"What happened?"
Miranda's wind started to blow the smoke away, slowly revealing a group of people heading straight for us.
Curse my luck!
Quickly, I pulled a plaid out of my ring and placed it over Kleah's head. It might have hidden her elf ears, but her aura was still obvious.
"Senior, don't run. It's useless," I said, stepping in front of Kleah. "Just stay behind . I'll take care of this."
"No, I-"
"Kleah," I interrupted, kneeling down to look at her hidden face. "Trust ."
There was a mont of hesitation, but eventually she nodded.
I stood up and turned around, preparing to unleash my Falkrona bloodline. With a strong determination, I summoned a grey aura that swirled around both Kleah and myself, slowly concealing her elven aura.
"What are you doing?" Miranda asked, confusion etched on her face.
"No. Don't co."
As she took a step forward and saw Kleah on the ground behind , I warned her not to take any more steps.
Burning through even more mana, I activated the first and second wings of the Falkrona Bloodline abilities. My thoughts accelerated, and my speed increased significantly. It wasn't for show—I needed to earn enough ti to get Kleah out of this ss.
The wind picked up around , stirred by my powerful aura. It seed to confuse everyone around , but I didn't have ti to worry about that. My mind was already focused on finding a solution to the problem at hand.
My mana was depleting rapidly as I pushed it to its limits, causing a pounding headache to set in. I gritted my teeth and tried to ignore the pain as I searched for a way to resolve the situation.
Suddenly, a familiar voice called out to , "Kleah? What happened?!"
I inwardly groaned. Just what I needed, more distractions.
Ignoring completely, Liart stepped forward and scanned the area, his eyes searching for Kleah. She timidly stood up and clung to my back, seeking shelter behind . Fortunately, she was shorter than , so I was able to shield her from view.
I could tell that Liart was angry, probably because Kleah had ignored him and sought comfort in my presence instead. I bristled with annoyance as he approached us, but I didn't let it show.
"She's sick, can't you see?" I snapped at him, my tone sharp. "Back off and give us so space."
Just buzz off for fuck's sake!
Do you need to spell it for you?
She doesn't like you!
It's obvious!

'No, I'm sure he knows it but refused to abandon.'
"Leave us? Aahaahaha! Rather she is in danger with soone like you!"
Liart's villainous laughter grated on my nerves, and I cringed at the sight of him putting his hand on his face. He continued to taunt , insisting that Kleah was in danger with , but I refused to back down.
"I know Kleah better than you ever could," Liart declared, his voice dripping with arrogance. "My father knows the best doctors in the kingdom, and I'll make sure she gets the help she needs."
I rolled my eyes. "Are you deaf? I said leave us alone," I repeated, my tone now laced with a threatening edge. I channeled my inner Edward from the Second Ga, and it seed to work. Most of my clubmates backed away with yelps and shrieks, clearly intimidated by my sudden shift in deanor.
But Liart wasn't deterred. His eyes blazed with anger as he advanced toward , clearly intending to attack. Kleah clung to my back, her grip tightening with fear.
I knew that Kleah possessed elven magic, but until now, she had concealed it with the bracelet she always wore. In this mont of crisis, she was unable to use her magic to defend herself.
Just as Liart's fist was about to connect with my face, a sudden gust of wind blew in, and Miranda appeared next to him. "Leave them, Liart," she ordered calmly.
"Myra? You want to leave Kleah with this scum who assaulted girls?" Liart sneered, still trying to provoke .
I gritted my teeth, determined not to rise to his bait.
