The sun glared above from the cloudless sky, casting a long shadow across the grassy training field.
Becoming an overseer at the crisp and ruthless scene in the area where students sprawled on the ground gasping for breath with soaked bodies.
The scent of grass and sweat mixed in the air, thick but not overwhelming.
From afar, the screeching voice of cicadas welcomed them with a dampened mood as they witnessed the battle unfolding in the middle of the field.

"Kaede, control your instinct".
Jin voiced his instruction; then his gaze shifted as a loomed shadow shot toward him.
