Chapter 166: Preparations

After two months of studying seishin beasts from various seishin elemental class, Kraftvoll and the other students of the 210th class were pretty curious about the main reason they had to go through that experience. After she saw the expressions of all her students who were showing curiosity about the matter, Teacher Kyleen decided to continue her explanation to all of her students.

She said to them, "I know it was a hard experience for all of you in the past two months. I know that all of your elemental teachers crammed knowledge about the seishin beast into your heads during this period of time. Now, I am going to tell all of you the reason why all of you had to go to all of those elemental classes about various seishin beasts. It is because we are going on a trip to the Valkyrie Forest next Monday for the whole week!"

Everyone in the 210th class had mixed feelings about their homeroom teacher's announcement.

Some of the students of the 210th class, including Kraftvoll and the other representatives of their class, felt excitement after hearing their homeroom teacher. The eyes of these students sparkled a little after hearing their homeroom teacher's announcement. Some of them were anticipating an event for a long time so they could not contain their excitement.

Meanwhile, there are some students from Kraftvoll's class that feel a little anxious about this trip. It was pretty established that the Valkyrie Forest was one of the most dangerous places in the whole kingdom.

Teacher Kyleen continued speaking despite the mixed reactions of her students. She said, "The Verrater Academy's seishin cultivation curriculum was designed so that students will not only learn the ways of seishin cultivation. Also, the seishin cultivation of the academy aims for its students to gain more experiences by letting their students engage in real battles. Don't worry about your safety because I, myself, and some of your elemental teachers will accompany you there."

After hearing their homeroom teacher's words, Kraftvoll and his two sworn brothers gazed among each other with a smile on their face. The girls, Princess Kyomi, and the other members of the six-man team of their class did the same thing.

The other students of the 210th class who were afraid earlier finally have peace of mind after hearing their homeroom teacher's assurance. Who would be more suitable to protect them than their teacher? That's why the fears in the hearts were suddenly vanished after hearing their homeroom teacher.

Among the students their class, only Kraftvoll had experience in fighting seishin beasts. Even if that was the case, he was only able to do a hunt of a seishin beast for one time. After all, the surprise attack of the Dark Alliance happened right after he finished his first hunt.

Kraftvoll had been at the king's care after that atrocious event. The king already regretted the fact that he did not take him under his care ever since he accepted him to be his student, Right now, even though he's at the academy's care, he was still being protected by the pillars of the Holy Alliance at the shadows.

Teacher Kyleen started to give instructions to her students before explaining to them what they were going to do in the trip. She said, "Prepare all the essential items you need to bring to our trip before Monday, okay? I'll give to all of you the list of items that all of you must bring in this trip of ours."

After saying her instruction, Teacher Kyleen started to explain everything that their class was gonna do on the upcoming trip. She gave them some reminders and tips so that they would be able to avoid the worst because things don't always go on your way. She dismissed them right after she managed to tell all of the important things she needed to.

All the students of the 210th class spent that week in their classes and in their preparations for their upcoming trip. On the last day of the weekdays, Teacher Kyleen decided to divide her students into groups. She wanted all the things to be not a hassle for the elemental teachers that were going to accompany them.

After thinking it through, Teacher Kyleen decided to let the representatives of their class' three-man team into one group again. While she grouped up Princess Kyomi and the other representative of their class in the six-man team competition together as well.

Teacher Kyleen decided to divide the rest of the students of the 210th class into two teams. The other team had six members while the other one had seven members.

When the teams of the trip were finalized, the 210th class of Verrater Academy was finally ready for their upcoming trip.

They only have to wait on Sunday for the carriages that would bring them to the Central Valkyrie Forest which was the central area of the natural borders of the Walkiria Kingdom.

The day for their departure to the central part of the Valkyrie Forest came just like that. Numerous carriages, outside the building used by their class, were waiting for all of them.

All of the students of the 210th class started to come one after another because the time for them to depart is nigh. Teacher Kyleen told them to come down at 9 in the morning. It's 10 minutes before nine, so naturally, the students will start coming down now.

All of them knew the temper of their homeroom teacher about tardiness so they did not dare to be late. They did not want to be like their President and his sworn brothers so they were always at the time especially at Teacher Kyleen's class or appointments.

After ten minutes, all of the other three elemental teachers already arrived along with Teacher Kyleen. When she saw Princess Kyomi and the other girls, she asked them, "Is everyone here?"

Princess Kyomi immediately responded, "Teach, when I counted earlier, we're still just twenty students here."

After hearing Princess Kyomi's response, Teacher Kyleen's eyebrows were suddenly lowered and drawn together. She already had an idea who among her students were tardy.
