A Quiet Farewell
He sighed softly.
"Hey, Senior Brother..."
"It's only been a few days since we last met."
"How did you end up like this..."
A cold breeze swept across the devastated battlefield, carrying with it the scent of blood and scorched earth.
The battle was over.
The cries of war had faded.
Only silence remained.
Although Celestis Academy had emerged victorious from this brutal conflict, victory carried a heavy price. Compared to the complete destruction of Sky Breaker Academy, their losses were few—but that did not make the pain any easier to bear.
The death of Shera weighed upon everyone's heart like a mountain.
Around his body, the elders and students of Celestis Academy stood in solemn silence.
No one spoke.
No one celebrated.
The sorrow lingering in the air was heavier than the countless corpses scattered across the battlefield.
Shera had always appeared stern and unyielding.
He rarely praised anyone.
He rarely smiled.
