“You are late.”
“Yeah, did I make you wait for long?”
Lanlan shook her head.
“Nope. I also got here a few moments ago.”
Sandhya noticed that lanlan was less energetic than usual.
“What happened? You look drained.”
Lanlan sighed, “Yeah, so much for coming first in the entrance exam. Everyone’s eyes were kind of glued on to me. They were waiting like vultures for me to make a mistake so that they could tear me up. But thanks to Lola’s tuition it saved me a lot.”
After a momentary silence, she asked, “What about you? You also look worn out.”
Sandhya looked at the sky, there was some time before evening.
“Nothing much. It seems like we faced the same storm but our places were different?”
Lanlan laughed, “I see.”
As they were walking towards Sandhya noticed Serena near the entrance gate talking
Miss Selly entered to take class. She glanced towards Kane’s desk to see if Sandhya is still sitting there. Her eyes widened for a second and turned into a subtle smile. “So, where were we last time? ...” During the lunch break, more students were present in the classroom than the day before. Sandhya guessed they must be waiting to see if Luisa and Felicita will do something for yesterday’s humiliation. Instead, something else happened which startled them. A girl wearing senior’s uniform entered the classroom seemingly searching for someone. When her eyes landed on Sandhya her eyes lit up and she pointed at her. “You, the girl sitting beside 11th star come with me.” This time it was Sandhya who was dumbstruck. She pointed at herself and asked, “Me?” “Is there anyone else sitting beside 11th star? Follow me.” She turned and walked away. Without any clue Sandhya followed and ran out of the classroom. She was walking
She walked towards her desk. There was still some distance between her and the desk when she sensed danger and instinctively leaped two steps back.Several wooden swords hit the place where Sandhya was a moment ago. “What the…” She looked at the front to see what was going on. Two thick branches came into her view moving towards her with tremendous speed. She ducked. A deep frown etched on her face.‘Swoosh.’Another thick branch hit her from one side. Sandhya knocked on to a desk and toppled. She activated her mana layer and blocked it but it was late. Her hands started to bleed due to the cuts made by the branches.‘Fwish…’Another wave of wooden arrows swarmed on her from various directions. She rolled away. The swords pierced into the hardwood desk. Thankfully no one was sitting in that area.Sandhya heard crackling sounds beneath her. Getting up she stepped far aw
Ren puffed her cheeks up while Sandhya shrugged her shoulders.“Shall we go now?”“Yeah…”When they got out of the academy building Ren asked, “Wouldn’t you like to visit the headmistress?”“Hm? Why?”“To tell her about this incident. Felicita and Luisa might try to smear your name. If you tell the headmistress everything beforehand then you may not get punished.”“I don’t think so.” Sandhya replied.“Why?”“First of all, even though they had initiated the fight and I was trying to defend, the classroom got damaged in which I was a part. So, technically I should be punished for this as well or students will take the rules lightly.Second, the incident happened during lunch break and no one was seriously injured so higher-ups may not put much stress on it. They may get it closed saying that this was just a small fe
Ren had a weird expression on her face when Sandhya showed her the medicine she was holding, “The wound looked deep so went to bring medicine. While returning I came across this stall who was selling these so I bought them.” Ren looked at Sandhya’s calm face as if it’s her daily job buying medicine and sweet potatoes. She internally facepalmed herself. “Well, come in.” Sandhya nodded and entered the house. The house was nicely furnished with just the daily necessities. The front door opens directly to the living area. She put the baked potatoes on the table and her bag on a chair while Ren went into the kitchen to wash her wound. Some time passed and Sandhya entered the kitchen. Ren was standing in front of the faucet with her eyes closed while trying to put her hand underwater. She looked like a reluctant kid who doesn’t want to take her injection. ‘It will take forever.’ She sighed and took a small cloth to clean the wound. Since Ren was busy deciding she didn’t notice Sandhy
Lola rolled her eyes. No doubt about it she is turning like her sly best friend. They are sisters after all. …. The next day Sandhya and lanlan were walking to the academy when Sandhya asked, “What happened about the duel between you and that girl named Wynn?” “We’ll duel in today's break at the practice ground before our lessons.” Said Lanlan. When they reached the entrance gate, they saw Wynn and her two friends standing there waiting for someone or maybe for them? “You are here.” She said looking at them. “I thought you may not come so I was waiting here to confirm but looks like you didn’t back off on your words.” Lanlan only returned it with a smile. “All the best to both of you.” Said Sandhya to both of them. “I was also waiting for you. I wanted to invite you to see the match.” Said Wynn. “Sure, I will be present there.” Wynn nodded and said to lanlan, “Let’s go.” Lanlan sighed and they went to their classrooms. “You came.” Sandhya turned her head and saw Aina st
She said this loudly so that each and everyone present in the classroom could hear her. The student's jaws dropped after hearing this. They indeed had noticed it and they also knew the real incident but who could tell these mind-sick girls that are way head over heels about Kane.Some boys couldn’t stop their laughs so muffled sounds of laughter echoed in the room. Those girls glared at Sandhya and those boys who dared to laugh.‘Did she just call them crazy?’ Thought those girls in their mind.Those boys also stopped laughing instantly knowing that if they didn’t then it might become their last laugh.Sandhya waited for Kane to speak.‘Say something. At least say a word so that I can clean this mess up.’ Sandhya yelled at Kane in her mind. But when she didn’t even see a shift in Kane’s face, she decided to initiate it herself.“Is there anything between us, Kane?”She asked and slammed the desk to get his attention. Kane finally looked at her. He stared at her deep brown eyes who wer
Sandhya nodded and watched the whole fight. The time they had for the fight ended and the result was a draw. Both of them were equally matched and both of them had sustained some damage. The fight ended and the crowd dispersed. Jazz and Sandhya went to them. Jazz handed both of them a healing crystal to treat the wounds.“That was a nice fight. Both of you must have enjoyed it.”“You were late though.” Said Wynn. Her eyes landed on her tag and her weapon.“You are a patrol member?” “Yep, just joined today. Sorry, I didn’t make it on time. But I enjoyed watching you two nonetheless.”Sandhya and Jazz went towards the playing grounds. On the way, they met some troublemakers but Jazz was able to pacify them. Sandhya watched and noticed how he was doing it so that she could apply those techniques. They were walking beside a football ground when a ball hit Sandhya with tremendous speed. Sandhya put up her mana layer but the timing was slow. She was pushed back quite some meter away. Wh
The impact was great. Sandhya’s eyes blurred and her head was dizzy. She slumped on the ground while holding onto the net. “Are you alright?”She shook her head and tried to get up. “Why didn’t you use your mana layer? I’m amazed you are still standing.” Demi said.A while later her dizziness subsided and her eyes cleared. She saw Demi resting near the post. “How much time did I take?”“10 minutes. Much faster than a normal person.”He gave her water to drink and replenish her energy. “There are 20 minutes left. Do you want to continue or want to get some rest?”“I will continue.”“Then you better use mana layer or else you won’t last.”Demi prepared himself to kick the ball. He gave a quick look to confirm Sandhya is alright and gathered all his energy on his foot. With a swing, his foot touched the ball sending it towards her. Sandhya took a deep calm breath and replayed all the moments where she had practiced with her magic. Regaining her strength and confidence she poured all
