Zoemi didn't return to his room, he made sure that he wasn't seen and went straight to the heroine's room.
Or at least, he was supposed to.
"Youngster! I was looking for you!"
Zoemi thought he wasn't noticed by anyone but out of nowhere a big hand grabbed his shoulder and when he turned around he saw the tanned face of the headmaster Burdoff Mekhior Vereq.
What the...!? Damn it β I almost had a heart attack...!|
The black-haired boy gritted his teeth doing his best to not flinch at the rather disturbing sight of the shadow leeching onto a corpse β and he did quite a good job of now freaking out.
"What's up, Aspi?"
He said in a friendly tone and the headmaster let go of his shoulder and took a step back.
"Aspi...!?"
His tanned face became flushed.
"S-since when are we so close that we are using nicknames...!? You locked me in the drawer and left my office!"
