DEFILEMENT OF COSMIC

Chapter Three- Min's departure

"Min, how was your graduation?" min's employer asked

"Well, it was fun, we got gifts, ate snacks, played games, drank alcohol..."

"Isn't that illegal? Aren't you guys like minors?"

"Ehehehe , well we hid at a classmate's house and drank to our full"

Her employee just shook her head and mumbled something about kids of this day being stubborn, et cetera.

After her day's job min got severely scolded by her two annoyed friends and ignored for a whole week before they later calmed down.

Dong and Claire were to attend the same high school while min told them to look for a suitable scholarship scheme for her (since their parents were influential and she was too lazy to look for one herself).

Dong due to the connections his father had got one for min,

It was perfect, free food, good dormitory, fancy uniforms, free food…..  (o﹃ o)

"Min you've said free food two times and stop drooling at the images" Claire rebuked

"Sorry, the food looked so good, and also free, amazing~,  I'll take this one, thanks dong"

"No biggie, I know you'll get it"

"Are you sure min? it's in japan"

"Don't worry, japan is among one of the languages I learnt claire"

"With that big brain of yours, of course it's very possible just learning a language that take months in weeks  but still become good in it, so unfair"

'But what am saying is that its far away from us' Claire solemnly thought

"Hehe, what should I say, I guess am blessed"

'Well, I guess she doesn't really care, huh?' slightly frowns but then smiled brightly

"Yeah, aren't you?"

They discussed for a while before leaving for their various places.

Later min wrote the scholarship exam and passed with flying colors.

The scholarship exam was good, only a bit weird, when they used a stick thingy to check everyone, if the stick didn't glow they'd directly chase you out which was confusing and suspicious, but since it was government approved and her gut feeling told her nothing wrong was going to happen, she went along.

##########################################################################

At the airport was an American girl with blonde hair while being consoled by a red haired boy that was slightly tanned, another girl with ink-like hair with round eyes was also holding briefcases and looked like she was waiting for something.

"Wuwuwu, I'm gonna miss you so much min" Claire said, tears flowing down her fair skin

"I too, take care of yourself min and call us sometimes too" dong said

"No worries, just focus on your studies and making babies, okay?"

Claire:…..What?

Min: You know~

Claire: You perverted girl!

Dong left to get something and Claire took the chance to mother-talk min.

"Min, no kidding, if anything weird happens, you've got your phone to talk to us, 'kay?" Claire emphasized

Min only smiled without exactly agreeing, while thinking

'As expected, claire also has the feeling that something ain't right and a female's intuition is mostly never wrong,

But instead of feeling danger, my intuition feels like this is not dangerous but at the same time it's also not not dangerous, so weird, but what's more dangerous is...

The fact the more the weirder it is, the more I dive headfirst, hehehehe'

"Min, I hope you're not thinking of directly jumping into danger like I think you're doing..." claire asked with a threatening face

"You missed 'if there is', you know."

"MIN!"

"Fine, don't worry, if I'm in danger I'll call you guys"

Claire: (stare~)

"I promise"

"(Mutters) At least you never fail that"

After taking about half an hour to caution her naughty child, her husband finally came back

"Claire you should leave Min alone, I think by now she gets it"

"I do" Min declared, looking like she had heard enough

"Here Min, the new headphones you wanted, the new sets..." They said giving min a spring-green colored headphone

"This is too...."

"Departure gift from me and dong, be using it to remember us so your spicy chicken memory won't forget us"

Min smiled genuinely happy, it seemed her friends won't forget about her now they were in a relationship and she was traveling far, (that's right, the morons finally kicked it off),

Although she trusted her friends, human nature still abided, but the fact they also worried she would forget them.

'Idiots, of course I won't forget the only friends that managed to stay with me despite my bad friendship management issues'.

When her ride arrived, min hugged them for the last time and entered the plane, they waved at each other till the plane left land to air.

"Goddamn I'll miss that bear child, hmm, claire? come on now, stop crying"

Thus the husband consoled his weeping wife who was already missing their bear child and they both left the airport.

...................................................

When min entered the plane, the first thing she noticed was the tactic understanding everyone to be on their own without any socialization and she couldn't be more supportive. To avoid even small talk she sat near the one who looked most busy with her phone, seemingly talking to her boyfriend.

Min was very right at her choice as the girl merely glanced at her then continued with her business.

'I should call Dong and Claire when we reach our destination, for now I'd rather not, I don't want to listen to Claire crying, that Mother-like kid...'

Min briefly looked around the plane and noticed the mood of the plane was a bit tense, some were fidgeting looking both nervous and excited, another group looked like they were ready to jump off the plane if shit gets to bullshit and others just slouched down and lazily enjoyed the ride, like min's seatmate.

Min took out her phone and decided to chill out with some gore and horror she downloaded earlier.

Few hours later, everything became strangely quiet, but min didn't notice until her seatmate's head dropped at her side...

'AAAHH! Is that a head?!, cut out?!, don't tell me they've come, I'm innocent! QAQ' min panickly thought

Looking at her shoulder again carefully...

'Phew, the head and body are at least still intact, eh...,what's happening here?'

Min was still wondering just that until she perceived the distinctive smell of sedative, having a good nose and having helped her mother in making herbal medicine before her death, min was able to know that this was a sedative mixed with another weird stuff and that it was very potent.

She wondered why these guys would try to drug them, they were kids, on their plane, and this was government approved, they were basically goners, No?

Maybe to keep a secret?

A secret organization that works secretly with the government, what do they do? Overpopulation so they're basically selling us out?

New experiments needing test subjects? Some creepy stuff?, whatever it was, Min was so in!

'Sorry claire, I'll pass on your advice this time, I mean I might as well create chaos before I get unjustly killed off, I basically don't have a way out, jump off the plane?, Call the police?, they're all in on it, na?, might as well try my best when I reach there'

So min using that mindset continued on to treat the sedative as a medium to enjoy a comfy sleep ('cause it typically was for her, as she was not affected).

Few minutes later a blue haired man and a brunette lady came out.

"This one's special, sleeping off by herself, the magic didn't even affect her, for an 'Outsider' that's pretty sleek" a blue haired guy commented

"Yeah, but chain her up, I don't need unnecessary trouble, we'll be calling them to open the portal soon enough" another brunette lady ordered.

Hours later

"Ugh..., my head! hmmmm" min woke up feeling dizzy and very sleepy and discovered that she was tied up

"You're unusually calm for someone who's been chained" the blue haired guy said

Min smirked and answered "you might hate me if I really start trouble, I could crash this plane if I wanted and that's no joke"

"For a fifteen year, you sure are gutsy"

"Hehe…"

"Aren't you wary of us?"

"No"

"Why?"

"Gut feeling"

"You trust it?"

"Yup, can I sleep?"

"I'm not done questioning you"

"I'm sleeping"

Blue-haired man: *stunned*

Min directly fell asleep there and then without bothering with the man, who was left stunned.

"What a bold kid" the brunette commented, at which the blue haired dude just shrugged at and left min alone.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When they arrived, Min had already awakened herself, although she acted calm, she was still a bit nervous about her situation, I mean who wouldn't, who sees death and unhesitantly rushes at it?

Her nervousness shortened her sleep and she woke up ultimately ;

Min was only a bit calm because her death won't exactly affect anyone too much...

Dong and claire? they'll be sad but will still forget her as time goes by, and then she'll probably become "that friend", and a taboo topic.

The old lawyer? a bit maybe but would soon forget, he'll only have guilt to remember her with.

In the end, it was only family that could have you in the depths of their heart even after death, and she had none.

It was sad but comforting since she could live anyhow without worrying about anyone.

She was ready for anything.

***

Although that was said, she never expected THIS, especially since she wasn't really into the fantasy genre, she was one who believed magic couldn't possibly exist and hated watching things with no possibility of happening.

But the SIGHT her eyes beheld really exceeded her imaginations and all the possibilities she made up.

Not only min was stunned, the other kids also were.

After they woke up, a bunch of them struggled while others just gave up, a few were crying vehemently and the blue hair and brunette seemed pretty much used to it, so they just let them be until the plane stopped and they were all shoved out and saw the sight before them.

Actually, while others were freaking out, min already caught a glance of the sight from the plane and was reeling to get down but since she was 'specially' handled she had to wait until the others was taken care of before her and that really pissed her off,

Because of that she was frowning when she was let down but her expression immediately morphed to surprise and the change was a bit comical, especially since her already round eyes got rounder when she widened them.

When min had woke up she was already prepared to see one (or all) of the seven wonders of the world--

Mafia (not surprised), Mechas (so in), Harem for the prince? ( I'll pass ), Test subjects (cyborg?, I don't mind), Cult (I'll hunt you if I become a ghost so you'll join me).

But surprise couldn't be enough to describe what she felt, she wasn't even this shocked when she caught dong sleeping with a doll look alike of claire,

(That kid was too fallen, actually that was creepy AF, that was one of the reasons she decided to force them to hurry up and date, although it was good stuff since she got whatever she asked dong to give her for a whole month because of that incident).

What her eyes were laid on was a giant gate like none she had ever seen,

'TSUKI MAGICAL ACADEMY'

......was written on the gate.

They saw a glimpse of a castle but when they entered the gate they finally saw the full view of castle like building,

It had huge phoenix and dragon like birds with people on top of it circling it,

An extraordinary wide surroundings with grasses of different colors and specimen never seen before and a calming floral scent,

A huge water fountain that was literally sparkling like the night stars only difference being that, the fountain was ocean blue in color.

It was so beautiful she subconsciously shouted a 'wow', the view was so mesmerizing that she didn't know she was approaching the fountain.

"Wow, wow, wow, young lady, I see you're a handful eh? do you know you're approaching the fountain?, what if it leads to your death?"

The brunette lady from the plane stops Min by holding her up the collar and motions to the blue haired man to take the other kids (who were even more shocked than min) inside the school.

Other kids: …why do we feel like background decorations? QAQ

Blue-haired man: don't worry guys at least our roles will be quite appreciated 

"Why would you put such a beautiful fountain as a death trap? that's gotta be illegal"

"I see you're a bold one?"

"Na, I just say things when i want, how i want"

"You know, I like frank and troublesome people like you"

"Should I be flattered?"

"Why don't I take you somewhere to see a person, if she takes a fancy to you, your days in this school will be quite comfortable"

"Why me? I don't mind following the others though"

"Didn't I tell you, I've taken a liking to your boldness"

Min stared at her for a while and decided to just go along with it, especially as she had nothing to lose and also to avoid annoying the lady; since she was in a strange land and all she might as well have a few accomplices.

"Okay"

'Thinking about it, how did we get here? I was only awake when we had already entered here and didn't notice since there wasn't anything 'special' when we were flying up. It seems like it was to hide the entrance from us, that was why we were put to sleep hm?'.

The brunette took min inside the castle, and min couldn't help but admire the castle, it was beautiful, a mixture of gray, royal blue and its floor shone like crystals, so very beautiful;

The chandelier hung at the entrance of the hall was lit and made the crystal like floor shimmer with a bluish hue.

Min was still enjoying the view, when the brunette lady came to a stop at a door and knocked twice, after a while a stern voice, somehow in between a masculine and feminine tone said "Let them in", the door opened on its own and the brunette and min entered in,

Min wasn't surprised, she was only confused and had one thing in mind--

'Did the door open by voice command (tech) or another type of voice command (magic)?'

When they entered inside the office, the brunette whispered something to the stern voiced and strict looking lady before facing min

"Min this is your soon-to-be guardian depending on your performance"

The strict looking woman stood up and looked down on min (since min was shorter), she released a bit of her aura enough to make a person without magic faint (for the weak ones), and to buckle up or at least start sweating bullets( for the strong ones).

Opposite to what was supposed min stared right back into her eyes without a flinch only a wearing confused face while thinking

'Her aura is ice-like and very chilling, she must possess ice-like powers or something similar...wait what?!

This is crazy, I am crazy! magic really exists?! it has to! look at her, if her aura isn't magical then what is?!

And those stern eyes and that hair, i wonder how beautiful she'll look when fighting,

Probably with glowing eyes and fluttering hair and blood of her enemies flowing,

Ice-blue and blood red, very beautiful, I bet it'll be breathtaking, I want to see it myself, one day......'

Min thought excitedly. 

Maybe this world wouldn't be that bad after all~.
