[Eon's POV: ]
"Biggggggggg brotherrrrrr! Sisterrrrrrrr! Please take care~~!!"
Anna was crying as she hugged us one by one and the six of us could only smile sweetly at this little girl.
She was cute, and as everyone watched us with warm eyes, none of us could help but bow deeply toward them.
We were departing for the airship station and from there, we would be leaving for the academy.
There were Rein, Zoe, and me, and Alf, Carla, and Chry here, before our two normal-looking carriages.
Everyone was also here to send us off.
Mom and dad were here with a warm and confident gaze, already aware that we would be fine and have fun.
Aunt Aug was here and uncle El was already back at the academy. He was a teacher there after all.
Aunt Haze was crying like Anna, emotional that she won't see us for a while now. And uncle Theo was there to calm her just as usual.
Grandpa and grandma also had confident smiles as they looked at all of us. Already knowing we will be pretty famous in that unique place.
Rein's family was watching from a communication device and they all were confident too. Except for her mom, of course. She was like Anna and aunt Haze right now.
Sir Mel and lady Nissa were also here to send us off but as they looked at us, they had a nostalgic look and a subtle pitiful gaze.
They were finally seeing us leave after teaching us for so many years and being with us for so long. They knew we would be more than fine and have a good time but they pitied the opponents that would have to go against any of us.
'Maybe not Zoe as they had never seen her do anything but they had also never been able to gauge her in any aspect so maybe she too. But, we all sure were overpowered.'
At least in the basic aspect of academic excellence, we were well-qualified in our subjects.
We would be fine, but who would tell that to this little cute sister of mine who will only have these furballs, that big lizardman uncle, her big cat Taika, and the others?
How will this little soul live without her big brother and big sister?
"I think I should just stay-"
"Not happening darling."
Rein's voice was stern. Her plans of living with me would be crushed if we stayed here after all.
"Sister Zoeeeeee! Take careeeeeeeee!"
Yes. Anna and Zoe loved each other. Zoe would be fine but it would really be difficult for Anna to be without Zoe for long.
'But it will help in her growth.'
It was inevitable so we all just said our goodbyes and after a gentle last kiss from all of us, Anna finally calmed down and got ready to send us off with a smile.
"Be a good girl, take your meals properly, no too much cake; dad will be punished if I find out she got ill because of that; sleep well, study properly but not excessively, play with others, play by yourself, and if it ever becomes too much, just call me. I will come running, and drag big brother if it's necessary."
Zoe wiped the last lingering tears around her eyes and kissed her forehead.
"See you soon…"
After a last warm smile, Zoe got up and walked back towards our carriage.
"Be healthy everyone! Make new friends, and try to attend at least the compulsory classes!
You are good enough to handle yourself well, so I know you will all be fine~!
So take care of each other, shamelessly ask for help if you ever need it, don't hesitate to ask for anything if you ever need something from us, and Eon." Mom stopped and looked at me with a proud warm smile.
"Take care of everyone."
Her smile was the same as always and I just nodded back with the same smile.
"Don't worry. We will all be fine~."
My answer was enough for her so she just nodded and said her last words.
"Celes, Uto. Take care of your lovely masters~!"
And with that, she also waved her hand at us.
All their gazes were the same for us, and yes, for Chry, too.
"Stay well Chry! Don't think about the knightly duties too much while you are there and study more!
Get strong and better than others and thoroughly crush them so that you can bring glory to your and your master's name!" sir Mel shouted and everyone else laughed at those words. He sure was a true knight.
"No dumbass! What kind of advice is that? Chry! Don't listen to this fool… no, actually, do as he said. Crush your opponents and make sure everyone knows your name, and yes, the name of your master and your house."
Lady Nissa first slapped sir Mel's back but then agreed with his words, adding even more fuel to the previous words.
And the strict young knight of mine bowed deeply with a moved smile on his face.
He knew everyone considered him one of them, as well as that he was part of this small family of ours, but his revenge was still blocking him from entirely becoming one of us.
That thing was deep and complicated, so I needed some time and he believed in me a little too much.
He was a unique case but he was still as good as these two cousins of mine.
It was good and all, and Anna liked him as much as us, even called him big brother, so he had a unique attachment to this adorable girl like us.
So… that was us, and we were now leaving for the airship station.
The academy entrance exam was a unique and unpredictable event so the three of them would have to clear that thing but as Zoe, Rein, and I were already in clear… no.
'The specially admitted students also at least have to take part in the entrance exam and the new council members have their own tasks so none of us actually would be free when we get there.'
Rein and I was student council members and right now, we were in our unique Lucifer and Uriel disguise.
Most of the people here didn't know about the council fact so they were only aware of the fact that we would attend the academy for fun in this unique disguise of ours.
Carla, Alf, and Chry already promised they wouldn't know us once we were there, so things were fine.
It wasn't like we were going to have this peace of ours for long anyway. People will naturally know our identities soon so at most, we had a year to three to this life of peace as some random people.
It will be fun and we all were looking forward to it so…
"Ba-bye everyone~!"
As the carriages set off, we rode towards a fun airship ride to the great island of magic's wealth and the grand academy of time.
The four of us had the experience of riding the airships but Zoe and Chry were going to the capital's magnificent airship station for the first time.
It was a fine place, vast enough to be visible from the sky above the capital, and the airships there were also quite fascinating.
The station here was one of the finest in the continent so many people traveled to the capital for the day of the academy entrance exam.
The academy itself was closed off before the exam date and it was strongly advised that people wishing to give the test also board the special airship leading to the academy island on the day of the test.
The test itself was conducted on these airships many times so it was natural that people boarded the special ship for the academy exam on the test day.
It was mostly uncertain though so people didn't care about it much.
The four of them aside from me and Zoe also didn't care about this stuff so it was even more surprising when…
[ "Hohoho! Welcome, young and passionate people! Thanks for joining us in this great 3693rd entrance exam~! The test will start in a bit so be prepared~! Hahaha!" ]
Yeah. This time, they were going to probably have to give this entrance test while being on these airships, far above the ground level, and they weren't the only ones facing sudden problems like them…
[ "Hehe. Hello, new batch of hand-picked elites~. I believe at least some of you might have heard about me but for those who don't know, I'm your awesome and legen—dary student council president~!
I know a bit about you and am dying to meet with you all but for now, the vice president will give you your very first assignment~! Do well everyone. We all are watching~~!" ]
Yeah. That was the president and our superior so Rein and I were going to probably have to do a good lot of work now.
'Well, fuck…'
"Well, what the fuck…"
Even Rein, who was only thinking about how the two of us will live together, was surprised by the whole new scenario.
Not only our airship but also other eight ships like ours, which were now flying in sync with us, and held tens of thousands of people wishing to give the entrance exam, were now going to have to give their exams tens of thousands of meters above the ground, and we had some harder task to deal with…
'How the hell did it get to this?'
Of course, I knew it. But it was long, and there were many things that actually led us to this point.
And it all started when…
