All Chapters of Mystic Academy: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

KELANI POVI had been walking for close to an hour, but I doubted it. Walking for an hour and without getting to where Vesper was currently could only mean the mission had failed.Also, the unavailability of a wristwatch made it even worse to tell what the time was. The sky gave no hint either.It was cloudless, decorated with bright stars, and the moon was at its peak.My teeth rattled involuntarily as the cold wind swept across the narrow area. Goosebumps rose on my skin, and I caressed my arms, but that didn't make them go away.It wasn't entirely because of the chilly air; something was amiss. The same feeling I got before from being watched, and even when the black envelope was sent to me, I could feel it once again.Breathing out, I gazed around, careful not to touch the walls of the maze as was instructed.The hair at the nape of my neck tingled, and my palms turned clammy.I was frightened; that was very much obvious. Yet, I was curious and wanted to see who it was."Show your

KELANI POV My breath came out in short gasps as I continued to run to only the goddess knew where while not letting my body touch the wall of the maze. It was really difficult to keep running in a straight line, but then, I knew that was the only way I could prevent myself from getting sucked into the wall. Wheezing, I came to a halt as I reached a dead end. Grasping both my knees, I bent, taking a staggering breath. "No," I muttered, shaking my head as the hooves of the creature got even louder. There was no escape in sight. I could as well, touch the wall of the maze and get sucked in at this point. Staring at the moon that shone even brighter, I scowled. I was a werewolf. At least, that was what everyone kept saying, but I barely felt anything. I couldn't shift. A werewolf shouldn't be scared of such a creature. I had sensed the aura coming from it, and it was barely as strong as the other creatures that I had encountered. Yet, I doubted I could take it on. Everyone around

LANCE POV I didn't know how long we had been fighting for, but no matter what we did, our attack wasn't connecting. Vesper deflected everything with ease as though we were little, pesky, annoying flies that kept disturbing his morning rest. But I guess the only thing we were doing right was guarding Kelani and not allowing Vesper to reach her Also, we were attacking Vesper alone; no one had surfaced to butt in, which was a great thing for us. I doubted we could take Vesper and another person on. I was exhausted; ever since I had fallen into the unknown pit in the maze wall, it seemed to have sucked my energy partially. Also, I could see Riley. She seemed to be the one exhausted the most. She was not only combating with her hands, she was casting spells as well, even though we had delegated that to Lia alone. In all of us, Zain looked to be the only one filled with vitality. I wouldn't say he wasn't doing his best as we were doing; he just was the kind of person that didn't get w

KELANI POVPacing about the infirmary corridor, I stopped, frowning, watching through the glass wall that separated us from people inside the room."What's happening?" Riley asked.Turning to her, I shook my head. "I have no idea."Since we stepped out of the maze, Vesper had gone unconscious once again, and this time, nothing we did revived him.Not even Mrs Periwinkle's magical spell.The competition was temporarily halted. It wasn't as if there was much to do again since we were the first to reach Mrs Periwinkles before Brooke and her friends.Mrs Periwinkles had believed we did something wrong even though we hadn't. However, the only thing we had done was feeding Vesper the antidote while he was conscious.Perhaps that was the reason he kept going unconscious."You should sit down," Riley gripped my hand to stop me from pacing further."You've been walking around the hallway since we arrived here, and that was three hours ago. You're going to tire yourself out," she added."I'm fi

KELANI POV Looking at Vesper for the longest time, I shook my head. "It can't be." "Hey, I am not saying it is. It's just an assumption," Vesper said. "But I don't think you should think about that now," He said. "Why not?" I raised a brow. Finding my mother was what had been on my mind ever since I learnt of the possibility of her being alive. Also, the fact that monsters kept trailing me about could only mean that. "There are many things to think about," Vesper shrugged, then continued. "For instance, the fact that I am alive. Secondly, the announcement for the competition will be coming up soon, and lastly, it's the last day of school. Don't you think it's enough thing to think about?" Today was the last day of school. I was only just realizing that. Ever since the competition and monster hunting started, I never thought of the school going on a break. Perhaps because I had no one to go to and nothing to look forward to as well. Everything in my head was bleak, and I doubte
