Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest

Chapter 928 Chapter 213.3 - Aftermath

Ethan walked along the dimly lit pathways of the academy, his hands tucked into his pockets, his mind churning with frustration. The cold night air did little to cool the burning in his chest.

A reprimand and a suspension.

That was the outcome.

That was what they decided after everything.

He clenched his jaw, his fingers curling into fists in his pockets. His body still ached, his ribs sore despite the healing, but the real pain wasn't physical. It was the fact that Melanie had gotten away with it. Again.

The way she had smiled. The way Grayson had protected her so effortlessly.

They had already decided the outcome before he even stepped into that office.

Ethan exhaled slowly, forcing his breath to steady.

"They want me to take this loss. They expect me to just move on like it never happened!

But he wasn't going to forget.

No.

He would remember every second of this.

His smartwatch vibrated.

Ethan blinked, his thoughts briefly interrupted as he pulled it up. A call. Julia.

Frowning, he answered. "Yeah?"

The second the call connected, Julia's voice came through urgently.

"Ethan, something happened."

His spine straightened immediately. "What?"

"It's Lilia," Julia said, her voice sharp. "She was attacked."

Ethan's eyes narrowed.
