Chapter 147: Second Floor
Chapter 147: Second Floor
The second floor of this twisted school is quite mysterious. Aside from the barrier that blocks any kind of mapping and peeking magic, nothing else can penetrate it. Not only that, it seems like it has something hidden that caused me to be wary on ascending to the second floor. Although our purpose here is to train and let Anya do her thing, the fear of the unknown made me anxious.
Making our way to the stairway that will lead us to the second floor, I realized the violet blobs on the floor and walls are increasing time and time again. It was like it is slowly increasing as time goes by. I don't really know but I am a little bit worried on what these things are. I don't even dare approach or touch it. I also tested it with magic and it didn't even graze it which is what made me frown.
Yuto, Yuri and Inari-sama also have no idea what these things are. It might be normal for Inari-sama but it was weird for Yuto and Yuri since they are living inside a G.A.T.E.S for quite some time and they never didn't have a slightest idea what these things are. Since I have no knowledge about these blotches scattered on the walls and floor, I decided to ask the magicians in the chat group for any sort of info about it.
...
Chat Killer: Hey guys, can you identify what these things are? It kinda creeps me out and I wanted to know if these things are.
Chat Killer: (Photo of the blotches)
Yagyu: Hmm...I don't think I have seen these kind of thing ever in my life. Sorry I can't help.
Rena: What the heck are those? Some kind of slime? No, I don't think they look like one.
Tsugimoto: Ugh... so disgusting...
Zan: Someone's cursed cooking spilled on the floor, I guess?
Yukizome: Can't unsee that sh*t...
Truck-kun: Looks like a vomit to me or some sort of weird bubblegum.
Catmod: Where did you even capture this disgusting object?
Voltaire: Just by looking at it made me want to vomit.
...
Their responses are normal but all of them are not sure what this thing is. I don't have any other choice and I even asked Blue and allowed her to scan it but...
"This is an unknown object to me and there is nothing in my database about it. I can't help you on it."
Due to Blue's response, I am now more suspicious on it. But I didn't have any arsenal with me that can help with this thing. I don't want Anya to test this one either so I have to be patient.When we arrived the stairwell to second floor, the sinister aura in the air is getting really heavy from the direction of the second floor.
"Should we proceed brother?" Anya asked.
I hesitated at first but since I wanted to know what those violet blotches, I decided to keep going.
"Let's continue."
...
When we reach the second floor, I didn't expect it to covet the appearance of the school ground. Grasses, flowers, and lamposts, those are all present in the second floor. Even the iconic fountain located in the center of the campus is also present. However, this time around, instead of green, it was all color grey and white. The only different color you can see here is the violet color of the blotches. Compared to the amount of blotches on the first floor, the second floor has fewer of those things.
"I detected a lot of enemies hiding in plain sight brother. How should we take them all out?"
"I will trigger them out, then you can do your work, how does that sound?"
"Doesn't really matter, as long as those monsters will be removed out of my sight."
"Alright, wait for a bit, this can get loud."
SNAP!
CRACKLE!
Lightning fell to the sky rapidly and quickly revealed the location of the enemies. Didn't expect the enemies are all statues. The statues present in our school that represent all of the previous principal. Now they are monsters ready to attack. To think they will do some ambush? As for the skill I used, that was just the normal [Lightning Strike] I managed to master.
"Alright, you can do your job now. Go and release your stress."
Anya grinned and she flap her wings, allowing her to fly. She waves her hands lightly and I can clearly see in my position the red pillars appearing one by one on the monsters that popped out after I released my Lightning Strike. The moment the pillars appear on the monster, howls and growls of the monsters started to rang out one by one. Anya continue her actions without stopping and the howls continue.
Around 30 minutes later, Anya slowly descend from the sky and sighed in relief.
"I never expected to see so many monsters to kill. I can't even kill them fast enough due to their numbers, I am quite exhausted..." Anya wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"Good job, rest here for a while, I will go and collect the shards. Don't force yourself too much okay?"
"Mmm, don't worry about me."
I ordered Yuri and Yuto to guard her for any enemy nearby while I am away from her. I don't think I can trust what the G.A.T.E.S have for me to allow Anya to rest while in this place. As for the shards, although they are small and hard to see in this wide place, I already made sure that there are markings on where they will be after striking the monsters using my lightning strikes. It was one of the perks I managed to learn after getting to master the skill in the training ground.
"Oh, these shards are looking great! They seemed to be brimming with energy that can be used!" Blue said as I pick up one of the shards and examined it.
"I don't think there it is any difference from the usual monster shards that I managed to collect last time?"
"You are still a newbie in terms of identifying precious shards. The quality of these shards that you have collected are quite superior than the ones you have collected previously. So be sure to collect as much as possible. You can use 50 of these shards to activate the training space instead of 100 as long as the shards has the same quality as these."
"Oh? So I can save a lot if I use these kinds of shards? Hmmm, I don't think that is the case... I think you are scamming me instead."
