(A/N- Any dialogue with the * sign at the beginning and the end indicates that another laughter is being spoken)

While each and every one of the students watching gripped the handles of their chairs, their hearts pounding, Atticus and Aurora followed behind the squad silently without uttering a word.

Atticus couldn't help but slightly praise Aurora. Throughout the whole process, she hadn't once shaken or even flinched. He was controlling the water in her suit; he would have known the instant she did.

Atticus cleared his head of any distracting thoughts and focused on the matter at hand, his gaze landing on the massive and imposing form of the majestic gate of the city as the group walked closer to the city.

'It's big,' Atticus couldn't help but think. It was truly massive. He had seen it from afar, from the top of the hill but had totally misjudged its height. Now that he was close, it truly was tall.

Standing at a height of 18 meters was a smooth, massive, pristine white gate. It wasn't only the gate that was white; even the walls around it were completely white and had the same height as the gates.

Atticus couldn't help but notice the lack of soldiers on the wall. It was completely empty and devoid of anyone, which baffled him. It was as though there was no need for men to man the gates.

But Atticus didn't need to ponder about this weird situation for long as just as they reached a few meters away from the gates, an overwhelming aura suddenly descended upon the whole area.

The figures of Atticus, Aurora, and each of the men in the group staggered forward. Atticus's hand clenched hard, his teeth gritted as his whole body strained, trying his very best to keep each of the dead soldiers standing.

Atticus's mind was always working fast no matter the situation; he had already assessed the situation, and upon reaching a conclusion, his heart had already skipped several beats.

The aura that had descended on the area was undoubtedly that of a master rank individual.

The speed and rapidness at which Atticus's mind was working was hard to describe with words.

Atticus went through several different emotions all at once before deadening everything abruptly. In the next second, the logical side of his mind sprung up, summarizing the whole situation in 3 simple sentences.

A master rank individual was present.

Said master rank was sure to have awakened his/her perception.

Said master rank would be able to tell that three out of the four soldiers in front of him weren't breathing and in turn, dead.

Atticus's mind had never been clearer, and his knowledge on the subjects relating to the human body had never been more important.

Atticus came up with two solutions, solutions he would need to do simultaneously. He knew well enough that he couldn't sustain both for long; every second would take everything he had.

One second passed and abruptly, a small compartment jutted out from the top of the wall, its doors sliding open.

The imposing figure of a man stepped out of the compartment. He was clad in a white Yukata, his figure radiating the intense aura of a master rank.

With both arms clasped behind his back, the man gazed down at the group below the wall as though a king gazing down at his subjects.

His gaze scanned the group below, scrutinizing them thoroughly.
