The atmosphere of the room suddenly became quite tense after the mysterious woman appeared.

She possessed beautiful golden silky hair that slid through the cavities of her white fedora hat. Her eyes were blue and cold like the icy glare she gave off. Also, she was wearing a coat similar to the rail guard uniform, with the exception that it was white in color. The thing that most stood out was her red glossy lips giving her feminine charms.

I also caught a glimpse of her wearing tights under her frocks as she was descending down on the ground. It wasn't intentional but I could suggest she must be packing some great body under those baggy white coats.

The old fart William who wasn't long, bossing us around had quickly turned into a submissive dog.

Even the disciplinary guy who didn't bend down to William's threats respectfully bowed his head before this woman.

I just tried to lay low and just merge with the background, hoping they would never notice me.
I was quite glad that this lady who looked quite important was called by the disciplinary guy using another call orb. So she would be sure to not let that lightning maniac guy go unpunished. But for some reason, I felt some uncertainty as well.

"Hmph, minor accident you say?" asked the blonde lady.

She then looked around the corridor.

The beautiful elegant looking corridor was in shambles. The lightning maniac had completely devastated this corridor to mere rubbles. The beautiful chandelier that lit the passage, the elegant carvings on the walls, the beautiful art paintings, and the marble statues were all turned into a pile of ash and dust. But I must say the lightning maniac's attack didn't even dent the dorm rooms and kept the room intact. I should give a 5-star rating to the dorm room security of the passengers.

"Minor...?" she hummed to herself.

That's when she suddenly cupped her nose,
"What is this rancid smell?"

That's when she finally saw the traumatized candidates still sitting on their own excrements.
They still had those lifeless eyes as if they had given up hope. Some of them were unconscious after seeing the severed hands of lord James.

It was quite upsetting seeing them like that but they were still quite very young to go through such things.

"What is going on..." the lady finally saw James.
He was just a moment away from dying anytime soon.

The first aid applied by the disciplinary guy allowed him to survive a little longer.
The pair of severed arms were also bandaged by the disciplinary guy who kept it beside James.

The blonde woman eyes squinted her eyes with a puzzled expression.
That's when the woman finally saw a lightning maniac who was tied in chains resting on the ground. For the first time, this guy looked a bit worried.

Finally, the blonde glared at William as if she understood everything,
"Minor accident, you say?"

William quickly cupped his hands,
"I beg your pardon, madam Isabella. I tried to downplay this incident just so as not to alarm you. I assumed that we managers would suffice to solve this matter on our own. As the chieftess who overlooks the grand ceremony train, I didn't want to disturb you when you have more matters to attend to. I just thought that I might resolve this matter myself so as not to disturb you from your work. I would later hand you a detailed report of what happened here with a thorough investigation so that you could learn the truth. It was never my intention... blah, blah, blah"

The old fart William mouthed off an overwhelmingly detailed form of excuses that was covered as an apology. I lost interest when I heard the first two sentences.
