Chapter 103 Cloaked Figure
Chapter 103 Cloaked Figure
"Hey, Fiona Have you seen Zen?" Daphne, who had just arrived in class, asked as she approached Fiona. "I went to his dorm room, but he was not there. I thought he already came in class, but it seems like he is still not here."
"No, and I don't care." Fiona responded with a tight-lipped smile. "Why do you ask Daphne?"
"Nothing, just asking." Daphne scratched the side of her face, feeling confused about why she responded in such a manner.
Soon Celestia and others arrived in A class and were all confused as to why Zen was absent.
When Crystal walked into class, the three girls noticed something about her. They felt like she just got rejected by the guy she liked; it was their girl's intuition.
They analyzed something and came to the conclusion that she might have met up with Zen. Since the only person they could think of that Crystal liked was Zen.
With that, Daphne stood up and walked towards her. "Hey Crystal, did you meet with Zen? If so, do you perhaps know where he went?"
"I do not know; I did meet him on the way here, though. He said he had some important matters to attend to. Maybe ask the professor; he might have an idea."
"Mhm ok."
She then went back to her seat, waiting for Professor Hawkin to arrived.
The door of the class opened, and Hawkin walked in. "Are you all ready for class to start?" He asked as he put some books on the desk located in front of the classroom.
Daphne raised her hand and said, "Professor, do you have any idea about where Zen went? It seems he is absent today."
"Zen? Ahh, you mean Zenryx Raverdieu?"
"Yes."
"Ah well, he asked me yesterday regarding accepting missions to earn academy points. So this morning he went to the Human Resources building to choose a mission."
"Right about now, he should be heading towards the mission he accepted."
Hearing this, the whole class exclaimed.
"What the hell? We can accept missions now? Professor, why didn't you tell us about it? I thought we could only start working on a mission once the competition is over." The giant named Vracoch spoke.
"Ya, Professor, you have never told us about this. Did we have to go to you and ask about it? You only told us about the missions, but not when we can start."
One after another, they all raised their questions.
Hawkins lips were pressed together, feeling annoyed by their constant questioning. "You all be quiet! Let me explain this. You all can't accept missions to earn academy points right now."
"WHAT?!! Why was Zenryx able to do so? Don't tell me the academy doesn't treat all students equally?" One of the students felt discontented with the special treatment, and he felt jealous.
With those questions that one of the students asked, Hawkin revealed a quizzical smile and looked at him straight: "Let me ask you? Have you ever contributed something to the academy? No right?"
"Zenryx saved a lot of students during the beast outbreak, so of course we have to give him some reward. Well... it's not exactly a reward, as he still needs to do the work to obtain the academy points."
"Of course we will give him some special treatment. Were you present during the beasts outbreak? Let me just tell you, Zenryx gave us a lot of help back then, and that's why we were able to minimize the number of casualties."
Hearing Hawkins words, everyone in the room felt they were reasonable, so they did not question this matter any longer and accepted it.
While Fiona, who was sulking earlier and was cursing Zen, felt proud of her stepbrother, she revealed a smug expression.
"Hey Fiona, do you have a bipolar disorder or something?" Daphne asked. "One moment you were cursing Zen, and now you are all smiley."
"Hmph."
Soon, the class started.
On the Plymnach Abyss, an oceanic region located southwest of the Astre continent, a small island can be seen.
Three ships can be seen hovering above the sky. Earlier, one figured to jump out of one of the ships and started massacring the whole island.
The figure that started killing all the people on this island was wearing a black cloak. As he was massacring the whole place. A powerful aura can be sensed approaching.
As that person who had that powerful aura got closer to the black cloak figure, his expression showed horror. Shocked by what he was seeing with his own eyes, he said, "Wh-Wh-what the hell?! Who the f*ck are you?! How dare you kill the citizens of this island?!" His tone of voice was filled with anger.
This individual was none other than the person who governed this island. He was a Peak Advanced Mage.
As his words dropped, the black-cloaked figure became excited. "Finally someone appeared that I can use as a practice!"
"We have been going from island to island and haven't found a Peak Advanced yet. As I was about to give up trying to find one, you appeared. Hahahaha!"
This black-cloaked figure was none other than the criminal that Zen needed to apprehend. The Pontiac Academy received this information from some islands that sent out SOS signals.
SOS signals were one of the ones that the academy gave out as a mission to some students to complete. By doing this, not only will it increase the prestige of the academy, but the students will also be able to use it to train. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.
The governor of this island became infuriated hearing how this cloak bastard massacred his whole island simply to find someone to fight with!
He rushed towards the cloaked individual and launched a domineering attack.
They fought for thirty moves, and finally the governor got heavily injured.
"What a disappointment." The cloak person stated this as he launched the final attack to end the governor's life.
Just as his sword slash was about to land, his sword slash was intercepted by a lightning ball that collided with it.
"Hoh, what do we have here? Hehe." A voice sounded from the sky, and a figure slowly descended to the ground.
