Chapter 65 : A visit to the apex
------
[Seraphina Starlight's POV]
The golden rays of the setting sun bathed the Phoenix Spire—yes, the building, or tower you could call it, was named the Phoenix Spire—where they would be living from now on.
Seraphina Starlight stepped out of the academy transport shuttle and into her new life as a Zenith Academy cadet.
The majestic tower stood tall against the crimson-tinged sky, gleaming with glass panels and spell-inscribed runes that faintly shimmered under the sunlight.
She tilted her head, admiring its architecture—a blend of futuristic elegance and arcane grandeur.
"Fifth floor… not bad," she muttered softly to herself, brushing a stray strand of blue hair behind her ear.
The moment she reached the entrance to her floor, a mechanical voice chimed in from the hallway, "Mana signature authentication required."
She calmly extended her hand, her palm glowing faintly as threads of mana seeped into the door's crystal scanner.
A second later, the door slid open with a gentle whoosh, revealing her living quarters.
As she stepped in, she gave a light nod of approval. The design was elegant and refined, with sapphire-toned drapes, enchanted crystal chandeliers, and a sleek kitchen that blended aesthetics with magical tech.
