-Spurt!
"M-my lord!"
Splurting black blood on the ground, inside a dimly lit room, a figure clenched his heart.
A black silhouette appeared next to Patrich who had just splurted black blood on the ground and hastily helped him sit on his throne.
Though his breath was weak, his presence remained majestic as the servant did not dare utter a single word.
Gripping the armrest of his throne, the patriarch whose figure was now incomparably pale said
"He failed..."
-Crack! -Crack!
Tightening his grip on the armrest, cracks started appearing on the throne as a red glow started emanating from the patriarch's figure.
"...Fortunately because he was much weaker than me, his death has only cost me a small internal injury"
Hearing what the Patriarch had said, the servant worriedly asked
"How long do you need to recuperate?"
"I should be healed in about six months..."
Turning his head to the servant that was next to him, he coldly ordered
"Get someone to send me all of the information regarding the incident that Samuel was responsible for"
"Yes My Lord"
Nodding his head, the servant disappeared into the darkness
As soon as he disappeared the red hue around the matriarch increased many folds enveloping the whole room.
"Once I find out who was responsible for killing my pawn..."
-BOOM!
The throne behind the patriarch suddenly pulverized as he stood up. With a distorted face and eyes that were dyed red in rage, he slowly spat
"...I will personally make sure they suffer a pain worse than death!"
...
The next morning, Nova Academy is full of reporters. They are here for the press conference that Nova Academy held.
"How can Nova Academy, which is said to be the number one in the whole continent, Allow this incident to happen?"
"Is Student Safety in danger?"
"Samue Ascal student of [3-Hero-3] was the fallen human. How Can Nova Academy let Fallen Human enter the Academy?"
"There were Ten, First-year Hero Class students who got severely injured, what will the Academy plan to do with them?"
"Isabella Evergreen, Princess Of Evergreen clan and daughter of Dreack Evergreen, The Supreme Mageus of all mages also fought to defend the lives of students, what are the comments of the HeadMaster on that?
"Is it true that Final Hit came from Lucas Darkhart Of class [1-Hero-1]?
One of the instructors of [ Astronomy Department ] asked a question.
"But Headmaster won't world gov-"
"I don't give a fuck about the world government."
Before he could finish it, Hera cursed. all the instructors were in shock, The Headmaster they knew always had a kind demeanour they also never heard her saying any curse.
And here she just curses at the World Government...
It's mean she is very pissed at the moment.
"I will tell him, Headmaster."
"Good." Saying that she left for her office, leaving others standing there.

Isabella's consciousness was awakened by a dazzling light coming through her eyelids, stimulating her pupils
Waking up in a large spacious room, Isabella blankly stared at the familiar ceiling she had been seeing for the past month. Lightly lifting her head, Isabella stared at her room.
The room was large, and beside her, there was a massive bookshelf of magic and herbs filled to the brim with books. A large desk stood in the right corner of the room. On it, a white desk lamp sat on the right corner of the desk with books neatly piled around it.
The room had a nice woody, tranquil feeling around it that could calm anyone who was in it. The sunlight directly entered the room from the large windows around the room, brightening the surroundings. Before entering the academy, because of her outstanding results, she was asked by the academy how she wanted to design the room and this was the outcome.
The tranquillity and silence in the room calmed her mind.
"...ugh!"
Touching her head, she felt a strong headache whenever she tried remembering what had happened the night prior. It felt as if her head was being split into two.
The last thing she remembered was seeing two emotionless eyes staring at her.
Recalling Lucas who was responsible for killing Samuel. Isabella's head was filled with questions.
She is thankful for what he did for her but how did he know that she was going to be targeted by Samuel?
Also, he was not shocked after seeing Samuel's demon form.
That must mean he was already aware of it.
Although she had never paid much attention to him, she thought he was crazy as they met first day of the Academy. And after that, he became her teammate.
Now he was in her team she started to observe him from time to time. Because he tended to do weird things, she more or less had an impression of him.
In both crew and classes, he looked like someone sloppy. He cared for no one around him and always seemed to be bored in class. Especially in the crew where he would forcefully try to pay attention to the lecture, though it always ended with him making strange faces.
...However, after the happenings in the Forest, her previous impression of him had completely shattered.
She thought he abandoned her and ran away at first when Samuel attacked her but not only that he come for her but he even defended her. He fights with all the student who is under the control of Samuel's ability.
she couldn't help but want to find out more about him.
Bam!
Snapping Isabella out of her thoughts was the sound of the door opening as two stunning girls accompanied by two extremely handsome boys entered the room.
Rushing next to Isabella, Emma worriedly looked at her as she patted her body all over to make sure she was okay.
