章節 138: We'll definitely save them.

Sonra and Caitlyn, among the six who arrived with Professor Verone, sprinted toward their party members. Relief washed over their faces, though it was mixed with worry. When Verone informed them of the danger their friends faced, they feared the worst. Miraculously, despite the odds, everyone was alive.

Tears glistened in Caitlyn's eyes as she embraced Rhea. “You’re okay! I thought…”

“I know,” Rhea said softly, exhaustion evident in her voice. “We’re still here.”

The reunion was bittersweet, shadowed by the looming threat. While the students exchanged hurried words of relief, the adults gathered nearby, their attention already on the remnants of the battle.

Professor Verone addressed the bald man in their group. “Did you discover anything?”

“He’s unavailable,” Verone replied calmly. “I’m in charge. Report to me.”
