Goodbyes Are Unnecessary

The awarding ceremony was held a week later and the rewards were essences for the entire academy, money and some medals for the participants.

Astra played with the medal on her neck when Kugure once again spoke up, calling for names to eet them in a separate place. And her and Shinobu's name were called.

"What was it for? Did you know?" she asked looking at him with urrowed brows.

Shinobu shook his head.

With a shrug they followed after those who were called as well and not to her surprise, Ryoma, Natsume and Takako were included in the names that were called.

Upon reaching the place, there were about twenty among all the participants who were present.

Towards the stage walked a man in hi mid twenties, with white hair and three numbers, Ace of Heart, King of Clover and Diamond.

Murmurs started between those who are present.

'This man,' Astra tried to gauge him but couldn't see anything other than his handsome appearance.
