The Saiyan Of Zero

Chapter 6: Fouquet The Crumbling Earth! An Explosive Finish!

In a classroom within the Academy of Tristain, students were seen with bored looks on their faces despite what had happened just 2 days ago. The news of something happening to the Academy quickly spread throughout the student body, but not many know what truly happened.

"Say, ah~"

"Ah..."

Kirche had a small basket of fresh fruits, and with a small fork, she was feeding Saito. He seemed to really enjoy the free food and affection, and Kirche seemed to really like giving her darling affection.

Next to the two of them, Louise and Kai were both angry, but for once not at each other. They were annoyed to no end by the affection between those two.

"Is it good?" Kirche leaned closer to Saito.

Saito nodded while munching on the fruit.

"Good. It's fruit from Germania."

Louise snapped. "Hey! Stop feeding other's familiars!"

Kirche only blankly stared at her. "What's the problem? It gets really boring only having study hall. Well, I guess that they have their hands full dealing with that thief." It was true, the students were left to their own devices. "Still, I heard that Princess Henrietta might be forced to take the blame."

Louise and Kai's eyes widened.

"The only reason Fouquet was able to sneak in was because of the small number of guards we had were all assigned to protect her. Also, I heard that she decided to visit the campus despite strong objections."

Before they could each think about how it was their fault, Mister Colbert walked into the classroom. "Miss Vallière. Miss Tabitha. Come to the Principal's office immediately."

In Osmond's office, the air was stiff. A knife could cut the tension in the air. Excluding the staff there were 5 people. Tabitha, Louise, Saito, Kai, and for some reason Kirche.

With an annoyed look, Louise turned to Kirche. "Why are you here?"

Kirche shrugged. "It looked interesting."

Miss Longueville ignored them and started to speak. "While questioning people in the city, I was informed of a suspicious figure who has been seen going in and out of the forest."

While praising her, Osmond smiled. "As swift and diligent as always, Miss Longueville."

"We will ask the knights to depart at once." Colbert was about to leave to write a letter when he was stopped by Osmond.

"If we take too long, Fouquet will get away. We will reclaim the Staff of Destruction and the honor of this academy with our own hands. Those who wish to volunteer, raise your wand."

Osmond looked around, and not a single person raised their wand. In fact they all looked toward the ground as if they didn't want to be picked.

"What's wrong? Are there no nobles in this room who wish to gain fame by capturing the infamous Fouquet?"

The room was deathly silent. Not a single person on the staff raised their wand.

Suddenly, with a determined look on her face, Louise raised her wand. "I'll go!"

As the teachers started to make a commotion, Kirche raised her wand. "I'll go as well."

Louise looked at her with a confused expression which earned her a smirk from Kirche. "I can't lose to a Vallière."
