First class on Tuesday—Gates And Dungeons
Well, that was what the class was intended to cover, but now...
"Class, I have unfortunate news to share with you all." Neko-sensei's next words sent a chill down my spine; my eyes widened as though they were about to burst from their sockets, my fingers digging into my palms, tearing skin from them.
I hadn't thought much of Rachel's absence from her seat that morning, even though I could still sense the faint presence of death looming—I chose to ignore it.
But earlier today, before classes commenced, Hari's classmate and friend had approached me, informing me that she hadn't returned to her room the previous night, and since many had seen Hari enter my room, assuming we were distant relatives, they asked me about her whereabouts.
