The Sudden Alarm
Back to Fantom city, in knight academy Principal office.
The atmosphere inside the office had been surprisingly lively just moments earlier.
Sunlight filtered through the tall windows, illuminating shelves filled with books and old records. The scent of tea still lingered in the air.
Max sat quietly behind his desk.
Unlike the three young women in front of him, he rarely spoke unless necessary.
Instead, he watched.
Observed.
Listened.
That was one of the reasons he had managed to remain principal for so long.
Across from him sat Videl, Ruby, and Natalia.
The discussion from earlier had yet to conclude.
Ruby leaned forward slightly.
"You're really stubborn, you know that?"
Videl crossed her arms.
"And you're really persistent."
Natalia giggled softly.
"That's because Lady Ruby doesn't like losing."
"I heard that."
"You were supposed to."
The blonde holy maiden smiled innocently.
Ruby clicked her tongue.
Videl shook her head.
