Unaware of the hidden conversations unfolding behind closed doors, Licht simply resumed his routine, attending the remaining classes at the Academy as if nothing had happened.
But even though the school day had ended, his work was far from over.
His earlier fight had revealed something troubling. His strength was completely conditional.
And worse, it had a fatal flaw.

He would have to train relentlessly

As the top-ranked cadet, he had exclusive access to the elite facilities—private, state-of-the-art training chambers reserved for the academy's best.
