Chapter 138: Chapter 138 Hero Academy once again.

A night has passed, and Hina, who was bathed by the grace of the sunlight in her hotel room, was doing some light workout as it happened to cross her mind when she woke up in the morning.

If she thinks it through, Soma always does the exercise every morning without fail, which also motivates Hina to keep striving to get stronger, for she has already set a new goal in her heart.

Hina is currently doing a squat. Her knees, which already tremble, bend forward with a straight posture. She regulated her breathing, then gritted her teeth as she tensed her tight muscles to bring her heavy torso up.

"...Fifty. fuuuh".

After finishing the fifty reps without resting, Hina exhaled as her body started to get sticky from the sweat. She took a mineral bottle on the table, trying to replenish her lost body fluid as she turned the knap and put the head on her lips.

A beeping sound rang in the room, which alarmed her for the incoming mail. She ceased her activity and took her phone that lay on the bed. When she lit the display, the email came from Hero Academy.

With a disinterested expression on her face. Hina started to unlock her phone and saw the content of the email.

{XXXXXX}

{Subject: The Entrance Exam Result}

Dear Akabane Hina,

We are delighted to inform you that you have successfully passed your entrance exam. Congratulations on your achievement, and welcome to Hero Academy.

….

"...I passed".

Hina, don't know why, but the elated feeling she had in waiting for the result of the exam was already dismissed. The other day, she was so enthusiastic in wanting to know the test result, but the current Hina feels different. She wondered why. Is it because of the absence of Soma?

"So, I need to go to the Academy to get my uniform".

With the new destination on her head. Hina drank the mineral in her hands, emptying it in one go before moving her legs to go to the bathroom to freshen up.

"Mom!".

Hina, who was already freshened up and wearing her middle school attire, stood in front of her parents' hotel suite. A moment later, Hisako creaked open the door and peeked outside to find Hina in her uniform, ready to go.

"Hina? What is all of this".

Hisako, wondering what was happening. She tilted her head to the side as she fully opened the door. Hina, who didn't want to explain, showed her mother the email she received from the academy, making Hisako bloated her eyes.

"Amazing. Congratulations, Hina. Let me prepare in a moment. Do you want to go with us three?".

Upon mentioning three. Hina knitted her brows as she felt uncomfortable.

"...".

Hisako was at a loss for words, and she couldn't say a single word upon witnessing her daughter, who was still sulking. She sighed and then scratched her head before telling her.

"...Okay, wait for me in the lobby".

"Okay".

Hina put the phone in her pocket, then turned her body, walking in the empty hallway. She stood in front of the elevator, waiting for it to open, and with a beeping sound, the elevator door opened, which invited her to enter inside and go down to the lobby.

Another beeping sound resounded, and the door on the elevator opened, revealing the not-too-crowded lobby. She ignored other people's gazes and walked past the lobby before she found herself sitting in the waiting room.

Thirty minutes later, Hisako dressed up with her red hair straight down, wearing a white blouse and blue cardigan. For her lower part, she wore blue jeans and black heels and approached Hina's side.

"Hina, shall we go?".

Hina nodded her head, and the two of them started to head toward their destination. In front of the hotel building, the two of them attracted many glances, which was already a usual thing for them. Then, after waiting for a minute, a blue car stopped before them, and one of the car's windows opened, revealing the driver inside.

"Miss, where do you want to go?".

A middle-aged man in his mid-forties spoke cheerfully.

"We want to go to the Hero Academy".

"Hero Academy?! You are one lucky miss. Because I heard the bridge was already repaired for the accident that blew it up last night".

Hina's body twitched for the information from the oblivious man. But she held herself back and threw her gaze to the side.

"Is that so? So can you drive us there?".

"Hop in!".

"Thanks. Hina, let's go".

Hisako opened the passenger door, and Hina entered first before being followed by her.

"Alright, miss. Buckle up".

Seeing his two passengers finish putting on their seatbelts, the driver stepped onto the gas pedal, slightly accelerated, driving on the not-too-crowded main road. Enjoying the morning view of the east district.

Along the way, the driver starts a small conversation with Hisako. As an adult, she begins to interact with him, albeit not all the questions she answers. Hina, on the other hand, cast her gaze outside, keeping her mouth silent, while instead, she remembered the spell from the grimoire her mother lent to her last night.

After driving for about thirty minutes, they arrived at the bridges that connected the two districts. Hina, who remembered this place clearly from the story her father told last night, knitted her brows, searching for exactly the place that was newly built.

"Hee, so they are currently doing the small work".

Hina jerked her head to the front, hearing the driver rambling about the new road. She could see the brand new side of the road and many workers doing small work installing minor things.

Hisako was also curious about the newly built road, so she cast her gaze outside and nodded her head as she finally understood the story that her husband had told last night was real. Even she could still faintly trace a Mana turbulence in the surrounding area.

"Mom?".

"Nothing…".

After another half an hour passed, they finally stopped the car in front of a majestic wall that was erected like a fortress standing tall, protecting the academy. Hina twisted the passenger door, opening it as she stepped out to smell the fresh air before closing the door.

Hisako, who finished with the transaction, walked out and then regrouped with Hina. In front of them, the place seems busy with many other students along with their parents, like them, who may be passing the exam. But the amount decreased a little from the exam day.

"Let's go, Hina".

Hisako, who is already used to the sight, grabs Hina's hand, and they start to enter the academy.

"For the new student, We welcome you, and please go to the academy office, for you will be receiving your uniform and book about the academy".

A bright and loud voice came from an upperclassman who stood in the middle of the intersection of the road wearing an arrow sign that pointed toward the office. Bringing joy as the new students looked at the upperclassmen's enthusiasm.

They began to follow the upperclassmen's direction and, after walking for a few minutes. They finally arrive in front of the office where the new students receive their uniforms.

The building was big and tall, built using the medieval European school's architecture, with a big twin door that could accommodate many students in and out.

Hina and Hisako saw the other students also enter with their parents, so they, too, started to move their feet. Upon entering the room, they were welcomed by the high ceiling, and a huge chandelier hung above. Beside them were many windows with colorful glass erected, giving antique nuances, bustling with people.

In the innermost part of the room, there is a long counter where the students face a staff from the school, receiving their uniform and a book. Hina started to approach one of the staff that was empty from another new student, followed by Hisako. She stood before a woman in her mid-twenties with purple hair, smiling at Hina while wearing a uniform the academy had prepared.

"May I help you, young miss?".

"Yes, I am here to take my uniform".

As Hina began to explain, Hina also took out her phone and showed the email she received in the morning to the staff. The staff nodded her head before starting with the procedure. Her hand swiftly scribbled on a piece of paper before she took a book and two sets of uniforms.

"Here you go, young miss, for the other uniform, you will be informed later. Because, for the next three months, you will be wearing this spring uniform and the uniform is also used for attending your opening ceremony that will be held in April".

"Yes, thank you. Um, can I?...".

"Yes?".

Hisako and the staff tilted their head at the hesitating Hina. Hina inhaled a deep breath before exhaling it in one go and spoke her mind.

"Can you please check if the person named Soma has passed the entrance exam, and if he is indeed passed tge exam. Could you please give me, his uniform as well?".
