At the time Xander stepped inside this room, he could tell there was a suddenly change of weather, unknown to him his fellow students were also expriencing the same thing. What gave him a confirmation that this wasn't just a chilly feeling instead it was an arcana, it was due to a scary feeling which was accompanied by a cold.
Still overwhilmed within his thought not sure what or how to react, a deep voice distracted Xander.
"So you are the one who killed my son?" White haired man asked. "I can tell just by looking at you."
"Yes... I killed him." Xander replied with his usual plain voice.
Suddenly the air tensed after his reply, looking at who was releasing such amount of energy was a white haired man and in a flash of a second Xander was grabbed through his neck, his legs were no longer on the ground instead on the air.
"You are just a fu*king little cat, how on earth do you speak with that confidence in front of me." A white haired man shouted, crenching his neck a little bit Xander groans for an extremly pain from his neck. "I am Baron and a father, yet you have just killed my son and still give out the answer as you wish?"
Throwing Xander at the side he crushed through a table and break it before falling down. Struggling to breath Xander tried to push himself off the ground but then the pain spread through his back all the way to his nape, and everything infront of him turned blur before he passed out.
open his eyes, he found himself sleeping on a floor, looking around to see if he can spot something familiar but it was totally dark. The room had only one little window which was placed above near a ceiling board but no light to see through, just then the pain spread through his eyes like something was pulling apart inside his own eyes.
After a short worse period, he recovered and the pain had completely disappear, opening his eyes he felt something strange while darting his eyes he could see slightly clearly.
What he didn't know though was his iris which has grown a little larger like that of a cat together with his pupil which has opened extremly wide and admit much more light than a normal human eye can, when looking at a certain direction he saw a door made of metal like materials without doubt it was the entrace into whatever the room he is. The room was almost empty except for him laying on the floor.
Pushing himself from the ground, Xander stood up, still felt like he is on the verge of falling he walked to the metal door as he tried to observe if he can spot something that can gave him an idea of where he was, still nothing helped him.
'where am I? Why do I feel so strange? My body seems a bit heavy and... my steps are weird.' Xander thought while observing his own body. 'Did they do something?... That white haired bitch, he nearly killed me... just how strong is he, will I be able to go against him at some day?'
'Now that I'm thinking about it, how many monsters are there roaming around the wolrd... there might be others who are even more powerful than him. I should find the way to grow stronger..., and since fighting beasts also makes me grow stronger, then the time I was waiting for, has arrived.'
With nothing else to do, Xander went at the back of the room and sat down thinking of his next move.
Time passed without anything happen or being approached, he couldn't tell if it's day or night neither how much time has passed, all he saw was darkness.
After a long time passed, Xander heard faint foot steps, and as time goes on, they became more and more louder. It was safe to say whoever making those steps were coming his way. And as the steps getting closer, the orbs around the room dimmed with different colors until they full light up.
Still sat at the back of the room a human figure covered with a full set armour appeared behind a metal door.
'Is this....' Before he got the time to sort out his thought, an unfamiliar voice resounded.
"Get up and follow me." It was deep and frighten which carries the aura of dominion, it's like he was not in aa place to say a single word.
Seeing a man infront of him, Xander felt a shiver down his spine but there and then, a smile replaced his face for some reason.
"Just you?" Xander asked, seeing no response he went for the next question.
"Where do you want to take me?" Xander asked with his plain voice as if he don't care who was infront of him.
"Are you real that stubborn as they said?" A man in armour said. "You are not in a place to comment what I asked you to do young boy, I order you to follow me." A man in armour said while raising his hand infront before he whispered some words and strangely, a combination lock unlocked and a man walked away.
Xander stood up and followed the man as he was commanded to. Walking through the tunnels a man suddenly stopped and look behind, seeing Xander was there he looked above at the vault where there was a hole before he took a turn and proceed with his match until he was out of the dungeon. Looking behind Xander was nowhere to be seen.
"Shit! I knew he will be of a troublesome. How on earth does he make silence steps like that?" A man in armour mumbled in disbelief when he turn around, and Xander was nowhere to be seen. "I will kill you little brat." He shouted.
Walking back inside the dungeon, a man in armour was searching for Xander. Reaching at some point inside the dungeon he looked at the vault where a hole was located.
'Could he have pass here, If I am not wrong the information states he has no arcana or atleast he hasn't unlock one.' A man in armour thought. 'If that's the matter how did he reach that distance without being noticed. I've passed to the other entrance since the dungeon has two entrace but the guardians of the entrace didn't see him which left me with one thought, he had use this to escape but how?... something is wrong with the boy.'
