Stay Around You Now And Forever

When Emily had returned, Aryan was still resting in the classroom.

Sally had somehow gotten her hand on a bottle of ointment, and she was massaging his fingers gently.

“Are you nervous?” Emily asked as she sniffed the special aroma emanated from the ointment. She felt refreshed at the smell.

“A little.” Aryan answered truthfully.

He was not afraid of failing to complete the drawing. He was just afraid that he couldn’t do his best and draw as much as he could for Rufus.

If he wasn’t able to sketch a lot of strokes on the drawing pad, it was highly probable that Rufus’ part would remain incomplete.

“You don’t have to be so worried. You will be fine.” Emily patted his shoulders.

Sally had the sniffing ability akin to a dog’s! She yelped, “Emily, you’ve just had some steamboat!”

“Yes.”

“You’re so mean! Why didn’t you invite us to go with you?” It was not easy to become fat if one were to always eat alone. No wonder she could maintain her slim figure!

“I’ll bring you guys next time.” She was already full at the moment, “We will take it as a celebration tomorrow night for entering the grand finale.”

“How can you be so sure about that?”

“We will be able to do it!”

Lois came in and looked at Aryan, “It’s time for the team to register.”

“Let’s go, we will go together.”

…When they were entering the arena this time, everybody finally understood what a capable and mature manga drawing team should look like.

The other teams had assistants who were fully suited up with their uniforms. They had at least ten people in a team, as they gathered together to discuss about their strategy.

On the other hand, they only had a few participants, which looked pitiful in contrast.

“It’s Nina’s team.” Lois stared at the entrance of the arena and suddenly said.

Everybody looked in the direction of his stare.
