Underground
The coldness inside the Leonidas High's team room was palpable to say least. If it wasn't winter already, you would think otherwise. But the intensity emitting from Rizer's dark eyes was counteracting against the cold temp.
Neither Henry or Rizer said anything for a while. Both waiting for the other to emit, either in blunder or failure.
Henry wondered if the apathetic Rizer would suddenly erupt and launch toward him. But he shook at the thought.
'No, His character in the books wouldn't give into anger like that. Even if I have, unintentionally angered/humiliated him to a point, it should not cross that point yet.'
The Motherly dormant figure came to mind.
'Well… everybody has their limits. If I tell him about the circumstances between his mother and I, we would be clashing our blades and him trying to skewer me as painfully as possible... no, what really would be worse is Marika's Anger.'
Henry's mouth curved into a sly grin.
