Several guards shouted and entered the main hall gasping for air. The higher-ups in the hall were shocked, they immediately ran towards Nesa's room but when they arrived, the Lagoon was already there and shook their heads at them.
"AAARGH"
shouted Ivory indignantly, his face bright red.
"Quickly find Nesa, muster all the guards!" Ivory commanded, he was really angry this time.
"And you Lagoon, quickly find the higher-ups. We need to talk about this ASAP!"
Lagoon disappeared in an instant, Ebony paced back and forth, she was as angry as Ivory. This is the umpteenth time Nesa has been attacked and now they know that Nesa is Oxara.
Prash!
The mattress where Nesa lay was scorched, she vented his anger. Ivory just watched what Ebony did.
Tuscany who had just entered the castle was surprised to see the guards running around. The students were confused seeing the guards running fast throughout the academy, they barged into every class. Whispers began to be heard from the students, not a few were getting scared. This has never happened before.
"What happened?" Tuscany stopped one of the guards.
"Nesa was kidnapped, Tuscany," replied the guard, he immediately continued his search.
"Nesa was kidnapped?"
"He again? How many times did he make a fuss?"
"I'm sure she's a bitch."
The chatter of the students began to sound. Tuscany was still unconscious from his shock but the chatter of the students grew louder.
"Shut up!"
Tuscany's voice made the students immediately fell silent, they did not dare to look at Tuscany. Her yellow eyes shone brightly.
"You should sympathize not judge."
Tuscany looked at them intently, she walked straight towards the main hall, she had to know what was really going on. Whispers were heard again from the students after Tuscany left, not a few of them cursing at Nesa because since her arrival they have not been able to calm down at all.
"What happened? Why are the guards running around like that?" Selly asked one of the students.
"Your friend is making trouble again," the student sneered.
Selly's brows furrowed, she didn't understand what he meant.
"Nesa, she was kidnapped,"
"WHAT!"
Selly immediately ran to Nesa's treatment room, many guards gathered there. She wanted to barge in but the guards blocked her.
She looked at Nesa's charred mattress. She growled, she left feeling angry, she promised to take revenge for those who had hurt Nesa.
"I have to ask Rex for help,"
Selly immediately ran to find Rex, she saw Rex was sneaking.
"Rex!"
Rex was shocked to hear Selly's scream, he immediately covered Selly's mouth. He saw Shamrock, the person he was stalking realized he was being followed.
"You," Rex grumbled.
"Nesa was kidnapped!"
Rex's eyes immediately rounded, he immediately ran but was restrained by Selly.
"Listen to me, the guards are still looking for her. I want us to find her together."
Rex hit the wall next to him. He was really angry, why is it always Nesa they are after.
"What should we do Rex?" asked Sally nervously.
"You look for Irene, I'll find Cloe," said Rex.
He immediately sped away as well as Selly even though she was actually confused, why did Rex involve Irene.
"Irene!"
Selly saw Irene who was asking people. Irene turned to the source of the voice.
"Follow me, Rex is looking for you,"
"What's that?" asked Irene on the street. They promised two more days to meet not now.
"Nesa was kidnapped,"
Irene was surprised but she didn't answer, she quickened her pace. Selly waved at Rex and Cloe who were already waiting for them, their faces were as nervous as Selly and Irene.
"Listen to me," Rex said.
"Nesa was kidnapped, I want us to find her together. But before that, I have something to tell you."
Rex looked at Irene asking permission to tell what they were doing, Irene nodded.
"Irene and I are investigating yesterday's fire and Shamrock,"
Cloe was surprised at Rex's words. "Why did you investigate Shamrock?" He lowered his voice for fear that someone would hear.
"I have a hunch that Shamrock was behind yesterday's fire,"
This time it was Selly who was surprised but Rex continued his speech.
"Irene saw the perpetrator of the fire and maybe he was also the perpetrator who attacked and kidnapped Nesa,"
"The perpetrators of the fire are from the diamond order, our priority now is to investigate the diamond order," said Irene.
"Wait," said Sally. "The perpetrator who attacked Nesa while being treated was from the topaz order, not the diamond order,"
"Are you sure?" Rex asked.
"I fought him before he ran away," said Selly.
Rex clenched his fists. Di did not expect that the firefighter and the one who attacked Nesa were two different people, but his suspicions of Shamrock did not diminish.
"Our priority now is to find Nesa," said Rex.
"Cloe and I will investigate Shamrock and you two will investigate the order of topaz and diamonds. If there's anything suspicious, let me know right away."
They nodded, they immediately parted. Irene and Selly questioned people but they didn't get a satisfactory answer.
"Wait," said Sally.
"You said the culprit was from the diamond order?"
Irene nodded. "Do you remember anything?" Irene asked hopefully.
"During the fire, I saw a man in a white robe hit Nesa and walk towards the fire, I cursed him but he didn't apologize at all for hitting Nesa,"
"You remember his face?"
Sally shook her head. "He just walked away without looking."
Irene nodded her head, at least she had friends who saw the white-robed person looking suspicious.
"Do you remember who attacked Nesa back then?"
"No, he's wearing a mask but he's shorter than me,"
"We will go to your village, I believe that the one who attacked Nesa and the one who kidnapped her is the same person," said Irene.
Sally nodded. They went straight to their village.
On the other hand, Rex and Cloe crept near Shamrock's room, Cloe's eyes popped out of place and peeked into the room.
"Shamrock isn't in his room," said Cloe.
Footsteps were heard from inside the room, Cloe immediately stopped peeking. Shamrock comes out of the room, he looks in a hurry.
"Didn't you say he wasn't in the room?" Rex asked.
Chloe chuckled. "It seems my eyes don't see fully,"
Rex rolled his eyes, he immediately followed Shamrock. He stopped when he saw Shamrock talking to the guards. The restless look on his face was obvious.
"What are you doing here?" asked the guards.
"Why do the higher-ups of Shamrock seem in such a hurry? Is there a problem?" Rex said.
"You do not know? Nesa was kidnapped and the higher-ups were discussing it. You guys are back, the atmosphere is precarious."
"There's nothing odd about Shamrock, Rex," whispered Cloe as they walked away.
"We'll continue later," Rex said, his eyes fixed on the tightly closed main hall.

"You really want to kill him?" asked a woman with an incredulous face.
"I don't want any more Oxara descendants," said the man before him with an angry face.
"But she is your own grandson, think about your son's feelings," the woman gripped the shoulder of the man in front of her.
"I don't want them to feel what I feel Inggrid!"
The man had let go of Inggrid's grip, he was staring at the baby in front of him, a look of hatred shining in his eyes. His hands moved to strangle the baby's neck, the crying began to sound.
"STOP KEXA!"
Inggrid pushed Kexa, she immediately hugged the baby who was crying loudly, she saw the baby's neck was red from being strangled by Kexa.
"Let go of that baby Inggrid before I attack you too," Kexa said, his face completely red.
Kexa stepped closer to Inggrid, the baby's cries getting louder. Ingrid hugged the baby more, she was not afraid, she would not let Kexa kill this baby.
Kexa approached, his hand ready to snatch the baby from Inggrid's hand but a black light shot out of the baby, he was thrown. Kexa's eyes widen in disbelief, he starts to get angry, he takes a stick, he mumbles something, a green light starts to appear, he points the stick at the baby.
"Dad stop it!"
Kexa turned his head, she saw Keylan, his son was looking at him with tears in his eyes. He lowered his wand. Keylan immediately ran to his daughter.
"Father please don't kill her, dad sees I'm fine. Aren't you also a descendant of Oxara?" said Keylan while sobbing.
"Arrrgh!"
Kexa ruffled hir hair in frustration, it's true that he and his child are fine, but not with his grandson.
"She's a girl, Keylax!" Kexa shouted.
"We are fine because we are boys. She's cursed."
Keylan took a deep breath, he looked at his father sharply. "Until then no one can kill my daughter,"
Keylan immediately left the room, Kexa wanted to chase him but was restrained by Inggrid.
"Let's find a way to remove the curse,"
Kexa looked at his wife sadly, Inggrid smiled trying to calm her down, she hugged Kexa from behind indicating that everything would be fine.
Nesa POV on
I opened my eyes, my head felt heavy. There is no one in front of me.
"Dreams again,"
I hold my head, this is the umpteenth time I've dreamed. I can't remember the dream, only the word kill I always remember.
"Where am I?"
I just realized I was in an empty room with dim light. I realized that I was bound, I remember when I first came to this world. But why have I now tied up again?
I tried to scream but my voice was muffled, my body felt weak. Only a moan came out of my mouth. Not long after I heard footsteps, I closed my eyes again pretending to sleep.
"She hasn't woken up yet?" a man's voice was heard.
"Not yet, I think I gave her too much poison," said one woman.
I heard footsteps approaching me, breath felt on my neck, I felt something stuck in my neck. I tried to endure the pain.
"Stop Denux, you can be scolded by your king,"
The man growled, he released his bite. His breath sounded fast, he was like a starving person.
"Wake her up," the man said.
A hand opened my mouth forcefully, she poured the liquid into my mouth. Slowly I felt my energy return, I opened my eyes. I saw there was a woman and a man I didn't know, but there was something strange about the man, his body was too pale, very different from the magicians in this world.
"Who are you? Why am I here?" I ventured to ask.
The pale-skinned man looked at me intently, he smirked, his canines sticking out, I was surprised to see him. Is he a vampire? I'm afraid to see it.
"You damned child," said the woman in front of me.
"You are too rude Poley, remember the descendants of your master," the man chuckled as he looked at the woman beside him.
"Shut up, she's not my master anymore," said the woman named Poley earlier.
"Why did I become a cursed child?"
They both stopped arguing with my question, Poley stepped forward and glared at me.
"Oxara,"
I frowned confused, about what he was talking about.
"You look a lot like her,"
Poley stroked my face but then she choked me.
"Why did you have to come back again!" Poley's eyes widen, she tightens her grip on my neck. My breath starts to run out, a moan escapes my mouth.
"You want to be killed by lord Vred?"
Denux let go of Poley's grip on my neck, Poley glared at Denux angrily, a look of hatred emanating from her eyes.
"You have the aura of a vampire," Denux says, he chuckles at me.
"What do you mean?"
I don't understand what they are saying, Oxara and now vampires.
"Are you pretending to be stupid?" asked Denux, he was walking behind me. A breath was felt on my neck.
"Too bad I can't taste your blood,"
"I'm not a vampire," I said.
"Of course, you are not a vampire, you are a witch who cooperates with vampires."
My eyes widen at Denux's words, I'm a witch cooperating with vampires? I don't understand at all.
"Ask your underlings," he chuckled, pointing at Poley who was still looking at me disapprovingly.
I looked at Poley asking for an answer, she walked towards me.
"You don't know that you are Oxara?"
"Remember that you are descended from Oxara!" Poley gripped my shoulder.
Her screams made my head hurt, little by little I started to remember my dream. Oxara, my father, and two people I don't know.
"I really don't know about Oxara," I said, my eyes narrowing, the flash of dream memories making my head hurt.
Poley pointed at the wand at my waist. "Why do you think you have that wand?"
"That's because you're a descendant of witches,"
The pain in my head is getting worse. KILL! KILL! KILL!. The word kept repeating in my head.
"Listen to me!"
Poley lifted my chin, I grimaced. I tried to hear what she had to say.
"You don't deserve that wand," Poley took the wand from my waist and threw it away.
"You know why? Because your ancestors betrayed the wizarding nation."
She gripped my chin tighter, hierface getting closer to mine.
"And I, as your subordinate, must endure it!"
She slapped my chin and laughed loudly. PLAAK! A slap landed on my face.
"Never mind Poley, you know Mr. Vred doesn't like things to get scratched,"
Denux mumbled something, Poley's body froze. Poley growled angrily but Denux ignored her.
"Maybe you don't know that you're a descendant of wizards, but that doesn't matter," Denux said.
"Now you must meet Mr. Vred," he continued happily.
"Who is Mr Vred?" I ask.
"You'll find out for yourself,"
Denux let me go. I looked at him confused as he untied me.
"You're troublesome if you're tied up,"
He hit the nape of my neck, my vision immediately darkened. Poley growled at what Denux was doing. Denux chuckled seeing Poley's reaction, he walked towards Poley.
"You're also troublesome when you wake up,"
Denux hit Poley's nape, he passed out. Denux mumbled something, a black portal appeared, he went straight in and lifted Nesa and Poley at once into the vampire world.
