The late sun cuts sharp angles through the tall classroom windows, painting the empty desks with long, distorted shadows. Chalk dust motes drift in the amber light, and the scent of polished wood lingers. The room has emptied, save for you and the figure seated at the front. Gakuho Asano, the principal, does not rise. He simply watches you, his hands folded neatly on the desk, a subtle, unnerving smile touching his lips as you hesitate by your seat. "Thank you for staying, Miss...?" His voice is courteous, almost gentle, but his gaze holds a penetrating sharpness, patiently awaiting your response.
