88 Chapter 88: unread letter
It was nighttime and everyone was settling into their new school. A lot of things changed as soon as they got to the school. The boys had their one separate dorm building. While the girls also have their dorm building. Both buildings stood opposite each other and on top of the buildings were flattened roofs where the students could stay and watch the whole city.
After Kevin was done moving his few clothes to the new dorm room, he went to the roof to have a view of the City. There are other students with him, but they were only boys. Females weren’t allowed to come to the boy’s dorm room and males aren’t allowed to go to the female’s dorm room unlike before.
Another different thing was that the Newbie students and the mage soldiers students were in the same dorm room, but each was now classified as Class A, B, and C.
Class A renamed for newbies like Kevin, while the mage soldiers were renamed to Class B, and the pure mage and spell wizard students were now renamed Class C.
It was also announced that three stages of tests will be held for all classes in the next few weeks to determine those who would be going to the Human World.
Kevin’s wife, especially Lexa, was being interrogated by the teachers on how she was able to learn two Magics. It was sure that those two will be taken to the human world even if they don’t pass the tests. They had famous and affluent parents and with the two Magics they had, which was rare, they would very much choose them as the first candidates.
Unlike Kevin who has no affluent parents. At least to his idea.
He stood by the roof of the dorm building as he stared at the beautiful city with electricity on every corner of the city. Although it was getting cold as it was the first snowfall, most of the students are outside watching as the white snows fall from the sky. It was a lovely sight to behold.
Far from where the other students stood, having fun with each other, Kevin was reading from the two letters that were in his hands. He wanted to check out the system messages but he had something he needed to check out first.
.....
He saw a letter in the pocket of his uniform while he was arranging his stuff and it stated that it was sent from Lina who was Lexa’s sister.
Kevin recalled the day that Lina put the letter in his pockets but he never read it since that day.
He opened the envelope and the letter read thus;
“I know this may seem crazy but it’s not. I heard about your story from my teacher who was a wizard. He raised you as his son while in the forest, but he’s not your real father, it was all complicated. But if you happen to read this letter and need more explanation, you can come over to my office, I’ll help you bring the wizard to my office. And, sorry about the Charm I used on you back then. I was out of my mind for a while. So, I’ll be waiting. When you’re ready, you can come to meet, you deserve to know the truth.”
And thus the words of the letter ended. Kevin sighed softly as he opened it to read the second letter. The date was written signifying that it was sent to him today.
“Hi, Kev. I’m so sorry I’m just messaging you now. I need to tell you the truth about your parents before you leave for the human World. Meet me at Lina’s new office if you get the letter. I’ll be waiting.”
The letter ended but Kevin had a deep frown on his face. “Who said I wanted to go to the human world.” he grinned as he tore the letters into pieces.
He panted heavily as he thought about the words of the letter. Although he had torn the letter, the words were still ringing in his mind.
While he was thinking about the details of the letter, he noticed that the system was silent and didn’t say anything. He wondered why he was silent so he decided to ask the system questions and obtain a quick answer from him, instead of meeting with the Wizard.
He does not understand why he didn’t feel like meeting with the wizard. It was probably because he was ashamed of himself after running away from his home in the forest and for stealing the Wizard’s gemstones.
He had thoughts that this might be a setup to drag him back to the forest only to be scorned or punished afterward. But something reminded him that he had a system and two magics, he should be able to defend himself from any beating if it comes to that.
“System, you once said you know something about my parents, what are they like? I’m not saying you should tell me everything about them, just tell me a few things you know about them.” Kevin demanded.
“Kevin, I don’t think that will be possible. You’re on your way to meet someone who offered to tell you about your parents. I’m sorry but I can’t tell you anything for now. Not after you meet the wizard and listen to whatever he wants to tell you.” The system said frankly.
“Okay, whatever.” He replied as he finally decided to meet the wizard. As planned, if anything bad was to happen, or it was a setup to take him back to the forest, he would have to fight and defend himself at all costs.
With his breath held in, Kevin finally left for Lina’s office. But on his way to the office, coincidence made him meet Lexa on the way.
“Hey Husby, where are you going?” Lexa suddenly appeared in front of Kevin. It was unexpected and sudden that Kevin had jumped a few steps backward.
“Lexa, what are you doing out here..” He asked but then he remembered that the girls had become famous overnight and were now a celebrity. He immediately changed his question. “I mean, did they just release you?”
“My sister and I had some issues so, we just sorted everything out. But she couldn’t believe the fact that I was able to learn two abilities. Here, I got the singlet you asked for and, also, Jeri got the Triling book for you. Ta-da!”
“Where’s she?” He asked.
“She said she’s a kind of busy ’cause she have some matters to take care of tonight. So she gave me the book as a completion of her Quest.”
Lexa presented a huge book to Kevin. It was large and heavy and it had on the front page, written; The Hero of all Magical and non-Magical creatures.
“Wow, what a big book it is,” Kevin commented as he received the book from Lexa and glanced at its pages.
“How was Jeri able to get the book?” Kevin asked.
“Shhhh,” Lexa said as she whispered into Kevin’s ears. “I helped Jeri out. The Triling book that they had was given to my sister for keeping, so I stole it from my sister, Lina. She didn’t know and would kill me if she knows.”
“Do you like the singlet?” Lexa asked and Kevin took a look at the singlet that was in his hands.
“Not bad.”
“I had to complete the quests you gave me since you needed the singlet badly. I risked my life to get the Singlet for you.”
Kevin smiled amusingly.
“What?” Lexa asked. “Is it funny?”
Kevin placed his right hand on Lexa’s shoulder and brought his face near hers.
“Are you sure you completed the Quest because I said I wanted the singlet badly?” he asked teasingly.
“Why are you asking? Why else would I have completed the Quest if it wasn’t because I wanted to help you.”
“Hmm.” Kevin shook his head slightly and pouted his mouth forward before sucking it in. “What if you did it because of the rewards I promised you? I know you want us to continue from where we stopped.”
Lexa’s eyes fluttered widely as she heard Kevin’s words. Each of his words was hitting her like a falling rain and no matter what she did, she couldn’t dodge it.
She instantly blushed as she thought about herself kissing Kevin once again. She held onto her cheeks to hide the redness away from Kevin.
‘Shit, he’s so hot. But why do I keep on blushing? Come on Lexa get a hold of yourself. Think about something you hate... Like my sister.’ Lexa said within her. After her blushing cooled down a bit, she faced Kevin who was now glancing through the pages of the Triling book. He noticed that some parts of the book were blank.
“Why are these pages blank?” He asked.
“That’s how it has been. I think that’s where the story ended.”
Although Lexa concluded that it was the end of the story, Kevin had a feeling that there are words written on the blank pages that aren’t visible to the public or just anyone. He used his spiritual eyes but still, but he still wasn’t able to see anything.
“Well, I guess I’ll be checking it out later,” Kevin said as he closed the book and kept it by his armpit.
“So, where are you going?” The fairy girl asked.
Kevin stuttered before answering. He was not sure if telling her was Okay. But since she was his wife and the only person he trusted the most at the moment, he had to tell her.
“I received a letter from someone saying he wanted to meet at your sister’s office. I’m on my way to the office till I met you. I think I should get going now.”
“What??”
