'Guess the show still isn't over yet,' I smiled as I decided to stay back and observe for a bit more.
Adara's eyes were getting more piercing every mont and Lucas too started using more and more of his hidden skills, enough to break free from those Professors and dash towards Blaze.
Blaze looked at those two charging towards him and narrowed his eyes at them before taking a few steps back as he realised that he couldn't win against them.
'Or perhaps he thinks that he can win against them, but it won't be worth going against two of the strongest and most influential people of the Academy at once,' I thought as I observed and analysed his actions.
Adara and Hera moved towards Elizabeth and helped her stand back on her feet while Lucas just looked at Blaze and spoke,"go back. If you want to recruit her, do it the legal way and nobody would complain. Doing it this way… consider it a warning, but you won't be rely losing today."
Blaze didn't seem like he liked the way Lucas told him off and he was about to fight Lucas, but Professor Lynn and the others moved towards Blaze and whispered sothing in his ears, making him calm down a bit.
"I already know that!" spoke Blaze in a loud voice before he glared at Lucas and then moved towards the stairways as he stord off and the other professors went down along with him. The professors were reluctant to let go of Elizabeth, but even Blaze had to back down. They couldn't really hope to do much against Lucas and the others.
Now, all those who were left were Hera, Professor Christian, Adara, Lucas and Elizabeth.
I saw the others trying to comfort Elizabeth and heal her using their magic, but because of the pressure of the 8th floor, unless she were to be healed with sothing really strong, I doubt it's going to show any effects.
Thinking that I moved out of my illusion and ca in front of everyone. Sensing my sudden presence, everyone turned towards with an alard look before Lucas, Adara and Hera sighed in relief and observed with a curious look.
Professor Christian was still cautious towards while Elizabeth had the exact opposite reaction, looking at with a joyous look. I moved towards her with a smile on my face as Adara and Lucas made way for .
Initially Lucas was hesitating, but when he saw the smile on Elizabeth's face, he relaxed as he slowly gave way. Hera was already standing at a distance, curiously looking at , but unlike last ti, she didn't move to kill .
Professor Christian was the only one sceptical about getting closer to her and moved in between as he spoke,"who are you?"
"He is a friend. Don't block him," Elizabeth spoke imdiately without hesitation as she looked at Christian with a slight glare, making him more curious about .
"I am sorry, but your grandfather was strict-" he wanted to say sothing but…
"We can talk with my grandfather right now and see what he has to say," Elizabeth once again spoke with an ever so serious expression as she looked at Christian.
He was confused even more and looked at and the others. He realised that everyone here was in favour of and he was the only one standing against and after analysing the situation a bit he spoke,"all right… but if he dared to harm you in any way. I will imdiately kill him."
"You aren't capable," spoke Hera as she looked at Christian before continuing,"he can kill you even in his sleep. I can vouch for his skills."
This ti I was a bit shocked as I observed Hera. How did she know about my strength? Or is she bluffing Christian? Doesn't seem like it… then how? Don't tell it took her only one failed attempt to kill , to understand all that? Hmmm… looks like I underestimated Hera.
Christian stopped in his steps as he looked at Hera tensely before turning at and then looking at Lucas and Adara, who didn't seem like they were shocked by that.
It was as if they too believed what Hera said. This made Christian to look at with even more curiosity than before… there was more of disbelief in his eyes than curiosity, with slight shock and other emotions mixed in.
He then subconsciously moved aside as he kept observing without letting out of his sight.
I sighed at his acts before moving towards Elizabeth, touching her forehead and chanting,"Aurora of Healing," which brought her enough strength to not only stand up but also to dash towards and hug as hard as she could.
"Zero!! Thanks again for helping out. Though, I would have appreciated it more if you had helped out a bit earlier so that I could kick that bastard's ass who was looking at as if I were his trophy," she spoke all enthusiastically before letting go and I chuckled a little before speaking,
"Firstly, it's Aidan, not Zero. Secondly, I don't want to expose myself to those I don't want to know about and finally, I don't think you need any help from with all these people around you." Speaking the last line I looked around at everyone who was there to help Elizabeth out for whatever reason of their own. While everyone just looked at casually, Christian looked at with a ridicule on his face as if he couldn't believe what he just saw.
"Curious about that magic?" I asked with a bit of a mysterious smile and he nodded and I spoke in return,"I can't really teach you that sa skill but I can teach you sothing similar. Interested?"
Christian gulped a little before asking,"who are you… no forget it, just tell what do you want from ?"
Perhaps it wasn't the healing spell but the amount of mana manipulation I just showed, was what he was interested in, but…
'I think I might have skipped a few steps and acquired Christian in my bag as well.' A grin ford on my face, making Christian take a few steps away from .
