The moment I felt Alicia's overwhelming presence appear in the room, I deactivated my ability as I responded to Leona's words.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask her."
Izel raised an eyebrow. "Do you think we're a bunch of idiots... She's not even here anyway."
I smiled and gestured behind them with my head. "No, she's here."
"Oh..."
Their expressions froze before Izel and the others turned their heads to find Alicia standing there, calm and silent, her crimson eyes staring directly at me... probably because I had just pointed at her.
Izel displayed an unusual amount of tact as she quickly recovered.
"Hello, Vice Principal."
Alicia's gaze shifted toward her without answering. Instead, she walked over to the other single-seat sofa before sitting down.
Her crimson eyes swept across everyone with a calm and indifferent look... If I didn't know her a little, I would've said she was trying to intimidate them.
