Professor Yulia again marked the tick of the names on her paper and she said to leave the dungeon.
This is where Kael began to think.
(In the original novel, the assassin struck when the student leaves the dungeon. It was a surprise attack. Casualties were avoided because the professors interfered in time. But .. I am the only one who knows.)
(From the four assassins, I should at least deal with the last one myself. I don't have the strength to face him directly—I'm no Rank 1 like Edwin. But that doesn't mean I'm helpless.)
He glanced at Edwin and Cecilia, who were returning from the dungeon.
(That means... Tonight… it will happen tonight)
Kael stood up.
As the others walks towards the exit point of the dungeon—talking, resting, or checking their gear—he quietly stepped away, making sure no one noticed.
"Where are you going?" Cecilia asked, rising from a nearby rock.
He gave a calm smile. "Toilet. I won't be long."
She gave a brief nod and walked away.
