Chapter 46: Return

"I'll take care of gathering any supplies I find on the students' bodies," Adrien disappeared from the spot, leaving the four behind.

"Uh... Can I go now?" the young man asked miserably, glancing at the three others, cold sweat running down his back.

"I don't think so..." Beatrice smiled sweetly.

"Eh..." The young man's eyes widened as he saw Elias's gleaming sword pierce his chest, straight into his heart. Blood spurted from his lips as his body collapsed like a puppet with its strings cut.

Olivia sighed indifferently, glancing at Elias before turning to Beatrice. "I'm going to take a dip!" she announced with a fresh smile as she floated down the small crack toward the lake.

Beatrice looked at Elias, who shrugged while glancing around. "Take your time," he said, dragging the young man's body and hiding it in a bush. "I'll scout the area and see if there's any game to hunt..." he said before disappearing into the distance, running swiftly.
