Null stood in the middle of the street surrounded by a large group of girls from the girls' dormitory. The girls faced him angrily while several boys stood behind Null with crossed arms and tense expressions. Even from this far away, I could tell the argument was heated.
Curious, I slowed my pace and walked closer so I could hear what they were yelling about.
"Then bring it to the headmaster!" one of the girls shouted. "Our dormitory has been attacked twice already!"
"The situation has already been reported to the administration," Null replied calmly, adjusting his glasses. "However, the kingdom currently cannot allocate additional military resources to the dormitories. Since the elf attack on the academy and the attempted assassination of Her Majesty, security operations across the capital have intensified. Extra guards, bounty hunters, and specialized tracking units are already deployed throughout the surrounding districts."
