A man paced around while biting his finger, an uneasy expression etched on his face.
"Can you stop? My head hurts to see you," said the woman in front of him annoyed.
"W-what should we do Poley," he said shakily. His eyes glanced left and right, as if afraid that someone would notice him.
"Calm down Hevan!" said Poley, holding the shoulder of the man in front of him.
"Speak clearly, if you are like this how can I understand,"
"Ox-oxara, he's back," Hevan said shakily, he looked at Poley in fear.
"Enough Hevan! Your master is long dead and he will not live again," said Poley angrily.
She was fed up, Hevan was very often terrified because of Oxara, even hearing his name could make Hevan cower in fear,
"But I saw it Poley! That girl, she is very similar to Oxara, she came back for revenge," Hevan said angrily while grabbing Poley's shoulder.
"Which girl are you referring to?" said Poley confusedly.
"Rainbow robe, tied girl the other day," said Hevan quickly.
Poley was silent thinking about something. Hevan paced back and forth shakily.
"We have to report it to superiors," said Poley.
"Are you crazy? You want to do it again? Enough Poley!" Hevan said, his voice shaking.
"You're crazy!" shouted Poley. "If it's true that he came back for revenge, do you want to die at his hands?"
Hevan shook his head quickly, he bit his finger. He didn't want to die but he didn't want to repeat the same mistake.
"We have to report it to superiors," said Poley looking at Hevan. Her voice turned soft.
"If she really wants revenge, we won't be able to deal with her Hevan, we need their help,"
"Trust your wife," Poley said softly, taking Hevan's hand.
Hevan looked at Poley, he slowly nodded. Poley smiled as Hevan complied. She stood looking out.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen, Hevan."

"What happened Ebony!" said Lagoon surprised when he saw Ebony lift Nesa's body covered in blood.
"He was attacked by Shamrock. Ah no, attacking under the guise of training to be more precise," said Ebony.
"What do you mean? Wasn't Olaf the one Ivory appointed to train Nesa?" Laguna said confused.
"I don't know what he's thinking, better call Ivory to treat his wound," said Ebony.
Lagoon nodded, he quickly disappeared. Ebony looked at Nesa's lying body, she could feel the anger aura from her body.
"Is your real stone black?" Eboni said slowly.
Her mind drifted as he felt a strong aura of anger, she knew very well that only the onyx order could emit such a dense aura. She headed towards the source of the aura emanating from the Shamrock room, her brows furrowed, did he train with Olaf?
But when she opened the door, what she saw was not Olaf but Nesa lying on the ground from being attacked by Shamrock. An aura of anger came from Nesa, she was dumbfounded because the aura of anger she gave off was no joke, it was an aura with killing intent.
Her thoughts were interrupted when Gading entered by running, he was surprised to see Nesa's condition. He quickly raised his wand, white light emanated from his wand and flowed into Nesa's body, slowly Nesa's wounds disappeared.
"I spoke to Shamrock, you guys take care of her," Ivory said coldly.
On the other hand, Selly was looking for Nesa, since being brought by Shamrock Nesa had not returned and it was getting late.
"Have you seen Nessa?" she asked the person she met.
People just shook their heads in ignorance. Selly was confused, should I look in Shamrock's room, she thought.
"Selly why are you in such a hurry?" said Cloe.
"Have you seen Nesa?" asked Sally quickly. Cloe shook his head, he looked at Rex beside him.
"What's wrong with Nesa?" Rex asked.
Selly told what happened, Rex immediately ran to Shamrock's room. Selly and Cloe followed him from behind.
When he got there Shamrock was already limp in Ivory's lap, he saw someone run and get into the vortex and then disappear.
"Vampire," Ivory grumbled, his hands clenched into fists. He took out his wand, white light shot towards the wound on Shamrock's body, the wound slowly dissipating but leaving a black mark. It was the hallmark of a vampire attack.
"What happened?" Ivory asked as Shamrock recovered.
"The vampire nation suddenly came and attacked me, I fought it but my hand was bitten," said Shamrock. Black marks were visible on his hands.
"How did a vampire get in here," Ivory growled. His white eyes shone brightly.
"You take a break and tell the bosses and coaches that there's going to be a big forum," Ivory told Shamrock.
Shamrock nodded, he walked out.
"Where's Nesa?" Rex asked stopping Shamrock.
Ivory turned around hearing Rex's question, she remembered her purpose in coming to Shamrock.
"Nesa is in the main room, she is resting," said Gading.
"Why is she there?" asked Rex coldly. He knew the main hall was only allowed to be entered by higher-ups.
"She's hurt," Ivory replied.
"Is it because you are Shamrock?" Rex glared at Shamrock, his green eyes starting to glow.
Shamrock didn't answer but his face looked disdainful to Rex. Rex growled, he took his wand.
"That's enough Rex, back to the dormitory, Nesa is fine," said Ivory, holding Rex's wand.
"And you Shamrock, we were talking after the big forum," Ivory glared at Shamrock.
Ivory left Rex, Cloe, and Selly, followed by Shamrock. Rex's face hardened, he glared at Shamrock, from the start he didn't like the higher-ups of his order.
"Relax Rex, I'm sure Nesa is fine," said Cloe reassuring Rex.

"You weren't supposed to be born,"
"You cursed child,"
"Your birth was a tribulation for us,"
Swearing oozed out of their mouths, their eyes stared at me with hatred. I covered my ears but their voices were still heard. The longer their scolding grew louder, the I took a step back. They gathered, his hands pointing at my face, disgusted expressions on their faces.
My body is shaking, I don't know my mistake. My body is pinned against the wall, I can't back down anymore. They surround me, byuur, someone splashed my face. Laughter escaped their mouths. A second later more and more flowed into my body, my body was soaking wet, I was shivering with cold,
"What did I do wrong?"
I raised my head, I saw their faces. Silence, no one answered me, only a whisper that came out of their mouths.
"WHAT MISTAKE I HAVE DONE!"
This time I shouted, their faces looked shocked but a second later laughter came out, the insults sounded again. I looked at them with hatred.
"How dare you look at us!" someone grabbed me.
"You ask what did you do wrong?"
"Hey she asked what's wrong," he shouted, people laughing at him.
"Your birth was a mistake, DIE!"
I woke up with profuse sweating and irregular breathing. I looked around there was only Ebony at the end of the room. I breathed a sigh of relief, it was just a dream, but everything felt real, their hateful gazes lingering in my memory.
"You're awake apparently," Ebony approached me but her face looked serious, she surrounded me.
"What are you doing?" I asked uncomfortably, her gaze made me uncomfortable.
Ebony took my wand, she narrowed her eyes but then she exhaled.
"What's the wrong Ebony?" I felt strange about her behavior, I took my wand but nothing strange.
"You don't remember the match with Shamrock?"
I remember fighting Shamrock until Ebony came to my rescue, but I didn't feel anything strange because I was only attacked by Shamrock without putting up a fight.
"Is there something wrong?" I ask.
"You give off the power of onyx,"
My eyes widened, I didn't believe Ebony's words, I just remembered reading the emerald order spell and then I was unconscious.
"That's impossible, I just cast an emerald order spell and it didn't react either.
"Wait," I said remembering something.
"I remember casting any spells because I was cornered, is that an onyx order spell?"
"What spell did you recite?"
I tried to remember the spell I recited.
"wela, zarawela,"
Blacklight shot out of my wand but didn't last long. I looked at Ebony asking for an explanation.
"I don't know either, let me talk to the other higher-ups,"
"You rest," Ebony came out of the room.
"Thanks for helping me," I said.
Ebony just waved his hand, but without Nesa realizing it, Ebony smiled faintly at Nesa's words.
Ebony's thoughts drifted when Nesa hadn't woken up, an aura of hatred emanating from her body. Nesa's body twitched and started sweating, she wanted to wake her up but the hatred aura that radiated from Nesa's body disturbed her. I don't know what's going on in her subconscious. The aura disappeared when Nesa woke up.
"What happened to the kid," said Ebony with a sigh.
"Where have you been, Ebony?" asked Vermilion who was walking beside her.
"Waiting for Nesa to wake up,"
"Did you find anything about her?" asked Vermilion suspiciously. She knew Ebony wasn't a person who cared about other people.
Ebony didn't answer Vermilion's question. Vermilion just sighed, she was used to Ebony's nonchalant attitude.
They arrived at the main hall, Ebony furrowed her brows in surprise. Why did the higher-ups and coaches gather?
"You don't seem to know, we are going to have a big forum," said Vermilion.
Ebony is silent because they rarely hold large forums. What will be discussed, whether to discuss Nesa.
"We've all gathered, let's start the forum," Ivory opened his voice
"Fire and attack on Shamrock,"
They were shocked, the atmosphere started to become chaotic as the higher-ups were attacked. Whispers began to be heard guessing who dared to attack the higher-ups of Irisbow.
"That's right, as you might have guessed, the vampires who attacked Shamrock,"
The atmosphere became more chaotic, the faces of the higher-ups began to harden. Some of the trainers looked worried because a Shamrock, a high-ranking leader of the emerald order could be injured by a vampire attack.
"Why did they attack, isn't it for 1000 years there has never been an attack again," said Tuscany.
"I don't know, I have a bad feeling about this," said Ivory.
"Whatever they do, it's already violating the sacred covenant, we must fight," said Vermilion vehemently.
"I agree with Vermilion, considering that the burned area is a classroom area for us to train students, naturally their goal is to start a war," said Shamrock.
"We have to finish the construction immediately," said Deandra, a coach of the sapphire order.
"I agree with him, we should give the students some extra training. Because we don't know when the vampires will attack," Lagoon said.
The others nodded in agreement at Lagoon's words. They couldn't relax much less with Shamrock who had been attacked.
"Alright, tonight finish building the building and make an announcement for the kids to return to the academy. Also convey to residents to always be careful and start practicing again to hone their skills, "said Gading.
"You can go back to your place, but Olaf you wait here,"
"What's wrong Ivory," Olaf said as the others had left the room.
"From today onwards you train Nesa specifically, training until she finds her strength,"
"Honestly, I feel a strange aura from Nesa," said Olaf.
"Since when?" Ivory looked at Olaf seriously.
"From the start of training I felt something different from the boy but I think it's a normal feeling because I've coached kids a lot. But every time I meet Nesa, I just realize that the aura I feel is different from the aura I feel in other children,"
"Train her hard and report her progress to me," Ivory ordered.
"Okay, Ivory,"
After leaving the room, Shamrock felt uncomfortable because Ebony's gaze never left him.
"What do you want to say," Shamrock paused and turned to face Ebony.
"Are you sure being attacked by vampires isn't a conspiracy?" asked Ebony sarcastically.
"You think I'd do that?" said Shamrock.
"Why not, I feel an aura of hatred from you. You may try to cover it up but you can't fool me."
"It's up to you if you don't believe me, I want to rest,"
Shamrock left Ebony alone. Ebony's eyes stared intently at Shamrock, she was increasingly convinced that something was being covered by Shamrock.
While in another dimension, the vampire dimension looks like they are gathering. Their faces look serious and sly at the same time. Their smiles broke out listening to their king's explanation as if the thing they had been waiting for all along was about to happen. After they finished flying freely, the sky turned black as it was filled with them.
"Are you sure you're going to violate Vred's sacred covenant?" asked the pale-skinned man next to him.
"Why not?" said Vred, showing his canines.
"You will destroy the peace that has existed for 1000 years Vred," the man glared at Vred.
"That's my goal Zee,"
Vred looks up to the sky, many other vampires are flying. He smirked, his eyes fiery.
"We will bring back the glory days,"
"And you know Zee? Something big will help us." Vred looked at Zee.
"What do you mean?"
"Oxara," said Vred.
Zee's expression changed, he rolled his eyes. He looked at Vred like he couldn't believe it.
"Right, the Oxara you're thinking of,"
"Isn't he already dead, how can he come back?" Zee asked.
"Should we know? The important thing is that he's back, right?" Vred chuckled.
Zee is silent, her friends are unpredictable, he is young but his plans never fail, and he hopes this time too. Zee chose to leave Vred, he had a lot to do.
Vred smirked again, this plan had been in his head for a long time but he was still stalling for the right time to attack, but who would have thought his spies would tell that Oxara was back. He was sure that his nation's glory would return.
