Alaric's sudden visit

After thoroughly teasing the trembling, haughty princess.... Now it's Aether's time to tremble.

"Stop it! Principal!!" Aether's voice echoed through the training hall, filled with pain and frustration as the Principal twisted his body with her bare hands.

What for?

Supposedly, it was all part of his training regimen!

At least, that's the excuse she kept giving..... Aether knew better; she was exacting revenge for yesterday's event, where he'd 'accidentally' embarrassed her.

"Oh? Come on, Aether... If you can't handle this, how are you going to manage when I start breaking bones for real?" The Principal's grin was as sharp as a blade, her eyes gleaming with a dangerous, almost predatory intent.

'This old hag!' Aether cursed inwardly. His thoughts must have shown on his face because the Principal's lips curved into a serene smile, "Did you think something bad about me?"
