“Over here! Quick!” A person shouted. He had come with the reinforcements from the high school, and seemed to be a rank higher than the other teachers, seeing the way the teachers flocked around him. Immediately after he shouted, several people ran over to him, eager to receive instructions from the man. “Can’t you all see that he’s seriously injured?! What are you still doing? Heal him quickly!” The man said, pointing a student that was bleeding profusely. The healers among the people he called quickly rushed up to the boy, and started casting several healing spells on him. In a matter of seconds, the boy was healed of his injuries. Several scenes similar to this were also taking place in different places in the camps. Teachers, led by departmental heads ran around the busy camps, treating as much injured as they could, taking a huge amount of workload off the dog tired healers. In an office built in the camps, Dean Shinomiya and his assistant watched the scene from the windows w
“Greene, let him in.”The Dean’s voice echoed from inside his office, startling the two men outside. By the look of things, he had heard the conversation between the gold ranked hunter and his assistant, and therefore decided to grant him audience to speak with him.Greene, the Dean’s assistant, vehemently disagreed with Dean. He didn’t want the hunter to meet with the Dean.“Dean Shinomiya, I don’t think we should let him in. We have more important things to do.” The assistant replied, passing the hunter a side look that was filled with contempt.Rodd, the gold ranked hunter looked at the assistant and scoffed at the subtle insult, but said nothing. The decision to grant him an audience with the Dean didn’t rest on him but on the Dean, so he could care less about what the assistant thought.“Why? He might have something important to tell us.” The Dean retorted.“It surely can’t be as important as what we were doing, Dean Shinomiya.” The assistant shot back, not willing to give up.Th
Rodd, a gold ranked hunter, didn’t know the corpse on the floor, but he knew that from the reaction of the Dean, the corpse’s identity was far from simple.The Dean however just stared at the body; his mind was reeling with shock.He couldn’t figure out why the Purple Pavilion would send their members to disrupt their training. As a being half step into becoming a God, he knew that there was more to the attack that met the eye.As he studied the corpse, he was suddenly reminded of something important. The members of the Purple Pavilion were by no means weak, so it begged a very important question.Just who was capable of killing a terrorist from the transcendental organization? As far as he knew there were very few people who were capable of killing a member of the organization present in the Aegis Empire.Most of them were very busy as they attended to numerous serious matters, so much that they barely had time for themselves, not to talk of coming to the Zivel Forests.The only reas
-Zik City, Etienne Mansion- “And on today’s news, we are reporting on the vicious attack on Aegis Imperial High School. According to inside formation, the Dean of Aegis Imperial High School made a drastic decision to send their top students to the Zivel Forests.” “As we all know, the Zivel forests is a location that just received an A-rank in terms of danger level. It is dangerous even for gold ranked hunters, and they actively avoid the said forest.” “This brings us to ask a very important question. What made the Dean of Aegis Imperial High School ask send his students to such a dangerous place?” “The answer we got was shocking. As we all know, despite claiming the number one rank in the Empire; there have been complaints about their poor run of defeats in the Regal Tournament, a top ranked tournament involving several empires.” “In a bid to improve their ranking in the upcoming tournament next year, the Dean sent his students to the forests. Unfortunately, things didn’t go as pl
The bright rays of the sun peeked past the windows in Lukas room, lighting up the dim room. Lukas closed his eyes at the sudden bright light, before turning over on the small bed, using his bed sheets to prevent the bright rays from touching him. It had been a week since they came back from the forests, so the backlash from the media had yet to die down. There was also no classes being held now, as a lot of teachers had lost their lives in the attack, so the students were forced to self study. Lukas in particular was having it rough. Mr. Luis was nowhere to be found after the attack. He wasn’t confirmed dead, as his body was yet to be found, but most people believed that he was dead. Due to his sudden disappearance, Lukas was left with only the magic circles for his deviant element and the technique for improving his mana control. Many students had decided to withdraw from the school, as they were unable to overcome the trauma from the attack. Those who had decided to stay still h
The alarm in Lukas’ room rang, waking the silver haired boy from his sleep. Lukas groaned, before rolling over, shutting the loud alarm.Lukas sat up, fully rested from his yesterday’s trip to the mall. He stood up from his bed before exiting his room.A few minutes later, Lukas came back wet, his lean but muscular body dripping with water. After drying his body off, he turned his gaze to the unpacked boxes he bought yesterday.He put on his new outfits with a smile on his face, liking the ease and style they provided him with. He looked at the ring on his right index finger, before adjusting the collar of the coat.He smiled again, extremely satisfied with what he saw, before making his way out of the dorm.He hailed a cab when he got outside the building, paid the slightly expensive t-fare in advance, albeit grudgingly, before settling into the back seat.***After a few hours of driving, the taxi finally came to a stop. The journey showed how far the Hunter’s Alliance building was
Lukas took his seat on the empty bench, before opening the small book. His heart was beating with anticipation, as he was eager to know the rankings and their privileges.Lukas was soon engrossed in the small book, ignoring everything around him. He didn't know how long he read, but after some time he was finally done with reading.Lukas sighed. The rankings were pretty straightforward, as the book explained everything concerning it.There was the Bronze rank, which was the lowest and the starting rank for hunters. There were a total of 5 stars in each rank, and only when a hunter had made achievements equivalent to five stars would they be promoted to the next rank.As it was right now, Lukas was just a one star bronze rank hunter. The hunter card he was given also had his rank printed on it.The next rank was the silver rank. It showed that the hunter was no longer a newbie. Many hunters were stuck in this rank, as it was hard for them to garner achievements or contribution points w
Lukas stood up from the empty bench with a smile on his face. He had just found the perfect solution to his problem.Since the hunters judged him based on his appearance, they won't be able to judge him at all if they couldn't see his face! It was a simple but effective solution.Lukas exited the luxurious hall for a second time. There was a store not too far away from the Hunter Alliance building. It should be a 10 minute walk from the building.Lukas walked leisurely, ignoring the recruitment offers shouted by the hunters. Now that he had a solution to his problem, he didn't put their discriminating behavior in mind. After walking for ten minutes, he finally got to the store he had in mind.The store was not a big one, but it was decent. Lukas greeted the male sales attendant in the store before making his way to the section he came here for.It was none other than the mask section.There were a variety of masks in the section he was, making Lukas smile. He just had to wear a mask,
