Really? I'm fighting the Dark Emperor.

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

It was a chaotic morning.

Just woke up, Rui Bu Si looked bewildered as Ya Ya pressed her head down to apologize. Her classmate, who had also just woken up, was unaware of what was going on and instinctively kept saying it was okay.

The classmates, who knew each other well, whispered and discussed all sorts of topics—when life would return to normal, the story Director Pa told last night, the past, the future, joy or anxiety…

Normally, Pascal would have been furious at this chaos and would have quickly restored order to things. But clearly, something far more infuriating was keeping him from considering anything else.

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

He repeated the same phrase he had been saying all morning.

Before them stood four trainee knights and Nyarlathotep, their heads bowed in repentance, as if they had already realized their mistakes.

maybe.

But I'll definitely make the same mistake again next time.

"How could you risk your lives to take Princess Naya to the underground sewers?"

“Director Pa,” Miya Xing had to correct him in a low voice, “we didn’t go into the sewers, we were just around them…”

"What's the difference? If the Dark Emperor finds out that you were nearby, and that Nyarlathotep was nearby, do you even realize what that means? It could very well lead to someone dying!"

Of course, I only went there after I was sure there were no Dark Soldiers there. They're not stupid... Miya Xing muttered to herself, struggling with her thoughts, but she didn't say them aloud.

"Why is Director Pa throwing a tantrum so early in the morning?" Rui Bu Si didn't sleep very well this time; the floor mat was a bit hard compared to the warm and comfortable bed.

But it's definitely much better than sleeping face down on the table.

"The cute knight and Naya went to the underground sewers last night and brought back an undercover agent."

Undercover agent...

Yesterday, Director Pa had just finished recalling the wrong decisions he had made in the past, and today the Cute Knight carried him to the underground sewers. It's not surprising that he would be so angry.

He yawned and glanced over carefully: "Why isn't Lan Bao among those who got scolded?"

"He's just like you, he just woke up in bed last night."

Rui Bu Si: ...

"But he's much better than you. He's tired because he saved many classmates, and he sleeps in his own bed."

"..."

"Were you talking about me?" Lan Bao asked in a low voice as she handed Da Tian Tian the milk and sandwiches while helping her deliver breakfast. "Why are you getting scolded so early in the morning?"

He didn't know many of the people who weren't scolded, and he was too embarrassed to ask unfamiliar classmates.

“Hmm,” Ruipusi took a bite of bread, “my friend, you know, people go through this once they reach a certain age. Even if someone isn’t quite at that age yet, menopause… oh dear!”

Ya Ya slapped Rui Bu Si on the back of the head without any expression.

"Oh." Lan Bao nodded, seemingly understanding. Did that mean Director Pa might be going through menopause? That seems a bit early.

Genny and the others are so pitiful, I wonder if they've even had breakfast... He didn't dare get too close, and he didn't know what reason Director Pa had used to scold them.

"I still need to deliver breakfast to other students. Eat well, and if you're still hungry, there's more from Head Nurse Sweetie."

I wonder how long Director Pa will keep lecturing.

The reprimand given by Pa to the ground did not last long.

Just as the students who acted on their own had said, the Dark Clan outside the shelter launched a surprise attack at precisely the appointed time.

If they hadn't brought back the news, it might have been completely unexpected.

The teachers and students, who had been arranged to do their defenses in an orderly manner, reported to him diligently.

The people in front of him who heard the commotion looked up. They still had a lot to say, but Pa slipped and had to wave them away.

"Wait a moment."

Those who were about to leave stopped and turned back.

"Please be careful and disperse."

"Yes, sir."

Before breakfast was even finished being distributed, Blue was pulled away by the excited Ginny and the others, looking completely bewildered.

"The Dark Clan probably won't gain much advantage this time," Rui Bu Si remarked as she watched them leave.

And she felt that if Ren Naiya could live a little longer, her own life could also be spared for a while longer.

Ya Ya grabbed her by the back of the neck: "Rui Bu Si, please say it again, what period has arrived?"

Oh, it's not certain that we can survive for much longer.

"Menopause," she answered with utmost honesty.

Murderous screams erupted from somewhere in the shelter.
