Waking up from my bed, I sat up and yawned before stretching my arms up. "Yawn..."[5 : 29 A.M.]Scratching my back, I stood up and went to the bathroom to wash my face and took a shower.As I was nearing the bathroom, blood came out from my nose."A Nosebleed?" I muttered.Inside the bathroom, I looked at my reflection in the mirror, while removing the blood that came out from my nose."...Why does this happen very often nowadays?" I asked myself, and took out a clean cloth that was beside my toothbrush before wiping the blood coming out my nose.These days, almost every time I woke up from sleeping, I would always notice some blood coming out my nose whenever I look at my reflection on the mirror inside the bathroom.Of course, I tried consulting to the nurses and healers who took care of me while I was out for a week, but... they would only excuse themselves by saying that the reason for my nose to bleed might be because of stress and exhaustion.Even though I don't train my body
โMr. Arthur, Ms. Athena, thank you for making a reservation. Please make your way here.โ๐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฌ ๐ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ธ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐จ...As I was about to drink the water and drank it, just the same time as the waitress brought the other people to the table.โBwehhhh?!โ I spat the water out.โWhoa?!โ Arthur backed away from the table, startled. Ignoring this, I lifted my head towards their direction, Athena and I stared for a moment.""What are you doing here...?""As we stared at each other for a moment, Arthur grumpily spoke โHey, I just bought this clothes yesterday...โ His head slumped down as he looked at his clothes as if he was about to cry. "Anyway, what are two doing in here?" He asked, trying his best to ignore the gazes of some people around us.Since Chloe had been visiting me often most of the time during weekend, many students had become familiar with her, that includes Arthur, Lumine and Athena.โThatโs what I want to asโ Coughโฆ Urg, that w-went down the wrong holeโฆ
A few years ago.After Aaron had finally reached the entrance of the Lohengramm mansion, twisting his wrist, he looked at the watch.[4:16 AM]๐๐ฆ๐ธ ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฏ๐ถ๐ต๐ฆ๐ด ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ง๐ต, ๐ฉ๐ถ๐ฉ... Using the wall as support, Aaron continued walking until he saw the guards guarding at the entrance.Using his last bit of mana, he activated his skill to go past them without anyone noticing.[Flowing Wind]Immediately, his whole body was suddenly wrapped in air, slowly making him invisible.With this, he went inside and tried his hardest to find Celestia in the mansion without any of the maids and butler noticing.*Rustle~*Under the soft rustling trees was a girl with long cascading brown hair, and emerald green eyes looked above at the rising sunset on the horizon."Celestia.""Aaron."Both of their words synchronized in under their breaths as Aaron swallowed his saliva, and made his way towards her.Breathing out a deep sigh, Celestia then brushed her hair behind her ear before turning to her back
Greetings dear readers,Currently, the 1 - 150 chapter merely the prologue. After passing these chapter, many questions will be answered. Also, I'll leave a few hidden important details about what I'm planning to do in the future chapter. And if ever one of you managed to figure out what the original ending is gonna be, I can still easily change it since I already made 20 backup ending up until now. 5 of those endings are the best endings, then 5 of those are sad endings, again, 5 of those are happy endings, and the other last 5 will make you realize that I'm that 'fucked up' guy who likes to torture his main character๐.Anyways, again, I would like to remind you guys that I'm just a beginner writer, so don't expect too much from me. Lastly, the 1-150 chapters are more like the main prologue in the story. After passing through the 150 chapter, I'll start getting serious on writing and start writing something about the real main story and the reason why I decided to turn the 1-150 chap
"As I was saying, what do you think is the best way to handle the guild without the Guild Master right now? Do you have any suggestions?""....."While walking the girl called out for the boy's name to see if he was listening to what she just said earlier."โฌ?"Hearing her call out his name, โฌ couldn't help but take a glance at the girl's direction. "...what?" He asked, seemingly not interested about what was happening."You've been staring in the blank space for quite a while now. Is something the matter?" She asked, worried about the boy who remained staring in front of him indifferently."....."Without answering her question, โฌ fastened his pace on walking, ignoring the girl on his side.๐ ๐ฐ๐ถ'๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ช๐ต ๐ข๐ฏ๐บ๐ธ๐ข๐บ......Few years later."โฌ...

After I finished doing my thing, I quickly went back to the classroom to see if the class was over."Hmm...." Staring at the empty classroom, I shook my head and turned around to leave. Without further ado, I went towards my next class, which I'm sure I was late.Several minutes had passed since I started walking. I finally reached the classroom, and abruptly stopped myself from entering after noticing the two girls, with the principal, talking about something inside.I took a peek inside, and hide my presence using my dark magic to listen to what they were saying."Okay, class. These two will be your temporary teachers for two months since your professor, Cossette, had left a mission and won't be able to teach you," Eva announced, taking a side glance at the two beside her.As if she understood her gesture, the older girl began her introduction, "Good evening, everyone. I am Mila sol Crossmare; and as for the girl beside me, she is my sister, Charlotte sol Crossmare." With a smile, s
Seeing Charlotte entering my room without permission, I couldn't help but breathe out exasperatedly. I mean, who in the right mind would enter a guy's room without their consent? Much more, when they're about to sleep!!๐๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐จ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ด๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ด๐ฆ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ค๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ช๐ฎ๐ฆ... I thought, poking my head out of the darkness above the ceiling. Earlier, I was lazily laying on my bed when I suddenly heard a loud knock on the door. I was about to give a reply when I sensed a strong intent coming from outside. Without wasting much time, I activated my skill [Darkness Maneuver] to hide, at the same time, she went inside."She's still angry at me for not showing up yesterday, I see..." Blinking my eyes a couple of times, I managed to take a glimpse at my reflection after she moved away from the mirror. Anyone who see me like this would probably be scared the hell out because what I was doing was straight like from a horror movie."Enough of that." Murmuring
"How dare you!" Blood flowed out from his nose as he tried to stand up. He grinded his teeth and raised his hands, pointing his fingers towards the both of them. "I'll make you both regret this!"I looked at the boy with pity. Even without saying, after the two girls saw that I was getting beat up, I knew that it would end badly for him. And from the looks of it, they looked at him like they were about to blow up in anger.๐๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ฏ'๐ต ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต... I regrettably thought, exhaling before turning my head to look at Athena. Rubbing the blood out that slowly poured down from my nose, I questioned, "Whatcha doing here? I thought you guys had classes this time."Averting her attention from the boy to me, Athena blinked a few times before answering, "Didn't the principal announced yesterday that the classes today will be suspended, because the exceeding half of the professors will be sent to a mission?""Ah..." With a look of realization, I facepalmed inwardly. "I tot
As we were entering the school, I accidentally heard some rumours spreading about what happened yesterday.According to the rumour, a student from this school had helped on preventing two accidents... Hmm.. Fortunately, thanks to my sweater, none of them seem to have recognized me last night.I can probably rest easy for now...Kim's sudden pause drew our attention, his gaze fixed on my face with an inexplicable expression...What's with him anyway? He's been acting weird since this morning.... Wait, isn't he and Kiyona already weird since the very beginning?With a silent nod to myself, we continued toward the classroom, Kim still recovering from his apparent shock."....?"As we approached, a group of students gathered by the door caught my eye. Curiosity piqued, I approached them to inquire about the commotion."Hey, what's going on?" I asked one of the students.-Ah... Well, do you remember the Arto
Entering the apartment building, I was immediately greeted by Miss Olivia, her warm demeanor a stark contrast to the unsettling events of the day.Earlier, I had borrowed Aerial's phone to make a call, seeking refuge in their home. Jack, the owner of the apartment, agreed almost immediately upon hearing my situation.Aerial's surprise was palpable when she learned that I was practically homeless after running away from home. By the time I hung up and said my thanks, she immediately asked about what happened.Since I have nothing to lose anyway, I decided to tell her the truth.... Not the regression part, of course.Her reactions were somehow expected; she sympathize with me, and thus, diverted the topic back to our work.Anywaysโ"Vallen is finally here," Olivia informed Jack, who nonchalantly continued watching a horror movie, the flickering images casting an eerie glow across the room."You're here already?" he said, h
"This..."Staring at the intricate equations sprawled across the fifteen papers and the detailed drawing of the portal along with its required components that I was holding, I sighed in frustration and let my head drop to the table....I never expected it to be this perplexing. I mean, it was genuinely confusing, with the numbers outnumbering the alphabets!I was on the verge of placing the papers back on the table when something caught my attention."...This thing requires someone as a test subject, right?"Turning toward Aerial's direction, I stood up from my seat."Can I be the one to do that?"Thanks to my looping ability, if something goes wrong, I can just regress back to the first day and make the necessary adjustments to the machine until it works....Playing scientist again this round... Why does it feels weird?"...Why?" She asked, pulling me back to reality. Her face showed a confused express
"....""...."Tapping my index finger on the table, my eyes shifted between Aerial and the mysterious numbers sprawled across the paper she was holding. How in the world could she decipher this cryptic language?"....Mmm." I closed my eyes, pondering. If it were just ordinary numbers, she wouldn't bother, unless these papers concealed a hidden messageโa Morse code of sorts.".....""....ugh."Finally, after what felt like an eternity, she placed the folders down, meticulously arranging them on the table. Glancing my way, she closed her eyes and inquired, "...what do you want?""....!!"Clearing my throat, I put on a smile and replied, "Ah... Well, I want to join this club." She abruptly halted, processing my unexpected announcement.Turning her head slightly, she contemplated before asking, "Why do you want to join?" Her scrutinizing gaze moved from top to bottom."It's because... ah?""You know what, zip it." Before I could elaborate, she handed me a paperโan application for the club
"You're Vallen, aren't you?"I turned my head in Alicia's direction, casting her a weary glance before refocusing on the front of the classroom."Don't ignore me!"Alicia slammed her hands on my table, causing me to shrink back into my chair... I'm getting annoyed."Hey, I'm asking youโ?!"Kiyona's hands intervened, cutting off Alicia's words. She looked at me with a frown. "You know this girl?" she inquired, squinting."...Nope. Never seen her before," I responded sarcastically, rolling my eyes towards the window.Although I didn't admit it outright, the lie was evident from my expression and tone. Strangely, Kiyona appeared to buy into it....Is she an idiot?"Pfft!" Kim couldn't contain a sound, swiftly covering his mouth. Our eyes met, his expression stiffening before he looked away.Alicia, seemingly unfazed by our silent exchange, voiced her annoyance."How are you able to see...?" she asked curiously, crossing her arms."How do you think? It's because I have eyes." I pointed tw
At the auditorium.The three of us took our seats together. Kiyona, the vibrant and talkative girl, claimed the center. Kim sat on the left, and I occupied the right."There are so many people here!" Kiyona exclaimed, rising suddenly and letting out a loud "woo hoo!" This drew surprised glances from the students in front of us."Stop it... You're only embarrassing us," Kim chided her, shaking his head slightly before turning to me."I hope you're not uncomfortable with this girl... She's a bit eccentric, to say the least."Well, I can see that... I thought, glancing up at Kiyona, who was smiling wholeheartedly. Despite her eccentricities, there was something likable about her that I couldn't quite pinpoint."Hey, Kim! The principal is making her appearance!" Kiyona pointed excitedly to the center of the stadium.She added, "She looks young and beautiful! How old is she again?" Her eyes sparkled at the sight of the principal. I rolled my eyes and snorted.Indeed, appearances could be d
As soon as I woke up back inside my room on the mansion, confusion engulfed me as I checked the calendar that was on the shelf before checking through my phone.'First Day of School!'It was the same.Panic gripped me; this regression wasn't exactly as I anticipated. Cursing my predicament, I held my head in frustration. "Why had I been thrust back to the beginning?" There were no answers, and the disorienting return only fueled my anxiety.Contemplating various possibilities, I considered the absurd idea of being poisoned. However, logic swiftly dismissed it โ Miss Olivia, who shared the meal, wouldn't endanger herself nor her boyfriend. She wasn't that reckless or suicidal.Desperation led my mind to entertain wild theories. Had my father sent assassins? A notion swiftly dismissed, recognizing the improbability... Although there is still a possibility, I knew his personality. The mind raced, concocting and discarding scenarios, each more implausible than the last.Tok Tokโ!The ca
"...That was boring."As I said that, I carefully removed the bloody gloves on my hand and took out a plastic bag, then placed it inside."None of them even lasted a minute... I guess they never had any proper training." I kept the plastic bag inside my bag before turning away. It's not that I know much about what kind of group the Resistance were, but I did encounter one of them back when I was still sixteen.It was around that age I started my hunt."...Clean."Unlike last time, I made sure that there would be no witnesses during the whole act. As for the three corpses behind me, I laid their backs on the wall and made sure to throw some substances to make it rot faster. Even though I knew for sure that it would smell, as long as there aren't any evidence pointing that I did it, it should be fine.Plus, I already made sure that the CCTVs around the area are destroyed earlier before I did the deed. And also, there are only few people who pass by this area. Meaning, the possibility of
"Yo! William!"Startled, William tensed up, his tail wiggling cutely as he eagerly turned around. Upon spotting me, his expression lit up, his chin raised with enthusiasm."Vallen! Long time no see!" he greeted, the corners of his lips curling upward.Amused, I closed my eyes for a brief second, shook my shoulders, and settled into the chair across from him. I signaled the waitress to take my order."So, what have you been up to lately?" I turned my attention back to William. He leaned back comfortably and responded with a soft hum."Mostly family business, and the rest of my time is spent hanging out with my girlfriend," he said, a hint of smugness in his tone.I rolled my eyes at his response and sighed. "Yeah, right. I'm getting jealous.""Liar," he retorted, pursing his lips. "Your expression clearly says the opposite. Anyway, how's your eyes? I thought you wouldn't be able to see.""Ah... Well, let's save that question and enjoy the snack first!"As my order arrived, he let the m
