Chapter 26: Ch 26: First Impressions- Part 2
With Miss Fuwa openly on Fenrir's side, Dain gave up trying to fight the blatant favoritism.
He slumped into one of the old chairs, arms crossed and brows drawn together in a sour expression.
The look he gave Fenrir wasn't angry—more like resigned.
Fenrir didn't pay him any mind. He'd already gotten what he wanted.
There was no reason to waste time on Dain's frustration when the dungeon permit was practically his now.
The classroom door creaked open as the rest of the Dungeon Exploration Club trickled in—talking, laughing, some still in their uniforms, others wearing training gear.
Fenrir glanced at each face but quickly lost interest. None of them were important to him... except one.
A tall student with steel-gray hair and a calm expression walked in last.
He wasn't loud like the others, but when he stepped into the room, everyone subtly adjusted their posture or quieted down. Fenrir watched him with faint curiosity.
"That's Aiden Smith. Club leader. Rumors say he's already a B-ranker already."
Dain whispered, noticing Fenrir's look.
