Chapter 41: Mutation
Chapter 41: Mutation
After a while Professor Aliza entered the classroom, ceasing the countless chattering of the students.
As usual, her expression was cold and her long black hair was tied in a ponytail.
Gazing at all the familiar faces present inside, she stood on the stage while holding the attendance sheet.
Her eyes briefly paused at Kyle and a small frown appeared on her beautiful face.
'He returned.'
But she didn't say anything to Kyle or anyone else and started calling out names from the attendance sheet.
Yesterday after getting too angry at Kyle who has been absent for four consecutive days, Aliza left the Academy to find out what he was doing.
But after reaching Nyan city and seeing the condition of Kyle's family she was worried.
'He didn't tell anyone, he could have asked for help from the Academy?.'
What made Aliza annoyed was that one of her students was going through a hard time but he wouldn't even share it with the Academy.
Also just how is he going to find the 'Elixir of life' which even she hadn't seen in her life?
But despite experiencing such a setback in life Kyle was wearing a calm expression.
Aliza couldn't help but praise his bearing.
She sighed, because she couldn't help him if he didn't ask.
The only thing Aliza could do was to ask the Vice Principal to look for the Elixir of life, but she knew even for the Vice Principal finding the Elixir in 8 months was an impossible task.
After taking attendance, Aliza started her lecture which lasted for almost two hours.
Afterward, she gave some information about the history of the Tower of Opportunity.
A lot of students raise their hands to ask questions regarding the Tower because for them the Tower was a huge opportunity to become strong.
Aliza patiently answered everyone's queries before saying goodbye and leaving the classroom.
.....
Meanwhile, Kyle and Nine who were expecting to get some punishment because they were absent for the past 4 days, were dumbfounded when Professor Aliza left without a single word.
Nevertheless, it was good for them as both of them looked at each other with surprise.
Alec who was sitting beside Kyle stood up.
"Let's leave for training."
Kyle nodded, and all of them left the classroom heading straight toward the training ground.
Seeing them leaving the other students also started following behind them.
Soon, they entered the training ground which was the same as before.
As usual Alec, Nine and Carcel took out their weapons and went toward the dummies.
And Lara and Mia went toward the long distance targets.
On the other hand, standing in front of a dummy Kyle took out his sword and closed his eyes for a while.
All the basic sword moves flashed through his head.
For the past whole month, Kyle had been observing a lot of students practicing different sword Arts and he noticed that there was something similar in every sword Art.
And those were the basic moves of the sword!
That's why Kyle wanted to master all the basic moves, in this way he would be able to easily seize any openings present inside his opponent's moves.
After taking a deep breath Kyle started hitting the dummy with all his strength, executing all the basic moves.
He also practiced the first move of 'Void Shattering Strikes'
'Eliminate'
While practicing he didn't even notice how the morning sun went down and a moon appeared between the dark clouds.
Alec who was practicing beside Kyle couldn't help but look at Kyle because his sword was faster and sharper than before.
Also, the move Kyle used before while fighting Alec was now very different, as Kyle's sword after changing trajectory would not just hit the neck but also all the other parts of the dummy.
Alec wonder just what Kyle did in the past week for him to advance so much.
Slowly but surely all the students started leaving the training grounds, to rest for the day.
Even Alec and Carcel were tired, they stopped and grouped up with Lara and Mia who seemed to be also stopping for today.
But Kyle didn't stop, he was so absorbed in practicing that he didn't even notice that the whole training ground was now empty.
Alec looked at Kyle and sighed because Kyle was always the first person to leave the training ground but today he seemed a little disturbed for some reason.
But among the people present, no one except Nine knew the reason behind Kyle's behavior.
And because Kyle's gaze was too fixed on attacking the dummy he wasn't able to hear the others calling out his name.
Suddenly a familiar child-like voice resounded inside his head.
-'Hey, did you just leave me alone inside that cramped room? And to top it off you didn't even leave any food for me.'
"?."
Kyle finally stopped, and under everyone's gaze a small red fur ball flew inside the training ground before sitting on top of Kyle's head.
-'Why didn't you hear when I was calling your name?'
Kyle put his sword inside the storage ring and gently patted Bia's head with an apologetic face.
"Sorry, I didn't notice the time. But how did you find me? Also, it's dangerous you should have stayed inside the room."
-'It's not hard for me to find you because we are connected. Also, how can you expect me to stay inside that gloomy room, if you are so worried next time be sure to take me with you.'
Kyle sighed and turned around, only to see everyone staring at him with strange expressions.
"What happened?"
Nine was the first one to ask about the bird sitting on top of Kyle's head.
Kyle smiled and pointed at Bia.
"It came out from an egg I found during the first mission I took from the Academy."
"Oh"
After Nine unexpectedly it was Mia who approached Kyle and tried to touch Bia because she was just too cute with big blue eyes and red fur enveloping her whole body.
And to Kyle's surprise, Bia flew toward Mia before sitting on her shoulder.
Lara the one who was always grumpy toward Kyle also approached Bia and started patting her head.
'Bia seemed to be enjoying herself.'
Kyle looked at Bia with a smirk before glancing at Carcel and Alec, but Alec's expression showed utter shock.
Shock?
Kyle walked toward Alec.
"What happened."
"Huh, it's nothing."
Getting no response from Alec, Kyle shrugged his shoulders.
Alec walked toward Bia because he also wanted to touch her but before he could Bia started flying, making everyone laugh at Alec.
With an embarrassed expression, Alec smiled bitterly because the thing he just saw was something no one would be able to know in their whole life, maybe not even Kyle.
