n“What happened to him?”

n“I don’t know, he lost consciousness the moment he entered the place”

n“Hmmm”

nBlake looked at the unconscious Grey the man held in his arms.

nSeeing Grey’s identification, the instructor took Grey to Blake the moment he lost consciousness.

n“Okay, you can leave now”

nBlake said before taking Grey in another direction.

nSome moments later…

nChris looked at the unconscious Grey and couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

n“Leave”

nBlake dropped Grey on the bed before heading out of the room.

n“Although his injuries are bad, it’s not a challenge since he’s still alive”

nChris said as he placed his hand on the body of the unconscious Grey.

nBlake stood outside the room and saw a white light flash in the room. He squinted his eyes and looked on with interest.

n‘So the rumors are true, he truly is a Light Elementalist’

nBlake had always known Chris for his Dual Elements which are fire and wind, but there was this one time he heard a rumor among the higher-ups in the Academy when he just became the head instructor of the Lightning Hall. It was said Chris was a Multi Elementalist, he not only had the fire and wind element, but he also had the extremely rare Light element.

nAlthough the rumor has been on for a long time, it still hasn’t been confirmed.

nBack at the alley

nThe girl managed to stand up and picked up her dagger which Grey managed to remove from his shoulder before leaving. The injury in her back was painful, but that was the least of her issues right now. She was still replaying what happened in her mind.

n‘How did he dodge it?’

nGiven her experience, she knew her target couldn’t evade from that distance. After careful thinking, she recalled something.

n‘I froze’

nNow she knew the cause, she froze when the dagger was about to pierce through Grey’s chest. Even though it wasn’t up to a second, it was enough for Grey to move so his vitals wouldn’t be hit.

nIt was something that some people might not even notice since it felt like she was paused just before the dagger hit.

nShe quickly left the place and went back with a confused mind.

nThe only student who wasn’t struck by the attack first stared in the direction Grey fled towards, before staring in the direction of the figure who appeared out of nowhere and almost killed Grey who has also left the alley.

nThe student whose arm was detached screamed in pain on seeing his arm a couple of meters away from where he was sitting. Only the Water Elementalist who was the strongest of the group wasn’t badly hurt, but he was still bleeding from his hands nonetheless.

nHe looked at his comrades and couldn’t help but feel a little twinge of regret, but since he wasn’t the one whose arm was detached, he quickly got over it.

n“Get him up, we should head back and report this to the instructors. Those bastards from the Lunar Academy sneaked attacked us”

nHe said gritting his teeth.

nThey all thought it was a sneak attack since they didn’t see Grey attacking. But they were all still surprised they didn’t see or even sense the presence of the students who attacked them.

nThe student whose arm was detached picked up his arm with his other hand and the more he was looking at the arm, the more rage, hatred, regret, and tears were flowing from his eyes. This was not how it was supposed to end, they would have beaten Grey badly or even killed him. But now, Grey escaped, although injured, he escaped. They on the other hand got multiple injuries, and he got it worse with one of his arm cut off his body.

n*************

nOn getting to the residence designated for the Starlight Academy, the students rushed over to their instructors and told them about the attack they faced, with the injuries they sustained, it wasn’t hard for the instructors believed it completely. Of course, they said they were sneaked attacked by the students from the Lunar Academy when they were on their way home.

nThe instructors knew they were lying, but they didn’t really care. This was an opportunity for them to get rid of Grey. According to the students, Grey was the one who blocked their path, when they tried reasoning with him, the other students attacked from behind, they didn’t see the others and Grey was the only one they saw.

nThe instructors dismissed them before starting a meeting.

n“They’ll have to hand over that brat to us if they don’t want to start a war”

n“Such audacity, to think they had the guts to attack our students in the city. This is breaking the rules of the city, we should report this to the emperor if they refuse to hand over the boy and his accomplices to us”

nThe instructors of the Starlight Academy starting planning on which actions to take.

n***********

nBack to the Lunar Academy

nChris walked out of the room and glanced at Blake who was seemingly lost in thoughts.

n“What are you thinking about?”

nBlake was startled and looked at Chris. He couldn’t help himself anymore and asked,

n“Are you also a Light Elementalist?”

nChris’s facial expression didn’t change before he asked,

n“Why are you asking if you already know?”

nThis statement was the confirmation Blake needed to affirm his eyes didn’t play any tricks on him. He couldn’t help but look at Chris again, he had always felt great respect towards this man who had an eccentric character, now he found out he was not just a Dual Elementalist, but a Multi Elementalist. The shocking fact of it all was that his last element was one of the two extremely rare elements, the Light element.

nAlthough Lightning Elementalists were rare, compared to Light and Darkness Elementalists, they could be said to be very plentiful.

nLight Elementalist are known for their extreme speed, but that isn’t their most special attribute, they had the unique skill of healing. The Light element had a special trait, Life Force energy.

nWith this, they can be said to be the best healers given their special ability. But don’t be deceived by the fact that they are good healers, the Light element is known to also have terrifying attack power.

nJust like the Light Element, the Darkness Element also had the special attribute of corrosion, it can corrode almost everything, and it is regarded as one of the most, if not the most terrifying attacking element there is.

nBlake finally came back to himself after being lost in thoughts once again,

n“How’s Grey?”

n“He should be fine, a little sleep and he will be back to new”

nBlake saw Grey’s state when he brought him here, so when he heard this, he couldn’t help but be shocked. He expected Grey to take at least two weeks or so to heal, but now, Chris said a little sleep and he would be as good as new, who wouldn’t be shocked when they heard something like that?

n“You should keep your mouth shut about what you saw today”

nBlake nodded, he didn’t have any plans of telling anyone, okay, maybe he might tell her, but he wouldn’t tell any other person.

n“By the way, what happened to him?”

nChris asked, because Grey was badly injured when Blake brought him in, he didn’t ask what happened and just started healing him outright. But now that Grey was alright, he wanted to know what happened.

n“I don’t know, the instructor guarding the place brought….”

nBlake told Chris what the instructor told him.

n“Hmm, guess we’ll have to wait for Grey to wake up before we can know what happened”

n“Yes, that’s the only solution”

nThe next morning

nGrey opened his eyes and looked around, he didn’t recognize the place so he panicked a little, but on remembering he saw an instructor, he guessed he should at least be within the residence.

nHe subconsciously touched his shoulder where he was stabbed but was shocked when he couldn’t feel anything.

n‘Was I dreaming?’

nHe asked himself, he clearly remembered being stabbed by someone in black yesterday, or was it the day before, he didn’t really know since he didn’t know how long he was unconscious.

nBut the injury miraculously disappeared, not just that one, even the other ones were nowhere to be found also.

n‘What’s happening?’

nHe got to his feet and walked out of the room, on getting to the courtyard outside the room, he surprisingly saw Chris sitting.

n“Teacher”

nChris turned and looked at his coo… ahem, student.

n“How are you feeling?”

nGrey checked his body again just to be sure before replying

n“Fine, I feel great in fact”

nChris nodded

n“Good, good. Now tell me, what happened to you yesterday?”

n‘So it wasn’t a dream. But, how did my injuries disappear within the space of a single night?’

nGrey went on to tell Chris about what happened with the students from the Starlight Academy. Chris squinted his eyes and a cold light flashed past it.

n“Hmph, those people are just like pests, they need to be exterminated”

nChris said icily, he was already fed up with what was going on with the Starlight Academy, they were lucky he was not the principal, or he would have already destroyed them already. He definitely didn’t give a ** about what the emperor was going to say.

nChris took Grey over to the instructors so he would explain what happened the previous night.

nWhile Grey was still in the process of explaining what happened, the instructors were already all turning red from rage when a loud voice traveled to the meeting room.

n“Where is the student called Grey?”

nThe speaker made sure to enhance his voice to ensure everyone in the residence heard it. Even the people who were walking heard this and all curiously stopped on their tracks and looked at what was going on.

n“Aren’t those people from the Starlight Academy?”

n“Yeah, but why are they yelling in front of the residence of the Lunar Academy”

n“I don’t know, but it would be interesting”

nDifferent conversations broke out, the instructor who yelled smirked inside. This was the result he wanted.

nThe principal, instructors, and the students who resided in the place all came out and looked at the group who were floating in the air outside the gate.

nGrey was behind Chris when they walked out, he stared at the group with cold eyes.

nKlaus and Reynolds were already back from the Jade Water Paradise so on hearing Grey’s name being mentioned, they rushed outside their rooms.

n“What are you doing here?”

nThe head instructor from the Fire Hall asked coldly.

n“A student from your Academy attacked our students yesterday, and one of the students is almost dead and even lost an arm. We want you to hand the student over to us so we can punish him appropriately”

nThe man said confidently

nThe instructors from the Lunar Academy all looked at him like he was a fool, did he really think they would hand over their student to him?. They didn’t even have the strength to bother with him, arguing with people whose brains weren’t functioning properly was too tiring.

nThe crowd was finally able to get the gist of the whole issue, it seems a student from the Lunar Academy attacked the students from the Starlight Academy and even successfully injured them badly.

n“You should leave, people from the Starlight Academy are not welcomed here”

nOliver said calmly, he was already holding himself back from unleashing an attack towards the group.

n“We came here for the student and also an explanation, we are not leaving until we have both. Also…”

nThe man suddenly stopped talking and a scene that stunned everyone present played out. The man who was still in the middle of his speech was sent flying by a slap from someone who suddenly appeared beside him.

nThe rest of the group from the Starlight Academy looked in the direction the man flew to, and couldn’t help but feel a chill run down their spines.

n“I don’t like him, he should’ve just left when he was told to”

nChris said with a shrug before he returned to his previous position like nothing happened.

n‘Teacher is so overbearing’

nGrey looked at the man in front of him and his respect for him increased to a new level.
