"So, what we do now?” (Lorelei) “Alright, we’ll be training on our own here with Lorelei and you guys can go wild however you want.” (Jin grabbed Lorelei’s arm as they arrived on their dedicated area) “Can you not grab my hand? Don’t think you’re a match for me just because Mr. Leon decided to group us.” (Lorelei said as she takes her arm out of Jin’s hand, glaring at him) “You know, I can say the same thing to you.” (Jin) “What?” (Lorelei) “Do you think I’ve been fooling around just because I’ve disappeared in the rankings? I just had other things to take care of on our house so I’ve been absent for quite a while. I already had Mr. Leon’s permission as I was already a falling leaf before he deemed you as one.” (Jin) “I see… though I have my own situation back home so I couldn’t really see Seiya in action.” (Lorelei muttered) “So technically, I’m your senior here.” (Jin) Both of them realized something. “Since you were here before Seiya, does that mean-” (Lorelei) “I’m still a senior and he’s a junior, got it?” (Jin) “Why are you so worked up, it’s not like we’re not grouped because we are of similar level aren’t we?” (Lorelei rationally deduced the meaning of the grouping) A pale face, sweating profusely while shaking lightly is what Jin had become. What came flooding was the memories of what he witness during Seiya and Alice’s fight in the riverside. “Y-Yeah, we can probably last for 10 seconds… with Alice that is.” (Jin) “Man, I didn’t know Alice could improve that much.” “But wait, isn’t she training with Seiya? Does that mean-” (Lorelei) “Yeah.” (Jin briefly answered, as if it was an established fact already) “Honestly… I know you’re listening there so let us in.” (Jin) [Independent Space] The two of them were transported inside of Alice’s training area. “Spacial magic, I was convinced she managed to widen the gap between us again but it wasn’t to this point.” (Lorelei) “Hey! Timeout! Timeout!” “I was transporting Jin and Lorelei so can you tone it down a bit first?!” (Alice shouted while getting chased around by Seiya, with her tracksuit tattered) “3 seconds, alright. Hit me within 30 seconds, I won’t move.” (Seiya stopped, and decided to sit down while provoking Alice) “30 seconds it is.” (Alice) “Hey Alice, I want next! Can I have a tur-” (Lorelei tried to interrupt, thinking of facing with Seiya next) “Trail of the Dragon Lord.” An inferior version of Lei’s spell, way back from chapter 1. Though deemed as cheap imitation by Lei, it’s firepower might as well be able to vaporize a whole town. She conjured the of them, all aimed at the sitting Seiya. “Alice, are you trying to destroy your independent space?” (Seiya asked wearing a worried face) Alice halted her spell. “It’s okay, I had Lei set up a barrier outside the independent space. I could go all out.”(Alice) “Huh? They stopped. What are they talking about?” (Lorelei) “What about them?”(Seiya) “I don’t know, protect them or something. Might as well protect them while you’re just sitting there doing nothing, right?” (Alice insists, looking at Seiya maliciously) “Alright, wait, I’m going to try something.” (Seiya) Seiya focused for a couple of seconds, and a barrier formed around Jin and Lorelei. “I think we’re all set here, fire away however you want.” (Seiya) Alice paused for a moment, and snapped her fingers. [Magiboost: Tenfold] With her spell cast, her prepared spells were maximized in their output up to Alice’s limit. The colors became more vivid as the concentration of mana increased to unimaginable heights. “Are you seeing this, Lorelei? This Alice is leagues above to what version of her I was saying we could only last 10 seconds with.” (Jin) [Trail of the Dragon Lord] Upon taking the spell head-on, the independent space shattered, returning the four of them to the real world. Through Lei’s barrier, the damages were kept minimum. The dust cloud clears up. Seiya was there just smiling, like someone just tried to tease him with a finger flick. Sitting like a thug trying to be cool and all. “For a first time using external qi without any physical control system, not too shabby. Isn’t that right, master Sei?” (Seiya asked Sei, full of confidence) “This kid…” (Sei) “Should I have just used the black hole spell on this bastard?” (Alice annoyingly asked Lei) “Well, with that boasting face inherited from a certain someone, you definitely should have.” (Lei looked at Sei, as if it was a mother scolding her husband for letting their son do stupid things on his watch) “Did we almost lose our lives because of someone trying to show off a move they thought of out of the blue?” (Jin slowly faced Lorelei after witnessing a literal disaster unfold from a fight between their two classmates) “I see… I think training with you wouldn’t be that bad after all.” (Lorelei) “I mean… I could’ve revived them if they were to die.” (Lei) “That is not the point here, Lei.” (Sei looked at Lei like she was a clueless child) “Let’s stop for now I’m thirsty, I bet you are too.” (Alice) Alice and Seiya both looked at Jin and Lorelei. “I’ve been inconsiderate just now, my bad. You could practice inside my barrier, here.” (Seiya) [Qi Control: Barrier] Seiya conjured up a barrier the size of the whole training ground. After retrieving his drinks with Alice’s, they watched a spar of Jin and Lorelei. “The more I see these fights the more I think this was all just to hype them up. The inter school competition would definitely just be a stage for the both of them.” (Lorelei sighed realizing the cold hard truth) “You hear that? I think it’s time for them to get some fair competition.” (Lei) “I agree, the two of them seems to be on their high horses lately. A nerf would be a good experience, as well as practical approach for endurance training.” (Sei) Days had gone by, the training routine of the awakened class continued in preparation of the competition. … “Finally, I could let loose on these humans~” (???) “No! Please, don’t kill me!” (???) “Calm down dude, I’m excited too. Don’t go around killing them for now, we’ll have our time. Oh how desperate their faces will be. It’s… utterly magnificent~” (???) “Who- what are you?!” (???) “What… are we? I’m just a piece of livestock, though if that was the case then you’re nothing more than a fly flocking around my shit.” (???) … The next day, a man was reported dead within a forest. His body viciously mutilated, hung on a branch. Blood dripping from his torn to half body. A disaster is approaching.
