(117)Chapter 2.5.9 – A New Trio is Formed. (Part 4)

  Taniah- A-A-Alice! Wh-What about you!? Tell me your thoughts and theories about all of this. No wait, about the Geologist special class and such! Not this!

  “Ahem! I-I have nothing else to add… I, uh, my, uh, yeah…”

  Alice- I mean, my Magic Sense is not anywhere near as good as Kiana but I still was able to feel a little magic coming from the magic stone they had inside of the display. Unfortunately, not much that I can say about the rest, the only thing that caught my eye was of course Breve, I more than felt that he was there to intimidate us, to instil fear so that we couldn’t do our job properly. Although I don’t think they were expecting me to be there and that’s why they failed to do so. I have no clue what they are trying to do and much less after seeing that picture.

  Kiana- Really? He seemed like a normal guy to me. I mean, a little big but that’s it, you could easily defeat him. Not only that, I never felt he was trying to intimidate me at all although, I didn’t look at his face too much.

  Alice- Oh no, he’s definitely way bigger than your average man but, what you are forgetting is that, not only I’m close to the strongest one here, counting you to the side, I cannot say the same about the student council itself. While it more than failed to intimidate any of us, I more than believe it would work in their case. Moving on from this though, did you notice just how much they were panicking with each question from Taniah? Each time that Taniah tried to tear apart their story you could visibly see them squirm and let’s be honest, the probability of finding a cave within a cave is already for the small side then add an A rank magic stone frozen in a wall and it makes it near impossible to happen. I refuse to believe they somehow got that lucky.

  Taniah- Well, unfortunately what they said is the truth, half of it, the only thing that they didn’t report was the magic stone and I more than warned them about it. Which does lead me to believe that someone else gave them the magic stone and that they will be doing something with it. I will have to check if any other special class got their hands on a magic stone. Ah, what am I even saying? The Magic Circle class is the only one who has the tendency to request for magic stones, there is almost no point in going elsewhere.

  “So, you’re saying that, they might be related somehow? The Geologist acquires the magic stones, maybe the low-level ones since you can find them anywhere you go but, when they need stronger magic stones, they ask the Academy for it?”

  What is this? What am I hearing? What are the words coming out from Kiana's mouth? Is she…

  Sounding logical!?

  I’m joking but she's going on the right track but I will stop with my unnecessary commentary.

  Maybe…

  Taniah- That is a good way of seeing things but, without any proof we will have to put it to the side. I don’t think both classes have ever cooperated with each other what I mean is that, it seems improbable that the Geologist class acquires the magic stones and gives them to the Magic Circle class however, that does not mean that, a third party is involved after all, that “Breve” guy is not what he seems to be. Or is supposed to be in this case… Anything else that any of you want to say?

  With a simple shake of their heads, they easily tell her that they are indeed done. This time our Kiana was normal, she didn’t shake her head violently or for far too long or anything like that. Just a normal head shake.

  “Alright, it’s my turn then. But first, let’s see the pictures of the Geologist special class members one last time, maybe we have seen it wrong the first time.”

  I never mentioned this but, the pictures are not what they seem, or in this case, one of them is not. Three males, young men should be fairer and one picture of a young female student, all of them over age and yes, you heard it right, one of them was supposed to be a female, a woman and yet, there were only men inside of the room. Funny thing, said woman, her name is indeed Breve.

  Taniah- The other three male students as we can see from the pictures, not much has changed about them, it’s what I would say about them if it was not from how they are dressing currently. These pictures are two years old and as you can see, the clothes they used at that time were more modest, cheaper. However today, I cannot say the same thing as their clothes are that much more expensive. While it’s not impossible for a family to gain riches in the span of two years, I can also say that last year they were dressing similarly to the previous time. This gain of “riches”, it only happened in a span of months. Something to be on lookout but moving on. In the case of Breve, unless she has changed gender, gained quite a bit of weight, grew several centimetres, changed her voice completely and of course, the most important one, she went to the gym to gain quite a bit of muscles, this Breve is indeed not the real Breve. I also did notice what Alice was talking about, while I didn’t feel intimidated, I unfortunately cannot say about the majority of the student council.

  This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

  Alice- I think he was put in there for that purpose alone, after all, if the student council went there and because of the intimidation they were not able to properly make an inspection, it would seem that, they didn’t find anything suspicious at all and in result, leaving them all alone to do whatever they want.

  Taniah- Yep, we more than caught them off guard by simply having the two of us doing the inspection. Since I’m the President of the Student Council, that alone is enough to keep them on their toes but with Alice by my side, you can visibly see them changing their tone of voices. However, what were they thinking when they did this? Breve is just like those other three, in terms of appearance, that is, she’s nothing out of this world beauty wise but not ugly either and her personality is just like the other ones, a little awkward but a good girl in the end. Or at least that is what I thought of them, after what they might have done to her, I’m not so sure anymore. Argh, I hope nothing has happened to her... Dammit!

  She somewhat shouts at the end, as the frustration is much stronger than her will to keep composed, forcing her to let what she’s feeling into the world. Not only that, you can see that frustration and even anger in her face. She’s the President of the Student Council and yet, here’s something that has happened to one of the students that she’s supposed to take care and protect. “What happened to Breve? Is she fine? Can we save her?”. These questions quickly pop up on her mind but to all of them, she has no answer but only hopes that she will be able to do something for her.

  Alice- I think it’s better to put a search on her but, we have to do it quietly otherwise we will call their attention. I also want to hope that those three are good individuals but quite awkward and Breve is in fact on a “nice vacation” instead of being thrown to the wolves by them. If this happens to be true, I will personally do something to them.

  The look on her sharp eyes is more than enough to tell anyone that is looking at them just how serious she is, the rest of her face also matches this and with her hand grasping into itself, it’s also evident that, she’s angry and willing to bestow down to them some “punishment”, some of her justice although in this case, it really will be a beating.

  Kiana- Wouldn’t it be better to just deal with “Breve” and ask him directly?

  Alice- If you were talking about the other three then, I would agree but, in his case, do you really think that he will tell us anything at all? Don’t you remember how he was acting when we were there? He was calm, stoic, easily telling us that he's experienced in this type of stuff. I really doubt we could get anything out of him.

  Taniah- She’s right Kiana, it’s better to keep an eye on him for now and while doing so, hopefully find more evidence about all of this. If we do what you said, we are telling the rest of them that we are on their tracks and this can lead them to be more careful and if they do that, it’s all over for us.

  “A single mistake and we are done for; we cannot afford that nor I want to afford it. This is much more than I and because of it, we have to be extremely careful.”

  Taniah- Sigh… Moving on, we have discussed about the Geologist special class but we still have the other one to go. How about the Magic Circle special class? What do you guys think about it? Anything that has got your attention or were you able to find something suspicious?

  “It smelled really bad! I was dying in there!”

  Quickly and with quite the serious look on her face, Kiana lets out her amazing and well thought out thoughts into the world and with them, her suffering and despair that she felt at that time. In other words, it was a nightmare, one that she will do her best to never suffer from it ever again.

  Kiana- What were they doing in there to smell that bad? Seriously, it even had a green smoke cloud inside of it! I was mere moments from dying in there! Ma-Maybe someone did!? Oh, no! We have to save them!

  Her golden eyes are wide open but they are filled with worry. Her mouth is open and just like her mesmerizing golden eyes, they also easily express the worry behind her loud words. She has both of her hands grasping into each other, ready to save that poor soul. She means every single word and because of it, Taniah is a little surprised and shocked while Alice seems to be mere moments from actually believing Kiana.
