News about Vale's brave attempt to take the Class Advancement Exam one of the stressful subjects in the first year made him famous once more.

Perhaps, the column assigned for the first-year batch was always filled with his name.

Furthermore, it's to be expected that Vale would remain on the topic discussion until his result was out.

Chad, Lisa, and Aubrey didn't even care about their results in the Fundamentals of the Magic Zone including the Physical and Health Education.

Their result in these exams won't really affect their final grade as they heard.

With that in mind, as long as they got an average score in the class, it would be enough for them.

After the class was over, Vale looked at Leonore's desk as he hesitated whether to ask someone about her condition

'No I should stop getting involved in such matters for now. I need to focus on the battle recordings' Vale thought as he went to eat his lunch with his friends before walking straight to his clubroom.

The others also went to their own clubs and busied themselves.

Only Lisa didn't go to the Library, or her club's area, as she decided to attempt recording his Darkness Manipulation Spell once more.

"You're finally here..." Philip said after seeing Vale enter the clubroom.

At this time, Vale also noticed Nadine, Clara, and Priscilla who seemed to be in the middle of a discussion.

"I'm pretty sure I'm not late..." Vale said as he knows the current time.

"Yes We arrived first since our class ended 30 minutes early. Our professor is quite likable." Philip replied with a smile.

It seems he's also excited to see some battle recordings that are worth being saved in the Archive.

"Alright, Vale. You can sit down for now. Clara is here to give a task to the three of you. It's about the purchase of the Recording Crystal. As you know, we can't really make these things in our academy. We have to purchase it elsewhere outside the Academy. So our club is responsible for doing that and you, first years are assigned to do such menial tasks"

Nadine explained as she gestured to Clara, who is the Treasurer of the club, to continue.

"Do we have to do it now?" Vale asked.

This time, it was Clara who answered.

"No However, it will be on the 10th of June, Sunday since there will be a few students who will start challenging the Elite Ranking. In any case, you have to purchase 500 Recording Crystals and the budget has already been approved" Clara paused for a moment as she looked at the other two.

"I'm just about to tell Philip and Priscilla that the place it can be purchased has been changed. As you know, the one handling the Recording Crystal production is a company under the Mystic Arts Faction. We are purchasing directly from them instead from the distributors. However, we recently received an offer from Alchemy Arts Faction to purchase from them at a discounted price. We need a good relationship with this faction so we agreed"

"Ohh Do we not have a good relationship with the Alchemists?" Vale asked curiously.

Clara shook her head at this and explained.

"Not really We're just starting a good one However, the Alchemy Arts Faction has been at odds with the Mystic Arts Faction over the past few years due to some territorial dispute. They might be planning to slowly take all of their customers so they're the ones who approached us... Well, it's not like we're no longer going to purchase from the Mystica Arts Faction. We will only lessen the amount since, no matter what, they're still our partners."

Vale nodded in understanding It seems that the Dark Arts Faction isn't completely unlikable. Perhaps, they were only besieged by the other Arcane Path, not because of hatred but as a matter of profit.

"I understand How do we complete this purchase?" Philip asked as he leaned closer to the table.

"You'll have to go outside the Academy's territory. The three of you will have permission to leave using our Academy Airship. The transaction will happen on the 10th and it will be in Charville City's Alchemy Branch They have a business there called Retro Relics Antiques and you'll be completing your transaction in that place."

Clara then further explained that the visit to the city isn't just for their mission. Other professors and students will be joining them in the airship to complete various missions in Charville City.

They will be leaving the city around six in the morning and are expected to arrive at the city after three hours of journey. Then, they were expected to leave on the evening of the next day.

"Are we exempt in our class?" Philip asked.

Since they'll be returning on Monday evening, they will obviously miss the morning class.

Clara looked at him with a smile before shaking her head.

"No There will be no classes on the 11th of June that's why we chose this date."

"What the occasion?" Priscilla asked.

"Hmm Was it not taught in your history class?" Nadine asked.

This time, Vale's eyes lit up as he recalled the event that had happened on this specific date.

"Is it for the celebration of that event? The recapture of the Dark Sorcerer Tower?" Vale asked with interest.

Priscilla and Philip also recalled this topic in class. Well, they weren't really interested in the history of the Faction. It's enough for them to know a bit about their origin. They're much more inclined to know about the present situation.

Nevertheless, they can still easily recall this matter after being reminded.

The recapture of the Dark Sorcerer Tower was actually a huge matter in the previous war. This happened after the great feat that the Gold Necromancer had done in the past.

"So it's a celebration for recalling that event Recapturing the Dark Sorcerer Tower was led by Morgan Vermont, the one who established the Academy. I guess it's not that surprising, huh" Philip muttered

"That's right And one more thing Professor Stella Harwin will join you guys since she also has business with the Alchemists. If you have concerns on that day, you can talk to her."
