"Hello, Cadet Rin Evans."
Seriously—who could've predicted this would happen just a day before the official quests were set to begin?
Definitely not me.
I hadn't seen this coming at all.
"It's nice to meet you, ma'am," I replied politely.
"Haha, you're way too stiff. Relax a little—I'm not going to eat you. I'm vegetarian, you know?"
"Haha… Thanks, I guess?"
The woman sitting across from me was none other than the chairman of Velcrest Academy.
And right now, I was in her office.
Not by choice, obviously.
Dragged here first thing in the morning, half-awake and half-aware—calling it "kidnapping" might be a stretch, but "forcibly escorted" didn't sound much better.
Where were the human rights in this world?
Anyway, what's done is done. I had known we'd meet eventually, just not this soon—or in this kind of setup.
Letting out a quiet sigh, I took a moment to really look at her again.
