Emery and his friends left the room. Now, only the magus, Grand Magus and the Headmaster remained.
Xion had thought of leaving, considering the headmaster only called for Lord Izta. So, he quickly asked permission to go. However, the headmaster shook his head.
"No, Xion… Stay here, as you are a part of this as much as Izta is." Headmaster Altus said with a grave tone.
The tension in the air instantly thickened, the two were able to sense the seriousness of the situation. Magus Xion had sensed something was up back when the acolytes were here, and what the headmaster said quickly confirmed his suspicion.
Behind the headmaster, grand magus Ororo stood still with her usual stern and cold look, but Xion's attentive gaze caught a slight smile gracing the woman's lips.
He was sure. They had a stern scolding coming their way.
The headmaster stared at the two, sighed and shook his head. "You two really are in over your head."
