Lied was standing along the streets. People were walking past him, weaving around him as if he were parting the sea. He was just standing around, staring at the entrance of the Maigikn Headquarters.
He shoved his hands in his pockets, looking everywhere and occasionally bouncing on his heels. He let out long sighs and sometimes even tried counting from one to six hundred in his head.
Eventually, someone walked out of the Headquarters.
Patricia, a girl with white hair and blue eyes, stomped out. Patricia power walked to where Lied was, not making eye contact with him. She wore a low-levelled Ice Rune around her neck like a bracelet because of her curse.
"Let's go," Patricia sighed, walking away before Lied could even say anything.
After Lied caught up with her, he commented, "Judging from your expression, I'm guessing you got rejected?"
"Yeah, obviously," Patricia said, her voice exaggerated.
