Inside the school cafeteria, the following day:
Nyx was seated in the cafeteria alongside Apollo and Violet. The cafeteria was loud and noisy as usual, with students constantly talking about Asher's display.
"Bru, if this is truly the doing of someone, that person must be the most heartless bastard in the world," Apollo commented. Although Asher wasn't a nice person in particular, Apollo couldn't help but feel a pang of pity, knowing firsthand how being ridiculed by everyone felt.
Lost in thought, he didn't notice the sneaked glance that Nyx gave him. The red-haired boy inwardly wondered when this big-headed boy would realize they were actually the villains.
"Should I tell him?" Nyx wanted to tell Apollo that he was the one who caused Asher's misfortune, but decided against it, despite knowing that the boy wouldn't reveal this secret. He was very loyal and devoted to Nyx, after all.
