Suspicious Instructor!

Just go back with her without causing any commotion. Do you understand?" Kathleen said as she found petting this tiger quite cute.

Growl~

The tiger suddenly growled after hearing Kathleen's words and moved away from her hand.

"Hmm, I don't think it understood what I said, may be I should go with the original plan." She muttered under her breath before rising up from the ground.

Looking around, she saw that all of the students were grouped at a single area and it seems there was a commotion happening there.

She walked towards them after locating Sophie and Rowena. The tiger cub behind her only kept watching at her back without blinking before Kathleen walked far and far away.

"Hey, what is going on here?" Kathleen's voice resounded in Sophie, Rowena and Lily's ears, who was beside Rowena as they turned towards Kathleen.

"A normal guard came running into a group of students a minute ago, since he seems to come from the outside of the dome, the guard's here suspected and attacked him thinking he was an assassin." Sophie replied watching the students who are practically pushing eachothers just to see the show.

The place where they currently present was nothing but a circle shaped area in the middle of the forest which was covered by a transparent dome, and this transparent dome is nothing but a magic array that was created to stop the magical beasts from entering into it.

The guards will be regularly placed here to guard the rare animals that was kept in this area for students to see.

"Damn it! Idiots, why are you all attacking me, I came here to report an important matter." The guard was came from outside shouted, he was being pushed down on to his knees forcefully by the armored guards.

"Stop, what is the commotion happening here." Arron's voice sounded as it followed with a huge mana wave which pushed down all the soldiers. The students also moved back a few steps even though the pressure didn't effect them.

Since all the guards are 3 to 4-star mages, Aaron's mana pressure simply made them unable to move, only the guard who was being attacked, found himself being able to move.

"Tell me what is the report thing that you're talking about a second ago?" Aaron questioned making the guard to become a little stiff.

"Th-the scouting guards noticed the flaming tiger clan's tigers were all moving towards this place, I was dispatched here to warn the instructor who was present here to evacuate the students." The guard said in a short sentence but he delivered exactly how much he needed to say.

"What? The flaming tiger clan is going to attack us?"

"What are those tigers even thinking, they will be killed by the Academy's mages if they attack the students."

"Maybe they are coming here for the tiger cub, after all, it's the child of their clan leader."

"If the lord beast level flaming tiger where to appear here, I don't think we can survive, after all, the guards here were not really high ranking. Maybe instructor Arron might be able to fight their clan leader but the remaining tigers will definitely attack us."

The students fell into panic as Chaos begin to ensue. Everyone tried to look for a way to escape.

"Silence, what are you all panicking about, this is not the time for that, make your way towards the domes entrance." He shouted as he flew into air, trying to find out the flaming tiger clan's location.

Kathleen who was watching wore frown on her face.

'The original scene was supposed to be a little different.'

The mother tiger of the tiger cub which was also the clan leader of the flaming tiger clan will come here to take back it's child to the core region of the forest, but it discovers the cub was beaten to a pulp by a human and that was Max.

It attacks all the students in it's rage, but instructor Arron being a 7-star great mage, the same level as the mother tiger, he will be able to stall some time for another 7-star great mage from the academy to appear here.

The tigers realising that they're at the disadvantage, they will retreat after the mother tiger taking the beaten up tiger cub with her. Of course, before it's departure, the mother tiger gives a warning to Max that the whole flaming tiger clan will be his enemies from now on.

However, since Max was not the one that fought the tiger cub this time, the story might be little different. But Kathleen found the timing and coincidence of this situation way too odd, in the novel nothing was said about Aaron being suspicious.

But in live, she could clearly see the battle was happened because Aaron wanted it to happen, and he was also the one that wanted to create this situation where the tiger cub would be injured so that mother tiger can get angry.

'He probably also know about this tiger's sudden arrival. His objectives might be to let all the students attacked by the tiger, and given how many students in this first year that are noble children like me or Sophie, or even an imperial family members like Rowena was also present here.

If I have to guess, his objectives might be to just kill as much as students from the first year here.

Seems like he might be one of them after all, and I learned that I also can't blindly trust the information that I read in the novel. well these are all nothing but speculations on him as I don't have any type of confirmation if he is really behind this plan or not.'

"Hey you three, stay close to me!" Kathleen shouted as to let Sophie, Rowena and Lily to hear her voice.

The swarm of students started to move towards the exit, where they can escape towards the academy.

But suddenly all of them are stopped and clutched their heads with their hands, they covered their ears after hearing a loud roaring sound that could burst a low ranking mage's ears if he didn't block his hearing senses.

Rooar~ Rooooar~
