「3RD POV」
Full of worries, the young woman with dark ocean-like eyes finally spoke after contemplating along the way, “are we really going to sneak there..?”
“Hey, you know, I'm actually hungry—” the young man with auburn eyes beside her chimed in but were cut off immediately by the next word that came from the young woman with emerald eyes who was leading their group.
“Ten... no, eight,” she murmured to herself, looking at the A.I. Watch on her wrist. A smartwatch that has similar features to a smartphone.
“Huh?” Everyone glanced at the young woman in front of them when she stopped walking and started mumbling inaudible words.
“Ken, go!”
She abruptly turned her head to make eye contact with Ken. The latter only nodded like a loyal servant when he recognised a familiar gaze.
“President—?”
“Run!” Ken shouted as he started running towards the stairs as if running away from someone. Three students were confused and reluctant but they immediately started running too as if they sensed danger and the adrenaline in them started pumping their hearts vigorously. The young woman who was left standing started walking in a calm manner towards the elevator. She pressed the button 3F once she was safely inside, and then, the elevator started climbing up.

On the other side, Ken kept glancing at his wristwatch while he was hurriedly climbing up the grey stairs.
“7...”
“—Pre...sident...?”
“Haa... haaa...”
“...6.”
“...W-wait lang..!”
As if on cue, the young man stopped running as soon as he arrived at his destination. One by one, the three who were following him appeared behind him. The four stopped to catch their breaths.
“Riku, Aly, and Nico, go with Ken.”
At the top of the stairs, the young woman with a dark expression suddenly appeared, making the four students turn their heads towards the source of the cold voice. When they met the gaze of the blank emerald eyes who had shown indifference, the four students called her name instead of her usual title without realising it.
“Kazuuri...”
Kazuuri only glanced at them before walking away.
“Did... did she just took the elevator while we used the stairs...?” Nico asked and Alyssa's face crumbled while Riku was in a daze and silent.
