Reaching the shelves of weaponry, all the students who had been in a hurry moments earlier suddenly went still. The once chaotic scene calmed in an instant. The reason was simple—choosing a weapon wasn't something that could be rushed. It was a decision that could shape their entire journey at the academy… or even decide their fate in battle.
Some students immediately began scanning the weapons meticulously, analyzing their design, length, and weight. Many compared them to the abilities of their summons, already calculating how integration might enhance their combat prowess. Others seemed to make their decisions based solely on appearance—picking weapons that looked dangerous or flashy, then walking off with a gleam of confidence in their eyes.
