Lucky encounter

Humming to herself as she enjoyed the breeze, Rose Brilliance, the undisputed strongest student among the first years, looked at the city below her.

Sitting on the very edge of the clock tower, she leaned back against its walls, relaxed and enjoying the colorless world she inhabited.

'How boring...' she thought, sighing deeply.

For the past few days, no, for an entire week now, Rose had never experienced such profound boredom.

Right after the duo exams ended, the entire academy closed down for almost two weeks, intensifying the constant boredom she felt in her mundane world.

She had done nothing but enjoy her free time, and although it was nice and relaxing to do whatever she wanted, for a girl like her who was in constant search of a change in her colorless world, any form of repetitiveness became akin to torture.
