The atmosphere of the banquet immediately turned more lively. George approached the table Jack was seated at after he was done toasting the first table. The guests at the table rose to their feet with their wine glasses raised after noticing George's imminent approach.

George swept his gaze in an arc across the guests at the table. His eyes lingered on Alexi and Jack before a bright smile broke across his face.

He paused for a moment before continuing, "I can't help but recall the memories from over two decades ago when I look at all of you. You were so young then, and I wasn't as old as I am now. It's hard to believe that 20 years have passed by just like that. All of you have become the pillars of this country while I have finally aged."

His words triggered melancholy feelings in the hearts of the former classmates who were present at the table. He was right. Time waited for no one, after all. 20 years had passed in just the blink of an eye. Their previous homeroom teacher now had a full head of white hair, while they themselves were already middle-aged.

George grinned before changing the topic. "But I'm very happy today! Although we've all grown old, Alnewgo University's future is secured. Every generation will have their fair share of talents."
