Julius' eyes continued to squeeze more as each second passed of him feeling Lyrian's glabella. His look of serious concern grew more. "Is he alright?" Alten spoke in the silence, a genuine inquiry. Julius arose from the floor a few moments later, opening his eyes. "He's... alright. I'll take him to the infirmary... it will probably be a little while longer before he awakes." Julius picked the boy up from the floor. Leon stepped forward, "How long is a little while?" Julius looked at him with…-

With a determined gaze, he looked at the materialization of his shadow on the canvas. It was a light blue, semi-transparent being, but it still existed nonetheless. This was his skill: Shadow Puppet. "Come out!" He exclaimed, squeezing his eyes closer to shut as his neck began to shake from the pressure he was putting on his head. He was trying to make Cerberus escape from the shadow, but all his efforts seemed to be in vain. "It won't come out..." Lyrian stopped for a second and thought of a new…

"Lyrian! Leaving so early?" Alten shouted through the halls as he followed his friend back to their rooms. "It isn't like him," Leon said, calmly walking back to his room as well. He left before even Lyrian did and was in front of the other two. "Yeah... I don't see the need to celebrate as if I just achieved victory or something when I have barely just started," Lyrian said as he made his way back to his room. Alten caught up to him. Looking at Lyrian with eyes showing almost a hint of concern,…

On hearing this, the two engaged in a staredown for quite some time. Their eyes locked with each other as they displayed their simmering rage. It was evident to everyone in the room that they were closely observing each other's actions. At the end of this intense standoff, they both suddenly smirked before letting out a slight chuckle. Seeing Prince Linus behave this way surprised his side of the room, as they hadn't witnessed this side of him before. "Let's end this," Linus was the first to speak,…

"You know why you lost last time, right?" Linus said as everyone gazed at his enchanted body. "It was because you were too frivolous in your fight--" The royal was suddenly cut off. "It was because I was weaker than you, to put it simply. No need to say any more than that. But, who cares?" Godfrey shouted, slamming his two fists together. Except, the fists did not touch. Instead, his claws slammed against each other, causing a loud clash. It was enough for everyone in the hall to hear and enough to…

The auctioneer's voice changed when he announced that the item had been sold. It went from a confident and excited announcement to a more confused tone. The reason behind this was that both Linus and Godfrey had raised their plates in unison, shouting the exact same number of Riftstones as their bet. Usually, the person who said it first would get the prize, but in this scenario, they both said it at the exact same time. The crowd quieted down, looking at each other and the auctioneer in confused…

"820 over here!" Draco shouted from his table, raising his magical bidding plate into the air. This time, many adults also raised their plates. "850!" A man dressed in an all-navy suit yelled. Lyrian gazed at the man and recognized him from the campus city fountain. He was the man who was harassed by the fake monks. Turning to his table, the man said, "I'm going to spend all of my saved-up money if I have to, but I want to get that technique for my daughter," he said. Others at his table talked…

A hush fell over the crowd as Lyrian spoke up. With a raised brow and his arm leaning over his chair, Lyrian retorted, "If you want to cut my tongue off, how about you go ahead and try." A wave of shock suddenly fell upon the banquet hall as many mouths went agape. No one had anticipated the boy to say something like that. Teachers on the sidelines were flabbergasted. Others had even more shocked reactions. Some were confused, some were irritated, and some even found the situation amusing. One of…

His shadow didn't move, but Lyrian could tell that the shadow was also relieved to be back. However, Lyrian also felt something odd now that his shadow was back with him. "Maybe I got used to not having a shadow," he mused, attributing the odd sensation to this as he moved on. Currently, the tenth and final item of the auction is being showcased. "The final item!" The auctioneer paused as his gaze swept through the eager crowd. Most of the bidders were students, but many adults and other…

Lucifer stared at that dark being with his infinite void eyes blankly for several seconds. Lyrian's shadow didn't hesitate to do the same. To anyone or anything else, staring into the eyes of Lucifer Morningstar alone would have been enough for mental and physical destruction from the inside out. That was the sheer amount of spiritual aura that Lucifer exuded from simply existing. However, for Lyrian's shadow, which could feel no spiritual pressure, it was like looking into the eyes of an average…
