[A/N : I apologize for the inconvenient. This chapter was supposed to be much more longer, but after opening it earlier, the file got corrupted for some reason. I had to rewrite everything I remember and cut the chapter short, so that I could post the other part on Monday...]Earlier after the class time had finished."Athan!"Upon hearing someone call out to him, Deus halted his steps and turned his head towards the direction of where the call was. He saw William running towards his direction with a widened smile, and on his side was Arthur, Leigh and Lumine.By the time William reached him, he was already panting hard as if he had ran around the whole school for hours. Normally, since William was trained by his father, it would be obvious that his stamina was pretty decently high. But seeing him like this, Deus had thought that William might actually have ran around the whole school in order to find him."Where's Persia? Isn't she supposed to be with you?"When he noticed that Pers
"I told ya."Saying this, Deus rested his back comfortably on the chair. He had already foresaw this to happen, so it wasn't a surprise to him that the latter won against his opponent, but what surprised him was that the student was actually a shadow crest user.This crest was included in the Legendary Class, of course. It works almost similar to my Darkness. The only thing different was that unlike darkness, the shadow crest requires shadows from shades of an object, person, or other things like trees, walls and etc., as what said from it's name, to work or function. And also, unlike the darkness crest, light magic can either give shadow an advantage or disadvantage depending on the situation. For example, if the battle is on a mountain or forest, shadow users will have most of the advantage since they could easily blend themselves in the surroundings with the help of their skill, [Blend Shadow], as well as their power might get buffed because of the effect of having more shadow in t
Back at arena."Transforming concept... Adding concept... And distorting concept... Those are the basic abilities of 'shadow'." Arthur explained to his friend, "That means, the boy earlier held back probably too much because he could probably defeat his opponent by just standing still and using his other abilities.""Wait, I thought that shadow is similar to darkness..." William expression became confused."Well, basically, it also work similar to darkness since copying other abilities is easy since you can control the concept of transformations, adding concept, distorting concept, like what I've mentioned earlier. In other words, it's much more powerful than the darkness..."After hearing this, William's expression became more confused than earlier, his mouth was slightly opened as he look at Arthur, blinking his eyes a few times. "If it's more powerful than the crest of darkness, why is it only 4th in the rankings of the strongest crest?""If you listened to our professor when he me
Lost between the line of good and evil.Wondering if this life was ever even real.Strange chills sent shivers down my spine...After seeing the figure appeared who carrying a black scythe.Through his words, his voice whispered filled with shroud of lies.{If you dare, come closer and take a chance.Won't you please give me the privilege for us to dance?Do not fear, do not fret. For I am simply not violent.Why are you the one being silent?When I should be the one consumed by life...Will you just take my hand, a mere angel full of lies?Or will you be the one to put a stake in my life?}Hearing the voice, the boy accepted and jumped,He walked to the figure, and it raised it's arm.The figure chuckled, and revealed a puppet under his cloak.The boy took it's hand and danced with it,As the devil controlled his old and 'new' puppet by himself.~~~"Mom, look! I made a crown made out of flowers!" A child that had a sickly appearance, pale skin that was like a corpse after losing a l
"Ah..."After suffering from a massive headache, Deus wakes up in his room. He rubs his eyes and looks around the room... He tries to sit up, but he is so dizzy that he falls back on the bed. He groans... And thinks..."What happened...?"He tries to sit up again, his head still spinning.... He tries not to move too much... As his head is hurting a lot... He lays back down on the bed, holding his head... What happened last night...? Was it a fight...? The memory is all foggy and hazy to him... He tries to recall what happened..."Did I win...? I think not."As he tried to recall what happened, his room door suddenly swung open.Someone came in - It was Evangeline, the principal.The principal walked over to the Deus' bed and gently sat down beside him.Then she spoke to him, a relieved smile on her face as she said, "You're finally awake. Are you okay?"He looks up at the principal. He then smiles and gives a joke, scratching his bandages wrapped chest as he says it, "Well, at least I
The two finished drinking their drinks. After they finished taking a quick break, they started to leave to go outside. They walked through the halls and out of the building, and they kept on walking until they eventually reached the exit. There were a lot of people there from various different backgrounds, and they all seemed to be enjoying the time they were talking ro their family. Some people were selling food and drinks, while others were playing games and dancing.William seemed to be excited as well, and they decided to explore the whole school together before deciding to go out to the city.Arriving at the city, the two saw many colorful, beautiful and unusual designed lamps hanging around on the streets even though it was still day. However, none of these lamps are lighted up by flame as they were only left hanging as a design outside the buildings and street lamps."Let's go check that store! I heard from some people that it was quite popular for having some unusual yet good-
"Why did my mother have to die because of you?"A girl who had a hair that shine finely like silk looked at the boy before her with an enraged expression. Her eyes were sharp, that if gazes could kill, she would have killed the boy in front of her."Why did she even tried to save you? It's because of you, she was left there to die... If only you didn't exist!"The boy remained silent as he let her throw every words with hate. He couldn't afford to tell her that what happened to her mother and him was actually the opposite. However...He knew that if he told her that, it might cause her to have a mental breakdown... Adding the fact that she was trying to kill him almost every day, she would be consumed by guilt if that ever happens."If only you weren't there, she could have lived enough to see the day tomorrow... Why do you have to become a burden to this family!"Biting her lower lips, the girl stopped after tasting a metallic taste in her mouth. "This is all your fault...!"She gr
[A/N : Apologies guys, I fell on the stairs a 3 days ago. Because after I suddenly got dizzy and my vision turned dark, I accidentally stepped on the side edge of the stairs, so I slipped and fell. Unfortunately, I didn't hit my head because I was able to hold on the... (I forgot what it was called) on time before my head hit the ground. On the other hand, (speaking of hand), I had injured my right hand, that's why I couldn't continue writing this chapter.... Why am I always this clumsy, I have no idea.]"He's fight was harsh..." Arthur sighed exasperatedly, shaking his head and turning his attention to me."Meh... It's fine. It's not like he killed his opponent. A little beating can't cause that much trouble as long as his opponent remained alive after the battle." I replied, slumping my back comfortably at the chair."Still..."Arthur sighed once again after hearing his reply. "Nonetheless, I'm still wondering why Lumine decided to surrender her match? I mean, she could have beat Roc
