After leaving the loud, chaotic banquet hall, Nyx and I made our way across the academy grounds.
The night was quiet now. Just the sound of our footsteps and the faint rustle of trees in the wind.
As we walked, I glanced at Nyx and asked, "Where'd you get that mic set from?"
He was still wearing it—the same one he used during the duel. A thin, black headset with a small gem near the mouth.
This world didn't really have tech like that.
"Oh, I took it off one of the staff," he said casually, strolling a few steps behind me. "They weren't using it."
I slowed down, raised an eyebrow, and reached for it. "Give me that."
"Eh? Why?"
"Just give it."
He sighed and handed it over.
I turned it in my hand, inspecting the strange design. It was light but solid, with a metallic frame and a tiny, glowing gem near the mouthpiece.
"HELLO? HELLO?"
