After 2 days of the attack, cla.s.ses returned. Since Greg had died and all the commotion over my disappearance, the school decided to take a two-day break from cla.s.s.Me and Lily are going to school now.
When we were walking to school, we realized that there are still a lot of guards on the streets, because the demons may still be here so they are very alert.
After we got to cla.s.s, we realized that there were some people in our cla.s.s who were quite shaken by Greg"s death.
Apparently Greg was very kind and had many friends. I didn"t talk to him much, so I can"t say for sure how he was, but I wish I could have saved him.
When we arrived at the school gate, Mary was there waiting for us.
Usually Mary always waits for us at the school door, I don"t know when exactly that started to happen, but I think it was after I agreed to be her partner.
"I wonder what Lily said to Mary that made her cry when she found me."
I don"t know what Lily said to Mary to make her cry like that. When I met Mary in town when I returned she was very moved.
"Hey Lily." (Endl)
"Say Endl." (Lily)
I"d like to ask directly, but now Mary was here, I wouldn"t want her to hear if it"s something she wouldn"t want me to know, so I"ll leave it to Lily when we get back to the inn.
"Leave it, when we get to the inn, I need to talk to you." (Endl)
"All right." (Lily)
Lily just nodded and didn"t ask about it anymore. Mary was looking at me suspiciously, but I ignored her.
When we arrived in the cla.s.sroom there were a lot of sad-faced people, it seems they still haven"t accepted Greg"s death.
"Really."
I remembered about the artifact the demons are after. I didn"t tell the guards about this, I need to talk to the school princ.i.p.al directly.
"Liy, Mary, you can sit down, I need to take care of a business." (Endl)
After I warned them, I headed straight for the princ.i.p.al"s office. The princ.i.p.al"s office was on the third floor of the school, on the highest floor.
I asked a teacher who was pa.s.sing me to take me to the princ.i.p.al, as it was a very important subject, and I wanted to talk to him as soon as possible.
______________________________
After a while we reached the princ.i.p.al"s office, the teacher knocked on the door, and inside the room I could hear the voice of an old man authorizing me to enter the room.
Inside the room was an old man of about 80?
I don"t know how old he is, but he looks very old.

What the f.u.c.k is this?
Can he kill all those demons if he wants because he did nothing on the day of the attack? What the f.u.c.k.
"So what do you have to tell me? I a.s.sume it"s very important." (Sebastian)
"Yes." (Endl)
I was already scared enough by his Status, but his speech scared me even more, he seems to be annoyed all the time.
I"m not afraid of him, but I"m afraid he can kill me whenever he wants, that"s nonsense.
"Well, it"s about the demons." (Endl)
After hearing that the subject was about demons, his face twitched slightly. I don"t know which subject he has demons in, but it seems pretty suspicious.
"So what is it?" (Sebastian)
"The demons that kidnapped me were wanting me to come into your room and steal a magical artifact from your room, apparently it"s a totally green sphere, so I wanted to warn you to beware of that sphere." (Endl)
"So that"s it. You can leave now." (Sebastian)
After I talked about the sphere, the director just kicked me out of the room.
"He is hiding something"
_________________________________________
By the time I left the princ.i.p.al"s office, cla.s.ses had already started, so I stayed outside until the end of the cla.s.s.
After school was over, I waited for Lily and Mary outside the school, apparently Mary and I are not going to train today.
After that I asked Lily to go to the inn and went to take Mary home.
"Good night, Mary." (Endl)
"Good night, Endl." (Mary)
After we said goodbye with a hug I headed for the inn. Once there I started talking to Lily about the subject I was thinking this morning.
"Lily, what did you say to Mary when I got to town?" (Endl)
"As well?" (Lily)
"You know, when I got to town, you and Mary talked and after that Mary started crying and hugged me." (Endl)
I wanted to know why, I wanted to know if it was something good or bad Lily told her, and I also wanted to know if it was something about me.
"It was no big deal, I just said I was happy to see you again, so she agreed and started crying." (Lily)
"Then that"s it." (Endl)
"You look disappointed." (Lily)
"Is nothing." (Endl)
Not that I was disappointed, but I wish it was something better. At least I know Mary cares a lot about me, and that already makes her happy enough.
