The next day to their surprise when everyone was thinking there would not be classes as it was yesterday, they were told they could now continue going back to their training classes, before everyone eventually went back to their training classes there was a long queue for students to submit their list of teammate and with everyone present.
The reason for this was that the teachers later had a change of mind, and felt they would be rushing the students decision if they were to submit that very day, and decided to let them submit the list the next day, although some had still submitted their list yesterday but then this was for the stronger student who knew themselves.
However, the team that had managed to garner the most attention were not from other strong first years students who submitted their list the previous day but from Bernard's team, even Greg was surprised but for a completely different reason from the students.
The moment Bernard gave him the list, and he collected it he immediately narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but look at Bernard with a scrutinizing gaze before looking around him to make sure everyone that was present were on the list they submitted, what surprised him the most was why Sonia would choose to join Bernard's team, considering the history she had with Aboriginals she should have wanted nothing to do with them, but there she was standing with Sophia and Bernard, as he continue going through their list he could see the roles each person took, making him even more surprised.
If not that he knew the rest of the teammates were not heirs of Aboriginals he would simply have thought the aboriginals were up to something again, after going through the list over and over to make sure he wasn't missing anything Greg eventually registered their team, as part of those going on the exploration. As they expected their team became the talk of the class but no one was really bothered, even if their team seemed irregular they didn't think much of it, however, what they didn't know was this was something that hadn't happened in the history of the academy before.
After that they soon went to their separate combat classes, just as he and Emelia opened the door of the weapon hall they suddenly noticed something, they couldn't help but slightly rub their eyes thinking they were just seeing things, but then to their greatest surprise they weren't seeing things, because they could see the numbers of students in weapon hall seemed to have multiplied several times, Bernard and Emelia looked at themselves, with surprised looks still on their expressions.
As they walked further into the weapon hall, they could see many new faces, but they didn't seem like they were interested in the weapon hall or even the weapons, judging from their expression both Bernard and Emelia could tell all they were interested in was the teacher Quzin, ever since that day he made the entire second years tuck their tails between their legs, he had become the talk of every second and first year's students.
So far he had been the only person to make the second years, cower in fear like that it was something that even the teachers couldn't do, although no one knew why they feared the old man to make them kneel before him, but they were sure the old man had a special identity in the academy that no one besides the second years and teachers of the academy knew about, at this moment everyone were sure the old man was very strong, but then they had no clue how strong he was.
But one question remained in their mind and that was what Sonia had said about his war name being able to scare any students shitless, it was without a doubt they had seen what happen to those who knew of his war name, so far they had not been able to discover any information about, it was like he didn't exist at all, everything about him seemed so far was scrambled, but that made the students even more excited and interested in him.
Although Quzin saw this, he acted like he saw nothing not because he didn't see them but because he didn't care, back then he had seen so many people scramble before him just to know his identity but compared to these students those people were much stronger and had powerful organizations behind them, yet they could only act respectful before him, he couldn't help but smile without realizing it himself he had become unbothered and unfazed.
Their training class still continued as usual, not even with the number of students increasing was the order of the class disturbed, everyone seem to be minding their own business, like before they were told to continue practicing independently and if they wanted to request for help they could do it politely, same with anyone who wanted to spar.
When Sonia heard this she couldn't help but look at Bernard, when she looked at him the scene of her losing kept replaying in her mind, yet for some reason, she had no idea how she lost. Meanwhile, Bernard could be seen with Emelia practicing together, just as they were practicing he could see someone walk up to him, when he saw who it was Bernard had a look of surprise on his expression, and couldn't help but wonder why she had come to him.
Was it that she didn't want to stay on his team any longer and wanted to leave? Bernard couldn't help but thought, while he was wondering why she was there she suddenly raised her spear at him, and said something that made both him and Emelia even more surprised, Bernard didn't know if she meant it or not, but then as he looked at her, he realize she wasn't joking, noticing Bernard wasn't really paying attention to her she furrowed her burrows and glare at him before saying again.
"Bernard, I want you to fight me."
