章 168: You give friendship a bad name Part 2

Once everyone but Uriel's group left the classroom the place was filled with a heavy atmosphere, it became so dense it could be cut with a knife. Everyone wanted answers but no one wanted to be the first one to speak.

Uriel took a glance at his friends. Sam looked more mature even though it hadn't been that long since the last time they saw each other. However, when he saw Medusa he was suddenly reminded of the time she used her trait on him and sent him into despair for what seemed an eternity. He tried to ask her a question but the most instinctive fear kicked in preventing him from even looking her in the eye. He was scared, traumatized even and remained frozen on the spot. Noticing Uriel's odd behavior, Sam took the chance and spoke first.

"Lots of things have changed since we came back from our incursion." Somehow, his soft voice managed to snap Uriel out of his reverie and he was finally able to speak normally as though a spell had been broken.
