From the MC's Perspective:
I'm inside the Lecture Hall, looking in Dimitry's direction. Dimitry appears abnormal and unstable. I suspect something must have happened while I was outside, so I waited for the class to end.
Meanwhile, Paul Lin is standing in front of the Star Light Magic Palace. After waiting for 20 minutes with no response from inside, he assumes Elder Phylia must be busy.
With no other choice, he decides to address the matter himself. Just as he turns to leave, the massive gate automatically creaks open.
Paul stops in his tracks, relief flashing across his eyes. Once the gate is fully open, he walks inside and heads towards the meeting hall. When he arrives, he sees Elder Phylia waiting for him.
"What happened?" she asks.
"I told you not to disturb me unnecessarily," Phylia admonishes, causing Paul's heart to skip a beat. He quickly replies, "Elder, there is indeed something important."
