Eventually, I had to put the book away. Mostly because I felt I might get caught if I continued to read it in secret. So, Kirt spent the whole day not doing anything and just looking at the chalkboard and the teacher.
When he went home, he took out the book and read it once again.
After a few hours of reading, where he didn't feel bored at all, he finally finished the book.
Now, he had comprehensive knowledge about the three pathways. Well, he still could've found it on the internet but, hard copies of these kinds of knowledge were always more trustworthy and more detailed than those digital.
Besides, he didn't want to spend his whole day looking at his phone. Not only was it uncomfortable, he was already having enough screen time with the game God's Lore. His vision might deteriorate.
So, after it was around 6 PM, he got out of his apartment and got a sandwich along with chocolate bread.
He didn't cook food. His parents would eat outside and when they come home, they didn't eat food. Hence, he would either rely on the ready fruits and snacks at home, order food, or get out to get something.
...
His parents didn't arrive until 11 PM. He knew that because he was playing God's Lore on his phone instead of sleeping. He should've been sleeping by his parents' expectation. Well, he didn't sleep until 3 AM.
Tomorrow, he got up at 6 AM and once again went to his school.
It was a normal day except that a crowd had gathered in the path towards the school.
It was quite a huge crowd and among them, he also saw many students from various schools. However, it was obvious most of them were from the school he went to - The School of Saint Trypa.
'Did something happen?' this thought undoubtedly came to Kirt's mind as his body moved closer to take a look.
The crowd was gathered in front of four people. Two middle-aged men and two girls.
The two men were currently bowing in front of the two girls with their heads lowered down, strangely. They seemed to be drunk as booze could still be smelled from them. One could recognize that they were drunkards at a glance.
One of the girls, one with the long white hair, was currently looking down at them quite condescendingly, while the other one with the short blue hair was just blatantly ignoring them, looking at her phone.
Looking at their uniform, they were from another private school nearby. One that was quite similar to the School of Saint Trypa but was slightly better.
Even looking at their accessories they wore, one could clearly sense they were of rich background.
Currently, the situation was that an elemental fluctuation could be felt from the white-haired girl's body. Continuous streams of chilly cold air emanated from her while her eyes were fixated on the two drunkards.
With a slow yet, chilly tone, she asked:
"Do you two admit your faults?"
Even Kirt felt his heart turn cold from the cold and detached voice of the girl. He felt like as if the girl was the judge and the two drunkards were being judged by her.
Just as the white-haired girl had said that, the two drunkards quickly said in succession.
"Yes, yes, young lady. P-please spare us as we had acted out of our own boundaries and touched your body!" obvious sweat was forming on their foreheads as their heads hit the ground and their voice said with a tremble.
Even a faint scarlet liquid could be seen dripping from their forehead from the impact. One could only imagine how scared they were to not control their strength.
At that moment, the short blue-haired girl removed her eyes from her phone and then directed it towards the two drunkards.
"Come on Sylia, we have to get to school. Don't waste time on them"
As the blue-haired girl said this, she didn't have much sympathy in her eyes. Only disgust and annoyance could be seen from them looking at them bowing with their foreheads on the ground.
Hearing the blue-haried girl say this, the white-haired raised her hand and then said, "Consider yourselves lucky"
As soon as her hands were raised into the air, two hands made out of snow formed in air.
Then, as her hand moved, so did the two snow hands and in a moment, they had already lifted the two drunkards into the air.
The two of them couldn't help but shout in despair while struggling in air.
"Y-young miss! Please spare us!"
However, the two hands had no intention or whatsoever to release them. Instead, they even tightened their grips.
"Crack"
"Crack crack"
It wasn't long before the sound of their bones shattering was heard. Soon, also came the two drunkards' scream.
"AAAH!"
After their scream, the two hands made out of snow finally loosened their grip as the two drunkards fell down on the ground helplessly. They were even squirming on the ground from the pain it caused to them.
Only after seeing that the two of them were in immense pain did the white-haired girl retract her gaze and leave the scene. Along with her also left the short blue-haired girl which, their silhouettes soon disappeared.
What was left now was the two drunkards on the ground and the crowd of people formed from students and adults.
Kirt could faintly figure what had happened. According to what the white-haired girl said and the state of the two drunkards, it was likely that the two men were drunk.
So while roaming the streets, they didn't recognize the two girls and touched them. Whether it was inappropriate or not, he didn't know.
But when one of them touched her, the white-haired girl was angry. Hence, the events described above.
Still with lingering fear, Kirt thought to himself, 'Her power level must be above 5!'
Only after a while after the two girls had disappeared did Kirt along with the crowd of people leave the scene.
