The trainees in the large hall gathered in small groups, excitedly discussing the selections. The schedule where it was held began this day. It has been days after Lucas has shown his Godly Potential.
He has nowhere to sit on as he noticed most of the students heading towards this large hall. Before the wide door, a sign was posted on the front, saying that the Skill Selection will only be held inside this hall.
Walking inside, he noticed lots of seats beside the wall, but all of those were occupied by nervous students trying to cease their nausea. Some were cheering themselves, some were cheering others. Three to five wandering coaches were talking to some students, and giving them a piece of paper.
He tried inspecting what those papers were, and he learned it was a draw lot that has a number on it. It will maintain the order on what class should go on first, second,

Chapter 16: Moon and Doll Evaluated Moon stared at Principal Lyns after she had said that the next part with be an intense battle segment. He glanced over to his classmates and he felt their nervousness even from afar. Intense battle referred to the different foundation battle styles that were used in different selections on a regular basis. The evaluators would randomly pick combatants to test the students' fighting abilities. This would be a pain. He didn't plan out that something like this would happen. What was Principal Lyns meant when she said intense? Wasn't it just someone on one battle? They were six within the class, and picking up something like one on one will not cost too much time to them. Given that they were picking students to represent White Day, Moon thought that the intense battle style would be more toward the Division's incredible standard. However, the combatants that Principal Lyns p

Chapter 17: The Selected ParticipantsAs the evaluation ended in a short amount of time, the selected participants were all happy. All of their nervousness has ceased to zero as the trial has ended. Those who did not manage to make it to the selection have exited already, with some of those who were friends with the selected ones staying at the hall as they were all lectured by Principal Lyns.Lucas sat at the chair that Nath gave him. It made him wonder, where was that girl? He has to return this chair to her, or else, she might sue him. That would be another reason for her to check on him all the time.Given their location, he cannot see her or anyone familiar inside the room. Also, he has no interest in them for now. He was tired of practicing, as well as improving the spell he had learned from his right arm. All of these lecturings were boring for Lucas, for as he heard all of those being said by Coach Clive to him.

Chapter 18: Celebration with FuryDressed in a simple white shirt and wearing the same silk necktie, Lunar Invel had no other accessories anymore in his entire outfit except for that wristwatch that he wore back then. He moved forward, and the cheering from the selected participants followed.Moon kept his gaze onto Lunar Invel momentarily. He began hating his face.Now, he wore classic eyeglasses that suited his manly face. His features have gotten matured since the time Moon had seen him with his mother at the cliff years ago. But he hasn't grown that much. His face remained recognizable, and irritating to Moon's sight.Doll, upon hearing Moon whispered Lunar Invel's name, took a peek at the man. She could clearly remember what Moon had told her. Lunar Invel was one of the adopted children of his parents. Now that the man he used to know was sharing faces with this evaluator, what would Moon do?

"Moon, I didn't realize that you were this interesting. You know what? I already knew you. With your parents again?"Moon hissed a cold sigh. It was bitter. He sought to keep his emotions vague and decided to look not as irritated as he currently was. "If you had nothing to help, please cut that out, Lucas."He was taken aback. He never heard Moon talk to him that way again after they argued about the incident of his parents for so long. He finally realized what he was getting at."You said you don't want to be like me, so why are you being mad like that?" Lucas replied calmly, as he realized that his cousin was not in a mood for his humor."It was such a pity, Lucas. You

He had spotted Doll standing over at the edge of the floor, looking down as if talking into someone below her.Everyone around him was looking enthusiastic and animated. Some were having their bags behind them and hopping cockily like a bunny or rabbit. What was the commotion now?He walked towards Doll and started to pat her left shoulder. "Doll. Where was Moon?" he asked.Doll looked over him. "Why are you asking me?" she laughed. Her aura was light and joyful. "Wasn't he with you before you enter the school? I should be the one asking you that. Where is Moon?""Well, that man probably was still angry with me." He began to lean at the metal rods that prevented anyone from falling. It was the border of the floor. "After I had berated him in

She hasn't had the chance to know if it's true because, after the mess that happened in the town square, Principal Lyns went to them instantly when she had heard what happened. Since that time, they went back as per the Headmaster's request.Principal Lyns was angry. What Doll did was very risky. Just a small mistake and it will become a big mess. She nearly dragged Doll alongside her inside the car. She can't understand why was his Dad was this strict to make her be watched out by Principal Lyns.But if there was one thing Doll was thankful for, that was when Principal Lyns gave some serious punishments to those four men who have made the trouble to the old man Rios.Doll couldn't sleep that night.

He started to have trouble with his breathing and he smelled the strong scent of his own blood.He tried to stand up again and suddenly felt his body falling. He decided to use his broken arm to support himself as he bumped the wall instead. The pain intensified as he laid his back on the wall with his weakened knees. His back had been hit many times.It was a few meters before he reached the open door. He held the doorway and fell on his knees. His whole body later fell and lay on the floor as he closed his eyes. The pain was so severe that he felt he was about to die. Those guys have to pay for this!He opened his eyes to witness that he was now outside the Null Room. He was facing the floor of the hall

He can take it."Lucas felt a thin and sharp object entering some portion of his skin from his right arm. He could feel the strange sensation of the fluid flowing out of it and sipping into his body. The effect it brought was painful to him. He almost winced as he felt that he was laying down on a bed; he felt like floating."I told you, the dosage is too much. I'm worried.""Lucas can handle that dose."He finally felt the whole effect of that fluid inside him. It was the most painful thing he knew! More painful than the Null Room incident. It felt like he was banging his head on the wall. He closed his eyes hardly because of the pain.After which, he started to familiarize himse

Lucas noted to himself.Footsteps heard.They all looked back to witness someone going towards them.THUD! The girl that was supposed to go towards them fell onto the Ground! Lucas rushed to help her."Are you okay?!" Lucas panicked, as well as Moon and Doll. The rest of them went there to see who is that girl.The girl looked pale. She has her hip-length, blue hair. She was bruised and exhausted.----"So that Ender has the power to control others with her loud noise?" Doll asked, sitting on a boulder along with the others.The girl they met was still weak, and was still lying on their made-up bed. Moon and Ghaile were there near at her to treat her."We should check if the others were also okay.." Winter whispered."No! Let them

Lucas, Moon, Winter, Ghaile and Doll reside at the same spot while everyone are scattered."Only 8 Participants should be left on the Ground before we end the Selection. Those 8 will be trained and will be the part of White Day's team for the Tournament."Principal Lyns instructed the rules of the Selection. Standing in the middle of the whole city-like field. Holding a microphone, she said "It was not a one-on-one battle, nor tag battles.. It was an all-out war!""It was like what the Tournament does. Even a group of people can beat a single one if they wanted. They can hide to prevent being defeated, too.""You can be defeated anytime. You can stand again anytime you fall. But one thing is for sure.. The one who keeps standing until the end will be the one who will be selected!"Lucas listened carefully despite being nauseous yesterday. He can't sleep that night, thinking about the dan

My Dad immediately opened up the door for me."Where did you came from?""Just there with—""What did you get with what you're doing, huh, Xia?" He was furious.How did he know?"D-Dad…""Stop what you're doing, Xia. You won't get anything out of it!" He was so angry, I couldn't stare at his eyes. "You'll just be damned there!""But, Dad...""I want you to stop! Another news about you that was related to that woman… you'll be grounded!"I no longer answered. I just nodded and went straight to my bedroom. I could understand why he was worried for me. His worry was obvious in the tone of his voice.How can I investigate further? The three suspects have been confirmed, the only one left is the latter. Who are you? Are you involved? Did you leave a trace? Why did you come back?It was hard! So many questions were in my mind until now. But how can I answer all of this when I have limited things to do?I fell asleep thinking. T
Fire Starter at White Day High Chapter 41: The Next Volume
As Lucas was asleep, he was unaware that The Ender was outside the apartment. She was wandering outside, chanting a different language. It sounded like a fable or a tale.The wind blew outside the apartment, at the cliff where The Ender was walking. As she held onto the grass, she continued talking about the chants she was musing over."THE HAUNTED HOUSE"She talked. Then, she began narrating."Oh, Rosy! I was told that the house you bought was haunted," said Ariana, new friend of mine.We have moved there recently, in Ariana's town and the news that greeted me was that— there was a ghost inside our house that they said was haunted. I don't believe them. It was almost a month when we got here but there was no sighting of any ghostly thing here. The thing I was afraid of was my younger brother that was always laughing."Where did you get that hearsay? You're already a college student and that spooky stories we use to scare kids was still your thing," I said, almost laughing loudly at h
Fire Starter at White Day High Chapter 40: Night Before the Selection
Chapter 40: Night Before the SelectionA few hours have passed since the Press Conference took place at the White Day High as well as the conversation with Lucas and Vacio. As Lucas lied on his bed, he grabbed his phone for some news he wanted to read.Bunch of onlookers are still continuing to bash him online, adding the scene he created at the meeting. Some are also blaming him for the expelling of the Two Bastions.But the cynosure of all the news article was the scene he created while brawling with Mister Vacio. That was a bad news. He didn't know what made him do that.The ruckus continued nonstop, and the stares given to him have changed, according to what he felt that time. If before, they look at him in contempt, now they were avoiding him as if they were intimidated. Lucas didn't really understand the people in this school as he covered himself with a blanket on his bed at his apartment.But what he didn’t expect was that he wasn’t punished because of the scene he made.

Fire Starter at White Day High Chapter 39: The Name He Was Called
Chapter 39: The Name He Was CalledLucas stood before a coffee shop that was located near the city center of White Day. Before he even got there, he realized that Mister Vacio had already arrived. He was so punctual and having some kind of stuff late wasn't his thing.One look was enough for him to recognize Vacio. In the dim light, he was sitting quietly beside a scenery window with a pot of untouched mint tea near his hand. He slightly tilted his face towards the window and looked like he was irritated.His tuxedo was buffed and it looked like his right hand was casted. Lucas didn't know what caused his hand to be like that, but he must bet it was for the public sympathy. Since all the people believed that he was the one who caused damages to Vacio, it was easy for him to rev things up by disguising as the injured one.Outside the window, there were lush broad-leaved trees that caused him to seem warmer and petty than usual. However, Lucas knew that it was just the illusion of a res

Chapter 38: How Do You Know It?Lucas continued walking out, but he was petrified when he heard that name. He didn't know if that was Vacio trying to piss him off, but it was a different voice.The words "Nice speech, Blaze Harper…" slowly resonated inside the hall as he stopped walking.He turned harshly to where it came from and saw a familiar man clapping with a smile from the far corner of the Conference Hall. He was greatly taken aback. He knew his haughty aura very well. He was not Mister Vacio.Isn't that Coach Clive?His memories of when he battled Vacio reappeared like sprouts. Was it true? Did Vacio say that Coach Clive knew all of the events from the past life he was saying? How come it was true?With all of the happenings interrupting her thoughts, Lucas recalled how Clive was overbearing and protective over him, significantly with the Null Room Incident. He cannot help his temper and walked back to the Conference Hall with an obvious anger.Everyone turned to look as he h

For some remaining time, the Overall Skill Selection will be held.But with that afternoon, as he was readying to practice, his Official Media channel began crowding with posts demanding that he should apologize to Mister Vacio. Apart from that were posts demanding that he should leave the White Day High as well. Lucas got tired of reading all those posts, so he locked himself inside the training room and practiced his agility once again.Once finished, Doll happened to call him and asked, "Lucas, are you okay?"Lucas tried his best to relax himself and wipe his sweat inside the training room full of fallen swords and knives, as he half-leaned on the nearly-crushed wall; his fingers trailing on the swelling wound he had gotten. He replied to Doll with a sigh, "I'm good.""Do you need any help?"He heard the concern from Doll after her reply; his lips

He has been acting strange since the day of Doll's abduction.As the turned right to the next chamber, a pair of hands took him next to the wall and grabbed his arm above his head. "What do you think you're doing?"Lucas saw Zanc glaring sharply at him in anger. He took a big step forward, still holding his arm.His right wrist was held in his vice-like grip and was extremely painful to him, but his eyes were cold and trained on Zanc. This was the spot where he usually assault, since he knew he was injured with this. He doted on his brown face, his left cheek was swollen.That punch he gave him; he made sure that Zanc's face will be in this condition, blood appearing at the edge of his lips. He remembered how he laid on the floor where he fell with Maru, looking pitiful and confounded.To thin
