I woke up before the alarm rang that day, probably because I had gotten enough sleep the last couple days. I laid in bed and didn't want to move so I wouldn't wake up Emilia who was still right beside me. She had a grin on her face and slept soundly.
"Why can't every day for the rest of my life be this peaceful? I could really get used to living like this but once we have our next test, we will have to go on missions which will be the end for our peaceful life here. The missions shouldn't be too dangerous at first but there still seem to be some causalities every year. From the gossip I heard, roughly 10% of first years don't make it out of those alive. And the causality rate only goes up with the later school years. The military doesn't bat an eye on this however because they only want the strongest hybrids anyway. Truly a survival of the strongest", I thought and in the meantime the alarm started ringing.
