Chapter 53: _ The end of me
My lungs burned as I bolted out of the classroom, the panicked cries of the students echoing behind me. I already told them what to do. They should be safe if they remained quiet. They were protected by the walls but Liam was out there.
Nah. I needed to find him first.
Ignoring the pounding in my chest, I sprinted against the running figures of students. Everyone was in an intense panic.
Thank the Goddess, a familiar figure emerged from the disarray. It was Mrs. Morrigan who was shepherding a group of younglings towards the school exit.
"Mrs. Morrigan!" I called with a hoarse voice. "What’s happening?"
She cast me a harried glance, her face pale. "Mr. Fenrir... he’s dead!"
The news slammed into me hard. It wasn’t expected. The same Mr. Fenrir I had just spoken to a few hours ago?
Despite our differences, death wasn’t something I ever wished upon anyone. My lips trembled upon hearing that.
My mind scrambled, searching for another explanation, but the fear in Mrs. Morrigan’s eyes confirmed the grim reality.
Mr. Fenrir was dead.
Geez.
