Not too long after, Edwin entered the classroom with Isolde. "There'll be an after-party, a little time for you guys to bond," he said with a wide smile as his students' faces lit up.
It would just be them meeting up at an eatery, but that was enough to ease their nerves after the preparation for the test and the effort put in to attain more points.
While the atmosphere heated up with conversations about the after-party, Isolde looked at the empty seat beside hers.
"Where's Godfrey?" she muttered, subconsciously glancing at Lucy, who shook her head, meaning she had no clue of his destination.
It made Isolde bite her lower lip as she looked at the dungeon core in her grasp. Her golden-orange eyes glowed when she thought of presenting it to him at the party.
She was dumb. Whispers of the King's Hounds reached her and Edwin's ears, which was why they rushed back, but the class was intact and Godfrey was missing.
