The next morning, the three juniors practically sprinted down the hallway.
Valtor clutched his stomach. "MOVE! MOVE! MOVE! I'M STARVING!!"
Seira walked fast beside him, eyes sharp. "We should've woken up even earlier…"
Mersha held her backpack and nodded quickly. "I feel like I could eat a whole table…"
They turned a corner and almost crashed into Dahlia, who stood there with a smirk.
"Well, well, well... Fancy seeing you three here so early."
Valtor stopped and pointed at her dramatically. "YOU! This is your fault!"
Seira nodded. "We fell asleep instantly last night… and now we feel like we haven't eaten for a week."
Mersha rubbed her tummy, voice small. "My stomach growled three times already…"
Dahlia laughed loudly. "Of course it did! That's the [Demonic Protein] effect."
Arden walked over, sipping tea casually.
"Yes. It causes extreme drowsiness after repairing your muscles. And when you wake up… you get unusually hungry."
