Three days passed away in a blink of an eye.
Originally, Claire planned to return to Triastal right away but as the princess of Camelot asked Azzy to stay for a couple of days more to tour around the kingdom, she was obliged to stay behind for three more days.
As for why Leah asked Azzy to stay around? Naturally, she doesn't want him to treat her place like a training ground. She also wants him to have memories of touring around her kingdom a bit. So far, Azzy has toured only around the city of Camelot, but not the whole kingdom, unlike his foster parents. With so little time for the next semester to start, he decided to enjoy the little time he have with a three-day vacation.
In the meantime, Claire and Leah also have one last spar to test the former's new strength. Claire still lost horribly without putting up a good fight but still, she was more satisfied with the outcome, seeing how Claire was forced to battle with two of her Arcana from the start, used several soul skills and also sealing techniques. In simple terms, Leah went all out against her.
On April 11th, Azzy and his family returned home while Claire and her sister returned to Triastal.
Upon reaching the home, Affea casually looked at the mailbox before entering the home. There are three envelopes inside, of which two of them were addressed to Azzy.
She handed to him, "Azzy, it looks like both of them are from your Academy. Here…"
Entering the house, Azzy opened the first envelope curiously only to find the report card inside.
<strong>ACLEIN ACADEMY OF ARCANA</strong>
Principal: Barton Everglade
Vice Principal: Sahara Fauns
Homeroom teacher: Rubin
<strong>COMMENTS</strong>
In general, we see progress but also potential. Mr. Azrael proved himself in the combat subject but he was quite behind the rest of the class when it comes to theoretical subjects. He needs to focus on his studies more. We will naturally encourage him for the next year and hope to see his grade improve a lot. A model student is the one that not only does great in combat tournaments but also does well in academics, so that, other students find him as an inspiration to work harder. Good luck.

"3.5, huh…" Azzy was satisfied with the overall score considering his poor grades in the first semester. Not to mention, he never went to school for the past four years and basically skipped from second grade directly to eighth grade. However, he was disappointed to read the comments section where the academy seemed to be expecting much more from him. He thought the school management would understand how much hard work he did during the second semester. In the end, the results matter the most.
Putting aside the envelope, Azzy proceeded to open the second one. This one contains a letter.

"Let's hope that this new academy will promote free Arcana studies just like before." For something like combat, runes, card creations, or sealing techniques, Azzy feels that they should be more open and books should only be like one of the guides, not a textbook where a student just memorizes and follow them. This type of method will restrict one's ability to attempt new things.
He closed the envelope and took his seat while Affea went upstairs and switched on his personal assistant robot. Usually, she wouldn't do that as Kia was gifted to her son but after leaving for two weeks, the house is full of dust and the cleaning servant is unavailable at the moment. On the other hand, she is a princess who never touched the broom in her whole life.
So, she had to ask the robot to take care of the house cleaning.
During the next few days, Azzy did nothing but laze around the bed or exchange messages with Claire and Gideon. He received a piece of information from Gideon that Snivy has already left for the Silver City of the Vesna Nation during the previous week. He wasn't close with her and already knew that she was going to join Eternal Institutions Main Branch as an exchange student. So, he wasn't bothered much about it.
Then, he heard that Mia is going to be the next student council president as Zona was graduated. But, since he doesn't have her soul signature to contact through the message card, Azzy could only congratulate her later.
<strong>April 15th, 1994;</strong>
Azzy woke up early in the morning and wore the new school uniform that he received from the Academy. A white shirt and tie with a logo of an eye stitched on the front pocket. Over it, he wore a maroon blazer and buttoned up.
"Kia, fetch me my watch, please." After spending enough time on ordering this and that to his robot assistant for several days, he was very comfortable taking its help as it would reduce his time.
The cute robot in white scanned the room and pick the watch from a shelf and handed it to him while he was busy packing the books inside his platinum grade storage card that was gifted by Barton back when he accept him as his Prime Master.
After getting ready, he came downstairs, had his breakfast, and left for school at seven-thirty in the morning, ninety minutes earlier, mainly because of the Orientation.
He exited the house and started walking towards the bus stop. Meanwhile, the Super Android was following him in secret, as usual, fulfilling her duty as his bodyguard.
