At the same time, Flora and Lovelia slammed open the door.
"Vice Principal. Nathan... Nathan..." Flora panted a few times.
"What happened to Nathan? Is he harassing someone?" Vivian asked. Considering Nathan's usual behavior, it wasn't weird for her to think that way.
"Nathan is kidnapped!"
Vivian's heart sank. "What did you say?!"
"Nathan is kidnapped. Selena has just informed us and is currently investigating the crime scene with Noelle. I have sent others to inform the teachers."
Vivian's body trembled as her face darkened.
The ground started to shake as the room vibrated violently. The shelves fell down and dropped everything inside.
"!!!" Flora hurriedly released her own Ena and stood in front of Lovelia.
In that instant, a burst of Ena erupted from Vivian's body.
"Kh!" Flora gnashed her teeth and felt the pressure from her Ena.
"What is this?" Lovelia started gasping for air.
It wasn't only her. The students near the location couldn't help but fall to their knees. Foam started leaking out of their mouth for some.
"Gaaaahhh!"
"What is going on?"
"Whose Ena is this? It's so enormous!"
The people were gasping for air, almost passing out.
The amount of Ena coming out of Vivian's body made the air tremble. Some windows started to crack. It was as if there was an apocalypse within the school, if not for one person.
Even the teachers reacted one step too late since they felt suppressed by this amount of Ena.
The one coming was none other than the principal. He instantly dispelled her Ena and shouted, "Vivian! What are you doing?!"
The students fell to the floor, trying to regain their composure. They were looking around, trying to figure out what had happened.
Even Flora almost fell to her knees. Her back was drenched as her body was shaking.
She was staring at Vivian with a wry smile on her face. 'So, this is the Forest Queen Vivian.'
If not for Flora, Lovelia would have also fallen.
"Yes. If I were them, I would plant the spy inside the student council. After all, that place allows them to oversee everything within the academy."
Nathan was probably not ruthless enough to use even a normal prisoner to carry out such a thing. Still, a young death-row inmate was quite rare.
Even then, Vivian said, "Alright. I will take care of it. I will also help you convince Flora. If I promise her I'll take the blame if something goes wrong, she will accept the plan."
"Are you sure?"
"You are my student. If I can't stand up for you, then I'd rather lie down in a coffin." Vivian snorted.
"Master..." Nathan smiled.
"Well, what's going to happen after that?"
"I will take care of the rest." Nathan smiled. "Besides, since the student council will be in the center of the storm, I will let them solve it as well, which will boost their reputation later."
Vivian sighed. "Alright."
Vivian started regretting her decision. She shouldn't have accepted it in the first place. No, Nathan might have predicted this would happen. That was why he refused to tell her back then.
When the principal and Flora heard it, they couldn't help but drop their jaws.
"The one causing all this was him?" Flora couldn't believe that she had been playing in someone's hand this whole time. And to think it was a guy two years younger than him.
The principal clicked his tongue. As expected, his evaluation of Nathan being a devil wasn't wrong.
"So, the student council will take care of the problem, but how?" the principal asked.
Just like Selena and Sera, a familiar was dispatched to them right after everything happened. Even Nathan considered the possibility of him being moved far away so his familiar would disappear. That was why he dispatched them before everything happened.
"I'll be leading you guys to him!" Fenrir suddenly entered the room.
"!!!" All eyes shifted to Fenrir.
The first one to react was Vivian. She grabbed Fenrir's body while asking in anger, "Why did he put himself in danger? Did you, familiars, not stop him at all?!"
Fenrir obviously knew this would be her reaction, since they had the same reaction. He simply patted Vivian's shoulder and said with a tired voice, "Get used to this."
"You damned disciple!"
...
Meanwhile, Nathan had just woken up. His body was being tied in a chair with the same material as the one the sand bandit used to lock him up. His Ena was unusable.
"It seems you are awake."
Nathan raised his head and smiled wryly. "As expected, you are the spy hidden inside the academy... Vice President Axel."
