In the dark hallway, Elesa was walking behind the guards group thinking about the mysterious thing she just witnessed.
Elesa: (just what the hell was that? I've never seen that type of magic before, I was just going to investigate for my master but now after mocking me and making me look like a weak loser it's something personal).
Sometime has passed and the group reached a huge room with many doors leading to other corridors.
But what really got Elesa's attention was the Ceiling, it was Transparent and exactly under the main building of the academy.
Elesa looks at the ceiling with disbelief in her eyes, she never saw anything like that before.
Elesa: (what on earth is this place?! First the unknown magic and now this! It seems like the consul is hiding something that will surpass my master's expectations).
The guards group keep going in one of the corridors, with no other choices Elesa keeps up with them until she finds a way to move alone in this place.
Elesa: (I need to stay close to this group until I find a way to walk freely around here).
After a while, the group reached a room when the guards entered it, it appears to be a cheap bar and there seems to be a lot of bedrooms around it.
Elesa: (a bar? Is here where all the guards rest? Well if they stopped here that means I can go and investigate this place).
Just when she was about to leave the bar a guard stop her.
Guard: wait you, I didn't see you around here before.
Elesa turns to face the guard and the hat of her uniform cover her eyes.
With a gentle smile on her face she began to speak in a polite voice.
Elesa: oh I'm one of the Newcomers, I followed you guys here because I lost my way.
The guard steps closer to Elesa and he doesn't seem to believe her.
Guard: Newcomers huh? And what's your name then?
Elesa: my name is Elesa.
Elesa extended her hand forward to shake hands with the guard.
The guard hesitates for a moment but he shakes hands with Elesa.
Elesa: (heh, dumbass human).
Just when their hands touched the guards eyes glow with a crimson light for a second, the guard suddenly gives her a room key and a simple map of this place, it seemed like the guard was brainwashed.
Guard: oh right I remember you now, here, this key is for a room here and take this, it's a simple map since you're a newcomer you'll need it to know your way around here.
A sly smile spread across her face as she raised an eyebrow.
Elesa: (hehehe, that was easy, washing this dumb man brain is like taking Candy from a baby).
Elesa heads to her room, expecting something a little better than the bar.
Before She opens the door she starts wishing for a good bed since she can't use her arcane arts to see through the walls in this place.
Elesa: (please I'm not asking for too much, just a comfortable bed, I don't care about anything else).
But reality had something else to say.
Inside the room was what seems like a prison bed, the walls are made from wood Therefore, there is a lot of mold on its edges.
All that and the fact that the room is too small it barely fit one person inside it, made Elesa collapse.
Elesa: I wanna go home *sniff... sniff...*
[At the same time]
In his room, John looks through his window and he see a guard outside the Student dormitory.
He's sure that Elesa successfully made her way inside the consul.
John: no signs that they have captured an infiltrator in their forces, It seems her disguise was successful, alright since everything is going well on Elesa's side I think I'll go investigate The cemetery where minsium was buried, *yawn* but first I need to get some sleep.
[Next day at the noon]
John walks normally in the hallway but he knows the stalker student is following him.
Stalker: (huh? Strange he doesn't have his cat on his shoulder today)
John: (heh, he took the bait).
As he walks, John suddenly enters the mens bathroom.
The stalker student saw that and decided to wait outside the bathroom.
Inside the bathroom, the Ventilation window at the top of the wall seems to be opened from the inside.
Outside the building while using his arcane arts To hide himself, John's running to the Academic boundaries, between the woods John reaches The wall surrounding the academy, while Sprinting, he jumps high above the wall landing on the other side of it continuing his way to the cargo village Cemetery because he doesn't have much time.
John: (I don't have much time before that stalker starts to get suspicious).
[At the same time]
Elesa is walking through the Corridors following the Map instructions.
Elesa: (the map says it should be around here).
Later on, Elesa found herself in front of a metal door, she tries to open it but it's locked.
Elesa: (huh Locked, I should've excepted that, but after all it's still a door and I still have some tricks).
Elesa took a look at both sides of the corridor, making sure no one's around, then all of a sudden, Elesa turns into a black mist And enters from under the door.
When she returns into her human form, she took a look at the metal door over her shoulder, mocking it.
Elesa: heh, a metal door won't be enough to stop the almighty demon queen Elesa doksain, now let's see the important thing about this . . . Room.
Just when Elesa took a clear look at the room she entered, she now knows Why this room is marked as important on the map, the room she entered was a library, but instead of books all the shelves are filled with files.
Elesa had one thing to say.
Elesa: *sigh* Damn it.
[in the meantime]
John has already reached cargo village, while he walks in the streets, the Village residents couldn't help but stare at the young man from Victoria Academy.
John: (it seems like everyone in the street is looking at me, no wonder, after all they keep hearing about the students of Victoria Academy but they actually only witnessed two students, or should I say one)
[Flashback]
John: (back when I was Leon I didn't have a horse or a ride to drop me off at the Academy so my only choice was walking all the way from my village to the Academy on foot, and back then I came across cargo village, it was the first time they saw a student from that place, coming back here is bringing some memories even more than the Academy itself, I believe it was almost two years ago when I first stepped foot in the academy, from the first day for me as Leon I knew what's going to happen, every single one of them starts making fun of me, especially minsium, even with all that I decided to keep my mouth shut for the sake of my family, the only place where I could get some peace was the library, but being quiet through all my years in the academy wasn't my plan, after spending a long time in the library, learning and memorizing every book in it, I was able to build my intelligence, I even reached a point where I can be equal to the academy scholars).
[End of the flashback]
John:(in my original plan I was going to graduate from Victoria Academy then I'll enroll in the military academy "Fortis Vanguard Academy", in ASTREVAL there's two academies, "Victoria Academy" a place build for the high class of society, basically it's a place where the noble can send their children to, in the other hand "Fortis Vanguard Academy" have been build For the rest of the classes of society, in other words, those who can't see a future for themselves goes to the military academy to protect this kingdom, the only reason why I was going to Fortis Vanguard Academy is to increase my strength and all that would've took 7-9 years, probably 6 if I summoned something average like a lava lizard, or a snow eagle, but being able to summon the demon queen was something unexpected not only that but I also learned the arcane arts, with all that it only took me one year of hard work, If I didn't summon Elesa, would things go smoothly without her? . . . No there's no point thinking of "what If" what happened has happened, I need to focus on my revenge and the future Obstacles).
Lost in the memory and thoughts John finally reached the cemetery.
Inside the cemetery John starts looking for minsium's name, and after a while of searching, he found it.
John used his arcane arts to see under the ground to minsium's Dead body.
John: (I can see a Dead body but This is not enough to satisfy me, I need to dig and see it).
Just then someone pointed a sword on John's back, the stranger start to speak in angry tongue.
???: hold it right there Tomb raider.
John took a look at the man behind him with the corner of his eye, he found an old man with one leg and a wooden crutch pointing an old sword at him, John tries to calm down the old man avoiding any unwanted attention.
John: I'm sorry my good sir, but I think you're mistaken me for some sort of thief, I'm not here to steal anything.
The old man doesn't seem to believe that.
Old man: that's what a Tomb raider would say, and beside people like you is the reason why I ended up like this, the last time I hesitated like the last year, i lost my leg and now I'll be sure to not make the same mistake again.
John: ("last year" don't tell me that the rumor is true) wait look at my clothes is there any Tomb raider would Rob a grave with these clothes?
Old man: hmmmm.
John: and also if I wanted to rob a cemetery I would've done it in the middle of the night not in the sunlight in front of everyone.
The old man hesitates for a moment before removing his blade from John back.
Old man: hmmm, you have a good point kid I'll give you that, now answer me what is one of Victoria Academy's folks doing in my cemetery? I'm sure there is no one noble under this ground, unless you're here for that teacher?
John: well you're not wrong about that, I'm indeed here for that teacher, but I'm not here to steal anything from his grave I just want to check on something, it's very important for me so please let me dig into his grave.
The old man closes his eyes for a bit then he turns and walks into the hut besides the cemetery.
John: (does that mean I can dig into minsium's grave?).
Just then the old man returns and he carries two shovels, he throws one of them to John.
Old man: you better move your butt kid because I'm not as young as I used to be.
John: hehe, understood.
[At the same time]
In the Academy, outside of the mens bathroom, the stalker student noticed that John took a long time in the bathroom.
Stalker: what is he doing there? I should take a look.
The stalker enters the bathroom, in total there are Four toilets three are empty and one in use, the stalker knocked on the toilet door in use.
Stalker: *knocking* is there anyone inside?
Student: huh? Someone is in here, man.
Stalker: (wait that's not him, and the other toilets are empty so where the hell did he go?).
Just then the stalker's eyes catch a glimpse of the ventilation window.
Stalker: (don't tell me he actually jumped outside the building from there? I must tell the guards about that).
The stalker hurries up and goes to tell the guards about John.
[At the same time]
In a short time John was able to dig minsium's grave, even the old man seems surprised because he didn't have to do anything.
Old man: damn son what in the world did they teach you in that place?
John seems a little worried to answer that.
John: (If I told him that I didn't get stronger from studying with the rest of the students he will think that I'm some sort of Serial killer).
Just then, John's shovel hits the wooden coffin, now John is ready to uncover the truth about minsium's death, he took a deep breath.
John: (this is the moment, the truth about the man I hate is inside this coffin *sniffling**Exhaling*).
When he opens the coffin A big smile spread across his face and some veins appear on his neck and some parts of his face, his eyes are glowing red from the thing he just saw.
John: (minsium you little shit).
The old man couldn't help but noticing how is John getting angry.
Old man: HEY kid are you okay?
John: oh, sorry about that, I'm fine now.
Realizing how his rage was about to get out of control, John calms himself.
The old man offers to put the dirt back in its place himself.
Old man: hey kid get back to the academy, you probably have class or something, I'll take care of things here.
John: are you sure? You only have one leg.
Old man: I use the shovel with my hands not my feet kid, and besides,I've been doing this from before you were born, now go.
John: thank you good sir.
John gets out from the grave hole and leaves the cemetery.
The old man couldn't help but think of how this Dead body inside the coffin was able to make this young man get to that level of rage.
Old man: (just what kind of things a Dead body can do to make someone in complete rage *sigh* I really need to return this dirt to it place).
Sprinting across the village John has two reasons to go this fast, the first one is to return to the mens bathroom before the stalker discover him, and the second one is to get rid of the rage, now there's one thing on his mind.
John: (minsium *pant* Minsium *pant*
MINSIUM).
