Jakarta half-listened to Alraune and her tirade on the podium, but she had long ago lost interest in all this. She was by no means stupid, and it rather went without saying that you had to watch your back in demon territory. That was all this talk would amount to, with a few unnecessary embellishments from motor-mouth up there. The young woman only started to pay attention when she caught wind of the praise being sent in the younger students’ collective direction.
Ah, how wonderful that her genius had made her all but famous.
She smirked a little to herself and shook her head at her own inflated ego. For all her instance that she was better than this rabble, she was by no means at all above the general clamour for the exit when the students were dismissed. In fact, she got quite involved and seemed hell bent on turning it into a riot. Jakarta was all elbows when it came to crowds of any size.
Meddy caught her attention when she was clear of the majority of people. The other girl was sticking her tongue out at the back of some guy who was walking away ignorant.
“That’ll show him, Meddy,” she teased with a grin.
