Mystical Encounters 18 Chapter 18

One week had pa.s.sed, and we're still not done with revealing the school's darkest side. The recent days made it harder to do our plans than the first week because we accidentally caught the attention of the fifth and sixth level students based on the rumors that are quickly spreading throughout the school.

Thankfully, we're still not known as the members of an elite family because we are hidden away from the people's eyes from many years and no one has found out about it yet. They knew that the Elvina family only has three siblings although I'm the fourth one and the rest of us are like that, except Meryll.

Ah. She has a pretty complicated past compared to us.

Currently, we're just known as an average persons and our surnames are just coincidences to the well-known families of Soul'e. There are many cases like that, although I don't know how they made the administration believed that excuses.

Once we reached the school, a group of students approached us.

How would we do our secret plans if these students are following us like they are our shadows? We want to catch attention to get closer to the truth and not let it become the utmost reason to hinder our plans.

In a short span of one week, most of the students already knew our existence because of this fifth and sixth level students.

A male student at the center pointed his sword towards us. His face shows so much arrogance. "I heard from my cla.s.s about you, four, and it irritates me when someone from lower level is rumored to be a strong, gifted students! I'll fight you and prove them wrong," he said.

"I had enough of this. We don't have time for your childish att.i.tude so please, stay away from us," Vaughn said. His words showed a displeased reaction.

"I won't!" The male student said and insists on challenging us into a fight.

"You won't, huh? Then find a suitable weapon to fight me first," Vaughn said. I didn't expect him to summon his silver sword that glows in a golden light and swiftly slashed that male's student weapon.

"Tsk," Vaughn said in annoyance.

He summoned his favorite weapon!

The three of us stared at him and stayed quiet. Vaughn didn't like entertaining that kind of persons but when someone interfered his work, he'll lose patience to that pitiful person. His weapon disappeared after he broke that man's weapon.

The other students that are pa.s.sing by immediately stopped their tracks when they saw how that fifth level male student's weapon became easily broken especially from a lower level than him.

"H-how did it happen?" He said and stares at the broken weapon he's holding on his hand.

"Attention students, get inside in your respective cla.s.srooms immediately! Cla.s.ses is about to start," someone said.

A seemingly familiar voice. The Student Council President, Ingrid Welsey.

"Fifth level student, Mister Rize Enamel, you always cause trouble within the school's vicinity. Go back to your cla.s.sroom before you receive another punishment and it will not be from the Student Disciplinary Committee anymore. The school's Higher Administration would deal with you when you create another trouble. How would you like it?" Ingrid said with an annoying tone on his last words towards that troublesome man named Rize Enamel. He also didn't forget his infamous smirk, that I suppose, annoys a lot of people.

"I won't let you get away with this!" Rize said while looking at us in a sharp gaze and also towards Ingrid. He stormed out with heavy steps after that while Ingrid shrugged his shoulders.

"What a unique weapon you've got there, fourth level student, Vaughn Estrama. Sadly, you kept it away quickly. Anyways, I warned you already. Trouble came towards you and once you get into one, there's no turning back," he said.

Did he happen to memorize everyone's name and levels?

Ingrid turned his body and walked away, but he stopped suddenly. "Don't forget to attend your cla.s.ses!" He shouted and waved his hands timidly.

I'm really confused about his actions but there is one thing I'm very sure of, he knew something about the secrets of this school.

The morning cla.s.ses ended up, and we went outside the cla.s.sroom. As usual, there are students that welcomed us once we stepped outside. It will be a total waste of time, so I slipped away silently from them and walked towards the hallway.

I reached the south part easily without catching the attention of everyone. I don't have an idea why this part of the school is not used and the students I saw here were lesser than the recent weeks until there are no students anymore in this area. It's so quite that only my footsteps can be heard.

The hidden room is in front of me. A strong defense barrier is protecting that room so n.o.body could see it but I could feel that strong dark aura surrounding that hidden room.

I'm entering that room when my body suddenly stopped. Why can't I move? I tried moving my body but I just can't.

I heard some footsteps and a chain enveloped my body. The person behind me pulled the chains and my feet walked on its own. Why did this happen? He brought me inside the hidden room where I saw the huge cylindrical tubes but there's also a few students, lying on the floor and unconscious.

"It's a pity that students that are going around this area becomes rare," he said.

I came into a sudden realization when I heard him. The reason why the students around the south part area became none is because they're abducted by this man.

I already found out about it but there's something wrong. If the students are missing then why did others aren't alarmed by their sudden disappearance?

There are many reasons running through my mind that I don't know which is the truth but firstly, I need to have control of my body.

I am like those students that didn't move but my eyes are open and I'm conscious. A sudden flow of magic ran through my veins.

Can I cast magic without moving?
