Today was the day that Eva would officially be graduating from Adventurer's School and earn her D Rank with the guild.
It was hard to believe that a few months had gone by since that first day in the Capital. She had distracted herself with new tasks at school to forget the crippling depression that needing to leave Lucas had caused.
'This is what you wanted Eva. Feeling depressed and hurt now still won't change your decision.'
She had told herself this many times, but it never made her feel better. Gripping the hilt of the sword that Lucas gave her, she waited for the speech the headmaster was dragging on to be over.
By graduating with the school she was able to get valuable experience and jump up two guild ranks. The last few months she had managed to outshine the other students thanks to Lucas' teachings.
