An Extra’s POV

785 Confrontation [Pt 1]

"Practical Sessions will properly begin tomorrow. Things get a little heated there, so… I just thought I'd give you two a little heads up."

Once again, Mi'ja made it her responsibility to inform Rey and Lucielle about one of the pertinent class activities that they had to know about. Thus far, she had helped them acclimate to the Academy a great deal, and it didn't seem like she was ever going to let them be just yet.

Despite her cute, child-like appearance, she almost had a motherly vibe about her.

"Thanks, Mi'ja."

"Yeah. Appreciate it."

She giggled with satisfaction as soon as she heard that, a hint of pink flashing on her cheeks.

Classes just ended, so most of the students were gathered in groups, while others were preparing to leave. As a result, the class was a bit rowdier than normal.

"Since it's getting a bit late, and you'll still need time to get adjusted to your dorms, why don't we start going? I can take you guys and show you where you'll be staying." Her kindness really knew no bounds.

As usual, Lucielle gave a heartfelt smile and thanked her for the help, taking the offer of assistance wholeheartedly.

However, Rey had other plans.

"Actually… I was hoping Ad'oni would do the honor for me, since he's a guy… and it seems he's already leaving too."

He intentionally raised his voice so that the departing Adonis would hear him, and the flinch that the boy had as he walked towards the door made it clear that he heard every bit of what Rey said—no, probably the whole conversation between Mi'ja and the two.

Just as soon as he heard this, though, he tried to pick up pace. Unfortunately for him…
