"True. I didn't expect it to be this difficult. Do you think the women's academy will be just as hard?" Violet asked.

"No, the demand for spots at the women's academy will exceed the supply," Carissa replied.

Violet rested her chin in her hand. "Well, alright then. I'm in a bad mood now, so tonight, I'll have my four apprentices train harder."

Carissa laughed. "Sage Violet, go ahead and send out the notice. Your apprentices are all eager to learn martial arts."

Violet chuckled. "Kevin's the most diligent. That kid is relentless and his progress is fast. He's a great candidate for martial arts. If he had a mentor when he was younger, his skills would be impressive by now. As it is, he's a bit behind. But still, he's making progress." Later that evening, Carissa visited Silverstone Estate while Violet, with a small whip in hand, had her four apprentices train even harder.

Carissa sighed in relief, her face lighting up with a smile. "With your help, I can finally rest easy."
