Because I was standing behind her, she couldn't see who I was.
As for her companions— they recognized my face, and were stunned in shock.
Six of them wore a black masks covering their faces. They had gloves, and they even wore coloured contact lenses to hide their eye colour.
… That's awfully well prepared. They aren't those Second Year C-Class students listed in the check-in records, are they?
"That's my line." I retorted while gently twisting her arm.
"Ahhh…!?"
The girl was forced to let go of her knife because of the pain.
Still grabbing her arm, I removed her hood; it revealed her beautiful, long scarlet hair.
It doesn't seem like a wig, but I can't really tell whether it is a wig or not. Nevertheless, not one of the seven students that I memorized earlier has this kind of hairstyle or hair col
I hurriedly head back to the Second Year Faculty.…Has it been five minutes already…? Let's hope those people haven't fled the scene.When I got back to the central courtyard, no one was there anymore.The bullets, bullet shells, glove and flip knife, were gone. Even if I scanned the whole area for metal detection, none of them showed up.What's left was the bullet hole left at the tree trunk and the ground, and this stain on the grass is probably Lefiya's blood.Annoyed by not having any solid evidence, I heaved a long sigh.It was when I realized a strand of scarlet hair stuck on my shirt and the pistol the girl used was in my pocket.…Better capture some images about these first.The only solid evidence I had now were only this strand of scarlet hair and the fingerprints on this pistol.
It was said that elves are the most prideful among all races, even more so than dragons.They are a race specialising in the use of magic in which every one of them had an extraordinary amount of mana that stood at the top of all races.They had a similar appearance to humans except for their long ears. It was also said that every one of them is beautiful, and perhaps such is the cause of their arrogance.That said, the worst ones are the light elves living in Alfheim, which is one of the countries in the World Tree Yggdrasil Republic, surrounding the world tree Yggdrasil.That said, there are also dark elves, sea elves, snow elves, and forest elves.Among these five elves races, forest elves— said to be one with the forest, were in charge of the World Tree, Yggdrasil.Because the fairies were said to live within Yggdrasil.Fairies
CLAP."Alright then, let's get down to business, shall we?"With a clap, Principal invited us to sit in front of his desk as he casually sat on his seat.BAM!!!He immediately slammed his fist down on the table when we sat."WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, LEFIYA RIOS CHALLIA!? HOW MANY TIMES HAD I WARNED YOU NOT TO STICK YOURSELF INTO TROUBLE!!?" Principal yelled with bloodcurdling anger.…It made a dent at the table.It surprised Lefiya so much that her hair turned mauve purple, but not me— I'm already used to it. It's his common pattern to slam onto something when he's angry."Wait, so it's like, she's gone missing before too?" I asked."No, no, that's not it." Principal corrected me. "It's just that every single trouble she involves herself in is putting this country into greatttttt danger.""I-I-I-I-I'm sorry……" Lefiya hurriedly apologises by bowing her head several times."What do you mean…… putting this country into greattttttt danger?" I asked.Principal heaved a short sigh afterwards
Lefiya continues to apologise with her head lowered."… It's no use to blame her about that now," I said. "For now… let's just focus on these."Telling him that, I look at the items on the desk.A silver semi-auto pistol with a magazine of a capacity of 20 bullets.19 9×18mm Ultra bullets.A strand of scarlet hair.Video: Lefiya's bullied scene with video quality of 4k, 120 FPSPicture 1: Lefiya's blood stain on the grassPicture 2: Damaged tree trunk and bullet holePicture 3: Damaged grass and soil and bullet hole"Looks like the only thing useful is probably the fingerprints on the gun and that one strand of hair…" I said."No, don't you give me that." Principal retorted with his eyes squinted at me, seemingly annoyed. "You al
Magic, or magic spells is a supernatural power to bend the laws of nature. It could be cast by converting the source, which is mana, and performing either one of the 'three keys', which are the catalyst for it.Before talking about the 'three keys', let's talk about mana.To begin with, what is mana?It's a form of energy that could be converted into magic spells— but only by performing either one of the 'three keys' could convert mana into magic.Mana was stored inside your body— the mana core. Like how unique it was in everybody's Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), fingerprints, and even their genetic and cultural traits, everyone was born with a different mana capacity, density and wavelength from each other; there may be similarities, but not the same. Just the mana capacity itself is rather distinct when you compare human's mana capacity (the lowest) with the elves (one of the highest).
Nowadays, there aren't many who mastered all three keys. Those who mastered them are called the triplex magicians, which were rare to find in this era."Yes, I'm one. And…?" Lefiya answered without being proud, or rather, she was unconcerned about it."Oh, nothing," I replied. "I was merely curious about it.""…That sounds like the lines of a person who will ask me a favour later," Lefiya said to me with a stern look."Why, indeed," I answered blandly. "How did you know?""…From experience." When Lefiya made that remark, her stern, cold expression remained."Sounds like a bad one," I said."…It is." She answered coldly.Whatever happened in her past looked like she'd been through a lot."Oh, that's right— Lefiya, do you have any plans later?" I asked. 
Hot.…So hot.The weather's so hot.It's been a while since I last felt summer heat.Since I met Kuroyuki Shiroha, my concept regarding heat seems to disappear.Okay… it looks like I got here a little early. I might as well ask Mr Waals Junior regarding to 'that'.Activating my screen, I looked for Reus Waals's contact with my authorisation and contacted him through the IKAssembly.'Morning, Reus Waals' I texted.'This is Lucifer Nightwalker von Nightmare, the special student''I have a favour to ask of you'
After Persia and I rode the subway station towards the centre of the Central District, I immediately got off the train and was currently…“Blerghhhh……………………”…puking my soul out in the men’s washroom.Ugh, I feel like crap.I can’t believe I had motion sickness.Come to think of it, this was my first time riding a train. It was unexpected because I was fine despite riding a shaking helicopter under such crude weather.So… a train motion sickness it is.I still had to ride it one more time when we went back… ugh…… just thinking about it gives me the chills.‘I bought the pills’ Persia sent me a message.‘U can come out now’Rinsing my mouth and throat with water, I sloppily exited the washroom with a fatigued look.“Here, water,” Persia said as she gave me a bottle of water.“…Thanks, Persia……”“I also bought the pills you wanted.”Saying that, Persia handed over the entire tablets of Antihistamines.Antihistamines… I might feel drowsy, dizzy, and decreased mental alertness from the si
