"AHH! TSUNOTAROU! MY LEG!" Yuu's voice echoed through the chaos as she clutched her injured leg in agony.

The blot monster let out a guttural roar before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.

"Child of man," Tsunotarou said, his tone calm but urgent as he knelt beside her. Without hesitation, he scooped her up into his arms. "I am taking you to the infirmary."

"No... I'm fi—AHH!" Yuu gasped, pressing her hands against her wound, desperately trying to slow the bleeding.

"Please, listen to me," he insisted, his grip tightening protectively. "If you don't, this might become far worse than it already is."

Yuu hesitated for a moment before nodding weakly. "O-Okay..."

Her vision blurred, her body growing heavy.

Everything went black

////////////////////////////////////

Yuu slowly regained consciousness in the campus infirmary. Her body ached, and nausea gripped her tightly.

"Getting hit by a bus..." she thought hazily. That was probably the best way to describe how she felt.

She blinked, trying to clear her foggy vision. Shapes began to take form, and she saw a familiar figure standing nearby—a tall, horned silhouette.

"Tsunotarou...?" she whispered, her voice barely audible.

But before she could confirm, more figures appeared. This time, they were voices she knew all too well.

"Yuu!"

"Ace! Deuce! Grim!" Yuu exclaimed as her friends came into focus.

"HENCHHUMANNNNN!" Grim wailed, flinging himself onto her bed with dramatic flair.

Ace smirked. "Whoa, Yuu, you really took a tumble this time. How are you even awake?"

Deuce frowned, his concern evident. "Yeah, how are you feeling?"

"I..." Yuu hesitated, struggling to process everything. "I think I'm fine... though I can't really feel anything right now."

Her gaze darted back to where she thought she'd seen the horned figure.

"Wait... where's Tsunotarou? He was just here!"

Ace sighed, folding his arms. "Yuu, you've been through a lot. Getting attacked by a blot monster probably scrambled your brain a bit. Just rest, okay?"

"But he was here..." Yuu muttered, her voice trailing off into uncertainty.

//////////(Leona's room)////////////

Ruggie burst into Leona's room, panting heavily. "LEONA-SAN!"

Leona, jolted from his nap, sat up with an irritated growl. "What is it, Ruggie?!" His green emerald eyes glinted dangerously.

Ruggie froze for a moment, intimidated by Leona's glare but too frazzled to back down. "I... I just wanted to tell you—the new prefect. She got attacked by a blot monster."

Leona's expression shifted in an instant. His usual lazy demeanor evaporated, replaced with sharp concern.

"WHAT?!" he roared, fully alert now.
