9 Ripples in the Silent Night

It was night when Liu was summoned in the school by their teacher.

The teacher coming to Liu's house was confused why would they bring a student at this time on the school office? Is it because about that Lad Ai Quadro Elements?

The teacher thought to himself.

In the house, Liu was meditating there and specs of light were seen in this manner, colorful and vibrant, and he opened his eyes

Knock Knock

Sounds of knocking can be heard in his door, he went and opened it

"Liu? are you there?" a teacher asked.

Creak.

"Teacher? What can I help you?" Liu asked

"Its like this" the teacher told Liu about matters which the principal told him.

Both of them went to the school after Liu arranged his residence and turned off the lights.

=====

In a manor inside the royal palace

" What did you say?" the old man with a long beared and Golden robe and a crown on his head and multiple gems attached to it

"A-a Quadro elemental mage apprentice has emerge in the Mu Village" the handsome youth reported while kneeling on the old man seated at the center of the manor.

"A Quadro Elemental Mage huh?" The old man repeated the first statement of the handsome youth with a look of confusion.

"Kai, you better be not spouting bullshit," the old man harrumphed

"My apologies Sir, but I have saw it with my own two eyes and my elemental and mana perceptions cannot be decieved." the handsome answered in an anxious voice. scared that he might be punished

" If that is true then, A calamity will fall in the near future, keep tabs with this child and silence the school and the whole village about this matter, if they do not follow kill them all, this matter is very important," The old man looked into the door

"But sir massacring??" The youth was confused, he can kill people but with reason not with unreasonable things, killing innocent just for this lad?

"I said earlier kill the if they don't shut up and tell them that it's for their safety, Alright I will head out and report this to the Magistrate Pavilion, this matter is already rank as 7 star" the old man then disappeared thoroughly

" 7 star!? MY God!" this time the handsome youth realized how this matter is very confidential.

"and keep the boy safe," a voice rippled in the air

"Yes sir" the handsome youth replied with a kowtow where the voice came from.

In a Isolated space stood 4 people 1 man and 3 women

"Ming. The prophecy has started the chosen one has emerged" Quin'Er said to the three

"Quin'Er, I know, I have been there at the awakening" Ming replied with a nod

"Then do we help them about this ordeal or stand at the side" Shin asked

"Let's observe first" Quin'Er said with a deep gaze

" This ordeal was a prophecy by the Supreme Pontiff before she died, she didn't relay that we would help them" a White robed mage said

"But The Supreme Pontiff also didn't say that we can't help them" Shin Replied

"That, You have a point" the white robed mage said while closing her eyes

"Let's see what they can do, After all we four are Forbidden Magicians, we cannot resurface to the world yet, our figures will startle the enemies, clearly the one who is manipulating the Curse guild in their movement." she added.

"For the mean time that is" Ming said

============

In the School Office

"Liu how do you view Ai?" the principal asked

"he's my brother, my only brother, my family" Liu replied while holding Ai in his arms

"Then that's good," The principal stand and touched the temple of Ai,

" The capital will send someone here to silence us about this matter, every awakening has a supervisor seeing this ceremony unknown to everyone. Thus i thin this matter is already reported"

The principal looked at all the teachers that were summoned

"Yes!" all teachers understood what their principal is implying, and told all residents about the news, it was a smooth work. All residents agreed about it, because they know that treasure is dangerous to someone, there would be always eyes eyeing it for themselves.

====

It was midnight when Ai regained conscious after his awakening, and surprisingly Liu was still awake meditating beside Ai

"Liu, aaugh" Ai spoke and his head hurt and he fainted again.

Liu then awoken from his meditation and smiled slightly

"You are exhausted my brother, rest a bit more, your body is adjusting to the capacity which your elements are having," Liu patted Ai's head and he walked out of the house going somewhere.

======

Amidst the residents there was a young girl who walked outside in midnight, she changed appearance, from a young girl she was a beautiful woman. With a tantalizing beauty she slipped in the shadows, heading somewhere.

This was Ni aN, a curse guild spy that was staying here for information. But happenings today was a good news to them, she must report it, the Chancellor would rewards her and be very happy with her discovery, she might even be promoted to a rank 5 curse guild member.

While she was thinking about this she came to an abrupt stop.

A white robed man was standing in her path

"Curse guild huh?" The white robed man said not even looking at her.

'Danger!' Ni aN felt that quickly, no one new about here identity here and she had been staying here for 3 years already gathering info to their network. She immediately cast a Shadow spell

But her spell was rendered useless, the mana didn't work, or rather there was no mana in the surroundings at all, even her innate mana wasn't working at all, staying there in that dam, not moving.

She looked at the white robed man, but the man already vanished followed by her vision that turned a 360 degree turn, there she realized that her head was already cut from here body, that man was very strong. She didn't even felt the ripples in the energy.

She died even before grasping the opportunity of being rewarded and promoted.

How stupid of her.

The white robed man cleaned the area where they fought, or likely one side massacre. There were no traces of blood at all like nothing ever happened. The only thing that was weird was the mana now is visible in that area, earlier there was no mana at all.

"Luckily I've stopped the news from spreading, but how long can I delay it" the white robed man said while staring at a certain house
