Academy's Second Seat [part 2 Complete]

Chapter 215: Astria (7)

"Oh my, Astina. Hello."

Yuni greeted with a bright smile.

"Oh..."

Astina looked at Yuni with an interested expression, but her gaze carried a sharp edge.

Just being nearby made my body tingle.

The sight of Yuni half-embracing me was more than troubling, it was serious.

To resolve the situation, I quickly separated from Yuni and spoke up.

"Astina, it's been a while..."

"It's been a while? It doesn't seem like it. Was it just a few weeks?"

"Ha ha... Isn't that long enough? How have you been?"

"I've been fine. You seem to have been doing well too,"

She said sharply.

"I've been unwell, dizzy and..."

"Then you might need a more comfortable place."

Astina reached out her hand towards me.

Then she spoke.

"Gravity."

"Huh?"

"Senior?"

I was taken aback by the sudden magic.

I floated in the air, and Yuni, beside me, looked bewildered.

Astina, with a kind smile, turned to Yuni.

"The little miss has her own matters, doesn't she? Someone is waiting for her inside."

"Li, little miss? No, more importantly, I was going to go with Rudy. He needs to be there too..."

"You didn't tell us that."

"I said I had a companion."

"You said you had a companion, not that they had to be with you in the conversation."

"Ugh..."

Yuni stepped back at Astina's words.

"I'll take good care of your companion, so you go do your thing."

"No."

Yuni answered firmly.

"Rudy also has something to say to the commander. It's more efficient if we handle our business together."

Is she referring to Ian as the commander?

Why did she come to meet Ian?

Before I could express my confusion, Astina spoke.

"Efficient?"

Astina approached Yuni with a cold air.

"This is a military place. There are things more important than efficiency here. It's different from the academy and the royal palace you're used to."

After saying that, Astina looked at the soldiers around us.

"Escort the princess to where the commander is."

Having given the orders, Astina began to lead me inside the building.

"Hey, senior! Rudy!"

As I moved further away, Yuni cried out in despair.

I couldn't look after Yuni in such a situation.

Although I was grateful to Yuni for bringing me here, I couldn't dare to stop Astina.
