Bernard began to panic, he knew without a doubt someone had most likely seen him and what he was doing. However, he was unable to come to a decision, as his mind started to move back and forth from fear.

Yet, he couldn't turn his head to look at the person, otherwise, the other person would see his face completely and probably recognize him. However, while Sophia was observing him, she was unaware she had been discovered by Bernard as well.

Suddenly, she saw Bernard abruptly stand up with his jacket covering his face and the next moment disappeared right in front of her into the shadows.

'How did he…' Sophia was shocked.'It can't be that he disappeared right? He wasn't that fast before, if not he would surely have been able to defeat that guy before I arrived.' She was completely flabbergasted, in her eyes he had suddenly disappeared into thin air.

'Who was that? The smell somehow seems a bit familiar?' Bernard thought as he flashed within the darkness rapidly, but could not think of anyone in mind. However, he sure wasn't if the person had seen him, but if the person did the person would mostly look for him in the academy later on he thought.

Due to how panicked he was that someone was coming his way and he had been found out, he didn't think twice before immediately activating dash which made it seem like he had suddenly disappeared.

Bernard squinted his eyes, as everything and everywhere had become silent for the next 10 seconds. At this moment, he felt extremely light almost like he had transformed into a gust of wind that blew across the environment.

Using this opportunity, Bernard felt like using perception gave him an extra pair of senses, as though he could do everything in a timely manner.

'Phew, with this no one will be able to tell it was me. At least I will be safe for the meantime.' Bernard thought to himself, as he looked at the great distance he had crossed under ten seconds with a look of surprise and astonishment, he almost couldn't believe it himself.

When his feet finally touch the ground, he looked left and right as he confirmed he was safe with no one watching.

He noticed he had left both the snacks and the comic book at the convenience store, making him a bit regretful, since he was sure someone else might have picked it up.

The more he thought about it, the more hungry he became, and he almost had the urge to rush back, however, he soon decided against it since the cons might outweigh the pros.

Holding his stomach, he realized he must have underestimated just how hungry he currently was. Looking at his stomach continuously making rumbling noises, Bernard didn't know how much he would be able to last.

However, the good thing was, that he would be able to rush to the cafeteria early in the morning, and surely be able to have enough to fill his stomach.

After walking for a while, he finally arrived at his dorm, just as he was about to head into his room he could see Sophia she was currently staring at him coldly. Yet, the way she was looking at him, he found it to be extremely strange. It wasn't her usual type of cold and emotionless way.

He smiled as he to waved his hand at her, however she ignored him and walked inside her room tube. Just then, as he was about walking inside he smelled something familiar and the expression on his face suddenly changed under the smell.

'It can't be… Or am I wrong, no the smell is definitely coming from her.' Bernard suddenly thought. Even though he was shocked, he didn't show any noticeable changes in expression letting his outward appearance looked just as before.

Just as he slightly lifted his head to stare at her, the door to her room tube was suddenly shut tightly.

Even though he hadn't seen her, with his nose he was sure nothing could escape its sense.

There were many questions on Bernard's mind at this point, questions he was unsure of and had no answers to.'How much of what happened did she see? Would she report me to the academy authorities? Perhaps would she keep it a secret? What if she decides to threaten me to do her bidding with it? Would I have to comply with her wishes?

Bernard felt a terrible headache thinking about all this, after a while of thinking he opened the door to his room tube and shot it behind him as he looked at the quiet place, he felt a sense of calmness.

After a deep breath, he took a short nicker with a plain shirt and wore it, while he wasn't dirty or something for some reason he felt like he smelled like a cat, he even felt a bit disgusted with himself and decided he needed a bath.

When he arrived at the bathing room, he realized his appearance had changed a bit and if there were any noticeable changes it was the fact there were now markings on his face resembling cat whiskers. But overall he didn't affect his appearance much.
