Chapter 74: The Time that was erased

Just to be sure that he looked sleepy before leaving, he checked his reflection in the mirror. Even though his expressions could make him pass off as someone who was sleeping, his hair was still somewhat wet. 

It was as if he had taken a shower not long ago. He had forgotten about that entirely. Who took a shower this late? And that too when they were sleepy?

Knock~

The knocking on the door continued, only intensifying. 

"Open the door!"

"I need to take care of it," Gabriel muttered, realizing that he couldn't leave like this. He was sure that the others weren't stupid enough to not doubt him if he did. 

Fortunately, he had noticed it at the right time.

Almost everyone on the floor was our except Gabriel, despite constant knocking. It was making the Fourth Year Students suspicious. 

"Should we break the door?" One of them asked. 

Fortunately, there didn't seem to be the need for that as the door opened.
