Chapter 17: Sneaking Out Of The Dormitory... Caught?
Matthew’s face held a hint of strange emotion as a thought surfaced in his mind.
’Now, let’s plan on how to break into the academy treasury...’
Since he had no way to tell what the time was, Matthew sat by the corner, clenching his fists so he wouldn’t touch anything and decay it again.

Upon exiting, Matthew noticed that everywhere was dark.
