Capítulo 122: Chapter 33 - The countermeasures (part 2)

Zoemi could barely keep himself on his chair through the class, the anxiety and horrible feeling in his guts were telling him that something very dangerous was merely a single step away from actually happening and he merely had a handful of clues to figure out how to stop whatever it was from happening – he needed more information – and to gather those, he stood up from his seat as soon as the lesson finished.

"Zoemi...? Where are you going...?"

Miriette reacted immediately as soon as the black-haired boy left his spot - as if she was afraid that her attendant will just disappear on her...

...which made Zoemi bow his head towards her with an apologetic smile...

"Excuse me, my lady, but I need to deal with a small personal matter."

"Ah, oh... I see. Of course, but come back as soon as you will be done."

He apologized and gave a vague reason and judging by the dark-haired girl's expression, she misunderstood what he actually meant – but even that wasn't bad at all.
