As the meeting was over Rizette grabbed Astora's hand and dragged him out. The Two were looked at by the students and soldiers in the academy, with whispers about Rizette's angered expression. The two entered a storage room and Rizette started scolding him.
"Astora, you can't just punch a foreigner!"
"He yelled at the kids that tried to correct the Prince's wrong doing! The Prince didn't mind since he was aware but the bastard decided to open his mouth!"
"You...B-But..Should-Ugh!"
Rizette couldn't speak back at Astora's Opinion. Rizette sighed in frustration and cover her face with her hands. Astora understood Rizette's struggles and political government work. Astora and Rizette both sit on the floor and lean on the wall.
"I'm sorry...it just that, I thought we had enough time to waste for us."
"I know, we tend to be stressed sometimes, when we're at our limits, we blow off some steam."
"Haha, always with that words of yours."
Rizette tied her hair up and sat on top of Astora's lap facing infront of him with a lustful expression.
"But you're right, sometimes we want to 'Blow' some steam off~"
"Rizette, now isn't the ti-Hngh!"
"It's not our first time, we can do this quickly~"
Astora felt a sensation as Rizette grabbed his bottom. Rizette was already lustful as she took off her armor.
Meanwhile...
Tulura made her way to the library with a skeptical expression. She was hesitating and Overreacting, as she entered the library and went to grab a book. A boy near her questioned Tulura.
"Miss Tulura, are you okay?"
"Oh N-Nico. What brings you here today?"
Nico pointed at Tulura's hands.
"You're shaking."
"..."
"You're getting nervous aren't you miss Tulura?"
"Yes.."
"Would you like to get it out of your chest?"
"I'd love to."
Nico and Tulura take a seat in the library and Tulura spew all what the Knights' discussed about.
"The Nishizumian Noble's request of assistance and the Mad Warlord Zhang of the Zhao's Ruler...All going too quickly with the Harlem's current situation.."
"It really is hard being a Senior Knight huh?"
"That's why I said being a lower class tends to be the easiest job..."
"Hm, well we students could help you with the problems you knows."
"Oh Nico.. we Knights teach you how to be like us so we can entrust you to be our successors..."
Tulura pats Nico. As the two were having a conversation, a bell was ringing a shout of a man was loud enough to be heard in the library.
"All Knights and Soldiers get into defensive formation at the entrance! Students be advised to be in the principal office!"
The steps can be heard outside and panic. Tulura was already aware of the situation.
"Nico, go to the principal office now!"
She exited the library. On her way out she saw Rizette and Astora who now wore an armor along with Grant. She caught to them.
"Another attack from the the Haratake!?"
"No! It's the Zhang himself!"
"Astora aren't you a mage?"
"I'll explain later."
Astora grabbed a student's staff as they were on their way to the entrance. They saw the army approaching, their soldiers were exhausted, the Zhang's soldiers already light a torch to burn the Academy.
The Zhang watched from afar as he approaches and realize the soldiers were tired, he laughed like a psychopath.
"Is this the soldiers of Harlem!? Bunch of pathetic homeless these are!"
The Knights were scared and wanted to surrender, but only death comes from the Mad Warlord, one particular man caught the Zhang's eye as he was approaching the the Zhang's soldiers. Astora uses his shield as he cast a spell, a transparent wall was formed but some projectiles landed on Astora's shield. He held a grudge against the Warlord as he knew the
Warlord was the one that attacked him during the recruitment incident.
"Zhang Wei..."
