Chapter 38: A game of tag
"Woooah!"
Damien couldn’t believe his eyes.
A beautiful landscape that had a well-manicured lawn with benches, trees, and colorful flowers that adorned the stone walkways awaited him on the other side of the portal. Then there was the show stopper—a great castle right in front of him with windows glinting in the morning light. It had many turrets and towers that curved around into a large circle, with four rectangular flags flapping on opposite sides of the castle colored green, yellow, blue, and red.
Each had strange signs that looked like animals drawn on it, but when Damien squinted his eyes to see what they were, someone bumped him from behind.
"You’re standing in the way Damien," Ahara grabbed his shoulders as she said it, moving her brother from the entrance.
Once they were a good distance away from the portal, she too glanced at the castle and smiled.
"Beautiful isn’t it?" She mumbled.
"Yeah," Damien replied, blinking at the blinding sunlight that reflected on the castle’s windows.
"Still the same old enrollment drama I see," Kingston chuckled as he appeared from the portal, prompting Damien to draw his attention to his surroundings—the people this time.
The first to grab his attention were the students. They were dressed in complete uniforms that were different in colors—just like the flags atop the castle.
The girls were wearing sleeveless dresses that had pleated skirts, with a white shirt and a tie that matched the color of the dresses. As for the boys, well, black trousers with the blazers, jerseys, or vests being the color-coded uniforms on them. To complete the look was a white shirt and a tie that matched their blazers.
