"How hard can it be?"
Yes, that’s what Yuna had originally thought
But a few minutes and several unimpressed groans later, Licht’s arm was looking less "bandaged" and more entombed.
"I didn’t know it’d be that hard," Yuna muttered, now a little defeated
Licht just sighed
"That’s why I said I should do it,"
Scoffing at Licht’s remark, Yuna spun to the computer and pulled up a tutorial titled "Advanced Combat Bandaging 101."
As this was going on, Licht stood up and searched the room for sothing to help remove Yuna’s horrible wrap attempt.
Eventually, Licht found sothing and went back to his chair when he saw Yina standing in front of him
In that mont, Yuna’s eyes locked onto him with scissors now in her hands, wrapped ominously in a coating of mana.
"Hey! Careful with that!" Licht warned.
Yuna just ignored him and moved forward and slashing clean through the ssy cast. Although it looked reckless, Yuna’s control over the sword was near divine, causing the bandage to fall away, revealing perfectly unhard skin beneath.
Then, without a word, she approached him and pushed him down onto the chair.
"Don’t move," she said flatly.
After saying this, she dropped down onto the couch and right on his legs, which caused Licht to frown
"Get off." Said Licht
"No," replied Yuna
"You’re not moving until I say so."
Yuna began wrapping his arm again, this ti she was neater, smoother.
Despite his irritation, Licht couldn’t help but notice how clean and professional the wrap now looked.
’Well... I guess a genius is a genius after all’ thought Licht
Seemingly noticing Licht’s impressed look, Yuna showed a smug smile
"See? Not so bad having a live-in nurse, huh?"
Hearing this, Licht’s eyes narrowed. "I’m not allowing you to stay in my office."
"If you kick out, you’re gonna have to fight ," Yuna said, smirking. "And I think I’ll enjoy that more than you."
"This is the room that belongs to the Rank 1 cadet, one you only got through a technicality," Yuna said, smirking.
"If you kick out, you’re gonna have to fight . And honestly? I think I’ll enjoy that more than anything else."
Yuna’s tone was playful and almost teasing, but her eyes never left Licht’s. And as Licht looked on more, he felt that there was sothing dangerous in them, sothing unblinking and razor-sharp that made a chill crawl up his spine.
Just as the atmosphere grew tense, the door slamd open.
Two students, one male and one female, both in school uniforms with bright red armbands, strode in.
"Disciplinary Committee," announced the guy who ca in
But before the two of them could say another word, they froze at the sight before them. In the slightly shaded room, two pairs of glowing purple eyes turned to glare back at them
That was already bad enough, but what was worse than that was the questionable position they had found the two in.
"S-sorry! Wrong room!" Trixie squeaked before slamming the door shut in a panic.
A second later, it burst open again.
"Damn it, Licht Valtier, what are you even doing in the personal office of the Rank 1 cadet!?" Victor barked.
Licht didn’t bother turning around. "Shouldn’t I be asking you that?"
Yuna, anwhile, glanced over her shoulder at the two and yawned. "They’re all grey, no colour at all."
After being interrupted again, Yuna felt a sudden wave of boredom and tiredness hit her all over again.
"I’m already getting tired," she muttered, curling up on the edge of the couch, not caring about the confused gazes of the two new students.
"Who is that?" Trixie asked.
"Yuna Greyfax. Why?" replied Licht
Victor and Trix both flinched at the na.
Greyfax... does that an...
"Damn privileged kids," he muttered under his breath.
Victor had co into Licht’s room intending to act as mature and neutral as possible, despite the rumours of arrogance, cruelty, and violence surrounding Licht, he felt like a qualified mber of the disciplinary committee shouldn’t be clouded by bias
But Licht was making it really hard this ti.
On day one, Licht had already hospitalised a student. By day two, he’d sent four more to the infirmary, one of them into intensive care.
"So?" Licht asked, finally turning to face them. "What do you want?"
Victor stepped forward. and introduced himself
"I’m Victor, and this is Trixie. We’re mbers of the Disciplinary Committee. We’re here to investigate your... recent acts of violence."
"Violence?" Licht echoed. "Everything I did was in self-defence." He held up his bandaged arm as evidence. "If you don’t believe , ask your so-called victims how they started it."
"Self-defence?" Questioned Victor That doesn’t match up with the stories we received from the patients we t earlier today," Victor said, narrowing his eyes.
"Hm?" Licht raised a brow, clearly unimpressed.
Victor continued, "We asked all students involved, and they all gave the sa answer."
"We couldn’t ask all of them," Trixie added. "One is still unconscious, and another is said to have suffered so mory loss, and he forgot the incident. But the other two were still Lucid and clearly said you were at fault."
Licht frowned. "That’s unfortunate."
"Yes, it is unfortunate that soone sustained injuries because of your—"
"No," Licht cut in coldly. "What’s unfortunate is that so people still dare to talk such nonsense."
As he said this, his voice grew colder and his gaze drifted off in thought.
Sure, Licht had gone overboard with Riven, but when it ca to the other cadets... he was innocent.
So, why were they pointing fingers at him and trying to bla him for the incident anyway?
One of the cadets still seed to have his head screweed on straight and chose to remain silent, but the other two were lying and not the only reason for them to tell such a lie was that they were afraid of sothing.
What would make them so terrified that they’d rather bla him than admit they got wrecked by Riven?
