"Interesting…"

The sudden appearance of the members of the Evanescent Vessels astounded Kyle. However, after a moment of thought, he felt that this is also understandable since these noble families can't bring their private guards inside the Academy.

In exchange for this, the Academy Officials would guarantee the safety of the students as long as they are within the territory of Vermont Academy.

Aside from the Academy's Credence and Ethics Committee which is composed of highly qualified students. There is also the Academy's Supernatural Security Force that protects everyone inside the Academy walls. Kyle wasn't exactly sure about this Security Force but he knows that they weren't people to mess with.

Anyway, when it comes to external affairs, the Academy had partnered with the Order of the Evanescent Vessels to protect them which should be the most reliable force out there.

Well, Kyle previously learned how great this organization was… According to Mr. Heinz, there are only three organizations among the 12 Factions that could equal the Evanescent Vessels.

It was the Untainted Sentinels of the Holy Arts Faction, the Lore Hunters of the Elemental Arts Faction, and the Illustrious Liquidators of the Mystic Arts Faction…

If the masked figures weren't from those three factions, their only option is to run once the Vessels have appeared.

Whom~

Suddenly, he felt waves of energy and it seems quite familiar to him…

'Field Distortion? A weaker one? I guess this is not a big deal…' Kyle muttered as he realized that the previous area of the incident become "normal" in his eyes or everyone's eyes…

After 3 minutes or so, before his tea has even arrived, he realized that the battle was already over. He may not have seen the battle because the place seems to have been distorted but he knows that numerous dark spells were used just now… He can tell this much because the restless energy surrounding the street had started calming down.

'I wonder how long this distortion was… I want to see the result…' Kyle mused as he looked at the pedestrians who seem to disregard the "normal scene" on the road where the carriage exploded.

Well, the distortion that he mentioned was the method of isolation that the Vessel did just now. That's right, the Vessels isolated the battlefield from ordinary people using distortion or perhaps through the illusion that they've made. This level of distortion is enough to stop ordinary people from entering the perimeter and make them think that everything is normal.

Kyle had previously seen them use a similar technique but instead of this low-level field distortion, what he saw that time was a huge shadow dome. It was when the Untainted Sentinels attacked the dockyard a year ago.

However, since the enemies today are quite weak, the Vessels didn't use that high-level distortion and instead, use this "illusion"…

It can be easily broken by experts but it's certainly enough to fool ordinary citizens… including him if he wasn't aware of this isolation method.

"Here's your tea, Sir."

The kind waitress served his tea and Kyle gently nodded to thank her. As Kyle returned his gaze to the window, he confirmed that the distortion was gone… What was left was the broken fancy carriage on the streets.

The horses had even conveniently vanished!

There are already a few police officers handling the scene and Kyle could no longer see any members of the Vessels or the masked robbers.

"Eh?"

Suddenly, Kyle noticed that a young girl hurriedly approached the broken carriage. This young girl wearing a graceful blue dress and feathered hat, or perhaps a fascinator hat, appears quite delicate as she ordered the police to take something out of the carriage.

It appears that she had forgotten her luggage inside so she had to return and take it.

Although Kyle was in a distance, he can guess that this girl is the one who was ambushed just now.

Of course, he only felt a little interested since she might be his classmate later on. In addition, he wanted to remember her face. He wanted to ensure not to get entangled with her since she looks like she will bring a lot of trouble to those people surrounding her.

She hasn't even entered the academy and she already caused one!

As the girl left the scene, Kyle also finished his tea and paid for it before leaving.

'Well, I'm not hoping that corpses are to be sent to the workshop. Ahem… I just want to help Manager Celia since she wasn't used to the job yet.' Kyle reasoned in his mind as he hurriedly returned to the workshop.

However, there are no corpses that were delivered yet. It might be delayed or it was sent to other facilities instead.

It was quite unfortunate but he didn't think too much of it. In any case, he already possesses a decent amount of points in each of his attributes.

***

Days passed quickly and it is now Sunday, the 6th of May. Tomorrow would be the entrance ceremony so Kyle can now enter the Vermont Academy. He may have been able to enter at an earlier date but he decided not to because he wanted to help Manager Celia with any corpse delivery.

He looked at his room in his workshop one last time.

Well, he wouldn't miss this room, a room without any windows. So he carried his luggage and locked the room quickly.

He then returned the keys to the laboratory. He looked for the Manager but she hasn't arrived yet since it was still quite early.

Before leaving the workshop, Kyle looked at himself in the mirror that was in the hallway.

Thanks to all the nutritious meals served in the workshop, he grew up quite well for a 14-year-old like him… He looked at his short black hair, his black eyes filled with vigor, the new vest on top of his shirt, and his gray overcoat before he nodded in satisfaction.

He couldn't comment much on his face but he can say that his appearance is more pleasing to the eye than his appearance in his previous life.

Soon, he arrived in front of the Academy and realized that many students at his age were arriving as well. He had even seen a few unfamiliar airships waiting for their turn to land at the dockyard.

Kyle looked ahead and waited for his turn to be checked by the guards. There were more than twenty people in the queue when he arrived but it shouldn't take long before his turn.

After all, they only needed to briefly show their proof of acceptance.

When it was his turn, he realized that more than 30 people is already lining up… It seems that it is a busy weekend for the Academy.

Without waiting for the guard to speak, Kyle showed an emblem he was keeping in his coat's inner pocket.

He only needed to show the emblem that was given to him by Mr. Heinz some time ago and he can already enter.

"Oh…" The guard looked at the brass emblem engraved with the insignia of the Vermont Academy before shifting his gaze to Kyle to have a good look on his face.

To Kyle's surprise, even the few students behind him had also reacted as soon as he had shown the emblem.
