章節 305: Chapter 72.2 - Moving Pieces

"Emily Anderson."

As the sound of Eleanor echoed in the classroom, I turned my attention to the girl who was looking somehow lost on her desk.

Her eyes were unfocused, and she seemed to be absorbed in her thoughts. She wasn't even showing any signs of listening.

"Sigh…."

It seemed like Eleanor shared the same thoughts as me as she released a hearty sigh.

"Emily Anderson!" Eleanor called out once again, this time more assertively. Emily finally raised her head from her desk, her green eyes darting around the classroom as she seemed to be surprised by the attention.

"Ah…." Emily made a startled exclamation, realizing that she was the one Eleanor had been calling.

Eleanor, with a no-nonsense expression, informed her, "Your name has been picked. Now, pay attention. You'll be facing a fellow cadet in the upcoming exam."

Emily nodded, understanding as she looked at me. I noticed that she had stiffened a little as she looked at me.
