Adrian's POV:
______
The week ended, and we got a one-week holiday. Even though this world didn't celebrate New Year, the academy still gave us a break, perhaps to let everyone rest and prepare for the upcoming competition. The timing was perfect, giving me a chance to focus on gathering the materials for Senior Anya and plan something special for Aria.
I collected half of the materials on the list and today, I will collect all in one go. Because the place I'm going to will sell everything I need. I also plan to visit a clothing shop to buy myself a good winter outfit for a date.
Since the academy is under the protection of a powerful barrier spell, no rain or snow can get through the barrier. So the weather in the academy is always cool. But outside of the academy, the winter weather was in full force, with snow blanketing the ground and a crisp chill in the air.
