Adrian was in the Time Chamber, having finished his classes for the day.
The exchange students were slowly settling into their new environment—
all except for Elizabeth, of course.
She was proud, headstrong, and carried herself like a warrior who had never tasted defeat.
And frankly, she had reason to.
She had bested every single fighter at her academy, sometimes taking on multiple opponents at once. Even the Prince had fallen to her more than once.
Her latest triumph—winning the intra-school combat contest—had only added more fuel to the already blazing fire of her pride.
So yes, Elizabeth wasn't the easiest person to deal with.
Her bickering with Allen had already begun. And at this rate, it wouldn't be surprising if she challenged him to a duel by tomorrow.
But this Allen wasn't the cheerful, easygoing version from his current timeline.
This was a quieter, more serious Allen—still rebuilding himself.
