"If that's the lesson you learned that's fine. Live, Ayla. I seen your abilities. As long as you don't stuck on what happened, you will be fine."
"Thank you, Sir."
She fidgeted. I sighed. What she wanted to say?
"What happened?"
"Can I have your phone number?"
I gave her my phone number. Not like I was a famous person that would hide his phone number.
"Thank you! But why are you here? I thought you were in hospital."
"Long story. Did you gave your report?"
She shook her head.
"They told me that our superiors should give theirs first."
So, that was like this. I could explain why I was here. But doing that would risk her. She maybe had a Growing Gift. Even though she was a rookie, she could use mana. I didn't wanted to get stuck in this kind of thing. Volkan had backing. Now, they were trying to defend him despite his desertion. When I'll blow the whistle, probably things would get dirty.
"Good. Let me give you a tip. You didn't fought with us. You don't know how to use mana. You obeyed our orders and ran away with others. You didn't saw anything."
"But, Sir!"
I put my finger on her lips.
"That's just a tip. Follow it or not."
"If you plan on reporting his desertion, I will also give my report to help you."
I sighed.
"Do whatever you want."
I had no control over her actions. If she wanted to take a certain action, only thing I could do was giving her advice. I left her and walked towards where Principal were. Unlike most training fields, 5th one was a closed space. It wasn't a training ground I trained at. That was because it was it was a facility created to train magic. Since I wasn't a magic caster, I had no use of that place. I knocked first. No answers came. I tried the handle. Locked. Using Hawkeye to limit, I looked behind the door. Two people were inside. This time, I rougly slammed my fist to door. They still didn't opened it. I took a step back. I slammed my foot at the knock. Using the Hawkeye, I could see the mechanism. Finding the weakest part, I knocked the door with one kick.
"What the fuck!"
An old man's voice reached to my ears.
"I knocked first."
I looked at Volkan and Principal.
"What are you doing, Burak! How dare you damage school property!"
"I will ask this once. Did he not told what he have done or do you trying to protect him?"
Volkan hid behind the Principal. With Hawkeye, I could see that both of their heart beat getting faster.
"Are you insane! What are you doing here? I will call the secur-"
With one step, I was just in front of him. Pushing him to side, I against faced against Volkan. I grabbed him by the collar.
"You son of a bitc-"
"Wind Blast!"
I was knocked to side due impact. Despite the magic hitting my body, I was still on my feet. I couldn't say the same for Volkan. While magic didn't hit him, I was still grabbing him. When I was knocked tos ide, he fell to ground. Only reason he was not full on the ground was because I was holding on to him with a iron grip.
"You left us there to die! Now, you are here, with all of your parts! With none of the scars! With your life!"
I raised my fist and slammed it to his face. But it was stopped with a magic shield.
"Fire Scale!"
I let go and rolled on the ground to extinguish my clothes. I looked at him and he was dusting himself off.
"It seems like you were traumatized due loss of your friends, Burak Sarı. I am sorry for your loss but this is not a behaviour you can show to your superiors."
He was hiding just a second ago. Now he boasted that he was superior.
"You are not my fucking superior. You lost that title when you ran away without looking back at us!"
"Burak, back down, otherwise there will be disciplinary repercussions!"
Principal threatened me.
"There is only one people here that needs to be punished!"
"It seems like Volkan's report was correct. You actually started showing signs of delusions."
I narrowed my eye.
"So you are protecting him."
"Burak, you will be taken for a mental check up. Your report will be taken after that."
He actually was on his side.
"Leyla and Doğukan died because of that bastard. Do you really on his side?"
"I am just doing my mission as Principal of this school."
I gritted my teeth. I wanted to attack and punch those bastards. But it wouldn't solve anything. I was never someone that moved fully with emotions. So I just had to keep it.
"A mind of steel and heart of a stone."
It was something I adopted sometime ago. Now, I just needed to follow it. I turned around. I still could see them due my Hawkeye.
"I will return."
When I tried to step out of the door, something blocked me.
"Do you think you can threaten your superiors and leave? You will be taken to cour-"
"Enough."
My blood boiled. It was an anger so hot that I felt my insides burn with heat. I wanted to released that heat. That power. Taking a deep breathed, I controlled it. Blood red energy seeped out of me. While it was a different color and felt different I could tell what it was.
"Mana? How! You are not a Growing Gifted!"
I remembered how Edward used his mana. I released all of it towards them. Even though we were in a closed place, wind started to blow.
(Mana start is unlocked. Determining the value: 10.)
Volkan looked to shocked to say anything. Having mana was something he boasted all the time
