At the instructor's reprimand, all the instructors who had been causing Arthur trouble, including Osmout's father, quietly reined in their behaviors.
Arthur curiously glanced at the principal, but she paid him no attention.
Many thoughts swirled through his mind even as the participants who failed were escorted out of the arena.
'Was she angry at the fact that he told her he was a mage only for her to realize he was a summoner?'
'Or perhaps she already knew all along? Then she most likely treated his behavior as a little kid's hormones?'
An unsettling feeling plagued Arthur's heart.
Glancing at her one last time, he clenched his fist.
The air silently rippled, and the little fox materialized in front of Arthur.
It stunned a few students, including the instructor who had been about to lead the students away.
Arthur forced a smile. "Don't mind it. My second summon."
The instructor's lips twitched slightly, and so did his hand.
