Chapter 81: Preparing for Quiz
Evaline:
Though I was barely able to focus on anything, I still pull myself together for Professor Kieran’s class. Not because he was going to be there, but because I had the responsibility of helping my class prepare for the Monday quiz.
"Are you alright?" Kyros asked as we settled down around our usual table for lunch.
"Just worried about Herbs and Potions Class. It’s our first time performing our new rules." I replied, speaking half-truth. After all, I couldn’t confide in him about my dinner date with one of the Rogue Alphas.
Kyros gave my head a pat, something he used to do whenever one of us were feeling down or unmotivated. "You can do it, Eva. And you will have me right next to you."
I nodded my head, giving him a sincere smile. I was really happy to have him as a friend.
With all the required materials ready, we headed to the lecture hall. Inside, the classmates were scattered in groups across the room - some buried in notes, others busy talking. It was the usual mix of determined and indifferent.
I placed the folder Kieran gave me on the front desk and began distributing the handouts and diagrams he had allowed me to copy. Several students perked up at the sight of official Academy material, quickly gathering around as I set up the board.
"Alright," I began, "as you all know, we have got the quiz on Monday. Professor Kieran said it will cover Chapters six to nine, and he has emphasized the application sections, so I would suggest you all focus there."
The class murmured in acknowledgment, and a few began flipping through the pages I handed out.
Everything was going smoothly...until I heard them.
