Chapter 15 -15-How Did He Do It?
At the entrance of the Underground Labyrinth, a wave of curious gazes turned toward one particular figure—Mejir.
After all, an SS-rank talent was no small matter.
It had been several years since anyone had awakened such a monstrous gift.
Mejir could feel the attention being directed his way.
Immediately, he raised his chin in pride, basking in what he assumed was admiration.
"Headmaster Owen," he declared confidently, "don't worry. This time, I'll definitely break the Academy's record in the Underground Labyrinth!"
Headmaster Owen's mouth twitched slightly at that bold proclamation.
The surrounding students, however, weren't nearly as restrained—they stared at Mejir like he had completely lost his mind.
But Mejir, misreading the atmosphere entirely, thought the looks were ones of awe and reverence.
Clearing his throat dramatically, he straightened up and continued his speech.
"I know very well that for the past few years, everyone's been focused on Daniel," he said with a tinge of disdain.
