An Optimization

"...U-urgh..."

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Vedran awoke from his sleep, his body feeling incredibly tired and heavy.

It was a feeling he hadn't experienced in a long time, but he had to admit that he didn't miss it.

Bringing his gaze to the surroundings, the sight of dozens of unconscious students on the ground filled his vision.

Immediately, memories of what had happened before he himself fell unconscious came into his head.

"The chimera!" He shouted as the blood in his body began to rise to a high temperature.

Although he normally avoided using his ability at all costs, in a dangerous situation like this, he really had no choice.

However, no matter how prepared he was for a fight, no matter how much he looked around, he could find no trace of that towering monster.

At least not in the direction he was looking.
