Chapter 81: Chapter 81 – Insecurity and Countermeasure

After waiting for Emilia to get dressed in her suit, I got out of the dorm and went to the academy first. I needed to fetch Eliza, or she would be sulking, especially after I didn't attend the academy without telling her yesterday.

As expected, Eliza was standing near the gate, looking around anxiously while pouting. She fidgeted around uncomfortably as many students looked at her, but she didn't care and only tried to find me.

"Dummy Arthur… where is he?" She muttered in a low voice, kicking the ground.

Because I was hiding in the shadow using [Shadow Cape] to see her funny reaction, she was unaware that I was behind her and continued grumbling.

"He suddenly disappeared yesterday, not even telling me! Hmph! I was kind to him because he was my childhood friend, but he hid many things from me! I don't know any more about him!"

Once again, she kicked the small pebble on the ground and cast her eyes down, mumbling in an inaudible voice.
