[OP: ]
The class for the students ended soon and by the time the students had got up to leave, or go and talk with those mysterious people the knight captain was accompanying, all five of them had gone out.
The students even searched the ground floor and even outside for some kind of clues but, there was no trace of either the knight captain or the four special people that they all were curious about.
"The young ones..."
By the time the students thought about searching on the second floor, the five of them were already done looking at everything they wanted there and had moved up to the third floor and were looking down on the children that were still searching for them.
"They wanted to talk with you. Even the saint of Meyat did."
"If fate allows it, we will have a chat someday. Though, for now, we must finish what we have left."
The first floor of Kaksha only contained the kitchen area, the study area, the dorms, and the classrooms.
From the second floor, there were special classrooms used for the various classes like the classes for the knights and the classes for the priests.
There were individuals with various talents and kind of unique abilities preset here, so the second floor was a place where their training took place.
"Right... fate..."
They weren't places that they needed to show up and disturb everyone present.
The real learning that was going to be the most important and practical to them happened here, so, they used their invisibility this time to quickly go through all the classes and evaluate them one by one.
"Alright then. Now..."
They were almost done with their work here, and the only place left to check was the third floor that was only accessible to the people who worked here, the higher authorities like himself, and since this floor contained some important places that stored important information about this institution and many other things, not just anyone could enter here.
Students were restricted access to this place so no one was going to arrive here, and since they all knew that as well the knight captain now had full confidence in their identity.
"We will have to go and do individual observations now." The purple hooded lady spoke up while walking towards the stairs leading down.
"You can accompany one of us at a time, however, we'd advise you to keep your distance from us when you do so." The one in the golden hood spoke up after her and walked towards the back of this floor where an indoor garden was situated.
"Don't be a fool." Warned the green hooded lady and instead of walking anywhere else, she jumped up on the railing of the floor, and jumped down.
He knew she was going to be fine since, well, jumping down from just that much distance was going to do nothing to a superhuman like them.
They weren't normal humans that only this much distance would do anything to. If anything, they were strong enough to fight even someone like him.
Or... perhaps not.
He didn't knew how much stronger they were compared to him in terms of pure strength but, he knew for certain their wisdom, their experience with their divinities, and their understanding of the Truth that all beings crave of is of the highest degree there could ever be.
"Alright."
They were elders and not knights or mages.
They might be very, very good with what they did, but he did not know just how much they were capable of when it comes to physical things like strength, destructive power, or in terms of other skills.
They were mysterious people, as he had found out after this whole time, and as he knew from the stories, since they were on the stage of individual observations now, their visit was going to conclude soon.
"I should watch them."
He had learned a number of things from them today and it was still early evening.
He should not be thinking of anything at all right now. There was nothing to think so deeply about in the first place.
And yet here he was...
[{ "Two." }]
Thinking instead of going after the four of them so that he could learn more from them-...
'Wait. What was the color of their robes again?'
Standing in the hallway of the third floor of Kaksha, the knight captain that was duty bound to protect every individual, every being present in this place, opened his eyes.
'And what was the color of their robes when they entered inside through the gates?'
In the first place, why did they need the knight captain of this place as their escorts when they could have just asked for the other higher authorities?
Knowing them, it shouldn't have been a random act, he was certain of that much.
There were various famous and more important people here that they could have taken as their guides.
But, why the knight captain?
Why would the elders that-...
'Wait.'
Now that he thought about it, where did he learn about these people called Elders from?
'When did I...?'
He couldn't remember when he had read the texts that gave information about the secret Elders that were the best of the best of their Faith, were flowers of the gods that had served them for long enough to have reached the state of enlightenment...
Logically, these people all should be stigma holders if they had such close relationships with their gods and if not that, they should have been blessed by a portion of their divinity at the very least.
And yet, the spell that they used to conceal themselves when entering those important places like kitchen and classrooms only had an extreme concentration of light energy.
It wasn't even the holy energy but the most basic light...
'What was written in that letter they sent to me?'
A sudden thought crossed his mind as his eyes became wide open all of a sudden and he took out the piece of paper that he had revived from the knight that they had handed it over to.
[{ "Get ready." }]
He opened the envelope that he had closed himself and took out the piece of paper that contained only one sentence according to his memories.
'What the...'
But, now that he was looking back at the piece of paper in his hand, his eyes could not see any words, let alone a sentence on it.
Though...
"My God..."
There were some residual traces of Mana so faint it was nearly impossible to notice it, still hanging Inside of the piece of paper.
[{ "Starting Stage Two. Execute command-line 1" }]
And this... was no good thing.
