The Dean watched Hewinia's silhouette disappear from his view.
But he did not return to the boys' dormitory. Instead, after delegating his subsequent work to his subordinates, he left swiftly.
There was only one place he needed to go.
After quickly traversing the treacherous mountain path, the Dean saw Anita standing in front of the small cabin.
The latter was clearly waiting there for the Dean's arrival.
"...Anita," the Dean squinted, "It seems the Principal hasn't gone to bed yet."
"Such an incident happened tonight, the Principal is very worried," Anita said calmly, "He doesn't want the Master's festival to be affected, so Dean, please resolve these troublesome matters swiftly."
"That's precisely why I've come," the Dean said, "Miss Anita, may I go inside?"
Before Anita could respond, Ulysses' aged voice came from inside: "Let him in, Anita."
With Ulysses' permission, Anita stepped aside and opened the door for the Dean.
