colos school library , 10:58 am.
Inside the library, Big light stones illuminated this place. there are only 11 people left now. Nider and his 9 friends , Aetius and the security guard.
If it was another normal day,Nider would have left by now to sleep. But today, he was feeling unwilling to leave as Aetius was still present in the library. Normally , it was always Nider who leave the library last . Nevertheless, today someone else want to take away this spiritual title. He was determined to last longer than Aetius.
"Hey Nider,I am feeling so sleepy, I am out! "
"yeah me too, its almost 11 pm. I have to wake up early for school man."
Nider also helplessly nodded. They never stayed up so late at library except before semester exams.
The final exam is in December. Now it is end of September . So there is no need to burn the midnight oil!
Nider said,
"Seeing his(aetius) expression, it looks like he can go on for all night! I wonder if he really lost his mind after being beaten like a dog ."
"Yeah Nider,I tell you, he is looking for making a love potion for sure!"
Nider shook his head and replied,
"I don't think so resev. He has been flipping pages of different types of books since he came and doesn't seems to be searching for anything special.Well anyway, i am out too."
Nider and his gangs left the library giving Aetius weird looks.
Now Aetius is the only student left in this big library. Aetius however was completely unaware of that.He is complete focused on flipping the pages of the books he finds important and informative.
After an hour later, he just finished flipping the book, "magic Beasts of the thar mountains"
He looked at the big wall clock in the library.It is now 11:56 pm.
'I am so tired.my hands are swollen and every page i flip, it feels like a needle is jabbing my all fingers.
But it all worth it! I have saved all the books that seems to be useful of this library into my brain! I don't need to come back here anymore and pay silver coins!
After leaving the book in it's original place, I started to leave this library. I am feeling a bit dizzy now, i will need at least 6 hours of sleep!
The security guard was sited in a chair side of the door.He was singing god knows what but it was only 3 word song!
It reminded of my past life,if i heard a good song i would murmur that songs few word as i would forget rest of the whole song!
"Beautyyyyy.....coooooomeeeeeee....heeeeeeeear...."
Hearing this i couldn't help but laugh out loud.He is around 60-70 at least ! Shouldn't people of his age normally hears religious hymns?
"Hey brat,What so funny? "
I stopped laughing at told him i am done.
He took out a piece of paper and said,
"6 silver coin"
I replied, "It is not 6 hour yet, grandpa. "
" then go back stay there and complete your time!"
Helpless, i paid him and left with a ugly expression. The security guard continued his vulgar song.
'This old geezer, forget it '
The corridors of the school was completely empty.Everyone must be in deep sleep now.I headed to my room for some quality sleep.
On my way to my living quarters, I saw girl of class 3B with a small wolf pet in the fields standing. She has silver hair which is common among colos family members.
The wolf arched it back in a crescent shaped and a white mist was constantly going inside its mouth.
I become a little horrified and also curious. I get closer cautiously to see clearly. When i get closer she noticed me and gave me a meaningful look. I slowly wanted to go away from here but she asked me,
"Why are you acting as if you are horrified seeing me? "
I shook my head and feigned a wary smile.
" Looks like you don't know about misty silver moon wolfs meditation at all. " She said and started to laugh out loud.
Don't tell me she has spiritual wolf as her pet!
spiritual pets are very rare and also very pricey.Unlike common beasts, they will follow their master's order and never betray them . An ordinary spiritual pet egg costs around 100,000 gold coins. As for rare ones , They are priceless. Only noble family's can afford to have them.
This newborn is a very rare one. It will consume white moons essence every month during full moon.
"I was just admiring the beautiful moon trio's. I didn't wanted to dusturb your pets meditation. " I faked a smiled and replied.
"Admiring the moons? Looks like you are still feeling sad for your past girlfriend. I tell you a tip, those who take a oath in those sacred names must obey or they will perish into nothingness.I personally saw a servent of our colos family badmouthed a sacred name and died in a tragic way which you can't imagine."
Aetius was not however didn't paid any heed of her words but when hear that sacred names power which even frightened a colos familys young miss, he felt a bit fear but that's it.
Anyway that lovesick died so I am out of the oath range, right?
Seeing he is thinking something, she motioned to her pet to come close to thier . The pet came to the girls leg and stated to lick her shoes like a active dog back in my previous world.
But i didn't felt admiration but fear. You must know that spirit beasts are a very dangerous pets. If their owner command them to attack someone they will obey them without a second pause.
Rare spirit beasts has rare and strange abilities. This type of wolf can use mist type abilities.
"Don, say hello to this boy. " The girl pointed at me and said to her pet.
The wolf cub looked at me and moved his back at left.
I was speechless. It didn't even bother and left me as if i was a nuisance! Even a pet doesn't even give a shit about me!
"Ha ha ha, looks like he doesn't liked you. " She laughed so hard that she seems to cry.
This pet, remember today's mischief, one day i will cook you alive. humph!
I said goodbye and hurriedly left. I do not know her name but with this small talk i can guess she is related to colos family. Anyway i don't care.
Within a few minutes, i came infront of my room.after opening the door, i went inside.
The room is now completely dark. I fetched out the light stone from my pocket and observe the room to see if anything out of the place.
'Everything seems to be in order like 6 hours ago.'
He gone directly to the bad and thought, It would be great if i can wake up at 6. And fell into a deep sleep.
Suddenly, I opened my eyes.I was lying in a white two-crank electric bed! The bad had railing on both sides.Beside the bed, there's electric monitor, a saline holder and it had a saline bag hanging in its hook.A few drops of saline water was entering in a slim tube in every few seconds continuously. I looked at my left hand, there is a needle poked in my hand.The needle was connected with seline water tube.
Both of the hands are so thin and fragile.There are a lot of needles pokeing marks on my both hand.I lifted my left hand difficulty and bring it to my head which was bald.
'Lost all of the hair's, huh... i am really back....was it a dream....?.....I .... thought everything was real and i could start a new life in that world but.....'
A few drop of tears caressed my thin cheeks.
Soon i heared the sound of the door opening. Did she finally come to say me good bye?
With high expectations, i looked at the door, but only to be disappointed. The nurse entered and started to change the saline bag.
My body was dying slowly for the past 2 years.I had liitle to no strength in this body.I asked her in a weak voice,
"Did anyone came to see me?"
The nurse get annoyed and replied disdainfully,
"No, for 1 whole year, no one came to look for you! Stop asking the same question every single day!" After saying that she left.
I am in this hospital bed for 2 years now. I am a cancer patient. When i first discover my cancer symptom, i was 27 years old at that time.
My father died when i was only 1 years old. My father left behind a huge fortune after his death.My mother married my fathers close friend 2 years later.
My stepfather would always took care of me but the relationship between me and my step brother and sister was not harmonious.
School,college, university, i had a huge friend circle.My mother passed away when i was 21.After my moms passing,my stepfather started to ignore me as much as possible.
I was like a needle in his eyes. except giving me monthly allowances, he would not talk with me!My step siblings are also was rude to me since day one .
I also started to ignore them as well. I had a a lot of friends at those times. I would spend majority of my times hanging around my friends.
I was in a love relationship with my high school girlfriend. Everything was going well for me, but suddenly everything changed after my cancer positive report!
Everyone forgot about me one by one . Even my girlfriend, with whom i had many years of relationship and promised not to leave each other and will always love one another stopped visiting me a year ago.
I am just an lonely guy who is waiting to die.No one cares about me. None of the 3 step siblings ever came to pay a visit. A year ago, my stepfather last visited me.
But i still hope she would one day come to see me at least for the last time before i leave this world. Maybe this hope is the only thing that kept me alive till now.But this hope can no longer keep me alive.
Sometimes, when i close my eyes to sleep, doctors who come to checkups would say that i am just a few months guest. I could have been saved if my stepfather signed for the operation. But he didn't give his signature saying that theres no need to spend any more money behind me!
'My dead father property can be sold for millions of dollars with ease.If they were generous enough,i may have become healthy long ago,huh....'
' What friend! what lover!what a fake family! Without money,power, health,longevity, all meaningless. I really miss mom and dad. If they were alive,maybe i... '
TING TING TING....
Suddenly i started hear alarm clocks loud sounds.I moved my head to left to see a alarm clock in the table with my bed.In this clock,their were a few words instead of time.
NAME:Aetius
System level :1 +
Seeing this,i mustered all of my sick bodies strength to move to this alarm clock.The moment i touched it, I was in my colos school bedroom!
