Chapter 114: Marked

Karl waved to the cleric as he got the team moving. "False alarm. It is probably the students. We had an encounter with a Holy Relic, remember? They've grown much more than expected in the last few days." 

"They're from our school. Those two are professors, not High Priests, but strong with Holy Magic. I don't know the guards, but the other students are familiar faces. I didn't know that they were out here as well. The High Priest only told us we were leaving, not anything else." The cleric boy with them explained.

"Well, at least we can confirm that they're really clerics. Let's get there and get settled in for some storytelling. They are not going to let us just silently board the train without giving them all the details. I hope that you are ready to relive the dangerous parts." Karl whispered back.

"I think so. It's not my favourite memory, but I doubt that I'm going to panic if I happen to remember it." The boy replied.
