mandytl | scary monsters ~endless halloween night~ 1-7 "someone help me!"

Location: Headmaster’s Office

Silver: I was in bed when it happened…

Flashback to Silver’s room.

Silver: Snnz… snnz…

???: UWAUUUGH!!!

Silver: ?!

What was that scream?!

???: GYAAAAAAAH!

Silver: That voice… could it be... my old man?!

Lilia: You’re… kgh, release me! Release me at once!

SOMEONE HELP ME---!

Silver: I’m coming, Old Man!

Fades back to the present.

Silver: But when I rushed into his room…

Lilia-senpai had already vanished, along with Malleus-sama in the next room.

Everyone: ……

Crowley: …You’re absolutely sure that shriek belonged to Vanrouge-kun?

Silver: Yes. Beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Riddle: Lilia-senpai of all people…

Leona: Screamed for help?

Rook: The whole story sounds far-fetched.

Silver: I know. It sent a chill down my spine.

Having said that… All I learned after that was that neither Sebek nor any of our dormmates heard the scream.

Rook: Come again? Then you were the only witness?

Silver: Yeah. Everybody else agreed that he’d just vanished without a trace. I felt it might be because his room’s further off, but…

Some amazing force must be at work to prevent people from hearing a scream that loud.

I’m sure you all know how powerful Malleus-sama and Lilia-senpai are.

Their disappearance has Sebek and the others in a panic.

Not wanting to upset them further, I kept it to myself.

I’m not trying to belittle you all, but it’s time to start treating this like the dire situation it is.

Gulp…

Riddle: In short…

We should consider the other students as having been spirited away without a fight or a chance to shriek.

Leona: Since Lilia’s the one who screamed…

Crowley: Hmm…

Ace: We’ve got trouble!!!

Riddle: Ace?!

Crowley: What’s wrong? What’s got you so pale?!

Ace: Wheeze… wheeze…

You’ve gotta…

You’ve gotta come to Ramshackle right away!
