Chapter 332: Academy is in Danger Part-1
"Where is Aether?" Aqualina bit her lip as her eyes anxiously roamed the surroundings, desperately trying to spot Aether. Her heart raced with worry and fear.She then looked at the sky, staring at the dome.... the same dome that once made her feel useless as she watched her beloved get hurt to save her.
She clenched her fists, vowing not to let this happen again. Never again would she be a helpless bystander!!
"Princess?" Kai approached Aqualina's side, a small smile on his face, "How is your team doing?"
Aqualina nodded, returning his smile softly, "They seem to have calmed down for the time being."
Kai nodded and glanced at the team. They were talking to each other calmly, though a hint of terror still lingered in their eyes.
Alaric had separated each group by year and subdivision, each taken care of by the Elite classes and the seniors of their department.
Order was being restored, but fear still hung in the air.
Kai's face turned worried as he looked at Aqualina's nape where a small spider clung. With fear and deep determination, he said, "Don't worry, Princess. I will take care of everything... even if it means dying."
Aqualina glanced at Kai for a moment before nodding. She could see his hesitation, but at least he deserved some credit. She was about to speak when,
"W-Why don't you take care of Vesperine?" Kai asked with an awkward expression, beckoning a twin-tailed yellow-haired girl. Vesperine hesitantly walked towards Aqualina, bowing respectfully. "P-Please take care of me, Princess!"
Aqualina's lips twitched in frustration. She could see what Kai was trying to achieve, and she wasn't in the mood to babysit others. "I am sorry, but my hands are already tied with a lot of responsibilities."
Vesperine's face turned awkward. Kai sighed before smiling and said, "Princess, I know you hate this... but at least give her a chance. Just for me, Princess!"
Aqualina stared blankly at Kai. She knew she needed him on her side; otherwise, she might lose Aether, who was his slave!! Not hers!
She sighed before nodding. "Just don't get in my way."
Hearing this, both Vesperine and Kai's faces lit up with happiness.
Vesperine, without hesitation, touched Aqualina's hand and said, "Let's be friends, Aqualina!"
Aqualina stared at her before glancing at Kai, who wore an awkward expression. She swatted Vesperine's hand away and said, "I don't think that's possible."
Vesperine's face turned really sad before she smiled slyly. "Even if I know the cause of this doom?"
"V-Vesp?" Kai's face turned to dread. He couldn't believe what she had just told Aqualina. It was a secret they had discovered during their 'talk' in the building.
'Is she going to tell that?' Kai's face was horrified. He could not allow that to happen!
Meanwhile,
"Go on," Alaric commanded with indifferent eyes, looking at the guard who reluctantly approached the dome. With hesitation, the guard reached out to touch the dome.
BOMFF!
His head splattered!
The other guards' faces turned dreadfully pale as they looked at Alaric with fear.
Alaric wasn't just going to believe the mysterious mechanical voice, so he used the guards as test subjects and found that the mechanical voice's warnings were true. Destroying the dome was not an option he could consider.
He couldn't bet the lives of thousands of students on a test!
The other guard waited for their end but then,
He ordered some guards to watch over the students while others
THUNDER!!
