Ohma after flying for hours reached checkpost. showing his residency proof of Soma city he was allowed entry.
Entering LAKEMOR ohma found it wasn't much different from Soma. Enquiring a bit he understood how to reach the branch of MALAR council which will provide him help regarding the incident since he was a 'victim'.
Boarding on an airship he paid for his journey from the money he recieved from commander Shen.
In thirty minutes he reached his drop. After flying a bit he reached magistrate office.
" show us your identity"
" I need to meet magistrate it's urgent. I was selected for Academy 2 but our airship was attacked and I escaped. Please inform your branch head. "
Ohma took out his Academy Id.
" Please come"
After contacting a guard let him inside.
Ohma started waiting after two hours the door opened and a bulky guy came inside followed by a girl and a boy.
" Ohma right ?"
" yes " ohma nodded
" I am Solad, branch head of Lakemor branch and these two are Balled and Moka just like you they are to depart today for their academy, can you show me your ID." asked magistrate
" of course"
" hmm.. you are rank 5, how did you escape?" he asked inquisitly and bluntly.
Solad was suspicious before coming here he already got report on area of battle. The extent of attack was quite large to the point reverberations were felt by some more sensitive warlocks. How did a puny rank 5 warlock managed to escape.
" It was cause of those officers they bought me time and offenders didn't focused on me much."
Ohma after going through so many bizzare things he was already alert. So after killing Shen he dropped his body near airships also he didn't wanted to reveal too much strength only till rank 9 but that didn't mean he was going to be pushed around.
" Oh, but all of them were killed without anyone alive,. just so you know they were from a infamous organisation HEATHENS and their commander was rank 12 even he died so you have something to say about that"
" I ran for my life do you expect me a low ranking warlock to kill them" ohma rebuttled with an offended tone.
" Of course not I was just curious" Solad had no intention to pressurize him too much.
" I do not need to answer you, did you inform the academy?"
"... yes they are coming though it might take some time"
" that's fine"
" oh by the way they are also leaving for Academy 5 "
Solad pointed towards the two other sitting with them. hma could see dissatisfaction in their eyes, they were rank 6 warlocks yet they were assigned to academy 5 while a rank 5 was going to academy 2. Academy 5 was 7th in standing among all the acedemies in the country. Even Solad was intrigued. There could only be two reasons why he was chosen for Academy 2 either he was strong enough or wrong rank was provided to him but that was only possible if he was too much strong while second reason was that he had enough backing but that was impossible since entering the building he didn't contacted anyone which was unusual that only proved that second assumption was wrong. Solad wanted to know how strong ohma was.
Ohma realised what Solad wanted to do but he didn't care. Solad was only rank 13 at most and ohma didn't feel a silver of threat from him chances were high that he was only a ordinary warlock without spacial powers.
An hour later the two were picked up by an airship. Ohma was provided with accomodation and clothes. He literally roamed half the city in tatters.
Next day an airship arrived which was far larger in scale both in tech and manpower.
A man in specs and a lady were followed by four men in black uniform.
Ohma was standing before them ready to depart but the man didn't even speak and started looking on his tablet.
after 5 minutes he spoke
" what exactly happened on your way speak?"
Ohma was annoyed by his words, first that pretentious acting now he was asking him questions after reading complete report on the case. looking at him ohma knew he was only rank 8 Warlock yet was employed in academy 2. This shows he had high connections and by that arrogant look and faint hostility from him ohma surmised he must know about their plan to inject nano-tech in his body.
" Didn't you already read that report?" ohma replied without any courtesy.
" Answer what you are asked" he spoke
" I escaped cause those officers bought me some time"
" You, a rank 5 warlock escaped from them impressive you are really luckey" he said in a sarcastic voice
" whatever, get insi--"
While he wanted to speak a fist enlarged before his eyes and he was thrown 50 meters away. Four officers wanted to move but the lady raised her hands and they stopped.
" HOW DARE YOU, you just layed your hands on your appointed officer."
" Oh you got blown away just from a punch, is he really rank 5 or you just want to insult my intelligence" inquired the lady in suit.
Ohma was ready to resist but didn't expect this lady to control the situation.
" No I was informed he was rank 5 you can check my data" the man while covering his right eye shuddered
" Quiet, it doesn't matter I had my doubts but this much strength is enough to escape that group from Heathens. His suspicions are clear." she said in a stoic tone.
" I.. understand" he conceded
Ohma was amazed.
" But you certainly don't expect to get away after attacking a senior officer"
Saying that she disappeared from her place but ohma could follow her movements she was only rank 13, ohma blocked it by crossing both of his hands. With a impact ohma was thrown flying. He didn't resisted much since he also wanted to cover it up. He was a bit impulsive attacking a officer. That faint disgust he felt from everyone was one reason but the other thing was his emotions were pretty messed up clearly his powers had started to affect his mind. He could feel it, that beastly instinct was coming out little by little. Ohma took a deep breath and cleared his mind.
If ohma didn't held back he wouldn't even budge but he needed information and academy 7 was best place he could wish for.
" That was a warning along with that you get D in feedback. My name is Clay and he is Mark now follow us."
With that she boarded the airship followed by ohma and other officers.
The insides of this airship was incomparable to the one before. Again it showed different class had different treatment. It was even faster that the one before.
In the cabin where Mark and Clay were sitting,
" How dare he"
" Calm down he is suspicious of us if I wasn't here you would have definitely failed."
" Though I am curious how he suspected us?" surprisingly mark calmed down in a moment.
" Must be some ability he hid"
" Hehe. it's alright once we are done he would be running at my fingers just like you. "
" You remember our deal, this is last one after that you would release me."
" Of course beauty all these years you worked for us. I can do atleast that much for you."
With that he jumped on clay.
****
Ohma wasn't aware that Clay was working for Mark but all were same he didn't trusted either of them. Even beverages were tasted by him after his senses didn't picked anything.
While ohma was taking a nap the airship reached its destination after 5 hours of continuous flying.
Coming out of airship ohma observed the campus. It was as large as a city with many large buildings. In fact the Campus itself represented the city, some might not even know the name of city. There were people flying around, just by observing ohma knew they were all above rank 10. Ohma was led to a building where he was again tested for his strength. It was rank 9. All officers were amazed rank 9 at such a young age wasn't impossible but certainly rare. Life span of a Warlock is far longer than a human so they age slowly but ohma was really young for his rank.
Ohma was again given new accomodation and new clothes. Everything was provided by academy for 6 months after that if you leave academy you are on your own. If you countinue in academy you need to work for government. though government is in just name all the orders are given from council.
Next day ohma reached the auditorium. This was where he would be allotted to his section. There are six sections for every new batch and new cadets are divided among these sections. After taking his place ohma closed his eyes.
" Hey I'm Kyle what's your name" a boy came and sat beside ohma.
" I am Ohma" he responded.
Ohma wanted to get in contact with some decent trainee. After that a man came on stage and gave a lengthy speech which Ohma took from one ear and discarded from another.
A list was presented on the screen so that everyone can see. All names along with their sections were visible on it.
Ohma searched for his name and saw before his name was written 7.
Ohma was baffled he'd asked many people before entering but no one told his about section 7.
" Hey where is section 7"
" What you don't know? section seven is given to lawless criminals or those who used their powers wrongly. Usually it is for Delinquents. Don't tell me you're..."
Ohma glared at him to shut up.
So that's how is after talking for a while ohma learned that there were a lot of disadvantages for section 7 and their training was usually harsh and there were always problems if you were from section 7 and wanted to quit after 6 months.
with that a face came in ohma's mind and his eyes turned beastly yellow.
