- After the Duel -
We arrived at the school dorms at around 8:30 PM, half an hour before the curfew. Feng Mian, Qing Yue, and the Yu sisters headed off towards the girl dormitories while Mei Gui stayed with me. I glanced at her with an awkward smile on my face.
"Uh...Mei Gui, are you sure you want to come with me into the boy dorms?" I asked hesitantly.
She nodded. "There will not be any problems for Master unless I am seen, correct?"
"Er, yeah...but if you are, then I will almost certainly be expelled from the school, y'know..." I replied sheepishly.
"Not to worry, Master. Even if you are expelled from this trash school, together, we will survive and become stronger than anyone else."
"Hah...that sounds tempting, not gonna lie," I grinned. "But...there are still things I must do within this city. And right now, this school is acting as a perfect base for me."
