'Only the Fire ore is left. I'm so close!' Shang thought with burning eyes.

He was so very close!

'To keep everything about myself hidden, I need to purchase the Fire ore on the market with gold. I can explain the Light ore I bought with a friend, but no one would want to keep a Fire Affinity hidden. It just wouldn't make sense.'

'The merchants are not here yet. They will only arrive near noon. Until then, I should find something to do.'

Shang thought about training, but that wouldn't help much. The last time he had tried to combine techniques, he had seen that there was no way to advance further. He needed practical experience and feedback from a teacher to advance in that department.

Shang could train in his Affinity, but he believed that there were better uses for his endeavor.

So, Shang took out the schedule for the lessons and checked which lessons would take place soon. He could fit in a lesson.

There were only two lessons, which would both start in about half an hour.

One of them was a theoretical lesson for future officers, which was something Shang wasn't interested in.

The other one was a theoretical lesson for the Anti-Mages, the red uniforms.

This piqued Shang's interest.

Shang knew that he would need to fight Mages sooner or later.

However, Shang had only seen a single Mage fight up to now, and that fight had also taken place far away.

'Well, that seems interesting. I should check it out.'

As Shang stood up, he ignored the bloodied face that had appeared in his vision again and left. He didn't have to walk very far since the lesson took place on the third floor of the main building.

When Shang arrived, he noticed that the door was open, and he entered.

It was a normal room for lectures. There was nothing special about it.

Shang saw two students with red robes sitting in the middle of the left half of the room.

They were not talking with each other.

Shang glanced at them, and as if they had felt Shang's glance, they glanced back.

For a short moment, their eyes met.

And then, the two students looked away again with bored expressions.
