Linri was playing with Wox as he waited outside the school clinic. It was just like playing with a cat. First, he created a thumb-sized azure fireball and then watch Wox chase it. Whenever he was about to catch it, Linri would make it move in a different direction. Honestly, watching it struggle to catch it was hilarious.

As he was playing with this little cute monster he was also thinking about his next move. If this event followed the same steps that meant the next form was going to be [Water Lord] and appear on the second floor of the school.

In the original event, he had tried to fight it but back then Linri wasn't evolved yet and the water countered him heavily. Now that he was evolved he could have a chance against him but was it worth it?

Since the old pervert was missing there was a high chance that there was going to be a twin last boss fight again and he needed to conserve some prana for that fight. If he followed the same steps he took last time he would be out of energy in the [Earth Lord] form. Then again he had double the prana reserves now so that might not be the case this time?

No, that was wishful thinking. He wasn't able to stop [Fire Lord] Leon in time this time so there were too many casualties, meaning there weren't enough people left to fight against the other forms. Maybe he should find some minions to help him. Speaking of minions, where was Six?

”Hey, what are you thinking about?” someone called Linri from behind. When he turned around he found out that it was Elvario.

”About how to stop the next attacks,” Linri said as Wox caught the little azure fireball and ate it.

”Anyway, I wanted to thank you for bringing everyone here. If they weren't treated in time, some of them might have died” Elvario thanked him.

Linri felt all mushy inside. He didn't like being thanked like that. He was here for his own benefits. He wasn't some noble hero trying to save everyone.

”How many were dead?” Linri asked.

”Out of the 34 people you brought; 12 were dead, 16 were badly injured and 6 of them had minor injuries but they are out cold,” Elvario said in a bitter tone.

”What about Jaime and Kris?” These were the only two he honestly somewhat cared about.

”Kris is in a coma and his life shouldn't be in danger. As for Jaime, she wasn't hurt that much. Her left wrist was dislocated but Ms Hina took care of it”

”That's good”

”Anyway who are you going to choose for your team?” Elvario asked.

”What team?”

”Teachers made it mandatory for students to be in teams of three in case of the future attacks”

Huh, that was new.

”Is this like a new thing just for today or has this thing been going on for a while now?”

It was important for him to know that. After all, if it's been going on for a while all the people he would choose as teammates would have already made teams. He wasn't going to team up with someone weak. If he did, he might as well just go solo.

”I just received the message from Principal Zave but they might make the teams mandatory in the future” Elvario explained.

At least things were still following the game's timeline. After Richard disappeared Zave was the person chosen by the school board(admins) to be the next principal. Well, it didn't concern him anyway.

”Is that why you are here?”

It wasn't hard to guess why Elvario was here. He must have wanted to have Linri on his team. Not to brag or anything but he was probably the strongest student in the school right now and if they could get past his shitty personality who wouldn't want him on their team?

”Yes, so what's your answer?”

”No”

”Figures, but can you at least tell me why?” Elvario wasn't offended by his answer.
