Chapter 99: Moving to a New Location

"Hey! Look over there at those two! Isn't that Sword Emperor Leo and the Witch of Necromancy? Why are they fighting those Blood-Eyed Howlers together? Don't tell me that they'd teamed up for the training course!"

A group of students happened to come across Leo and Nina fighting a group of Blood-Eyed Howlers, so they stopped to watch.

"Leo and Nina Wraith, huh? I heard the rumors the day before the training course started, but I didn't believe it."

"What an odd pair. Nina went solo for the last two years, right? What made her change her mind this year? And why have Leo as her partner?"

"Only they know. Unless you want to ask them."

"Nah, I'll pass."

"Whoa! Did you guys see that?! Leo decapitated that Blood-Eyed Howler with a single swing of his sword! I thought he was injured?!" The students were surprised to see his prowess that was the opposite of the rumors.
