Main Dining Hall
Just as the announcement ends, Alex and Ms. Valentine showed up at the dining hall
When Alex and Ms. Valentine made their way through the crowd to where the fight was, they were shocked to see Henchmen A laying on the ground. The two didn't know what happened since they didn't see the fight. Ms. Valentine quickly walk out to disperse the crowd
"You all heard the announcement! Now get out of here and return to your dorms!" Ms. Valentine shouted out
Upon seeing and hearing Ms. Valentine, the students slowly disperse
"I will remember this! I will make your life and that bitch Alex's life at the Academy a living hell! You will wish you were dead!… Henchmen B go pick that trash up from the floor. We are leaving this shithole and going back to the West wing" Tou Ming declares
Henchmen B carries Henchmen A's unconscious body and walks behind Tou Ming. Lou Ming turns around and gives Jin a sinister grin before leaving
Hana and Kurumi also leave for their dorms
"Hey Kurumi, don't you think we saw something interesting today?"
"How so Hana-sama? Just two muscle heads going at each other really"
"Haha yes you're right" Hana looks at Kurumi with a funny smile
"But that new student…I still can't believe he dodged those four punches at hair's breadth"
"Although it was pretty impressive, he probably had a D-ranked cyber-ware..most likely a speed type." Kurumi replied
"Hmm.." Hana thought in silence
As Hana and Kurumi make their way back to the West wing, their good looks and elegance charm everyone in their way
"Jin are you hurt?! I'm sorry I just left you here"
Alex said with tears
"It's okay I'm not hurt. But I can't say the same for the wall…" said Jin pointing to the massive hole
"Don't worry about that. The academy will charge that fat ass which will probably come out of the Ming brother's pockets." Said, Ms. Valentine
"You two should also return to your dorms. The rift opened up near the East Campus grounds. The Hunters Organization Association (HOA) will soon be on site to check it out so until then everyone needs to be in their rooms"
"Thank you Ms. Valentine" the boys replied
Then Jin and Alex slowly make it to their dorms across the campus. Ms. Valentine watches Jin and thought to herself
"That fatass is a D-ranked mana-user of the brawler class…although he is pretty low in rank, Jin is a no-mana and couldn't have beaten him…Did Jin have help..? I need to ask someone who saw what happened!"
…
"Thank you for saving me back there Jin and I'm sorry to have left you alone, I would probably be in the hospital or die without you...you're my only ally at the Academy…will you be my friend…?" more tears roll down Alex's face
"You don't have to be sorry, they were dickheads attacking you like that..and four against one.." said Jin and then with a smile "and here I thought we were already friends"
Alex wiped the tears from his face and laughs then hands Jin back his blazer and a chicken katsu sandwich

West Wing Dorms
The dorms of the West Wing were three gorgeous glassy skyscrapers that stood side by side connected on multiple floors with walkways. The top floors were reserved for the best and most talented students. Their rooms are massive villas with nearly any home amenity you can think of
The Ming brothers' rooms were on the 30th floor in the middle of the towers. Their talent was much better than the average mana-user with the little brother Lou Ming having a bit higher mana capacity (B-ranked) than the elder Tou Ming(C-ranked). Their unit was half of the 30th floor on one of the towers
Tou Ming was fuming and about to blow up
"THAT MOTHER FUCKER EMBARRASSING ME LIKE THAT IN FRONT OF THE ACADEMY!! IF THE STUPID INSTRUCTOR HADN'T SHOWN UP, I WOULD'VE SKEWERED HIM LIKE A KEBAB!!" Tou Ming screamed
"Haha calm down brother….my henchmen found out some interesting information on him…you can have your revenge and we can benefit from it hehe" Lou Ming chuckles
"Really little brother?! You have a plan? Haha, just wait! I will make swiss cheese out of you hahaha!" Tou Ming laughs

East Wing Campus
Training stadium
A gigantic pitch-black sphere reaching 10 meters in diameter was hovering inside an outdoor stadium located on the East Wing campus. The rift looks like a mini black hole with an event horizon that bends light. The rift radiated huge amounts of invisible mana into the air which can only be felt by mana-users
Five men and one woman dressed in black suits and dress suit stood in front of the black sphere marveling at its size. They are Hunters from the Hunter Organization Association (HOA). Their job was to identify the rift's rank and the time when the rift becomes active
"There is no mistaking it…The mana detector is saying it is a C-ranked rift!" said one of the men. He was a B-ranked certified hunter and in his hand was a digital device capable of reading mana
Another of the group, a younger man in his late 20s steps up to get a closer look at the rift. His name is Jacob Rodgers and the squad leader of this group. He had light brown hair with brown pupils
Jacob is an A-ranked certified hunter and has been with working with the HOA of Megalopolis 10 for six years since he graduated from the Royal Magic Academy
'I never thought I would come back to the academy to clear a rift..'
"How long until the rift opens?" Jacob asks one of the others
"The rift will reach maximum mana potential in 24 hours, sir! By then it will be a B-ranked rift.." The female hunter responds. She is also a B-ranked hunter
"Okay set up a perimeter around the rift. Nobody enters this stadium until we clear the rift in 24 hours' time! We will monitor the rift until then!"
"Yes sir!"
