“We should head back down!”
“What if they need our help! You know that the prefect is too powerful”
“Surely he can’t handle him on his own” I said
“Huh? What do you mean by, he?”
“You know Alice is a girl right? Didn’t you just see her earlier?” Darryl Lyn rudely said
LOL if only you knew what I saw. She looks totally badass in that full body armor of hers. I personally thought he’s a he.
“Regardless of what gender she has surely she still needs our help”
“Sr. Draco won’t just let her slide that easy” I said
“But we don’t have the capabilities or guts to handle a situation like this. That’s why the Trinity especially the prefect handle things like this”
“Plus I am not willing to bet my life for someone that is not close or related to me”
“If you want you can go ahead just don’t drag me into this” Cherry Lyn
“I get where all of these coming from and I respect your decision and you can stay here but if ever you change your mind I’ll be downstairs waiting for you okay” I said then I immediately run downstairs
“Aren’t you tagging along sis? I know you want to and it’s fine don’t mind me”
“I’ll just wait for you here” Cherry Lyn said
“I would love too but you know our condition right? Plus Ramon can do this on his own I can tell by his eyes. Determination is overflowing within them and I see no fear”
“If anyone can do it he can, let’s trust wait for him to comeback” Darryl Lyn said as she holds her sister’s hands

“Where you goin Master? Do you think that simple attack can match my spirit art Yna” Alice said as the fire spirits where all cut in half
“So you’ve finally unlock your spirit art but sad to say you won’t use it anymore”
“Phoenix Burst” Draco said then a burning birds came out of his gate which I saw with my own two eyes
I personally thought Phoenixes are just a story that the folks tell children so they won’t roam around late at night. But seeing one this close is a different story. I pull out my phone and take a picture. It was epic and at the same time majestic. Now back to the task at hand
The fire spirits vanished one by one and Alice emerged out of the swarm. Using a cool looking sword she slices her way through. I just stand and watch as she takes control of the entire situation.
“You know Master for someone who is part of the Trinity you’re getting kinda rusty”
“How about I show you how sharp my spirit art is” Alice said then she unleashes a wave of vertical surge of spirit magic directly at Draco
Draco uses his wings to block the attack but the surge manage to slice his wings but it is not that grievous but enough to spill blood out
“Spirit Guard” Draco reacted
“Oh dear oh dear. I never thought a golem could use such a refine spirit art or it is better to call it spirit guard”
“Tell me how long have you unlocked such powers?” Draco ask
“Huh? Unlocked? I am only borrowing it” Alice said then she charges in. Draco is not aware that his opponent wields a one handed sword. I was about to help but something is bothering me. I have this strange feeling that I am being watched. I was completely spaced out as I looked over the entire room maybe my eyes could pinpoint the stalker’s location. Then I notice Gyson and Alexandra lying on the floor as if they were sleeping.
“Why are they not moving away”
“Don’t they know that there’s a battle beside them” a thought inside my head
Alice and Draco are closing in the two but they are still not moving. Looks like my time has come. I quickly run towards Gyson and Alexandra and pull them out of the battlefield but Gyson is too heavy. I can’t pull him using one hand and it would be too risky to pull him with two hands because I will leave Alexandra behind
“That’s enough Alice. I think Sir Draco had enough” the person behind the hoodie said
Her voice is awfully familiar. Then Draco reacted
“Ms. De Villa how on earth did you manage to break my seal”
“I knew it. That’s why her voice is so familiar” a thought inside my head
Margaret removes her hoodie and stares at Draco. Her eyes are filled with hatred and suffering. Her yellow eyes radiate an aura enough to make Draco’s knees shake. I can’t help noticing this mark on her forehead, It looks the same as mine.
“What are you waiting for. Get a move on!” Margaret ordered me like she’s in a hurry
I immediately drag Gyson near the staircase then Alexandra
“I would find a more hiding spot if I were you”
“Things will become more messy” Margaret said with a serious look on her face
I rushed upstairs and asked the nearby men if they could help me carry Gyson and Alexandra upstairs but they were too afraid to follow.
“Pathetic, show some backbone!” Cherry Lyn said
“Are you going to help him out or not!” Darryl Lyn impose fear at them using her eyes
The men were all left with no choice but to obey. We quickly went downstairs and hoist Gyson and Alexandra up
“Is there anyone capable of removing curses here?” I ask
Then someone approaches us. An odd looking lady with a super pale skin tone. She places her hands on Gyson and Alexandra then closes her eyes. After that she just walks away without saying a word. She didn’t even look back
“Who was that?” I ask the twins
“Who?” the twins reacted
“The student that approached us earlier”
“She said she’ll try mo remove the curse” I said
“Huh? But no one approach you or the Trinity” Cherry Lyn said
“Yeah you’re maybe just seeing things” Darryl Lyn said
I wipe my face as I think this through. Surely there is an explanation for all of this. Maybe that girl is a spirit and only I can see her. Is that spirit magic? But compared to the one that the others are using she looks real as if she’s a person.
“Hey. can you please watch over them for me. I’ll just freshen up a bit maybe this tension is messing up my head” I said
I quickly went on my way without waiting for the twins’ answer. I look at everyone’s faces one by one but I haven’t had any luck finding her. Surely she hasn’t gone too far. I continue my search all across the end of the hall but still no luck. If only I knew her name or any identification this would be much easier. I slam the wall to let all my frustrations out then said
“Please give me a sign, who is she?” I said it out loud
Then someone approach me and taps my shoulder and ask
“Are you okay? You sounded kinda off” Her voice is so sweet which manage to calm me down
I turn around and my jaw drops the moment my eyes laid on her. It was her the girl that I was looking for. I quickly gather my thoughts and start a conversation.
“Did I say it out loud?” I ask as I scratch the back of my head. She gives me a nod with a weird look on her face
“How do I put this?” I said as I look up the ceiling and think of the best way to say that I am looking for her without saying I am looking for her
“You’re from the girl earlier right?”
“What did you do back there? You just immediately vanish after, why so?” I ask
“I thought you were looking for someone to uplift the curse?”
“I see that you are struggling earlier so even if it’s against my will I helped you”
“I can’t really stand a look of people who desperately need help” She said
“How sweet, by the way if you don’t mind me asking. What’s your name though?” I ask
She then just walks into a room and evades my question. It feels like she doesn’t want to interact with me. Maybe she’s afraid of my eyes? My status? I deactivated my eyes and took a peek inside the room but it was totally empty.
“Where did she go? I know I saw her enter this very room. Do I have an illness or something” a thought inside my head as I check my forehead for a fever
“Ramon!, Ramon!” one of the twins shouted as they came looking. I immediately head back but I keep my eyes inside the classroom until I step out and close the door
