Chapter 59: Zagan

Aurianna let out a deep sigh, her pen scraping across the parchment with a sense of tediousness. The room around her was stiflingly dull, filled with nothing but dry lectures and endless books. Even the act of drawing gory images failed to lift her spirits. "Hah, so fucking boring," she breathed out heavily.

"Princess, please mind your manners," came the reprimanding voice of Balsvo, her teacher. He straightened his glasses and stared at her with nervousness as he stopped writing on the board.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," Aurianna sat up and rolled her eyes dismissively at him. Her thoughts wandered, 'I'd rather spend time fighting with Leila than be in this boring lecture,' She thought as she looked at the pile of books beside her and frowned.

"I guess this is one bad trait of mine that kinda sticks with me. The despise to study."

"You're growing quite attached to her," Eva's voice resounded in Aurianna's head, startling her.
