A year ago, they were just freshmen starting their journey, and now they had graduated, watching the parade on the streets. The younger students nervously stood behind Headmaster Baron, just like their past selves a year ago. Time truly flew by.

Shoyo still remembered the feeling of seeing Jennie for the first time at last year's celebration. Looking back now, his feelings for Jennie seemed more like admiration, like that of an understanding older sister.

Now, he was clear that he liked Rachel and wanted to take care of her for the rest of his life, walking the future path together. On this rainy night, the two of them strolled hand in hand under the umbrella, enjoying the romantic time of walking in the rain. Shoyo's heart was searching for the perfect moment to confess.

"Shoyo, thank you. I feel really happy." Rachel played with the seashell necklace, occasionally thinking of Jennie. No, that was just a makeshift replacement. The genuine one that had accompanied Shoyo's growth was hanging around her neck. Now, she was the one who could be with Shoyo.

Being praised by Rachel made Shoyo nervously look around, as a question lingered in his mind. "Do we even need to confess when things have progressed to this point?" However, some words remained unspoken; the other person would never know your feelings if you didn't express them.

As for Cloude, he continued to work hard to become a Huntector. Even when Jennie invited him to study together on the shopping street, he politely declined and practiced alone at home.

The freshmen had all gone to the celebration, leaving only Headmaster Baron and a few teachers at the academy. The square was deserted, with only endless rainwater contrasting strongly with the scene of the impassable streets during the morning parade.

At the Research Institute on the other side of Grandecy, although it was a celebration, many researchers were still striving for the future of humanity. "Thank you all for your hard work tonight. Some materials are urgently needed from the shopping street, but I can't leave. Who can help?"

Two researchers who had more free time readily answered Vork's question. However, they weren't very clear about the assessment materials, so they looked to Zinchel nearby.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9Y4Cnjvq4
"Zinchel, why don't you go and help too? Go quickly and come back soon."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuHHKLfsTK
"Alright." Then Zinchel, expressionless like a puppet, led the two researchers out of the Research Institute.

Anwar finished the full-day coronation ceremony and returned to the palace bedroom to continue handling state affairs. In the depths of the palace, the entrance was the grand hall, guarded by guards on both sides. At the end of the grand hall was a revolving staircase leading to the bedroom.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC17ORR0dR2
The bedroom was located in the high tower behind the grand hall, about ten meters high from the roof of the grand hall. The king sat high above, able to overlook the entire landscape of Grandecy from the tower. Additionally, the outer perimeter of the high tower was protected by the royal protection force field passed down through the ages, making it impossible to directly attack the tower.

If anyone wanted to harm the king's safety, they had to pass through the grand hall or destroy the entire grand hall, which had been the target of Flamape and Soul-Devouring Mine Beast before. However, ordinary Skullbreakers would never have the intelligence to understand the security structure of the palace, so the creator of the new type of Skullbreaker must be human.

Anwar looked out at the scenery from the bedroom. Although Leo hadn't returned from his expedition, at least there hadn't been any Fakeslave attacks or sightings of new Skullbreakers and Fakeslaves in the past few months. Everything was as usual, and humans continued to fight against ordinary Skullbreakers. Perhaps Leo had indeed eliminated these dangerous elements, or perhaps he had silently sacrificed himself for humanity.

Looking at Grandecy being washed by heavy rain, Anwar felt conflicted, as if there was a cloud of gloom in his heart that couldn't be dispelled. On one hand, he hoped Leo was developing as he wished, but on the other hand, he always felt like things weren't over yet.

Near the city gate, two guards responsible for registration chatted while on duty.

"Ah, how unlucky. Everyone is happily celebrating and playing, while we're stuck here enduring wind and rain."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS36InhXpql
"That's why you couldn't become a Huntector. I also wish I could go back and see my wife and children."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGsiKfdUsa
"You're the same, little guard. Let's just wait for our shift change. No one will enter the city on a day like this. It's so boring."
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQLcQyOcqt
Outside the city gate was pitch black, but suddenly, a truck emerged from the forest and slowly approached the city gate in the dark night. Shaclaw, who was responsible for pulling the cart, was covered in bloodstains, staggering, and someone was helping it walk beside it.
205Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU099DdMmAs
"Sorry... We're responsible for delivering the golden Shaclaw to the city. We were attacked by Skullbreakers on the way, and my father... I also... Here's the registration information. I hope to hurry..."

Although she wore a black cloak to cover her face, from her voice, she sounded like a young girl. The two guards saw her rushing from afar, drenched all over, and still saw her cherry lips and collarbone beneath the cloak. She must be a stunning beauty.
