434 Fall and Rise – V
In a dark place, Asher was standing with blood all over him.
Another person appeared before him.
“Do you think you can sav-,”
Before they could speak, Asher crushed their head with his hands, as he kept moving forward.
Suddenly the pool of blood started vibrating and many human-like figures started forming.
“Fall!”
“Fall!”
“Fall into endless suffering,” A familiar voice spoke.
“You should have accepted my offer, I would have made your suffering a tad bit easier,” he said.
Asher raised his hand to crush them as hands formed out of the pool of blood stopping him.
The mana around Asher started shaking as he formed a mana pulse and shattered everything around him.
Asher wanted to keep going forward but the hands out of the pool formed again and stopped him.
Again, the light behind him, which was full of memories that Asher was moving away caught up to him.
He glanced behind as the light fell in his eyes and the scenery changed, despite his wishes to move away from this nightmare he was forced to stay and endure.
***
After taking the portal from World Academy to one of the cities of Halcyon, the students were greeted by a team of Hunters, some of them were from the World Association, and some were from the Royal Guild.
Sam who was standing there recognized the crest on some of the hunters.
His eyes wandered to a certain girl who was standing there with Elena and talking with her.
‘I guess the Princess also knows who to befriend,’ Sam chuckled in his mind.
The aloof princess of the Halcyon Royal Family has been talking to Elena Rothschild since the end of their First Year, and right now they are casual friends.
There were rumors that Elena Rothschild invited her to join their team, but Lishia politely refused as she couldn’t openly join any of the other influential people.
And there was no need as her team with Matthew was doing just fine.
“Welcome Everyone, I am Raymond, an official from the World Association,” A man wearing a suit stepped forward.
“For security reasons, all of you have to board the aircraft which will take you to the Capital City,” Raymond said.
The students looked around and there were massive aircraft that could carry many passengers at once.
“Split into the Groups of 200, and board the one allotted to you,” Raymond said.
All the students looked into their ID Bracelet, and they got the necessary details.
But the Top 100 Students got an entirely different aircraft that looked much more expensive than others.
Everyone started moving toward the aircraft allotted to them, as the Rankers were guided to a special lounge in that plane.
They had an entire luxurious section for them, and it was different than what other Top 100 Students were given.
But each of them had their section.
“Thank god, the thought of being near her is sickening,” A boy muttered as he went past Alyssa.
The others laughed while Alyssa made her way to her seat, and quietly sat on it.
The laughs of the students echoed around her, as the screams in her mind became louder and louder.
Although the voices and nightmares were something she had handled all her life, they were never this bad.After a few minutes, everyone felt the take-off as Alyssa glanced down at the beautiful city they were going above from.
But all that glimmer only made her feel nothing.
In the Special Lounge,
“So, people here use aircrafts more than portals?” Elena asked.
“Unless it’s an urgent situation,” Lishia replied.
“Portals are only used by Hunters or Merchants, not for travel purposes,” Lishia said.
“Well, I mean if the view is this good, I would love to travel by air,” Kevin said as he glanced down.
Due to being closer than other continents, Halcyon was rich in culture, and you could see that in the way the cities were designed.
Unlike Desmar, which was flooded with huge towers, Halcyon had cities that were made to appreciate the natural beauty around it.
A Continent that produced the most herbs, plants, and minerals, Halcyon was a place that was a trade hub.
“I am sure then you will also like the Capital City,” Lishia said.
Damian, who was sitting across from them, didn’t look very interested in their conversation.
But he had a clear goal in his mind this time.
‘No more feeling awkward,’ Damian told himself.
He glanced at Amelia who was talking with others, and it felt weird.
He decided to open his phone to listen to music and close his eyes, Damian was someone who could get along with anyone, but he didn’t feel that away among the people here.
Sam Allister was like Damian, but he kept quiet in a corner and while gazing out the window.
No one knew what was on his mind, but going back to the Capital, Sam clenched his fist. The Capital held something for which Sam was working so hard.
While everyone on this trip was going with different objectives, some had similar goals.
Inside the Royal Castle,
“I must thank Archduke for this help,” Leonard said.
“Don’t mind, I am only doing my part, and I hope you do yours,” Archduke Allister glanced at Leonard.
Leonard kept his smile and nodded.
“So, they are the ones that will do this mission?” Leonard looked at men wearing a black mask to cover their faces.
“Use them however you like,” The Archduke replied.
They were the special hunters who worked for the Allister Family, and they were picked carefully to follow every task given to them without raising any questions.
Although they were made up of young people, they were trained under harsh conditions.
“But remember although the Rewilh Halcyon might have allowed you to enter his Castle, don’t look down on that man,” The Archduke warned.
“I see,” Leonard replied.
“And this is the list of dungeons you asked for,”
Leonard took the sheet of paper as he looked at the names and the location.
“Remember, do everything in moderation, if the matter gets out of hand it will be hard for me to move my people to the Capital,”
After looking at the names, Leonard burned the paper by conjuring fire in his hands.
“Don’t worry about that,” Leonard replied.
After a few hours, the students landed in the Capital City where they were told to follow the guidelines and were given accommodations in a hotel near the place they landed.
The whole area was already under the control of the World Association and Royal Guild to make sure the security of the students wasn’t compromised.
“Attention Everyone, you are allowed to rest today and explore the facilities around this area, but don’t go outside the designated area for today,” Arman said.
“Tomorrow, you will be gathered here again for the main purpose of this trip,” Arman concluded his announcement.
In the World Academy,
“Hmm, this is not it either,” Asher said.
He had already decided on his report but for some reason, the testing of the potion he made wasn’t going as he planned.
“Is the solution not concentrated enough?” Asher said out loud.
Right now, he was in a special examination room where he could only contact a few staff members and Professor Fernando.
Contacting anyone other than them was not possible.
Fernando took permission from Farnus to conduct this special examination for Asher. And Asher would have been done by yesterday but the solution he was making kept failing.
The door opened as Fernando entered the room.
“I heard from the staff members you asked for me?” He spoke.
“Professor, are you sure the concentration of these solutions is right?” Asher asked.
“Yeah, I am pretty sure unless they were switched out outside of my knowledge, is there any problem with them?” Fernando asked as he raised his eyebrows.
“Can you switch them for me?” Asher said.
“Hmmm, I see, but it will take a few hours,” Fernando said.
“You can carry on, I will make sure someone delivers them,” Fernando left after saying that.
Outside the room, Fernando frowned.
“It was good that I ignored his request to see me yesterday, he figured it out too soon,” Fernando muttered.
“Well, you can try all you want but I can’t deliver these to you until tomorrow,” He muttered.
He had his hands tied, so there was nothing he could do but follow the orders he was given. And knowing all he had to do was delay one student, Fernando didn’t think much about it.
