*Everyone starts rushing towards the forested area of the academy to escape the attack, not knowing if there were Mana Bombs in there or not. Rowan was somehow able to get out of the stadium, but he was now regretting not letting things play as they should have. He and his friends were bearly able to reach the forests to divert the direction of the escape, being successful in lets most out of the academy. Explosions rang out in the whole academy, most of the structures were damaged from lightly to having nearly half of it just missing. The professors and academy staff were still trying to get the condition under control, but the attack from Demon Worshippers just kept getting worse. The only areas of the academy unharmed were the forested areas which housed elves and the mountains by the side that housed dwarves. Even after all the guests were out and the academy's staff including the principal were fighting the intruders, the Holy Church was no were in sight. Most of the seniors who were back to see what kind of juniors they were having that year were also actively getting involved in protecting what remained of the academy. Even though all this, one thing was clear and that was either the Holy Church were taking care of the Heretics somewhere else or they didn't get involved with the Academy for whatever reasons.
It seemed that it was not the latter at least as Holy Church's Paladins flooded in after the academy had already suffered quite devastating damages. The negligence was very much there but on the academy's side and the church's side. Most Heretics were captured or killed with a small part of their stronger forces escaping with damages. Both sides had taken a beating which didn't include the Holy Church. It was later published that the Church's warriors were disposing off Heretics in the Capital to block the heretic's escape route but in reality nothing was set in stone because no one really have any proof and any other choice then to just agree with what was being said. While all this was going on, most forgot about the monsters that were being used to the Final Exams, which soon started to break free from their cages during the Chaos being used as a last disaster before the heretics escaped. The academy didn't lose anything more then their buildings but most professors were injured, but non were really dead with some of the senior students also suffered some injuries. The real damages were on the junior student side as their Final Exams were ruined, leading to revaluation exams and some of the students leaving because of injuries from the Chaos.
Then were the Re Exams for the junior students, not including the hero and his certified party who were clearly being favored by the academy were planned after the basic fixes were done. More things that happened were that the academy decided to increase their security, requesting support from the Holy Church and the Emperor which was agreed on for the Empire's image and the Emperor. Then came the Mages, Workers and a lot of construction. While all that was going on, the Revaluation of the Exam was happening at an dungeon under the supervisor of the professors who were still functional to say. After the Re Exams, everyone left moved on to the next season, Rowan's plan worked as he wasn't asked of many questions before getting allowed for acting as Adventurers under the name of the Academy, a system for collecting credits for the time when the students enter the Empire's Army in their fight against the Demons. Among all this chaos, the Demon Lord was surprising not having much issues keeping his forces on a more defensive end of combat, with next to no active attacks against humans. While the Demon Lord's Daughter started her training of Dark Magic, Swordsmanship and other skills under the Demon Lord's Strongest Forces, the Demonic Generals.
Rowan, on the other hand had already started to prepare for becoming the Hero's Doom. After the Final's results came thought officially and all the students had made their choices for the subjects they wanted to do or in Rowan's case, get Credits for the Future, the breaks finally come thought. All of Rowan's Party or "Friends" accompanied him. The Evenfall Dukedom was having a giant celebration for their Young Master's return from the academy. Rowan was dying from the embarrassment, while everyone who didn't know that Rowan was the Young Duke of Evenfall was in utter shock and disbelief. Rowan's nature in the academy had been mysterious, but kind, caring and down to earth which for sure didn't match the persona of the Sole Heir of one of the most prominent Dukedom, also consider the Sword of the Emperor, the Evenfall Dukedom. Aaron being an orphan didn't quite know what to say after finding out his "friend"'s identity, Miya didn't have the liberty to go back to where she came from so took Rowan's offer but now was mesmerised by the festival like atmosphere for Rowan's welcome, Magnus's family has shifted under the Dukedom and were working under the Duke's head chief being a family of cooks, Armia had decided to follow Rowan back for two reason being that she was starting to run out of money and she want to see Rowan's origin conforming that following him was the correct choice as told by her powers, Cain didn't follow because he wanted to apply for the Emperor's Shadow Forces and lastly Samantha decided to not return to the Elven Kingdom in case any elves from the academy had returned this year then she didn't wanted to be found out. Oddly enough, Samantha was the only one who came as she wanted to stay by the one chosen to save the world and non other reason, being the only one who she trusted among humans, she was also there as she thought experiencing human traditions would help her fit in more in case they had to go for missions solo or with the party. She was also the only one who knew that Rowan was not just kind, but also calculated and strategical*
