Chapter 9: GATHERING

Walking through the academy in search of his domitory, he came across a group gathered in a place and staring at something. He decided to ignore and continued searching when he heard a familiar voice calling his name.

"Hey Vondrel.... let's go check out what's going on over there." james said

"Nah...i don't have time for that, I need to find my dormitory and settle down."Vondrel replied. "Class will start tomorrow, I need to be prepared." he added

"Snort.... don't be such a boring guy, let's go check it out." James said. "okay I promise to accompany you when searching for your dorm, is that okay by you? "he added

"Huh....okay let's see what's going on." Vondrel replied

'Why Is he suddenly feeling attached ' Vondrel gave James a weary look, after living a lonely life, it feels odd for someone he just met to try getting attached.

'BANG'

Suddenly there was a loud bang and someone was sent flying and crashing against Vondrel. He was also sent flying and they both crashed on a near by wall.

Vondrel spat out blood without opening his eyes, not knowing he actually spat on someone's face. He felt a movement on him, he immediately jumped up while pushing the weight off his body, not knowing it was a human he pushed.

He felt something soft and moist, the human fell down hard on the floor and screamed. He heard a girl's scream, looking to his side, he saw a somewhat familiar face staring at him with a pained look.

He saw a girl with white flowing hair that touches her waist, a very beautiful girl, whose pained is able to give men a love trauma and make them day-dream. Her beauty also make fellow girls jealous.

'what...did I just thought about how alluring her pained look is' Vondrel thought while trying to hide his embarrassment.

He then stared at the well known girl, whose name is Rina Willis. Instead of immediately saying sorry, he was captivated by her beauty.

"Why did you push me so hard?" Rina asked as her pained look changed into a scowl.

"Huh....i'm very sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, it was a mistake." Vondrel replied hurriedly.

Knowing what he was referring to, Rina blushed. Her face was slightly red... As if remembering something, her face suddenly grew pale and darkened. She stood up and dusted her cloths, then she ignored vondrel while stepping forward.

"I said i'm sorry, I didn't intentionally do that." Vondrel exclaimed thinking she wanted to retaliate

When she stepped close to him, she didn't stop there, she continued moving forward and staring forward. The audience around followed her gaze and knew she wasn't done with her previous case.

At the center of the crowd with a smirk on his face stood "Larry Grandroar" a noble. Rina stood in front of him with a death glare while he was grinning.

"You..... how dare you lay your filthy hand on me." Rina shouted angrily

"You dare call my hand a filt? Yeah i'll use that very hand to whoop your ass and make you one of my concubines....you slut." Larry retorted

'BOOM'

Rina's aura exploded, the force from her aura sent some student close by flying, it even scattered Larry's curled hair.

"Haha....you weak slut rea....." before Larry could finish his word, he felt a punch hit his gut.

'BANG'

He was sent flying to a far distance. He landed roughly on the hard ground with a grunt and blood coming out from the corner of his mouth.

Getting up from the ground, Larry was mad now and ready to show the bitch her place. When he realized there was blood at the corner of his mouth, with anger, he unleashed his aura and stared intently at Rina while she was also glaring at him.

'BOOM'

They both moved with speed and force with their fist slightly raised.

'BANG'

A loud bang was heard when their fist collided... they were both flung back from the force, their attack generate a shock wave that cracked the ground where their fist collided like a crack glass.

They stared intently at each other before Larry's aura changed and an evil laughter resounded, a dark aura seeped out of his body and transformed into a skull whose eyes are filled with darkness and emitting a nostalgic aura from its mouth.

It condensed and become bigger while a corrosive aura encompass the skull with its evil laughter. Everyone around ran away and left quite a distance from him because the corrosive aura was consuming everything in its perimeter.

They all gasped, seeing the iconic ability of one of the noble clans that have the ability of death(the grandroar ability is the iconic skull of death).Larry was ready to unleash the power of death on his opponent when he noticed what his opponent was doing, he stopped to watch.

Suddenly a chilling aura seeped out of a figure, it condensed into a snow before covering it's perimeter with snow, strands of ice pops up, where the figure is standing changed into a place made of ice. She raised her arm and pointed it to Larry while Larry did the same, they were ready to unleash their overbearing attack.

Before the attack could leave their senders...another figure appeared in their midst with his hands raised, immediately their powerful attack was neutralized.

Everyone was awestruck and staring at the new figure, The figure was cladded with a military uniform that has crimson colour.

"You lads are not allowed to fight in a public gathering, what if your attack miss it's target and hurts innocent people, how so you want the academy to answer to the higher ups." the figure said with a displeased tone

"My attack can only hurt people who are regarded as trash, so trashes aren't expected to be in this academy. It's a stain to my nobility." Larry replied

"I can see you're the rude type.. let me warn you, this is the ECA(EVERCOAST ACADEMY). It's not your home so you can't act as you please here.. else you'll be severely punished. " the figure stated with a strong tone

"I''m sorry sir, I got carried away " Rina voiced out from the sideline

"Very well...it's okay, you can be on your way. " the figure replied with a smile

She went ahead to search for her dorm, leaving the area instantly.

"And you.... won't you apologize?" the figure questioned

"Snort... I'm sorry too, that girl is just a bitch who thinks highly of herself, you could have let me whoop her ass." Larry replied

"sigh... you're just a spoilt brat that lack manners, just get out of my sight before I lose it. " the figure exclaimed with a slightly angry tone

"Yeah I will... but let me tell you something, I'll find you and teach you a lesson never to mess with a noble, but not after I've dealt with that ant." Larry retorted

"I dare you to come after me, I'll be very happy to teach you this cry baby a lesson." the figure said with a smirk

"How dare you call me a cry baby, I'll make you pay!!! " Larry shouted angrily

'BOOM'

The dark aura left his body and converged on the figure, the iconic skull of death launched forward at the figure to shower him with the power of death.

The figure snorted before the aura of an expert stage seeped out of him and cancelled Larry's attack and also applied pressure on Larry.

Without the man moving an inch, Larry fell down on his knee with a frown, his expression then changed to that of pain, before he fell face flat. He felt as if a truck was been placed on his back... he groaned in pain.

"Won't you apologize so I can pardon you... retarded ant." the figure said with a smile

"Hey agent Kyle.....stop what you're doing, you're by no means giving the right to hurt any student. " a female that wore a red and gold uniform said to the figure who was being addressed as agent Kyle with a fearful expression .

"Sure sure I'll free him, but not until he apologises for been rude. " replied agent kyle with the smile still on his face

note: The female is a sergeant in the military and also staff in the academy while agent Kyle is an agent in the military (special agent).

"Hey kid.... just swallow your pride and apologize immediately" the female sergeant said to Larry.

"No I won't, I'll pull through and punish him" larry groaned while trying effortlessly to push his body off the ground.

"Agent Kyle plea.... " before she could finish her statement, agent Kyle shook his head with the smirk still plastered on his face while everyone watched with a gloomy expression.

'Such display and dominance of power, how would I fare if I was in place of that boy' Vondrel wondered

After what seem like eternity but was just few minutes, Larry gave up

"I''m sorry..... damn it i'm sorry " Larry screamed in pain

"Not acceptable " agent Kyle exclaimed

"I'm very sorry please it hurts" Larry pleaded with tears

"Very well then" agent Kyle said and the next thing he vanished into thin air. The female sergeant sighed and also walked away, not paying attention to the gathered students nor to the boy on the floor.
