If you want to brag you can brag, but why bring me into the picture?
We are friends after all, can't you show a little sympathy?
And yes, I don't think my looks are the best but are they really that bad? Do you really look that better than me?
Aiden cursed Ace in his mind when he heard his words. Couldn't he have been a little reserved? To go around bragging about his looks like this.... It made Aiden look like some ugly brat from prison.
'I am also to be blamed!'
Aiden thought with a sigh. He wasn't always the unhealthy lean bastard he is now. He used to be much more handsome.
Yes, much more than Ace at his peak. He was the definition of the god sent handsome guys described in anime or books.
All this changed when he started the programming of the app. He totally ignored his health thinking that after he was done, he would be a millionaire and he would be able to heal himself with the money.
Yet what happened? The app got destroyed even before he could see it's completion. What hurt him the most was that he wasn't even able to upload the source code to the cloud before everything got destroyed!
He greatly beleived that the app was part of the reason why he was here. Maybe there was a bug or he accidentally created something that sent him into this world.
However, all the evidence (the source code of the app) was gone! Moreover, even though he remembered some parts if the code he had written, they were just pieces and he couldn't link them together.
'Seems like I would have to try to figure out what happened to the source code!' Aiden thought. He then glanced at his now, slightly bony fingers and mumbled,
"And take care of myself now!"
*******
"Hehe, true," Chelsea giggled and said when she heard Ace's brag. However that single world, 'true', made Aiden wince as if more salt had been robbed on his wounds.
"Yeah," Ace nodded.
"Thank you for helping us,"
Just then, a voice interrupted the conversation. Turning their heads towards the source of the voice, Aiden saw Mr White walking towards them.
He looked quite okay now, he had somehow changed his clothes and was now wearing a calm smile as he walked towards them.
"Un!"
Chelsea just nodded and didn't say anything else. She seemed to be... ignoring Mr White?
"Anyway, I had no idea that someone from the Magic Association was with us!" Mr White said awkward trying to continue the conversation. If the students like Aiden and the others could tell that she was ignoring him, how could he, the principal of the school not realise this.
However, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't drag his weight in front of her. After all, not only was she stronger that him, she was also from the Mage Association.
"Yeah, the Mage Association sensed something suspicious going on. So they sent me to check it out. I was just doing what I was supposed to do."
Chelsea said, her tone, neither domineering or humble. It was just bland and a little.... cold?
"Hmm," Mr White nodded before looking at Ace.
"Follow me. I will send you to the academy!"
"Don't wory, I would send them there!" Chelsea said suddenly.
"Them?" Mr White asked with a confused expression.
"Yes, them. I will bring Aiden too," Chelsea said.
"Why?"
"Mhmm, I think his talent is greater than what you think!" Chelsea said.
"Em... Okay!" Mr White agreed without making much of a fuss.
"It is agreed then. I will meet you here tomorrow," Chelsea said as she turned to leave.
Just as she was about to leave though, Mr White stopped her,
"Can you let Ghost Face let the principals out?"
"Oh, yeah. I nearly forgot!" Chelsea said and snapped her fingers again.
This time, though, nothing disappeared and Ghost Face appeared in front of them.
At this moment, Ghost Face could only be described with one word: wasted. He was wasted.
His clothes were intact and everything looked fine. Yet, if one was to look at his eyes, one would realise that they looked absolutely dead as if he just went through somethig very, very terrible.
"Let them out?" Chelsea said coldly.
"Huh? What?" Ghost Face seemed to have only snapped out of his daze when he heard Chelsea.
"Let them out!" Chelsea said again.
"Em, okay!" Ghost Face said as he took a bottle from his pocket it was the same bottle he head used when he was capturing the principals.
He opened the bottle and the cloud which took all the principals away appeared again.
The cloud slowly spread around and soon, it retreated back into the bottle. After the cloud left though, the crowd saw the principals again they looked absolutely fine.
"Please, I don't want to go —"
Ghost Face was about to plead but Chelsea just snapped her fingers again and he disappeared.
'To force Ghost Face to beg for mercy, It seems like Chelsea isn't as simple as she seems,' Aiden made sure to keep a mental note about it.
"Are you scared?"
Chelsea asked when she saw Aiden looking at her with cautious eyes.
"Maybe?"
Aiden shrugged.
"Hmm, okay. See ya," Chelsea flashed Aiden a smile before flying away. Her behaviour was absolutely different from what she did when she was talking to Mr White.

[A/N:
**Important Note, Please Read!**
Okay, so yesterday, something happened. Due to my tiredness and sleepiness, I uploaded the same chapter twice without realising it.
What really surprised me though was that no one actually informed me about it and it was only when opened the webnovel app again this morning that I saw it.
Due to this, I have decided to release two chapters tomorrow. One as a punishment for making such a silly mistake and the other as the normal release.
Also, I have realised another thing. And that is, you guys don't vote at all. You don't comment alot or even vote. I know there are about 20 people reading my book daily but you don't seem to do anything. You just wait till a new chapter drops, read it and leave.
So please folks, vote. Remember, voting with a power stone is free. So remember to vote.
You can also drop a comment here and there ti help me correct my mistakes among others.
Also shout out to Pizkel_ for dropping 2 power stones yesterday. It helps alot and thanks.
Anyway, I will do as I said and release 2 Chapters tomorrow, Just remember to vote. Let's get this book to the top of the rankings. We can do this!!
See ya, bye. (*_*)
