Archer decided to wait until the rest of the girls were in their classes before leaving to complete the quests.
He told Teuila and Nala, who happily agreed, and they went to sit down again, which earned them looks from the other students, but they didn't care.
The three returned to the group, settling back into their seats amidst curious glances from the others.
Teuila, sensing the unspoken question in the air, spoke with a mischievous twinkle in her eye. "Hey, everyone. Archer wanted to spend more time with us ladies, and I thought it was a good idea.''
The others exchanged amused glances and a few playful smirks, but they were happy he wanted to spend more time with them.
Sera, who was sitting across from Archer, chuckled. "Oh, is that it? Here, we thought you found some secret treasure or something."
He grinned and shrugged. "Nah, I just wanted to hang out with everyone longer."
