Next day, Dmitri kept sleeping late while Adrianna dressed and went to the academy. She kissed him before leaving and chuckled seeing so many flowers that were crushed under them that night. Dmitri smiled faintly in his sleep. He looked exhausted.

Professor Ziu was waiting for her when they reached the academy. Adrianna was late by a minute to his class. The class had settled. He was already very angry since yesterday night after seeing her with Dmitri and this was the breaking point of his patience. He was blinded by the rage that was building up in him and tasted bitter.

​​

"Is this the way you take academy? Do we look like morons to you that we will wait for you before the class starts? Have you started thinking yourself as the queen even before the crowing?" When he opened his mouth, he blurted those words without thinking. The bitterness in him came out in a way that he felt satisfied insulting her in front of the class.

Adrianna was shocked. She looked down and said, "I am only late by a minute Professor Ziu."

"Well, in that case you better understand that over here everyone's time is precious and every minute counts. So better respect it."

Adrianna said "Sorry Professor," and went to sit in her chair. Feeling insulted, she sat there quietly. Some of the students sitting around Nefasky started giggling in a stifled way. They had never seen Professor Ziu getting mad at Adrianna. It was definitely a moment to remember.

Adrianna didn't know why was Professor Ziu behaving in such a terrible manner, however, she accepted her mistake as she was a minute late to the class and stayed quiet. The class started and everyone became busy with new spells Ziu was teaching. Since they were new, many students were making errors but Ziu only pointed errors that Adrianna made. Adrianna was beginning to get irritated. She knew from her experience that if a professor was irritated by you, he or she could make your life hell.

The potion class was a big relief to her because her group was free and she was sure that Lile must have thought of something.

Lile rushed to Adrianna along with three boys in her group and said, "We have decided to take you with us Adrianna. I mean I couldn't leave the only person who I like the most here." Lile laughed flicking her hair behind.

Adrianna was immediately reminded of Ookashi. She laughed aloud.

"What do we do now?" she asked.

"Simple!" Lile said as she dragged Adrianna in the nearby toilet. She asked the boys stand guard over there and instructed them to reach a location on her sign.

"Disguise," commanded Lile.

"What?" Adrianna was shocked.

"Disguise as a person you have seen lately," Lile insisted.

Adrianna couldn't think of anyone other than Nefasky, and so she disguised as her. Lile laughed, "Adrianna you are wicked. Nefasky will be caught for bunking the classes outside the academy." Lile couldn't control her laughter as Adrianna shrugged her shoulders. "Who's bothered?"

Lile peeped out and signaled the boys. All of them created a vortex and reached outside the school premise into a beer bar.

While the boys and Lile laughed, Adrianna warned them not to have beer there since they had to return to the academy anyway. "Are you mad? Who will go back to the academy now?"

"What do you mean?" asked Adrianna wide eyed, as she felt the thrill in that activity. She had never been so mischievous. She laughed nervously.

The five of them had some draft beer, which they were allowed and then headed out to a nearby shopping arcade. Over there they stopped at a shooting stall where they had to shoot arrows at the heart of a strange red colored tree. All of them won something or the other. They went to the train station to take the train across the kingdom. The train was made from glass on all sides and the floor was green grass turf. It looked so beautiful as the train ran through the kingdom through all three realms. Adrianna kept looking outside. It was a new and a fascinating experience for her.

When they reached back the station, and came out of it, a few men came and surrounded them. Adrianna saw Mihr walking towards her, his face red with anger.

He came to her and spoke in a nasty tone, "What did I ask you to do when you were there in the academy?"

Adrianna remembered that she had disguised as Nefasky. She thought of revealing the truth. Before she could do that, Mihr grabbed her hand and pulled her to a side, away form others. He spoke with clenched jaws, "Didn't I ask you to keep a watch on Adrianna?"

Adrianna's eyes were wide with shock. She stared at him.
