Chapter 66: 15 years old Inglis and Chiral's Royal Knight Academy (16)
Inglis, Leone, and Liselotte went further up. With the power of her Artifact, Liselotte flew while carrying the other two. And, as they reached the top-most layer, a glimmer of white light appeared beyond the pierced ceiling.

The next second, they were all back to the stone ring in the Academy’s courtyard.
「Hm? Seems like we’re out.」 「Ah……Y-, you’re right.」 「It appears to be so.」
They could see behind them a door that looked like the one they walked into.
「Welcome back! But, eeehh?? You all walked out from a different door than when you entered? And three people from the same door……?」 「There wasn’t anything weird when we’re in there, if you wondered.」 「Really? Hmm, I guess it’s on me, then?」

「That’s a big fat lie—— Even though you forcefully created your own exit.」 「She’s right……You even saved me on the way.」 「It’s better if we all pass, you see. You don’t want to redo the test, right?」 「Indeed, I don’t. Let us get the stories straight.」 「Yeah, let’s. I’d hate to go through the same thing twice.」
The three of them held a little meeting in a hushed voice.
