The Martial Unity

A large number of Martial Apprentices left the Serevian Dungeon as the cope for conflict in that territory had gone almost completely. Each of these Martial Apprentices was simply no longer necessary.

"What do all of you plan to do when you get back?" Rui asked.

"I plan on increasing my ability to cope against a greater number of Martial Apprentices," Fae replied. "The Serevian Dungeon has shown me that I'm ill-prepared to handle such circumstances, and that is quite concerning. In the real world, it's not impossible to run into such scenarios. I might end up perishing due to my inability to handle it."

"That's a good initiative." Rui nodded. Fae was a powerful close-quarters palm striker. Increasing her ability to handle multiple opponents was something she had mentioned before.

"I think I might leave the Academy," Kane replied.

Rui raised an eyebrow in surprise. Not because he didn't think Kane was ready. Kane was incredibly powerful as he was right now, stronger than he might have been able to deal with prior to his last training session.

However, if Kane left the Academy, he would have to return back to his family, in all likelihood, something Kane would despise having to do.

"Are you sure?" He asked cautiously.

"I'm seriously considering it." Kane sighed. "The Academy is becoming stuffy and suffocating, I don't want to hide in there forever."
