Chương 373: Seeking Answers

The headmaster's eyebrows rose slightly in surprise, but he nodded in understanding. "I see," he replied, leaning back in his chair. "You are not here for official business, then. That makes this all the more intriguing."

Akun offered a faint smile, appreciating the headmaster's keen insight but choosing not to explain further.

Moments later, a soft knock on the door interrupted the silence. The headmaster straightened up, his expression expectant. "Come in," he called out.

The door creaked open, revealing a staff member standing beside a young boy with striking black and silver hair. The boy's eyes held a strange intensity within them, and his presence, though unassuming at first glance, seemed to command the room. The staff member nodded politely. "Headmaster, as requested, I have brought Alric."

The headmaster smiled warmly. "Thank you. You may take your leave now."
