"This is it for today, students," Avendial said, taking out his gloves. He glanced towards the class, where several students were keenly looking at him as he had just finished the sculpture class.
Putting his gloves aside, he nodded before glancing in the direction where he noticed that both Amrita and Lin were absent.
This clearly meant that after Lin was hit in his solar plexus, which is one of the critical hit zones for a person, he must have been admitted to medical supervision.
Amrita, given her personality, would have followed her friend to check on him, making things not go the way Avendial wanted.
Initially, he had anticipated getting some free time with Amrita in the absence of Lin, at least in the classroom.
But her behavior seemed to provide a valid signal regarding her personality, which tended towards kindness and sympathy.
