Theodore's voice echoed through the camp. Everyone couldn't move; they just felt at a loss.
"Guys! Class-1C is here!"
Every student in Class-1D immediately turned. Conversations stopped, laughter died, several students shot to their feet as weapons appeared and mana surged.
And then, nothing happened. Class-1C never emerged from the bushes.
"..."
"..."
"..."
One of Class-1D's students frowned.
"Where?"
Theodore pointed dramatically toward the forest. "Right there!"
Everyone stared, but nothing happened. Soon after, a vein appeared on someone's forehead as he called out Theodore's name.
"Yo."
"Yes?"
"There's nobody there."
Theodore blinked. "Huh?"
The entire camp collectively looked at him like he was stupid. Deep within the bushes, Siv nearly burst out laughing.
Olivia covered her face, Alex bit his hand, Audrey seemed confused, and Ren and the rest of the class looked the same.
Only Cassien smiled.
"What's happening?" Ren whispered.
