It was the only thing she could remember from her final academy days as she was selected for the Guardianship programme.

Many other schoolmates were the officials and officers. Their lifetime service had been determined since they graduated from the academy.

For example, Guardianship emphasised martial arts, weapons, and protections. Coming from the Spring family who was famous for their war strategy modules, Chiaki naturally saw herself on this path. 

For those who were in the Council membership programme, their courses were mostly packed with politics and economy, law and engineering, with the bare minimum class of self-defence.
