"Straighten your back!" my tutor screamed as she noticed me slouching from being tired for studying five hours straight on just calculus.

I instantly straightened my back as Luke looked at me with pity.

I had to pay attention to my posture and the contents of the lecture simultaneously and it was mentally draining me.

I would normally ignore the tutor, but I gave in when she started to threaten us that she would increase the lecture for a additional hour every time something was not fixed immediately.

This wasn't stuff we were even learning in class. It was material that we would probably learn one year from now.

Who wouldn't have fabulous grades in school if they went through this before school started? I felt great pity for Luke as it explained why he normally got extremely high grades in class ever since kindergarten.

But what I still couldn't understand was how he had to drag me into this!

I was limping after the calculus lecture finished. It took a month inside the time-space room for the tutor to be satisfied of the results of her teachings.

Luke supported me in walking to the next room where we would learn dancing for a month.

Apparently it was a sport for the elites of the first district to learn from a young age.

I did learn a bit of ballet in the elementary school, but I forgot most of it when I wasn't required to take it anymore in fourth grade.

It was a traumatic experience that I never wanted to go through again. Maybe that was why I forgot about it so fast.

However, my body flawlessly followed the choreography from my tutor that she decided to move onto ballroom dancing.

I guess all that hard practice throughout those years in elementary school paid off.

Ballet was the foundation of all dances, so I quickly grasped the new moves of ballroom dancing.

Luke flawlessly twirled me and lifted me up into the air like those days in elementary school.

I actually enjoyed dancing compared to studying as I got to move my body instead of staying in one stiff position.

This was nothing compared to calculus!

I smiled as another month passed by. After reenergizing ourselves with mana, Luke and I went onto the next room.

Joanna setup a magnificent feast in the same parlour we met in the morning.

William ordered the servants to bring more food as if the table was not already overflowing with food.

Before we came, Luke and I changed into new outfits.

I wore a silken pastel yellow dress with a jeweled ribbon that tied my hair into a elegant ponytail.

Luke wore his usual polo shirt and formal shorts.

"You're here," Joanna welcomed us.

I stayed quiet as I reminded myself that I would be gone in 2 and a half days.

Joanna gestured to us that we could start eating.

I gracefully placed a moderate amount of food on my plate so that Joanna would not assign more tutors that would criticize my manners and posture while teaching hard subjects.

It was hard enough for me to stay concentrated on the highly advanced material for long hours without being yelled at almost every single minute.

Both Luke and I didn't dare to speak a single word as we were afraid that Joanna would assign another intense schedule until dinner time.

When the servants started to clear the plates, William finally made a comment.

"It seems like education is really effective," William seemed pleased with our behaviour.

William opened up a new screen to display a less intense schedule to attend until dinner time when we finished our plates.

Luke and I just had to attend classes for another six months in the time-space rooms.

I nodded to pretend to agree as I planned to escape from the mansion as soon as I got out of this parlour.

I elegantly walked out of the parlour in my dress shoes that had a bit of heels to it. My feet hurt the entire time, but I ignored it for the sake of a better schedule.

Instead of going to the room assigned in the schedule, I went out to the entrance where the gates of the mansion remained tightly shut.

I used my mana to fly to the other side of the gate.

However, my head bumped into a barrier surrounding the fences and gates that encompassed the wide mansion.

I spotted Luke looking up at me while sighing.

"Why don't you help?" I asked him.

Luke seemed to hate being here as much as I did for once.

"I already tried numerous times when I was younger. but I have never managed to destroy the thick barrier," Luke sadly smiled.

That was unexpected of Luke. I guess even Luke had those rebellious days when he was younger.

However, Luke didn't possess unlimited amount of mana like I did.

From Luke's blatant clue, I knew I had to break this barrier in order to escape.

Luke didn't go against me for once as he seemed to support me with hints of hope in his eyes.

I closed my eyes as I visualized breaking and shattering the barrier surround the area with a nuclear bomb-like energy.

'There's no way that this wouldn't work!' I thought.

I opened my eyes to unleash the bomb onto the barrier.
