My name is Ming Cale, and I'm a student from the outer branch. Our tasks are cleaning, cooking and repairing the training equipment. In short, we are servants. Most of those in the branch are poor young men with shallow talents in fighting and science who joined the branch to earn a living and become future soldiers or guards.
But as I said, most of them, but not all of them, I am different. I am a man with a plan for the future. Although not everyone who fails the entrance exam necessarily means that they lack talent, some have spirits forms with a poor growth rate or circumstances that did not allow them to focus on training early.
Those people resort to the second-class academies, which use autumn water springs instead of spirit stones in their training. The student bathes once a month in these waters, which is equivalent to the energy provided by five spirits stones.
