Chapter 30: Just a Mere Disturbance
The renovated canteen remained the same as the previous one, still the same structure and design. The only difference was that the securities became tighter, and the people who can enter it had lessened. It looked like the school didn't want to have a crowded canteen and a stampede again in case of emergencies like before.
The tables that were lined up into rows previously became circular that was surrounded by chairs. At a table, Lucas sat there, facing the Headmaster Nova. He didn't know what was his plans, but right now, their aims started to unite into a single goal: to save Doll.
At his side was Moon that was not in a mood to listen to the plans they were talking to; with Ghaile and Winter accompanying them with their plan-making since they were worried about Doll; the Headmaster wanted to have Winter with them since he trusted her.
Their search party was comp
Chapter 31: Escaping the Sky PrisonMister Vacio was standing at the floor beyond the room Doll was tied up to. The passage to that chamber was left opened, as he eyed the helpless Doll laying on the floor full of ashes. He was leaving her already.Doll stared at him as if wondering. The things that he said… What was that? CorpseBoy? What the actual crap was happening? What was Vacio planning?"Wait!" she exclaimed, thus making Vacio looked over her.She had thought of a plan to break free. Now that the chair wasn't intacted anymore with the floor, she can walk over but she has to keep it with herself. She knew this Vacio had some boneheadedness in him. If she perform her plan the way she yearned it to be, things will come off well."I want to leave. Please release me." she ordered with a calm voice, as if making Vacio soft with her pleading. "I have to go to the bathroom."She made her eyes somehow like a puppy, and begged again, gawking at Mister Vacio.Vacio stared at him in noncha
Chapter 32: Aforementioned BlazeLucas looked over the voice from above. As he reared from the ground floor of the thin building before them, he saw a familiar face as he continued rearing through the middle of the structure. It was Mister Vacio, reeling at the middle of the sky prison.His face was twisted in pain and Lucas was unaware what had happened to him; also, he has no interest on knowing it. What ignited his anger was this man's presence. He was here again, right before his eyes."I swear vengeance on you, Lucas, and I will show you my true goal: one that was pure evil!" Mister Vacio shouted from above, still continuing his rally.He stared at his helpless face. That face was so irritating as always. But it excited him that he can use his powers this time in a combat that he will be useful. At any time, he was ready to fight this sucking man."I will take responsibility for this…" Lucas vocalized to his team, blocking their ways as he stood. "Get Doll back to his father! Lea
Chapter 33: That Was a Nice ShowLucas was still on immense pain. He continuously coughed hard as he held onto his chest, laying on the ground. He couldn't process what he had learned with the pain he was feeling. What he has on mind was why the pain so sudden?The pain remained in his chest like the hole on Vacio's book. But what he said shouldn't be true. It must be a deceiving trap ane he won't fall for that kind of stuff."Just admit it."He heard Vacio spoke. But as he tried to glance over him, his vision remained black and his ears were ringing with a strange noise. He covered his ears with both of his hands, but the noise wasn't ceasing already."You're lying! You're lying!" he became outrageous. "How come the hole on that book and this pain a firm proof? Don't try to coat your lies!"Vacio stood straight on his ground, staring on the boy front of him. He smiled as he stared at his helpless state. The pain he had caused him was intense, and he was quite surprised that Lucas has
Chapter 34: Mysterious Fifth GenLucas just kept his gaze at the Principal, the Headmaster, and Doll as they kept the same way to him, too. A moment of silence covered the whole room.This room didn't change at all. It was the same leather sofa that he had seen before, looking like the same as the Aspho's office.He cleared his throat before composing himself. "Miss Lyns, Headmaster Nova… the people who attacked Doll were people from Aspho," he mentioned. "namely CorpseBoy, ArmorBoy, and BladeGirl. I thought that my favor to you is to ban those craps at White Day High."Now, he had compelled himself to ask for this. If any favor would work, then it was his right time to plead with things like this. He stared at the Headmaster. His face wasn't changing at least a little. If he has the generosity to ask what he wanted, then maybe he has the power to fulfill it.He stared at Doll. No, shouldn't. He just shifted his gaze at the Principal. Her face seemed to be slightly shocked. No, it fel
Chapter 35: Punches For Each of ThemThe next day, Wednesday, Lucas packed his things and took a ride to the school to study. He was still bothered about the Fifth Gen that the Coach Clive had told them. He haven't seen the rest of the Selected Participants for a week already, and he had no clue who those unnamed two were.He just neglected his thoughts as he walked to the hallway, as he evaded the rails on the 32nd floor. Just as he thought about it, this floor was the area where he had fought Winter, beside the Fire Class Room that he first entered. This floor gave him uncomfortableness.As he continued advancing with caution, he saw the strange stares of the people again that were now bothering him. Is something bad will happen again?Was the news of Doll's abduction had reached the students? Or the parents? This will be a pain in the neck, but he was certain that Principal Lyns will keep that abduction a secret. Surely those that he had seen at the Infirmary Room were informed abo
Chapter 36: Let's Boycott Lucas Martin!After Lucas and Principal Lyns have left each other, he started parting ways with the Principal and started to walk away. In his mind, he has to see Moon. He has been acting strange since the day of Doll's abduction.As the turned right to the next chamber, a pair of hands took him next to the wall and grabbed his arm above his head. "What do you think you're doing?"Lucas saw Zanc glaring sharply at him in anger. He took a big step forward, still holding his arm.His right wrist was held in his vice-like grip and was extremely painful to him, but his eyes were cold and trained on Zanc. This was the spot where he usually assault, since he knew he was injured with this. He doted on his brown face, his left cheek was swollen.That punch he gave him; he made sure that Zanc's face will be in this condition, blood appearing at the edge of his lips. He remembered how he laid on the floor where he fell with Maru, looking pitiful and confounded.To thin
Chapter 37: Drenched with ColdwaterLucas stopped reading those feeds and focused on training his skills as he went back to the school. For some remaining time, the Overall Skill Selection will be held.But with that afternoon, as he was readying to practice, his Official Media channel began crowding with posts demanding that he should apologize to Mister Vacio. Apart from that were posts demanding that he should leave the White Day High as well. Lucas got tired of reading all those posts, so he locked himself inside the training room and practiced his agility once again.Once finished, Doll happened to call him and asked, "Lucas, are you okay?"Lucas tried his best to relax himself and wipe his sweat inside the training room full of fallen swords and knives, as he half-leaned on the nearly-crushed wall; his fingers trailing on the swelling wound he had gotten. He replied to Doll with a sigh, "I'm good.""Do you need any help?"He heard the concern from Doll after her reply; his lips
Chapter 38: How Do You Know It?Lucas continued walking out, but he was petrified when he heard that name. He didn't know if that was Vacio trying to piss him off, but it was a different voice.The words "Nice speech, Blaze Harper…" slowly resonated inside the hall as he stopped walking.He turned harshly to where it came from and saw a familiar man clapping with a smile from the far corner of the Conference Hall. He was greatly taken aback. He knew his haughty aura very well. He was not Mister Vacio.Isn't that Coach Clive?His memories of when he battled Vacio reappeared like sprouts. Was it true? Did Vacio say that Coach Clive knew all of the events from the past life he was saying? How come it was true?With all of the happenings interrupting her thoughts, Lucas recalled how Clive was overbearing and protective over him, significantly with the Null Room Incident. He cannot help his temper and walked back to the Conference Hall with an obvious anger.Everyone turned to look as he h
