Once the sun started to gradually descend toward the horizon and after we ate our lunch, my family, including Sophia, Mary, and Gabrielle, rode in a magic carriage and went to the academy. The outside was cold and a bit snowy, so it was better for us to move on wheels.
Upon arriving at the academy, we parked our carriage in the wide parking space of the institution. The modes of transportation in this world were mostly animal or monster-drawn, which meant a single vehicle took up much more space than on Earth's.
Since it would be a special day for the students as well as their parents, the space was congested with the luxurious vehicles of many nobles. Thankfully, we managed to find a vacant space.
Covered by our thick garments to keep ourselves warm, we then walked our way toward the auditorium, where the recognition and graduation ceremonies were held. My sister just finished her first year, so she will be participating in the former.
