"We were playing paintball in Ben's villa," I lied.
When Alex noticed Ben's bandaged shoulder, he calmed down and took a chair to sit beside Shelly.
"We have been disrespectful," Alex bowed to Ben to apologize.
"I don't mind, it does look undignified at the first glance," Ben started to talk in code of the first district elites.
"However, I must ask. Why have you returned to school in such a state when playing 'paintball' in your villa?" Alex accused Ben.
Ben narrowed his eyes as he was being questioned by his underclassmen when he was in a higher position.
"I confess that it's because we hastily tried to return to school when Rika didn't have enough spare clothes at my villa," Ben smoothly replied.
When Alex gave up on questioning Ben for the answers, he started to pressure Shelly with his angry stare.
When Shelly couldn't stand the pressure anymore, she confessed, "It's because Rika stepped into a teleportation gate that went to the second district at Ben's villa and we got injured trying to teleport back to the first district as the teleportation gate in the second district ran out of energy to teleport all three of us back."
'I'm sorry," Shelly mouthed after her confession as I instantly felt greatly betrayed.
But I soon started to forgive her as it was a good summary on what happened without revealing the smaller details that would land me into greater trouble.
"So that's-" Alex started to ask while glancing at Ben's pitiful shoulder.
"Real blood," I finished the sentence.
"Thank you Ben de Nuelle. I know Rika must have been a lot of trouble. I also apologize that my cousin was acting out of bounds," Luke bowed while pressing my head down while he dragged a spare chair to sit beside me.
'Who was whose cousin?' I sat there in shock.
Luke ignored my questioning stare as he sat down beside me.
"It has been an interesting journey," Ben answered while using mana to heal his shoulder as he had luxury now to use his mana on his shoulder.
'He's from the Nuelle family?' Alex also questioned Luke with his glance.
Luke nodded in response while he kept on ignoring my heavy stares.
"I hope this is enough compensation for now," Luke indirectly asked Ben as a bright light suddenly filled the cafe from Luke arruptely using his mana to fully heal Ben's shoulder.
Ben nodded as he took off the pieces of cloth tied around his shoulder to find that not even a scar remained from the injury.
"As expected from the heir of the Roselia family. I give you my thanks." Ben smiled elegantly despite his poor appearance.
"No, no. Thank you for taking care of Rika." Luke insisted.
"Then I'll get going now," Ben stood up to excuse himself and headed towards the high school section of the school.
I knew Ben was trying to escape before the situation got more ugly. Once Alex and Luke figured out Shelly and I got kidnapped in the second district, even Ben would get in trouble with the school for going to the second district during the holidays.
"So what really happened Rika Roselia Shanes?" Luke faced me once Ben left as I stopped pressuring Luke for answers from surprise while avoiding Luke's line of sight.

"You already heard the explanation from Shelly. It's really all that happened." I lied flawlessly while looking at the ground.
"And since we'll dressed like this," I waved my hand to show Shelly's destitute appearance.
"It'll attract the attention to whoever else that enters the cafe." I pointed out to both Luke and Alex.
Luke and Alex were forced to agree as torn clothes that were covered with blood would attract attention wherever we went.
"Shelly..." I whimpered when we had to unwillingly separate to go to our respective dorms.
'We'll meet soon' Shelly answered with her sad gaze.
After I changed into my pyjamas, I found Luke sitting on my bed so he could get an explanation on what happened while Shelly and I were supposed to be at Ben's villa.
"There's really not much to say," I tried to finish the conversation before it even started.
"Oh... I'm sure there's tons of things to say," Luke brightly smiled.
Yikes. That meant he was going to go all his interrogation techniques on me to figure out what really happened.
Better distract him with a new topic.
"Is Alex really your cousin? I thought you were from separate families." I tried distracting Luke from his former topic.
"Don't try to get out of this Rika." Luke warned me.
"I'm not... I just think I have the right to know since I'm your partner." I tried to convince Luke.
"My aunt that is my mother's younger twin sister, married into the Monete family," Luke explained.
No wonder Alex and Luke seemed closer to each other than they were with Allan! Now that I thought about it, the way they acted were pretty similar as well.
Alex acted like he was a doppelganger of Luke when he tried to burn all my light novels and stack of manga when we were forced to reside in the medieval-like room together. Plus, his study sessions of hell resembled Luke's as they were really neat and concise.
"Now, I think it's fair you honestly answer my questions like I answered yours," Luke continued his bright smile as he leisurely crossed his arms.
