Arslan was still shocked for seeing Eliza in front of him. In the beginning, when Arslan entered the Academy, he was a very talkative person. After living for 8 years in the River residence, he had finally the chance to meet people of his age and maybe build strong relationships such as friendship. This is what he thought when he gladly accepted the possibility given to him by the Rivers to enter the most prestigious Academy in the continent... but he was wrong.
"Here, Arslan. This is your dwelling from today onwards." A vicious voice said while the body it came from indicated with a hand the half-destroyed wooden building in front of Arslan.
"I see, thanks Elder Oak." Arslan looked at the shabby place with wide-open eyes. He expected much more from it, by being the son of the Pillar of the Empire.
He thought that everyone loved his father for protecting the country for so long. Yet, what he could see, was exactly the opposite.
