There was not much time left before class began.
However, only a pitifully small number of students had arrived in the classroom. Even those who were there were listlessly sprawled over their desks, looking utterly dejected.
"What...?"
Luo Zhen could not help furrowing his brows.
"It's all because of yesterday's incident."
Kishiki said this lazily.
Although his explanation was rather one-sided, Luo Zhen still understood what had happened.
"A lot of people suffered because of yesterday's incident," Kishiki added. "The destruction in the southern district can be put aside, since there weren't many victims, but the northern district was different."
Before Luo Zhen and Zaharias clashed, the Artificial Island's detection system had already detected the magical power and promptly issued evacuation orders, sending everyone in the surrounding area to shelters. As a result, there had not been many casualties.
The freezing in the northern district, however, was different.
The people there had almost no chance to react before being frozen solid, and rescue efforts were still underway.
To make matters worse, most of the humans living in Kageno City were researchers from the Demon Race Special Administrative Zone and their families. In the northern district, where research institutes stood everywhere, there were absolutely no shortage of victims.
Under those circumstances, it was only natural that many students had failed to come because their families had suffered, or that some had spent the entire night tossing and turning in fear.
"Sigh..."
Luo Zhen could not help sighing.
Although he had not caused it directly, Luo Zhen could not say that he had been completely unrelated to yesterday's incident.
Therefore, as he watched his classmates become like this because of what had happened, it was impossible for him to say he felt no guilt.
