"Or, we can discuss this thing further.."
Jack smiled at them. He definitely was up to no good here.
Leo turned his head towards Harry. He had no idea how much truth was there in this man's words.
Was there really a possibility of them getting expelled?
Harry was not sure as well. He knew they could get in so serious trouble, if they ss with the security system.
"It's better to be safe than sorry, kiddos.." Jack said with a superior grin on his face. It made one have the urge to punch his face.
"I still don't believe you. But let's just hear what you have to say." Leo looked at him and shook his head.
"All I want is to seal this matter up. Let's just say nothing happened. You guys were injured because one of the shelves of the library collapsed on you guys."
"Let's save each other from any kind of trouble." Jack looked at them with a sincere smile.
Harry and Leo exchanged a glance.
"But, it was so big of a commotion. Are you sure you can hide it?" Leo was doubtful about his ability.
"Of course, who do you think I am? If I can hide that thing in there for so long then I can hide this incident as well."
"That creature.." Harry's face imdiately change on the ntion of it.
"What was it?" He further asked with a frown. He didn't think he would be forgetting that disgusting-looking thing anyti soon.
"It was a Zest."
"Zest?" Both Leo and Harry appeared confused. They had never heard of anything like that.
"Have you guys heard of Reapers?" Jack asked with raised brows.
That was a funny question.
Who in hell hasn't heard of those?
They were Extradinsional Creatures. They didn't originate in this Universe. At least that was the theory. After all, their origin could never be traced.
Both Leo and Harry nodded looking at Jack.
"Well, Zest is not different. Personally, I think they are even worse," Jack said with a smile.
Leo and Harry sat there looking at the guy. Their brain seed to have stopped functioning for a second there. And, the next instant, their faces turned pale.
"You d-don't an.." Leo looked at him as sweat ford on his forehead.
Didn't this an that the Universe was going to beco chaotic again?
Was war about to occur again?
The two of them were really in horror.
"A-Are we in danger once again like 30 years ago?'' Harry asked, looking at him nervously.
"Well, we are not totally worry free. But, it's not that bad where you kids need to worry about." Jack shook his head with a laugh.
"Why did you have that thing in that room? Didn't you realize how dangerous it could be? That thing doesn't even get hurt easily." Leo frowned.
"Well, I have my reason for doing what I did. And, it was not like I was expecting students to break the security system. Hell, I even make sure that the students are scared of and don't dare to co to the library."
"It went well for more than a decade and then you two had to co…" Jack looked at the two with a nacing smile on his face.
Leo and Harry didn't know what to say. Should they praise his intelligence, or be scared of his craziness?
"And, yeah. Those things are tough to kill, and to be honest almost impossible without the use of Will."
"Where did you learn to use it?" Jack asked Leo with a curious look on his face.
'Will?'
This was the second ti he had heard this. And, the first ti wasn't long ago. He had heard it in his dream as well.
"What is a Will?" Leo couldn't help, but ask him.
"Hmmn?" Jack looked at him in surprise.
'Did that b*stard not even teach his son about it? Wait! Don't tell , this kid just awakened his Will right now?'
Jack's eyes imdiately dilated.
What if the kid didn't awaken in ti?
He could clearly feel the sweat on his back. He was sure that b*stard would have gone mad.
'Well, he did awaken. I guess that b*stard owes one for awakening his kid's true potential.' Jack decided to take things positively and gave a pat on his own back.
But alas…
A Yellow Ranker with a Will…
What a waste…
Jack shook his head with a helpless smile on his face, "It's useless for you to know about such things now. You should be first trying to break your major level barrier. If you can't even break that then just forget about this thing. It will only distract you."
Leo could only sigh inwardly. This again…
"But, are you fine telling us about this? Shouldn't this information be classified? I an I haven't heard it before.." Leo looked at him with a weird look on his face.
"True, I shouldn't be saying these things to you. After all, it will lead to all sorts of trouble if people find out."
Leo and Harry's faces imdiately turned grim.
Why the hell was this guy saying it to them then?!
"Well, I guess it's more than enough…" Jack suddenly raised his hand, and looked at his smart link.
It showed a projection of an audio recording running on it.
"Well, now I have the evidence that you guys know the truth." Jack smiled happily. "You two can't deny that you don't know the truth now."
This further worsened the two's expressions.
"I really don't wanna get fired. But, I am not forcing you guys. I will just be honest and take my punshint. And, " He suddenly paused before continuing, "let all the truth out."
'This guy….'
Both Leo and Harry couldn't believe this guy.
This was blackmailing!
He was threatening to cause trouble for them, if they didn't work with him.
This guy dared to call himself a teacher!
At this mont, the door of the room suddenly opened up, and the Dean entered the room followed by another unfamiliar face.
Jack imdiately gave Leo and Harry a aningful glance. It was clearly written on his face, 'You two should know what is better for you…'
