Chapter 365 Tension Everywhere

After being informed about their academic exploration being canceled many of the students could be seen frowning, many of them felt it wasn't right for the teachers to suddenly cancel what had been planned all of a sudden, some of those who had been looking forward to the exploration had large frowns on their faces, especially for the low-rank students who were really excited about it.

This was a lifetime opportunity especially if they could get their hands on a strong magical beast at that point even if they wouldn't be recognized as strong symbiote users they would still be above the average circles of powerful individuals if they could get their hands on a powerful beast weapon.

However, for the ones who were either strong or had powerful families, many of them had begun to understand that the academy didn't canceled the exploration simply because they wanted to, after all, it was unlike the academy they knew, what could make the place where survival of the fittest was the rule cancel an entire first years exploration? It wasn't because they wanted to, rather they had no choice.

When many of them realized this, they couldn't help but turn their attention to the two students who had suddenly gone missing out of the blue, it was needless to say it had something to do with them, while they had no idea how much the students influenced what happened they were sure it must be head aching for the academy.

However, not many of them cared they were rather simply curious about the reason why, even though most of them had guesses no one bothered to ask about the reason why, although it was not made noticeable the academy had suddenly become more tense than it was before, even the teachers and staffs had solemn expressions on their faces when the passed by, it was as if an unknown storm was secretly brewing inside the academy.

Even though the teachers wanted to act as though they weren't bothered or nothing was happening they couldn't, considering their current situation especially when it had to do with three aboriginals, if they were not careful the academy could be wiped out of existence for good, it was not like it was impossible or like it hadn't been done before, the last time they did such things it was even the destroyed academy heads who were on their knees begging to be spared.

Not only did the teachers not want to reveal anything, but they also had no choice but to seal their mouths shut, until the situation had been resolved every staff and teacher had taken an oath not to reveal or say anything, and anyone found doing so would be heavily punished.

Emelia after hearing what Ryan said couldn't help but become surprised and looked at him, wondering if he was just joking but then she could see he didn't seem to be joking or even had the usual expression when he was doing so, Ryan let out a nervous laugh as he looked at both Emelia and Sonia.

If he was, to be honest, he didn't expect things to escalate to such an extent, of course, he knew he had been threatened and had no choice especially when he found out that the second years were behind the death of Timothy storm, but at the same time, he also knew he was selfish as well, and that was the more reason they were able to get to him very quickly not only was he a victim of bully but it was due to he was weak minded as well.

They didn't just stop at that, not only did they take Bernard hostage they also took the girls as well making him have no other choice but to accept their second proposal, even though he had been hell-bent on not wanting to do anything to do with them, he had still been caught up with the storm at the end.

Although even till now he hadn't been informed about what the second proposal was, he was sure they were planning something very dangerous and seeing both how Bernard and Sophia suddenly went missing he couldn't help but be worried because he knew they were likely the only group of people who could be behind it.

This was why even though he didn't want to, he could only come out of his shell to reveal the truth at this point, after all, it could prove to be very useful information against the second years to help both Bernard and Sophia.

Bernard wasn't only his friend but he was also his whole family as well, his whole life had been filled with bullies, and Bernard was the only person who understood him very much, they were a victim of the same circumstances, but he was not strong-willed like Bernard compared to him, the bullies only got to him more and more until eventually, it broke him down unknowingly to himself, it was after he did what he had done and listening to the old man Quzin that he realized all these more.

At first, he thought he had been doing the right thing by accepting their proposal since if he joined them they could make him as strong as they were, however, only now did he discover it was all a lie just like Timothy Storm, they would use and then kill him when he was no longer useful to them or their purpose.

Emelia seeing the situation in front of her didn't know what to do, she didn't want to appear overly aggressive by start questioning him so she tried to calm herself down, especially since he had decided to come out himself it would be wrong on all levels to start interrogating him as if he was some criminal.

However, at the same time, she couldn't help but look at Sonia, even though she seem like she hadn't been listening to the whole thing the entire time but she was sure Sonia had heard what Ryan said but had decided to keep quiet, at this moment she was contemplating whether she should include Sonia or not, although they were now in the same team that didn't mean she was exactly their friend or acquaintance, so she didn't know what to say at this point, nevertheless she took in a deep breath and opened her mouth.
