It was the day after Melina sent Ichiro a message, knowing that the final battle against Zagor was only a few hours away from happening.
That morning, she attended her lessons but wasn't able to focus at all as her mind trailed off to think about Ichiro's well-being.
Her roommates were worried for her, but they understood why she felt so nervous and decided to keep her company in their room.
While Yuki brewed a special tea from her hometown that helped calm the nerves, Luca and his two lackeys also visited the princess in her room and joined them for tea.
Nonetheless, Melina couldn't keep a conversation going for more than ten seconds without falling silent out of her sheer worry.
Melina had her voice crystal beside her, as she wanted to keep it close in case any new message from Ichiro arrived.
