Students were done with breakfast, so they were instructed to go to their various clubs. Raya finally pathed ways with Ajax after having a long discussion about how they survived in the dungeon. Ajax simply told her that Jeremy was skillful enough to handle some mutants before help came. He didn't bother mentioning anything about him running wild, or about Darick. He wasn't sure who Darick was. If the academy had no clue of who he was, then there's a possibility that he's not Darick. But whoever he was, he knew Ajax's secret, and he is also a Souljacker. So Ajax doubted Darick revealing his secret. Ajax headed to the martial arts hall with Jeremy. Jeremy was yet to reveal his ability to anyone. All he relied on during battle was his two blades. Ajax, of course, found it strange to hide his ability for so long. Even if people usually hide their abilities, they surely would use them when they encounter danger. But the fact that Jeremy hasn't used it once, even when Ajax almost k
The fight between Blex and Ajax carried on for several minutes. The students already sat down to enjoy the duel. Ajax chose not to use his full strength or any of his abilities, so he just fought Blex with half of his strength. Even when Ajax was holding back, his strength was still able to match Blex's superhuman strength. Blex charged forward toward his opponent again, when he was meters away from Ajax, he leaped up into the air and delivered a hammer-like kick toward Ajax's head. Ajax saw Blex's leg heading towards him at incredible speed. Ajax quickly did a backflip to avoid the strike. "Isn't he suppose to be a weak loser? How is he able to go toe to toe against Blex?" One of the students watching the fight said. "Didn't you see the way he defeated Oliver Oliver without breaking a sweat? I'm sure he's only pretending and hiding his true ability" Another student replied. "But he doesn't have a skill slot, how then is he supposed to have an ability" Students kept murmuring
Before he could start speaking, the entrance door swung open and two reasonably large teachers walked in. "Me Ajax Hart, your presence is needed urgently," The teacher said with a straight look. 'Darn it, so they finally woke up and told them everything?' Ajax thought. There was no other reason for him to be called by a teacher, except he was in trouble. Ajax gulped down before stepping forward and headed towards the teachers. Jeremy could see the worried look on Ajax's face when he got called. He couldn't help but worry about him. Ajax walked out with the teachers leading the way.'What did you do this time Ajax?' Jeremy thought.**** Ajax walked behind the teachers while heading to their destination. While walking, Ajax was trying to figure out how to escape. He thought about fighting the two teachers and running away. But it was impossible to beat a teacher without alarming the rest. So he had no choice but to stay calm and accept his fate. Ajax knew from the direction
The day was gradually getting dark, and soon it'll be dinner time. Students already returned to their dorm rooms to freshen up before heading to the cafeteria for dinner. Inside the hospital that was located in a certain area of the academy, two teachers could be seen standing beside a boy. "I'll ask you again Gary, what happened to you? And did you see who killed Draco?" one of the teachers asked with authority in his voice. The question had been asked three times and Gary hasn't uttered a single word ever since he woke up. He was just sitting there in one spot, it felt like his mind was somewhere else. Gary was busy debating whether to say anything or not. If he should say Ajax was the one who knocked them out and killed Draco, they'll ask questions about what they were doing up there so late, and why Ajax had to knock them out. If they keep investigating, they'll probably find out that they were the ones who tried to kill Ajax before he fought back. Even if Draco claimed Aj
"Are you sure he's telling the truth? And he's not covering up for someone?" Sir Damien asked in mistrust. The Draco he knew was not someone who would get scared easily and kill himself. Something must be wrong somewhere. "I guess there's only one way to find out if it's the truth or not" Sir Damien spoke up as he stood up from his chair "Invite the Supreme mind reader over, tell them we need a favor from them". The teacher bowed his head slightly before walking out, closing the door behind him. 'Mr Walker would arrive first thing tomorrow morning. I just hope what Gary says is true, because if it's not, then there will be serious trouble' Sir Damien thought with his two fists clenched tightly.**** Ajax hurried back to his dorm after his little conversation with Darick. He tried his best not to be spotted leaving the hospital area. He wasn't sure of what Darick did to them, and if he got caught leaving the area, they'd blame him for whatever happened. Kachum!Ajax opened the d
It was a sunny afternoon, and people around the world were busy with their various jobs. Inside a square-shaped building with only one huge window and a round metal door in the middle, a small group of people were busy with their stuff. Everyone in the room was fully equipped in shiny yellow high-level mutant armor. Some of them were typing away on a computer, while some were warming up and doing some little training. A large egg-like shaped object was placed in the center of the room, and two female workers were pushing some buttons on the side of the round object. After pressing several buttons, one of the female workers placed one finger on a red switch. "We have scanned the area where the portal would appear, there is no mutant around there. Once I flip this switch, the hunting crew should prepare to go through once the portal is fully powered up!" She explained, and six sets of people in the room nodded their heads in affirmation. Once she got their reply that they understood
Back at the Iron Claw guild headquarters, the portal was fully powered up and the guild members were returning one by one. The last person to come through was a girl that none of them had seen before. "Who's this? And where's Mary?" One of the guild members standing in front of the portal asked with a look of confusion. "Mary couldn't make it" George replied. "And this is Luna, she claimed she was part of the Bladed Guild that was wiped out months ago during hunting in the red domain. She is the only survivor and has been trapped in the red domain all this while, till we found her." That was the lie Luna filled them with to gain entry. She remembered months back that a small group of people came hunting in the Souljacker's territory and she was the one who took care of them by herself. But before she killed them, she managed to get some information out of them and took their armor. That was how she knew the Guild's name. The man who asked the question began to glance at Luna from
"Would you calm the heck down and tell us what's the matter?!" Jeremy enunciated. Ever since they got back to their dorm, Ajax has been pacing around the room nonstop. After the 12 students' names were called, they were led to the VIP area where Jude Walker was. The remaining students were given the rest of the day off, meaning they could do what they liked for the rest of the day. Most students decided within themselves to go play some game and have fun, while some went to purchase food and armor. But one student among them did none of that, Ajax was trying to figure out how to get Raya out of there before the questioning commenced. The plans popping up in Ajax's head will only come to a dead end. The VIP lounge is always heavily guarded by high-graded guards and guilds, it would be impossible to sneak her out without getting caught. He also thought about fighting his way in, but he would only be exposing himself even more and sending himself to an early grave. The only thing he
