Serina sleepless Night

Marcus dressed quickly, his hunger making him impatient. After glancing back at the room where Erza and Charlotte were still gathering themselves, he decided not to wait.

The empty pit in his stomach urged him to move fast. He left the room without a word and made his way towards the cafeteria, the brisk morning air refreshing against his face as he walked.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, the quietness surprised him. It was still early, much earlier than the usual time most students came down for breakfast.

The cafeteria, usually bustling with noise and energy, felt peaceful in the early morning calm. Only a few students were scattered about, lazily picking at their food. Most of the academy was likely still asleep, enjoying the last moments of rest before the day began.

Marcus walked to the first floor, reaching he saw Serina, who was sitting alone at a table near the stairs with her eyes closed.
