Chapter 470: 78 How did you manage to survive until now (5K)_3
Silence, a long silence.
Raul stood quietly beneath the eternal notes, his expression unchanged, yet the oppressive atmosphere left everyone present feeling breathless.
A mont ago, he seed to be the new ruler of the academy, commanding the two major families of Taichu.
But now, everything returned to its original state.
“Unexpected.” He spoke softly, “After so many years, the two families of Taichu are still like this, no progress at all. No wonder the principal always looks down on them, right, Phinis?”
Raul seed to be casually chatting with Phinis, but Phinis didn’t dare to respond lightly, as he felt that Raul at this mont was like a lion suppressing its fury, and he didn’t want to provoke him.
Fortunately, Raul held back because he knew that getting angry now wouldn’t be useful and would only bring more uncertainty.
“Long ago, the principal once told that a qualified player should not be influenced by anyone or anything, just focus on their own path.” Raul approached the tuner placed in the center of the hall, putting his hand on his shoulder, “Rember this, Mr. Phinis, it’s the truth.”
Phinis nodded slightly, “I will rember.”
Raul smiled, clearly adjusting his mood.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen to you tonight,” he said casually, “I can assure you.”
“Of course, Dean.” Phinis responded with a smile, “I trust you.”
This wasn’t re flattery, but not entirely accurate either.
Phinis indeed believed, but not in Raul — rather, in the Holy Sound Master.
As ti passed, they gradually began to hear the lody of the last outer song.
The lody slowly entered the hall, lighting up the outermost eternal notes.
The players present felt the notes within them responding uncontrollably to this power.
The Holy Sound Master was about to awaken.
It was summoned by this once-in-twenty-years musical wind to appreciate his unique festivity.
But before that,
This wind belonged to Raul.
He stood at the array eye, feeling the power symbolizing the Holy Sound Master infiltrating his body through every pore, extending his power and senses rapidly.
Every player’s chapters in the hall were clearly visible.
The eternal notes above the hall seed to be held in his hands.
This is… the power of the master.
Raul gradually clenched his fist.
Almost completed.
At this mont, he was… hmm?
Raul’s peripheral vision caught a figure rushing out from the first inner song’s orchestra and charging straight at him.
…Hewinia?! When did she co in?!
Raul couldn’t see clearly yet, but his body instinctively reacted, swiftly pulling out his magic wand and pointing it at her.
A beam of light shot out from the wand.
Instantly knocked her away, she fell into the eternal notes like a leaf blown away by the wind, blood scattering everywhere.
“Heh, the target is still here?” Raul squinted slightly and then slowly walked towards the figure he knocked away, “Though I don’t know how you got in here, but…”
Halfway through his sentence, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he quickly turned, pointing his wand at Phinis nearby.
Phinis’ attention was already on Raul, and seeing him suddenly turning and pointing the wand at him was shocking, not knowing why Raul intended to attack him.
No, Raul had no reason to attack him.
It could only be…
He turned his head sharply and, sure enough, saw a pair of cold eyes and a rapidly descending magic scythe.
“Splurt.”
Phinis’ entire chest was torn open.
…
“Drip,” “drip.”
Blood dripped from his chest onto the ground.
Phinis gasped heavily, eyes filled with fear.
Just barely, just barely avoided.
The scythe of death almost took him away.
If not for Raul’s quick reaction, he would’ve been a corpse by now.
“Alright, Mr. Phinis, let your people take you away.” Raul stood in front of him, looking at Hewinia not far away, who had transford her wand into a scythe with magical power, “Leave the rest to .”
Phinis opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing but couldn’t.
The Lawrence Family mbers imdiately helped him up and headed towards the hall’s exit.
During this, Phinis glanced at Hewinia.
Even now, Phinis found it hard to believe she was the harmless green tea girl he always thought.
Those eyes, especially the left one, a re glance with it robbed him of any courage to confront.
Why… is it like this?
Clearly, their Lawrence Family,
ought to be the protagonist of this festivity.
What exactly did they do wrong?
Phinis wanted to scream, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood gushed out again, ultimately unable to make a sound, like a dead dog dragged away.
Only Hewinia and Raul remained in the scene.
“Though I want to comnd you for your combat approach of weaponizing notes and wand to avoid detection.”
Raul spoke slowly, his sensing ability further enhanced with the help of the eternal notes, able to clearly feel Hewinia’s every note resonance, heartbeat, and even each breath.
Thus, he had doubts.
“This body of yours…” He gazed at Hewinia’s eyes, “how did it survive till now?”
