Blonde hair.
The girl walked towards , as her eyes scanned Victoria, who was on the ground, blood dripping from her arm.
"I hope you can co-operate with us, student Kael."
I just stared at the girl before .
"Ashlyn Levaith. It’s a pleasure to et you."
Ashlyn bowed slightly instead of going for a handshake.
The girl was surprisingly polite.
"The instructors are on their way, and—"
Ashlyn paused as her gaze shifted towards Victoria.
"I hope you can spare our vice-president’s life."
"Was that an order?"
My lips stretched in amusent.
Ashlyn paused for a mont, as she stared into my eyes.
"No. It’s a request."
Thinking for a mont, I lowered my sword from Victoria’s neck while walking towards Ashlyn.
Standing a few inches away from her, I massaged my neck slowly after returning the sword to my storage.
"What made you think I was going for the kill?"
"I...I just felt it."
Ashlyn spoke, her voice low as a whisper.
"Oh. Looks like they have arrived."
My words made everyone turn their attention towards the instructors who had arrived at the scene.
At the forefront, I could see Elsa along with Zenur, as both of them looked at with mixed expressions.
"You sure took your ti."
My legs moved as I made my way towards the instructors, who were now scanning the students sprawled on the ground.
"It is the policy of the academy to let the student council handle all matters related to the students, including... disputes."
Elsa paused at the end, as she once again looked at my armless seniors, who looked... quite pathetic.
"We were not going to interfere till the end, but the situation could have taken a drastic turn had we not arrived."
Elsa completed her justification, as her brows furrowed slightly seeing the calm look on my face.
Sigh.
Though I found the conversation to be quite interesting... right now, I wanted nothing more than to take a nice warm shower and sleep on the bed.
Nodding my head at Elsa’s words, just as I was about to walk past her, she grabbed my arm, making stop in my tracks.
"..."
"You will have to explain everything, student Kael."
Elsa spoke, as her gaze moved across the bodies of the student council mbers.
"Hm? I thought the academy didn’t intervene in matters related to the students."
Elsa watched for a second before taking a step in my direction.
"Do you really want to do things that way?"
Elsa’s eyes had slightly narrowed as I felt a small amount of mana pressure covering from all sides.
Elsa was strong... too strong for the current .
There was no way I could defeat her or any of the other instructors, even if they attacked individually instead of in the group that they had co with.
Seeing Elsa’s expression, I didn’t know why, but—
I felt fearless at the mont.
All logic had disappeared from my mind, and my body felt like—
It was itching for another fight.
Haa...
Just what was happening with ?
If Elsa wanted, she could kill at this very mont, and I wouldn’t be able to even defend against her attack.
I couldn’t sense her core, so it was a given that she was far stronger than .
Still—
I had an instinctive urge to fight her...
To fight him.
To fight all of them.
Haa...
Sothing was wrong.
Taking slow, focused breaths, I tried to reduce the emotions that were stirring within .
Right now... attending the academy was more important than fighting like a beast.
I had already caused a ss, and there was no need to complicate things.
"Uh... actually, I was heading towards the headmaster’s office."
All of my earlier tone dropped down, as I spoke in a asured yet polite voice.
Elsa blinked her eyes, seeing the sudden change, but quickly composed herself.
"Why?"
Her face had twisted into a light frown, as she looked confused by my statent.
"I an... I have to apologise for everything that had happened today. So maybe... I will just confess before the headmaster."
I paused, letting Elsa, Zenur, and the rest of the instructors process my words.
"I don’t want to trouble you guys, so please, be at ease."
I could see a slight twitch in Zenur’s expression, though he managed to hide it well.
"That’s all good, but—"
"I will accompany him to the headmaster’s office."
Before Elsa could complete her statent, Zenur interrupted her, as he placed his hand on my shoulder before looking at Elsa again.
"You can make sure that the students are in good health. I will ensure that proper procedures are followed in regard to his punishnt—"
"I wasn’t in the wrong."
I interrupted Zenur, as the instructor turned his head to look into my eyes.
"We will discuss that at the headmaster’s office."
I just nodded my head.
"You think cutting off the arms of fellow students and committing the sa brutality against the vice-president isn’t a cri, huh?!"
An enraged shout made all of us turn our attention to Victoria—or to the guy standing beside her.
"Kevin—"
"You are just vile scum, who deserves to be put in his place."
Kevin took a step in my direction, his eyes red with the anger that he felt towards .
"Put in place, huh. So who is going to do the honours? You, or her?"
I pointed towards Victoria, who stood behind Kevin, her body supported by Diana and Alicia on both sides.
"Bastard—"
"Student Kevin, maintain the decorum of the academy. This isn’t a place for your disputes."
Elsa silenced Kevin in polite words.
Though I was with Kevin on the issue.
"Let him speak... after all— that is the only thing he can do."
Hearing my words, all heads turned towards once again, as I stepped forward, my hands in my pockets.
Kevin’s face twisted, as he pulled out a sword from his storage in a fluid motion.
"How about I show you... what I can do?"
Silence.
"Student Kael, head to the office, and Sir Zenur, please—"
Swoosh!
Bam!
Thud.
