After paying the bill Alec walked outside the restaurant with a sigh. He fiddled with his storage ring.
'I have a lot of precious things but I don't have money. Why am I so poor? It seems I need to sell so.'
The trio which was previously nowhere to be seen jumped out from their hiding spots. They looked at each other and started laughing.
Alec heard their laughter and turned around to his left. His expression was solemn because the three of them were laughing while standing behind a stall in front of the restaurant.
"You all tricked to pay the whole bill!"
He shouted and approached the trio with narrowed eyes.
The crowd around them stopped and looked at them after hearing Alec shout.
Nine wiped his nonexistent tears while looking at Alec's displeased face.
"Bro we are all poor. You are the only one who is rich!"
He made a pitiful expression and patted Alec's shoulder who was fuming.
Carcel chuckled but he instantly followed behind Nine footsteps and wore a sad expression.
"Sigh, I forgot to bring money as well."
Kyle blinked his eyes with a smile. He was going to say sothing dramatic as well but then he noticed the crowd gathering around them. It was only for a mont but his eyes traced a few robbed n among the crowd.
His facial expression didn't change but he was anxious inside.
"Guys, let's leave."
The trio stopped joking and looked at Kyle. They instantly noticed the crowd slowly gathering around them.
It was strange. They didn't make a big commotion but for so reason, the people were trying to surround them.
Alec frowned. He nodded and they instantly tried to leave the area but for so reason, three middle-aged man wearing black robes left the crowd and blocked their path.
Alec's expression turned dark. He stared coldly at them.
"Move."
His voice was cold but the individuals blocking his path didn't even budge from their location instead four more individuals erged from the crowd blocking their path from each direction.
With gritted teeth, Alec stepped back. He couldn't sense the aura of the people surrounding them.
'They are stronger than .'
Nine, Carcel, and Kyle looked at each other with grim expressions. They instantly took out their weapons and stood beside Alec.
All four of them were ready to fight if anyone attacked them.
One of the robbed n standing in front of them scoffed when he saw them taking out their weapons. He opened his mouth to say sothing but suddenly his hair stood up and he imdiately jumped back.
All the individuals surrounded Kyle and the others also panicked. A heavy pressure descended from the sky before an old voice resounded inside everyone's ears.
"You think if you cleverly set up an array around the kids I will not sense your despicable presence."
One of the black robbed n gulped nervously. He was the one who set up an Array around the restaurant to avoid getting caught but it seed his trap failed and he ssed up very badly.
Alec gazed at the trembling individuals before looking at Kyle, Nine, and Carcel. Unlike everyone else, the four of them were perfectly fine.
The trembling individuals started sweating as the pressure around them beca too hard to bear. The old voice scoffed.
"It's bold of you all to attack soone in my territory. The worst part is you are trying to attack my students."
"I will not do anything this ti because I can sense so familiar auras. Tell your masters if they sent soone here again then don't bla for being rciless."
"Leave before I kill you all!"
The robbed man gritted his teeth and his figure blurred as he disappeared in a random direction. The others also disappeared in various directions.
The crowd imdiately ran in many different directions. Soon, except for Alec and the trio no one else was present around the restaurant. Even the normal custors sitting inside the restaurant fled because of the sudden pressure.
Alec was dazed when the old voice resounded again.
"You rascals! I just returned a week ago and soone's already causing trouble. Return to the Academy right now or you will have to run around the training ground naked!"
Alec gulped down when he heard the word 'naked'. It seed the voice belonged to one of the strong individuals present inside the Academy. He turned around to look at the others while speaking nervously.
"Let's go back..."
His sentence was cut short because he was standing alone. Alec instantly looked at the fading trio that was already running toward the Academy without even glancing at him.
Alec was stunned. He wondered why he was always the last one to run.
"Damn it!"
With a curse, he followed behind Kyle, Nine, and Carcel who were already far away.
After running for half an hour, they left the market and arrived in front of the Academy gate. Normally even if they ran with all their might it would have taken them at least forty minutes but because they were scared of the word 'naked' they arrived a lot earlier.
Kyle was panting heavily as he glanced at the only guard standing outside the Academy gate. The trio was standing beside him with heavy breathing.
The guard looked at them with a confused expression. It looked like they just escaped from a life and death crisis. He rembered them because of Alec and Carcel's gorgeous appearance. Also, they left a few hours ago to do a mission.
"Kids, is everything alright?"
Nine gazed at the guard with a deadly serious expression.
"We are not fine at all please hurry open the gate!"
"Huh?"
The guard blinked his eyes he even looked at their backs to see if soone was chasing behind them but he didn't see anyone. However, he opened the gate to let them in after seeing their desperate expressions.
Only after stepping inside the Academy did Kyle and the others sigh with relief.
They looked at each other. It was the first ti they went out together to have fun and maybe it is going to be the last one as well because the experience wasn't great at all.
