Zhanid had left on a quick trip out of the academy. But what the significance of this was was something that was not yet clear to Luke or anyone else.
Megan explained to Luke that these trips were routine, and this connected well with Zhanid's record on the student council. As much as not having Zhanid's support in developing the research could slow down the development of the half-wolf, this situation didn't make Luke uncomfortable, after all, he had enough evidence from Megan and Alice to prove the sisters' abilities.
Megan walked over to Alice, who remained peacefully sleeping, and with a surprise attack, the girl woke her sleepy sister. Alice got up with a startled gasp, confused at what was happening, looking everywhere in surprise, until she observed Megan who was standing behind her.
