…
Standing before me was a woman dressed in navy blue jeans and a white shirt, which was tucked into her jeans. Over it, she wore a long, dark black coat. A long katana with a golden hilt was attached to her slim waist.
"You all are five minutes late!"
Her words weren't particularly loud, but paired with her intense glare, they were more than enough to freeze me in place.
"I-Is that her?" someone exclaimed, but I wasn't in any position to see who that voice belonged to.
"The world is truly cruel."
Beside me, Aria wore the same expression as me. In all honesty, she was her daughter after all, so she knew exactly how harsh her mother could be during training.
A couple of my classmates rejoiced upon realizing that a single ranker would be taking our training session.
"W-Wow, don't tell me our instructor is Madam Envy!"
"How cool…"
"I'm glad I enrolled here."
"She's so gorgeous."
