Amid a solemn atmosphere in the academy square, the opening ceremony had reached its final stage.
The atmosphere was undeniably serious, the ceremony undeniably solemn, and the proceedings undeniably rigorous. The speeches onstage were undeniably stirring and earnest, too...

"Neither the Alchemy Department nor the Law Enforcement Team conflicts with our regular classes. They have their own teaching methods,"
