84 The cold truth

After his mother was thrown in the detention center, Shun remained melancholic for a few days.

He lived along that gardener and his friend. The couple of days he lived in that house, he knew he was being a burden for this family.

Shun then remembered the teacher who handed him his card.

He had heard that the school would provide lodgings and free food to students who performed well in the entrance exams.

Because of that card with him, he was allowed entry and meet Euan Watts, the botanist of this school.

Shun explained his circumstances to the man and Euan Watts was surprised that he wanted to take the entrance exam for lodging and food.

"Will it be possible?"

"It is possible. The King wishes to promote talents and the scholarship program has been introduced precisely for this reason. As long as your grades are excellent, you will be allowed to live for free."

The entrance exam occurred a few days later.
