Chapter 479: Suspicious Company.
I would like to officially inform all my readers that I have started writing a new story called Heavy Metal [ A Monster Evolution LitRPG ]“Ah, Professor Wayland, I’ve heard the good news! Do you have time now to discuss…”
A small black cat floated forward, his eyes sparkling with joy. He was able to see his assistant professor coming from around the corner. His name was Wayland and since his arrival, the whole Institute had been flipped upside down. Everyone was whispering his name and gossiping about the wave of change he was ushering with his presence. Many of the other professors were jealous, some even feared his newly gained position but Arion was truly grateful that he had become acquainted with this peculiar young man.
“Good day, Professor Arion.”
“Oh? Good day.”
Before he could speak any further three new people entered his field of view. Four young ladies accompanied his new friend. One of them had been central to a recent drama that Professor Wayland had resolved. He wasn’t too well informed about the three that accompanied her but they seemed to have a good relationship with each other. While he couldn’t tell what this was about, his friend seemed to be in some trouble. Even though his face was hidden behind armor, Arion could tell by now when Roland was flustered.
Arion, the head of the Runic Department, took in the scene before him with keen interest. Roland, or Professor Wayland as most knew him, was flanked by his sister Lucienne and her three friends, each carrying travel bags. There seemed to be some tension in the air, cleary something was unfolding before his feline eyes.
"I see you have company. What brings you all here?"
