Chapter 124: The first wave [1]

WHIII—

"What's going on?" 

"What's happening? What is this sound...?" 

The blaring sound of the horn echoed throughout the air. It was loud, and as if a spell had been cast on the entire town, the atmosphere drastically changed. 

It suddenly became extremely tense. 

Cli Cla—

The lights went out everywhere, and the shops closed, leaving everything deserted in an instant.

Just as we were wondering about what was going on, Professor Bridgette entered the reception with Professor Hollowe behind her. As compared to her, who had a grim expression, he seemed more relaxed. 

"Everyone, please calm down. There's no need to be tense." 

Her calm voice seemed to have an effect on the cadets, gradually easing the previous spreading panic.

".....I will let you know more of what's going on later. For now, please follow me. I would like for you to see what is happening for yourself."
