Kaito: (excited) Yamato, Emily, I have heard of a competition that could change everything for me. Will you join me on this adventure to the Royal Academy?

Yamato: (skeptical) Isn't the school meant for royals only? How do you think we will make it in?

Emily: (concerned) He's right, Kaito. Even if it's open to both royals and non-royals, what makes you so sure that we have a chance against the Royal elite? Rumors say that the Royals' power and mana levels are much higher than those of non-royals.

Kaito: (determined) I understand your concerns, but I believe in us. The strength of our bond and our determination to succeed will defy all odds. We have trained tirelessly and mastered our summoning skills. Together, we can overcome any obstacles that come our way.

Yamato: (thoughtful) Perhaps you're onto something, Kaito. Our unity and unwavering friendship might just be our greatest asset in this competition.

Emily: (encouraged) If Kaito believes in us, then I do too. Let's show them that true power comes from the heart, not just from royal lineage or status.

Mother: Of course, you can ask.

Kaito: You see, I heard about a competition in the Royal capital, and I want to participate.

Mother: But, Kaito, that school is only for royals. And even if non-royals could enter, how do you plan to compete against them?

Kaito: I believe in my training, Mom. I think I can at least make it to second place.

Mother: Kaito, if you want to do this, do it for yourself. Your strength and power should come
