While the Warriors get an Ascension Exams that requires them to fight deadly battles with divine beasts once they reach the Upper Years.....
The Scholars have this 7-day examinations called the Scholastic Exams to serve as their own test for how much they improved since the Lower Years.
At the very beginning of his 4th year, Ronin walked into the classroom with every single students with their nose deep into their books, reading and reading for this prestigious examination.
He just walked into his desk and spent his time staring off the window.
"You're not going to study, Ronin?"
He turned, and saw that Edelweiss was looking at him with a judging look.
(He has been in a daze for a long while... I did not want to talk to him ever since he and Cermin became friends, but....)
(Could something have happened between them? Could Cermin have done something to him that made him suddenly become so..... quiet?)
Ronin raised an eyebrow at her concern. But then again, it made sense.
