The Academy's Doomed Side Character
Chapter 20: Fortuitous Encounter [3]
"Just go! Save yourself and get out of here!"
There was no need for her to say it twice.
The sharp urgency in Lena’s voice snapped me out of my spiraling thoughts like a slap to the face. Her tone was desperate—not pleading, but commanding, resolute. And I knew she meant it. She was ready to die if it meant I could escape.
But she didn’t understand.
I wasn’t running away.
Without a second’s hesitation, I turned and lunged into the portal behind me.
From Lena’s perspective, it must have looked like I was fleeing the dungeon—desperate to escape with my life, abandoning her and the others to their fate.
But she was wrong.
Dead wrong.
My destination wasn’t the dungeon’s exit.
It was the reward room.
