"So you lot going to order anything or will you just be occupying my chairs?" the owner of this place laughs. And, while I stared off at the building we were all originally going to go to. I found myself quietly crying under the safety of my mask. I knew something was wrong and I was too slow...
I should've left the moment something felt wrong... I should've never let Lari go off on her own... Not while she was like that. For all I know, that strange behaviour set this psychopath off!
"If you don't mind!" Seigunfrei tells the man with a smile before he taps a menu. One jingle later and the owner left. So I could only assume that meant he bought himself some lunch. Probably Rose as well knowing the two slept together.
"Nin..." Rose quietly says as she tugs at my cloak.
"What?" I growl.
"So, as you were saying, you had a meal here and went other there?" Seigunfrei asks me. And I nod as there wasn't much to say.
Yet, I still chose to speak, "Yeah, we were going to go see some group. Deadly..."
"Deadly Sound? I know them, played around with one of them for a bit. But, never worked out."
"Not surprised." I scoff.
"Nin." Rose says with a stern, warning tone.
"So did you see them?"
"No, they were later than they said they would be... And we were invited here by them after Lari..." I say before I realise something. Lari was acting even worse in the build-up to it all. Right when we met Deadly Sound for a meal beforehand...
Lari then disappeared and they were not on at the time they said they would be... Lari defeated them in the Inter-House...
"My Love!?" Rose calls out in alarm after I suddenly rose to my feet.
"THEM!" I roared at a display board before I started to assault it. It was them! This Smiling Jhurack! He was one of them or associated with them!
THIS WAS ALL JUST AN ATTEMPT TO SALVAGE THEIR PRIDE!?
"Hey! Wait!" I heard that annoying human call out before I just started running. I need to get back to the academy. They had to be there. And they would be answering my questions!
Paying the price if I really needed them too...
