Next Day, Morning, A crowd of people gathered around in the main hall. They murmured amongst each other. Their eyes had a fine luster that shone within them. After all, it had been three days and these three days were most probably the most harrowing and tense among them. They didn't know what the future held. Trolls were roaming around the corridors of the academy and if not for the soldiers stationed out of the infirmary gates and the huge barrier erected by the head nurse, they would have been troll…-

"So that's how it is," Ray ended his speech and took a pause. He had just told them everything he had in mind and all that was left was for everyone to say their thoughts and opinions. "I have a few questions," Adrian raised his hand and asked. "Sure," Ray allowed him to. After all, the man had sizable influence and whatever the man thought, Ray had to tread carefully when dealing with him. "First of all, I would like to ask; Just how many students are we going to send after the so-called assassin…

"Leave her be. She has nothing to do with it," Ray spoke. He was at the door the whole time and seeing the head nurse put her suspicion over Elina, he shut her down. He knew how Elina was and that she would never do something as such to Emma. Also, knowing that Tim and Emma were a thing, Elina wasn't a fool to piss off her brother and neither was she vicious enough to exact revenge in that way. Another thing Rat was sure of, from the severity and type of wound, Elina wasn't capable enough to cause…

"That was scary," Elina said. "Even though I had some idea, I never knew that human nature could be so dark and they are all the same age as we are," Emma shook her head. Her face was filled with disappointment. Her perception of humanity had changed and it cause her to mature greatly. "Let's go on and talk to the selected candidates," "Hey, wait for now. It's still the middle of the night, let's sleep for now and do all that in the morning," Elina interjected and stopped Emma. "Oh, yeah," Emma replied…

While Ray concentrated on his mana core and tried to refine it, Elina and Emma got to work. With a clipboard and paper in their hands, they walked around the whole infirmary as they observed everyone first. They knew that if they walked to anyone and asked them if they were to join them, no one would deny and most would only do so to get closer to them or if they had any ulterior motives. Also, Emma and Elina couldn't be too sure if the persona was speaking the truth or lying. Some might just lie about…

"Mom," He shouted in panic, the arrogant smile had vanished as a nervous expression appeared on his face. "Yes, your mom. Now tell me, what is it that you are being so arrogant about," The woman asked coldly. "Yes… ma'am.. No mom," Adrian stammered as he recounted the whole explanation to his mother. After doing so, he felt quite proud of himself and was ready for some compliments from his mother's side when her stern voice sounded, "You fool!" she shouted at him, "You are just like your father. Do…

Walking around the infirmary, Noah checked out for points in which he could place arrays and formations for surveillance. This was the task given to him by Ray and right now, Noah preferred to do it alone. With his mind fully concentrated, Noah noted down three locations in the corridor he was walking through. Thinking for some time, he made his decision and chanted, , This allowed him to put down the base for his formation. By doing so, Noah had laid down fifteen such bases and then connected them to…

"Hmmm... What should we do now?" Another student asked. His face was a bit pale from all the information that Nia just dumped and he only asked to get information for his own well-being. "Well, we take measures, and that too strict measures to get everything in order," Adrian raised his head and spoke. His face still had his characteristic smile as he seemed to be free of all the worries. "But how?" Another student asked. Slowly, all the students started to join the discussion as they were scared for…

Meanwhile, The head nurse's office, Clatter and chatter could be heard around as everyone formed groups and talked to one another as they discussed the outcome of the meeting. All while doing so, they were waiting for Ray and some other members to join. On the other hand, Ray stood in front of a mirror as he observed his face and the faint beard sprouting out on it. After all, Ray was half a year into 16 and was old enough to have facial hair. Thinking about shaving it, he picked up the razor as a…
