena as she tried to comfort Ariel
”Why we went out?” Ariel asked
”You weren't listening earlier, were you... To eat cake! Cake!” Said Serena
”Ahh, Cake! We promised to go eat it, after we were back, didn't we?” Asked Ariel
”Of course we did! And we deserve it. Let's get some for Eleanor, that should cheer her up” Said Serena with a smile
”T-That's right!” Replied Ariel with as she raised her head
Her mood got better, not bad serena.
”Now that I think about it, Isn't walking to the shopping district, going to take a while?” I asked
”Now that you mention it...” Serena muttered
Eleanor's mansion Was pretty far from the shopping district as it was away from the shopping district, It's in the area of the wealthy after all.
It was a very open area
”Hmm, What should we do...” I Muttered as I tried to think of something
We couldn't ask kurt to give us a carriage ride there as we left without telling him
Suddenly I felt a pair of gazes on me
The two girls were staring straight at me as if they already had something in mind
”John, can we do that?” Serena asked
”That?” I replied
”Flying, do you think we could fly there? Or is it too risky?” Ariel asked
Oh that's what they wanted
”T-That was just a one time thing, forget that.” Said Serena as she turned her head
”It was a little scary at first, but I'm not that scared anymore” Said Ariel
”Alright then”
I grabbed on to their hands and cast 'Furtim' and 'levite' At the same time
I then propelled us straight to the sky, using velox
As we got higher, Serena grabbed on to my arm and her grip strength increased
Meanwhile ariel seemed to be just fine and enjoyed it
”Yep, I'll never get tired of this feeling” I muttered as we soared through the clouds
The refreshing feeling of the wind passing through the body, of being able to move around effortlessly, to be one with the sky.
It was an amazing feeling
Ariel was still at a loss for words, she seemed to really enjoy flying, anyone could tell if they looked at her face which was full of enthusiasm
As for serena...
”Um... Serena...” I muttered
”What...?” She asked
”It's easy to control where we're going in this position... I thought you said you weren't afraid” I replied
”O-Of course I'm not afraid!” Said Serena
”Then why are you grabbing on to me?” I asked
”...”
The moment we started soaring through the skies, Serena's grip over my left arm moved over to my whole body as she placed her arms around it
Without saying anything she simply looked away
I let out a sigh and tried to ignore it, Ariel was too engrossed in the scenery to realise
***
We landed on an alley and I made sure no one noticed, before I deactivated 'Furtim'
”Alright, let's go”
