บท 133: A Failed Manipulation

"Mr. Principal."

Roy faintly heard someone's voice amidst his grogginess. But, he could barely hang on to his consciousness, much less opening his eyes.

He felt the heaviness in his head and the darkness that shrouded his vision.

It was calm and peaceful, almost addicting, as if he was floating about in the air. But soon, he felt a turbulence shake toppling his balance and gradually, he heard that same voice again.

"Mr. Principal, Sir!"

Roy was sprawled on his desk with his head lying on his left arm. Meanwhile, his right hand was still holding a quill. A book was left opened beside him.
