The Last King of Darkness

spirit appeared to be in a trance.
When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to the dormitory.

What caught his eye was a light yellow roof with a vivid flame painted on it.
The warm orange light flowed in the air, as if it was really burning.

And he was lying on the bed, holding this symbol in his hands.

The loud bang echoed in his ears.

A female voice shouted, ”Open the door, open the door! It ’s time for class.
Are you going to be late on the first day of class? ”

For a moment, Rode had a wonderful sense of trance, as if he had returned to his student days, being urged by the kind and nostalgic but annoying study committee.

But he quickly dispelled this illusion, and his tough spirit returned to his soul.

I will definitely survive.

”I ’m coming. ”

Rode answered, jumped out of bed, opened the heavily hammered door, and was surprised to find a group of people standing outside.

They were all wearing light blue school uniforms and holding thick books.

And the door knocker was the golden-haired girl Kassan.

She also changed into a school uniform, tied up her golden hair, and two strands of hair gently swayed on her cheeks, making her look bright and beautiful while also having a hint of elegance.

But at the moment, she looked very angry, her light blue eyes widened, and her willow-like eyebrows almost stood up.

”Rode! Do you have the guts to sleep and not have the courage to open the door for me? I ’m about to break the door down! ”

Rode scratched the back of his head, ”Why is it you? ”

”Why not me? ” Kassan retorted, with the aura of a study committee.

Wayne poked his head out from behind her, looking a little depressed, ”She is our group leader.
We are all students of the ten departments and ten groups of the three schools.
When we were divided into groups, you were sleeping too soundly, and I didn ’t wake you up, so we went first. ”

Kassan said sternly, ”Today ’s main class is very important.
It ’s Karaman ’s ’Extraordinary Soul ’.
We are going to start learning about spiritual power.
It is absolutely not allowed to be late.
Do you want us to lose points? ”

A petite girl behind her said weakly, ”Group leader, let ’s go.
It ’s not early anymore… ” ”Immediately bring ’Extraordinary Soul ’ and ’Basic Combat Theory ’ and set off! ” Kassan glared at Rode.

”Are these two books! Are you illiterate? You don ’t even recognize the words? ”

Rode didn ’t argue with her and quickly grabbed the two books she pointed to and joined the team.

Under Kassan ’s leadership, the team quickly headed out.

As they walked, she continued to lecture them.

”As the Flame Keeper of the Starfire Sequence, we should work even harder.
Rode, your first flame seed wasn ’t good, so you should work twice as hard and try to ignite another flame seed by the end of the semester.
That ’s the only way you ’ll have a chance to enter the Knights after graduation. ”

Her attitude was somewhat aggressive, unlike yesterday.

But Rode didn ’t mind and was thinking about the library incident.

It was Wayne who muttered, ”Isn ’t the Knights your dream? Rode lost his memory… ”

”Shut up! ” Kassan rebuked.
”Can ’t he have dreams just because he lost his memory? Your first flame seed wasn ’t good either.
The use of the Guardian Crystal is very limited.
If you don ’t ignite a second flame seed, you won ’t get a high score in combat class! ”

Wayne ’s face turned red.
”I don ’t need a high score.
Passing is enough. ”

Kassan coldly said, ”Your way of thinking is the cancer of humanity… ”

Wayne fiercely retorted, ”What do you mean by cancer? I know my limits and doing what I can is the greatest contribution! ”

Along the way, the two argued incessantly, while the other twenty or so people remained silent and followed behind them.

They walked out of the dormitory building, crossed the tree-lined path, and suddenly the scenery opened up.
Countless students in light blue school uniforms hurried along the cobblestone road.
The distant lake reflected a bright light under the continuous streetlights.
The teaching area, consisting of numerous turrets, towers, and castles, was located in the center of the entire campus.
The windows glittered under the bright light, and even the oppressive black mist in the sky didn ’t seem so frightening.

Kassan and Wayne stopped arguing and immersed themselves in the vibrant scenery.

At this moment, a huge voice sounded in the academy.

”Good morning, students of Kimberly.
Today is the 26th, and the time is 2:15 in the morning.
I am the broadcaster, Kazaan. ”

”I ’m glad to share some good news with you.
The observatory has just informed me that the fourth Tuesday of the Misty Moon, the first Monday, has arrived! Students, take advantage of this opportunity, attend classes diligently, and burn your youth for the Holy Flame of the Royal City! ”

”There ’s only fifteen minutes left until class starts, so please don ’t be late. ”

As the broadcast tower ’s announcement ended, they merged into the crowd and became one of the millions of Flame Keeper students, rushing towards the future they desired.
