Chapter 174: Graduation Ceremony (Part-1) (2/2)
”We have been doing well, Headmaster.”
”Good to know. Because you guys have to stand there patiently and say goodbye to your fellow mates, your junior, your senior, today is a great day of honor for them and sadness. Maybe in your life, you never meet them again, or maybe one day you meet them in the crossroads of life. I will humbly request you to witness the graduation ceremony and their faces. They are the new graduates of our academy, new shining stars of the magic world who will one day write their own story and leave their legacy for the following generations.
So, without any delay, let's begin with the students who are graduating from the basic course first. I would request all graduates to share their experiences of academy life briefly with the students.
So, the first one is…..”
While listening to the students who talked about their academy life, Kai smiled and looked at Alice, who stood before him. Coming closer, he whispers into her ear in a low tone.
”It has been eleven years now when we made the promise to become magic users together and join the same academy to learn magic. But we got separated for eleven years. You must have gone through many things unknown to me. I too, have gone through many changes in my life in the past eleven years. Still, knowing or unknowingly, we are standing here together, graduating from the same academy on the same day. I don't know what happened, or is it destiny, but I feel lucky that I was able to keep my promise to you.”
Alice had a bright smile on her face and nodded her head without any words.
”Same for me, Kai. I also am glad that you are here beside me on this important occasion,” muttered Alice in a low voice.
But Kai was able to hear her voice loud and clear.
Clap-clap-clap...
The sound of the clapping echoed in the assembly ground as Lizel left the stage.
Without knowing themselves, the time had passed, and only two of them remained in the end.
Oliver, who was standing on the stage, smiled.
”Students, the next candidates are going to be unique among all the graduates this year. One of them is a very well known figure and idol of our academy. Her natural talent is no less to talk about.
The other is a complete opposite; you may know him or may not. He had only been a student of this academy for the last twelve days and got my acknowledgement. I am glad that he is here with us. Let me present to you the Ice Queen, Alice, and the New King of Buraford, Kai Seft. I can tell you that they are the most outstanding geniuses I have seen in my life.”
Kai and Alice were bewildered by the sudden grand introduction and looked at each other with bitter expressions.
”Let's go; the Headmaster has already called our name. We can't let others waste their precious time” saying that they simultaneously got up on the stage and looked at the students.
