The Author's POV

"It's about the multi-academy exchange"

Listening to Donna, I couldn't help but massage my forehead.

...damn, with everything that had been going on lately, I forgot all about this.

hmmm, well, more than me forgetting about this, it was more like it slipped my mind. After all, we still had a couple of more months before this event would happen.

"As most of you know, during the month of March, we will have exchange students staying at the Lock for a month in preparation for the Multi-Academy youth tournament"

"This time, the academy has decided that only students from the four great academies will participate in the exchange, as the district and regional academies have agreed to exchange with one another..."

Listening to Donna speak, I couldn't help but find my brows knitting slightly.

The four great academies.

The four other human academies that could almost rival the Lock in terms of their educational system. Though they weren't on the same level, they were the closest substitute out there.

"Lutwik academy, Theodora academy, Kuzk academy, Vellon academy..."

Those were the names of the four great academies.

The human domain had five great cities. Ashton city, Park city, Lewington city, Dromeda city, and Conviction city.

Altough each city wasn't far from each other, because of the threat coming from beasts and villains along the way, it took about five hours for a person to make it to one of those cities. With Ashton city being the reference point.

Thus, if a person from one of those cities wanted to send their child to the Lock, they would have to send them all the way to Ashton city.

As a result of this, they may not be able to see their children for a very long time...

Some people were willing to do that for the sake of their children's future, whilst some couldn't do it.

Be it for economical problems, or the fact that they couldn't part ways with their children, some just couldn't send them all the way to Ashton city to make them join the Lock.

...and that became an issue.

A lot of talents weren't being nurtured properly.

Very talented individuals that could rival some of the most talented people in the Lock were being provided with lower-end education.

This was a big problem that cost humanity a lot of talented people.
