The dim lights in the underground chamber flickered as Aguri Basuta's temper boiled.
The stale air smelled of sweat, incense, and rot.
He drummed his thick fingers on the armrest of his throne, his expression twitching with irritation.
He had been expecting good news. The kind of news that would make his god smile upon him.
But instead, how much times have passed, yet no news?!
Just then,the door slammed open, and a masked subordinate stumbled in, panting, dropping to one knee.
"Vice Principal Basuta! We have a situation!"
Aguri's eyes narrowed, his voice low and dangerous. "Speak."
The man hesitated before blurting out, "Kageyama Seijirou and Kobayashi Rindou have broken into the school grounds!"
"What!?" Aguri's roar echoed through the chamber, shaking the walls. He shot up from his seat, his heavy frame trembling with fury. "And what of Tachibana Rei and Kurokawa Suzune!? Have they been captured!?"
