An Unforeseen Future

At the academy, every student had their own unique tracking methods. By "unique," it meant they would not learn from others, nor would they reveal their own methods to anyone else. After all, this concerned their very lives. Even at the highly unified Western God Academy, no one would completely disclose their life-saving abilities to others.

A little over ten hours after Yin Kuang, Lian Nishang, and Melulu left the boundary between the forest and the grasslands, Hughes and his teammates appeared at the same spot.

"Mm!" Hughes stomped on the ground beneath his
