"Maybe it came up in his memory, when he woke up he was trying to remember something, maybe the Xethen empire came up in his head and he wanted to see why," Ivan said.
"That's probably it, I'm sure Ray won't go around killing the citizen of the kingdom" Leia mumbled.
"Yeah, that doesn't sound like something Ray could do right?" Ivan asked.
"Maybe that's exactly why he's going there" Sofia mumbled.
"Huh!! how can you say that, Ray wouldn't kill innocent people just because the king of Xethen Empire is foolish, we know him that much, he could have killed us back then but he didn't, at least maybe some part of his memories are intact" Leia retorted.
"We should get some rest, tomorrow is going to be hectic" Ivan spoke as he lay on his bed.
"You are right... Leia stop worrying about Ray, you know he's alright" Sofia said as Leia kept mumbling.
"I know he's alright but I can't help it, I'm not sure I can sleep" Leia spoke.
"Just try to get some sleep, that might help" Ivan yawned as he closed his eyes.
"I hope he's alright...I hope he's...I..." Leia mumbled as her brain slowly turned off.

The sound of two loud pots banging together woke all the students up, by now they were used to the time, most of them were already up before the knights woke them up.
"Report to the training ground in the next 30 minutes after you take your bath" a loud voice echoed through the hall and the banging sounds stopped.
Leia yawned softly as she heard the loud sound, Ivan and Sofia were already up preparing to join the other students to take a bath, Leia quickly stood up so she could join Sofia.
"I thought you couldn't sleep, I can't believe you slept before I did" Sofia chuckled.
"I dozed off, I heard the knight saying something?"
"We should be at the training ground in 30 minutes, and we need to take our bath first, we are probably going to the cemetery and then we'll perform in front of the king" Sofia answered
"That would surely be nerve-racking, we can't afford to slip up or fail, or the king would be disappointed, I hope I do well" Ivan muttered.
"You are worrying about doing well, what if you don't even get to perform before we leave, or did you forget?" Leia asked.
"No, I'm just saying what if we are one of the first students to duel, what would you do then, I have to think about this," Ivan said.
"I hope you get paired up with me so I can kick your ass" Leia chuckled as she spoke.
The three of them eventually left their room and made their way to the bathroom where they took their baths before heading out to the training ground where most of the knights were already gathered.
The first-year students came before the 30 minutes were over but they couldn't help feeling late as all the second-year and third-year students were already here.
The first year students joined in and they waited for an extra 20 minutes before the king arrived with his Royal knights and Alfred.
All the knights were instructed to move to the cemetery where the bodies of the dead knights were, their graves had been dug and placed but they haven't been buried yet.
Usually, when a knight dies, the family of the knight is informed and if they decide to bury the knight, the body of the knight is sent to them, but this was different, this was war.
Some of the knights were dismembered into parts while some were barely recognizable, they fought against infected beasts so their bodies couldn't be sent to their families in this state but their families had been informed.
The air was heavy as all the knights stood silent, the fallen knights lay in a solemn row buried deep in the ground, their lifeless bodies draped in clothing with the banner of Avalon kingdom drawn on top.
Gathered around them were their comrades, the students, and the king, with heads bowed and hearts heavy with grief. They stood in a circle, forming a protective barrier around the cemetery as if shielding them from the ravages of war that had claimed their lives.
A soft breeze rustled the grass, carrying with it a whisper of their noble deeds and the echoes of battles fought, the body of Arthur was placed in the center of the cemetery with a headstone with his name written on top.
"Brothers and sisters," Alfred spoke, his voice tinged with sorrow but also unwavering resolve.
"Today, we bid farewell to our fallen comrades, who fought with honor and bravery until the very end. They have given their lives to protect the kingdom we hold dear, and for that, we shall forever be in their debt."
"They were more than comrades; they were our friends, our mentors, our family" Alfred stopped as he stared at the headstone of Authur.
"Their valor and sacrifice will be remembered in the annals of our history, and their spirits will live on within our hearts"
One by one, the top knights stepped forward, recounting tales of shared battles, of victories and defeats, and of the bond that bound them together. They spoke of the fallen knights' unwavering loyalty, their unyielding courage, and their unwavering dedication to the protection of Avalon.
The knights stood in silence, their eyes closed, lost in their thoughts and memories. Then, as one, they raised their swords high, the blades gleaming in the fading light, a symbol of honor and remembrance to the head of the knight academy and the rest of the knights.
"To our fallen comrades," Alfred spoke, his voice carrying across the field.
"May they find eternal rest in the halls of heroes, their names forever etched in our hearts. We shall carry their legacy, their spirits shall guide us as we avenge their death"
And so, the knights lowered their swords and took a step back, allowing the knights in charge to bury them.
Alfred turned around, and a drop of tear fell from his eyes, his blood boiling in angry as he walked away from the dead bodies.
