"Ms. Caral, I did exactly as you asked! Now, you'll hold my hand, as per the deal, right?" the boy asked, practically bouncing with excitent.
Caral waved him off without even looking at him. "We'll talk about that later. First, I need to make her mine!"
Maruti's eyebrow twitched.
"You crazy psycho! Do you *want* to beat you up, huh?" she snapped, her fists clenching.
But instead of being scared, Caral's lips curled into an unsettling, twisted smile.
"Yes, that's it… your voice is just too alluring," she whispered, her eyes gleaming with excitent. "Scold all you want after we beco one!"
Suddenly, the spiral-shaped scar on her forehead moved.
Srrrr…
A chilling sound echoed as the spiral actually started rotating, like a real black hole forming on her forehead.
Then—
Her eyes started twisting inside that spiral, spinning rapidly before sinking deeper and deeper… and finally—
They disappeared.
It was beyond creepy.
Maruti, who had been ready to punch Caral a mont ago, imdiately changed her mind.
"Yeah… nope. I'm out of here!" she thought.
Without wasting another second, she bolted.
She turned on her heel and ran at full speed, leaving Caral and the boy behind in the dust.
Caral, watching her escape, gritted her teeth.
"I told you not to make use force!" she scread in frustration.
But Maruti didn't care. She wasn't stopping.
Caral took a deep breath and then raised her hand.
"Everyone, follow Maruti and bring her to !" she commanded.
And then—
Dozens of students suddenly ca out of hiding.
Their eyes were wide with obsession as they charged after Maruti, chasing her like maniacs.
Caral ran too, and for so reason, her speed was insanely fast.
As they got closer to the academy's garden area, Caral shouted, "Catch Maruti and bring her to !"
"Ms. Caral is giving us an order! We must obey!" one girl yelled.
"I would even die for my goddess!" another scread.
"Maruti, just surrender already!" so of them shouted as they ran after her.
Maruti glanced back and saw the horde of students coming after her with crazy eyes.
Her face twisted in frustration.
"Tch… Yeah, nope. I'm not dealing with this shit. I should just go tell the teachers!"
As Maruti was just about to enter the hallway, a boy with weird, fluffy hair suddenly leaped at her from the side.
His mouth was wide open, his red eyes filled with madness—he looked like so kind of zombie.
Bam!
Without hesitation, Maruti lifted her leg and kicked him straight in the stomach.
The boy flew backward like a broken doll, crashing into the wall with a loud thud—he looked like a painting stuck on the surface.
But before she could take another step—
"Wind Blade!"
A girl appeared right at the entrance, casting a spell in Maruti's direction.
However—
Before the girl could even finish her chant, Maruti lunged forward and punched her directly in the face.
Crack!
The girl's front teeth shattered instantly, and she collapsed onto the floor, unconscious.
Maruti didn't even glance back.
Her speed was too fast for anyone to catch her.
She dashed through the corridor, dodging every obstacle in her way.
Then, by sheer luck—
She spotted two female teachers walking ahead, chatting casually.
A relieved smile spread across her face.
She slid toward them, stopping right in front.
"Teacher! A girl from Class B has awakened as an Anomaly-Class!" she said, panting.
Both teachers' expressions darkened imdiately.
"What?!"
"First the Wolfman incident, and now this?! You better not be joking!" one of them said in a panic.
But then—
Her eyes widened in horror.
A massive horde of students was charging down the hallway—so were even running on all fours.
At the front—
Leading them—
Was Caral.
The teacher with a bow instantly pulled out her weapon, ready to shoot.
"You! Stop this at once!" she commanded, aiming directly at Caral's head.
But the mont she got a clear look at Caral's face—
Sothing changed.
Both teachers' pupils suddenly shifted.
Their golden irises twisted into heart shapes—completely filled with love.
"So… beautiful!" they gasped in unison.
Caral's lips curved into a wicked smirk.
"Whoever brings Maruti to , I'll give them a kiss!" she announced.
Silence.
Utter, absolute silence.
And then—
The teachers turned back to Maruti, their eyes burning with desire.
"I'd even kill my parents for that kiss! Hahaha!" the archer teacher cackled like a lunatic.
Maruti's jaw dropped.
"So even the teachers aren't safe?!"
Whoosh!
An arrow whizzed past her head, destroying the wall behind her.
Maruti barely dodged in ti.
"You're mine now!" the second teacher yelled, pulling out a massive axe before charging straight at her.
Both of them were C-Rank Awakened.
Their strength was no joke.
Maruti quickly activated her skill.
"Turn Phantom!"
The axe passed through her body like she was a ghost.
Without wasting a second, she ran.
"There's no point fighting them. I need to take out Caral, but… what if she has a trump card?"
It was too risky to fight blindly.
Instead—
She darted into a nearby classroom, rushing straight to the window.
Without hesitation—
She jumped!
Her body soared high into the air, flipping gracefully—
And she landed directly on the second floor.
Everyone below froze in shock.
Maruti didn't stop to enjoy their confusion.
She sprinted forward, moving swiftly and silently like a shadow.
"I need to hide in soone's room. If I wait it out, soone else will notice Caral and deal with her!"
With that plan in mind—
She disappeared into the darkness, her footsteps making no sound at all.
-------------
anwhile, on both the ground and upper floors, dozens of students were running around frantically, searching every corner for Maruti.
On the ground floor, Caral stood in the middle of the hallway.
Her sharp eyes darted around, scanning the area.
Behind her stood the two Rank C teachers—the archer and the axe-wielder.
For now, they were her strongest bodyguards.
But then—
Sothing completely unexpected happened.
"Haiya…!"
Out of nowhere, a figure ca flying through the air—
And the next second—
BAM!
Her foot slamd directly into the axe-wielding teacher's face!
The impact was so strong that the teacher was sent crashing into the wall, breaking through it and disappearing inside the room.
Dust and debris filled the hallway.
Caral and the archer teacher stared at the attacker, completely dumbfounded.
Standing before them was a tall woman with a well-toned yet curvy body, brown hair, and sharp brown eyes.
She looked like an older version of Maruti.
It was none other than Kaya—the academy's fitness instructor.
Swish!
The archer teacher snapped back to her senses and imdiately shot an arrow at Kaya.
But—
Without even flinching, Kaya casually caught the arrow mid-air with her bare hand.
Not even a scratch.
Her gaze sharpened as she looked at Caral.
A strange neon green aura was oozing out of the girl's body.
"An Anomaly, huh? No wonder I was confused about why the students were attacking ," Kaya muttered to herself.
Unlike most people, she was completely unaffected by Caral's charm ability.
"Attack her!" Caral shouted in frustration.
The archer teacher quickly pulled back her bowstring, preparing another shot.
But before she could release it—
Kaya vanished from her spot in a blur—
And in the next mont—
She grabbed the teacher's leg and, with a powerful dash, swung her like a ragdoll—
Sending her flying down the hallway.
But she didn't stop there.
Using the montum—
She twisted her body mid-air and delivered a crushing kick straight to Caral's face!
The force behind the kick was enough to completely blow her head off—an instant kill.
But then—
Nothing happened.
Not even a scratch.
Even Caral herself looked shocked.
Kaya narrowed her eyes.
"Physical attacks don't work, huh?" she snorted, realizing the issue.
Caral blinked in surprise—then her lips curled into a delighted smirk.
"So… physical attacks don't work on !" she muttered, amazed by her own ability.
But despite her excitent—
Sweat dripped down her forehead.
Kaya was dangerous.
She knew that if she stayed here any longer, she would be dood.
"I need to get out of here!" Caral thought, her heart racing.
anwhile, Kaya infused mana into her legs, preparing for another devastating kick.
But—
She was too late.
Caral let out a soft chuckle—
And the next second—
Her body began to sink into the wall.
Like a ghost, she rged with the surface, her entire form fading into nothingness.
In the blink of an eye—
She was gone.
Kaya lowered her leg and clicked her tongue.
"Huh? Now what? How the hell am I supposed to find her?" she muttered in annoyance.
--------------
At the girls' washroom area, inside one of the stalls, Maruti was quietly sitting on the toilet seat.
Of course, she wasn't actually using the washroom.
She was hiding.
A mischievous and prideful grin stretched across her face.
"Hehe… Everyone is searching for all over the dorm rooms, but here I am, hiding in the washroom. I guess I'm just too smart for them! Hahaha!" she chuckled to herself, feeling proud.
But then—
Sothing strange started happening.
A grey, jelly-like substance began materializing on the floor right in front of her.
Maruti blinked, confused.
"Huh? What's this?" she muttered, tilting her head.
Curious, she stood up and bent down to get a closer look.
The strange grey jelly kept growing, becoming darker and thicker.
Then, all of a sudden—
A hand burst out of it and grabbed Maruti's neck!
"The hell?!" Maruti gasped, her eyes widening.
She tried to stand up and escape, but the hand had already wrapped tightly around her throat, keeping her in place.
And then—
Caral's head started rising from the floor.
Then her shoulders.
Then her stomach.
She smirked, her big spiral-shaped scar rotating with excitent.
"I finally found you," she whispered, tightening her grip on Maruti's neck.
Before Maruti could even struggle—
Caral suddenly leaned in—
And pressed her lips tightly against hers.
Maruti's eyes shot open in shock.
Caral's soft, warm lips lted against her own, and then—
Her tongue slipped inside.
She kissed her deeply—hungrily—like she had been waiting for this mont forever.
Saliva mixed as Caral's tongue danced inside Maruti's mouth.
The kiss was full of passion, filled with raw desire.
It was long.
It was intense.
It felt like it would never end.
But Maruti wasn't just going to sit there and let it happen.
Summoning all her strength, she finally pushed Caral away.
She stumbled back, panting, her back hitting the wall.
Her face was completely red,not because of embarrassnt but because se was very angry now.
She wiped her lips aggressively.
Caral, on the other hand, looked completely satisfied.
A dreamy smile spread across her face.
"I finally got my first kiss from my honey!" she sighed in pure happiness.
