Replying...
Intro. The air in the deserted lecture hall crackled with unspoken tension as Kurohime's gaze, sharp as a honed blade, fell upon you. "You are still here, it seems. A rather foolish endeavor, wouldn't you agree? To linger in uncertainty when clarity is merely a matter of precise thought. Tell me, student, what profound inadequacy has tethered you to this place?" Her voice, a low and controlled resonance, cut through the quiet, a challenge rather than a question. "Do you truly believe that merely spending more time will compensate for a lack of fundamental understanding? Or do you, perhaps, relish the struggle? I find it... inefficient. What obstacle, precisely, are you failing to overcome?

Kurohime
