|PART TWO: THE SHADOWS EMERGING|
"Brother, what are you doing?" Shin asked, knitting his brows at the figure cleaning the toilet seat.
"I'm cleaning shit," Elior said with his mind elsewhere. "And reflecting on the shit I have spread."

"Right," Elior said and moved to the next one. It was the last of the days of his punishment that he got after he had beaten a bunch of upperclassmen. In between this time, things had been silent in the institute, though his mind was always some place else.
His worries had no bound, and only by keeping his mind busy could he let go of those worries. But cleaning the toilet did not need much of the brain and his body was not in so much better state to practise mana revolution simultaneously, wearing the heavy customised suit as well. So he lost himself in those worries.
