As the student council wrapped up their introductions, Lorraine called for the first-year representatives to step forward.
The gathering watched eagerly as a group of students assembled on stage, with all year groups rising in anticipation once more.
Franz was the first to approach the podium, his expression almost lifeless, yet he was here to deliver an introduction for their year.
"Morning Principal, students, teachers and professors," he began, his voice lacking any warmth.
"My name is Franz Evera, and everyone here on stage is part of your first-year Student Representative Council. I'm confident that all these individuals are capable of effectively addressing any first-year matters. With that, Francine will introduce each student on stage who is in the S.R.C."
Though his delivery was flawless, his demeanor left many wondering if he regarded anyone with emotion.
Francine took the microphone next, her expression softening the mood.
