After we managed to take down the assassin and Tony the fallen human, the medical team and Hero Police arrived on the scene.
Yeah, even in a world where people could teleport or fly, the police still had trouble arriving on time!
This proves it. Even if you're living in a fantasy world or a normal one, you can never count on the police to arrive on time.
Anyway, we were eventually evacuated from the hall upon their arrival.
The medical team quickly tended to the injured ones while the Hero police gathered those who were unharmed.
Their outfits were battered and torn asunder, I could tell they were quite exhausted because they were also dispatched to help Hero, Hunter who was trying to close the S-rank dungeon gate while killing the monsters at the same time.
Yes, the S-rank dungeon gate has been closed. That's the probably reason why the medical team came to help as soon as possible.
Today is the day that will be written down in the history book, why do I say that? Well because first an S-rank dungeon gate outbreak happens and at the same time assassin and a Fallen Human appear in the mansion to kill people.
Well, I can tell that Tony is here for Aadran and the other main cast that I don't understand is the 'New Sun' Organization is after me.
They should not appear in the first place at Silva City at all.
Anyway, I know that I will get an answer to that in the coming days.
Right now, I was taking a walk with bandages concealed beneath my shirt, wrapped around my abdomen.
Yeah, turns out, I had broken a rib. But after having some painkillers and a healing potion, I could already feel better.
Just outside the banquet hall, the medical team had established an emergency camp where the sounds of people crying and muffled screams filled the air.
As I made my way through the street, I could see a crowd of people gathered just outside the barricade set up by the Hero police to prevent civilians from entering the area.
Among the throng were family members of the banquet attendees, curious onlookers, and news reporters covering the events that took place there.
In the Novel, Tony had not turned himself into a Fallen Human and I was the one who felt with killing blow on him not Adrian.
Although no one knows this right now, after we get back to the academy, we will have to submit a detailed report of the event.
I can only assume what will happen from here on out. Haa, it will be a drag.
Now Let's talk about the casualty that happened in this mansion.
The death toll from the incident was staggering.
Forty people lost their lives, including six of our classmates and comrades-in-arms.
Additionally, sixty-three individuals had sustained injuries, and three remained unaccounted for, let's not forget about heroes, hunters and others who lost their lives so they could stop monsters from entering the City.
If go by this then several deaths must be in the hundreds.
As I walked through the aftermath of the tragic event, the weight of the casualties hung heavy in the air. The emergency camp was filled with the groans of the injured and the mourning of those who lost loved ones. The atmosphere was somber, a stark contrast to the lively banquet that had taken place just hours before.
The elven reporter continued her coverage, emphasizing the heroism of the cadets who stood against the assassin and the Fallen Human. I couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt and responsibility for the deviations from the novel's plot.
Approaching the makeshift medical area, I saw familiar faces being tended to by healers. Evelyn, Shion, Kael, and Elera were among the injured.
Adrian, his sword now sheathed, was coordinating with the Hero police, providing details about the incident. Despite the victory, the toll on our group was evident. We had lost comrades, and the wounds ran deep.
Emma, who had endured her own struggles during the encounter with Tony, joined me silently. The gravity of the situation reflected in her eyes, and I knew we shared a silent understanding of the challenges that lay ahead.
The city, now scarred by the events of the day, would need time to heal.
As the medical team tended to my broken rib once more, I couldn't shake the feeling that the repercussions of today's events would extend far beyond the immediate aftermath.
The Second arc had concluded, but the story continued, shaped by the unexpected turns and deviations from the established plot. The echoes of today's massacre would resonate through the pages of our journey, forever altering the narrative of our time at Nova Academy.
