Once the exhausting trip to the shop was over, things returned to their regular course. Layla was busy with her studies once again.
Especially since the practical exam was coming up soon.
She planned to skip a grade, but to do that, and she needed to show incredible potential.
If Layla succeeded, she could enter the Central Magic Academy a few years early. She wanted to head there and grow her influence before the main characters were to enter that place.
However, that place required numerous achievements to enter if one did not pass the criterion.
On that note, none of the main characters had met that criterion. They had all been admitted due to 'special' circumstances of their powers, making them 'one-of-a-kind.'
That was also why the academy ignored most of their activities and the many classes they missed.
