Traitors

The way back to my dorm was lit by the soft glow of floating lanterns, casting an ethereal light upon the cobblestone path.

While the City surrounding the Academy was in chaos and the main entrance was flooded with civilians and students, the campus itself was calm and serene.

It was as if the events outside the Academy were contained within an invisible bubble, protecting us from the turmoil beyond.

Well, that was pretty much what was happening since the Mana Barrier was put in place.

Anyways, it was a pleasant respite from the chaos outside.

"..."

Walking through the campus, I had only a single thought swirling through my mind...

How should I make the most out of this situation?

While the Demon attack wasn't supposed to happen for a year or two, it occurred today, making my plans go completely haywire.

Never have I ever thought that I could change the game plot so drastically.
