Part 7
Eliza smiles kindly as she helps treat the girl’s injuries. “There, aaall patched up.”
“Th-thank you…Miss Eliza…”
The girl’s voice trembles, and it’s definitely not because of the pain. The brawny bodyguard by Eliza’s side crosses his arms.
Alexia looks around the room. “I had no idea there were so many people left.”
Aside from her and Eliza’s groups, there’s another eight students in the classroom, as well as four corpses.
“Right as soon as that white fog showed up, we got attacked by those strange, horrible monsters…but as vice president, I just knew it was my job to pull everyone together and fight like our lives depended on it.”
There’s a barricade over by the classroom’s entrance. It’s splattered with blood, and the walls are absolutely drenched with the stuff.
Alexia steals a glance at Eliza’s mana reserves. They’re at 1,971.
“That’s a lot of magic you’ve got there, VP,” she says.
“I come from good stock,” Eliza replies. There’s a hint of boastfulness in her voice. “I’m proud to be my parents’ daughter.”
“I see… Well, what do you plan on doing from here? There are students gathered in the auditorium, so it would probably be safer to head over there.”
“We would love to, but I’m worried about getting there. People here don’t have much magic left.”
Aside from Eliza and her bodyguard, there isn’t a student in the classroom who has over 300 mana left.
“We could take you partway there,” Alexia offers.
“Oh gosh, that would be such a relief.”
As they wait for the students to finish making their preparations, Alexia’s group leaves the classroom. The girl continues trembling the whole way through.
