The student union president was pretty frustrated with Viswa.
He doesn't know what to do with him.
"Just tell me this, off the record. Are they alive?"
"I don't know what you are talking about. I don't if they are alive or not. But I am sure they said they are going to the forest to get some training. So, have you tried to look at those records."
"Do I look like an idiot to you? I already checked all the required records. Makar and three others are the only ones going out to the forest today. He said that the rest actually went on a mission."
"Then go on and check with what missions they got. Why are you out here bothering me?"
The bickering didn't end for a while.
After some time, Viswa went back to the inn and spent some time with the kids. Particularly with the ones that are injured. After making sure that they are all safe, Viswa made his way to the academy.
He didn't even go to his dorm, instead, he directly went to the forest. He didn't need to get any permission because he is not going into Circle 1 second half of the forest. He is just going into the first half.
Since it is open to all the first years, there is no need for him to take any permission.
As soon as he entered the forest, the information was already sent to the Student Union President.
"Motherfucker. I knew you were up to something."
He really wanted to run and drag Viswa out. But Viswa is not even a prime suspect and he is only being suspected as a hindrance for investigation. He doesn't have enough reason to enter the Circle 1 Forest.
He wanted to go and check out the remaining candidates with demonic energy. Of course, he is not stupid enough to kill them in the school grounds. In fact, it would be better for him to leave them alive. So, the next Sir Warden comes, he can sell them out and the investigation would process further.
But no matter how much he roamed around, he wasn't able to find these three people. He did come across Makar though.
"Where are your teammates?"
"We split up as soon as we entered the forest. We want to improve as much as we can. So, we figured moving alone would be a pretty good idea."
Viswa nodded and left the forest.
He is a bit confused and anxious at the moment. Because the visions that came after he killed Mathur and the remaining four guys that came at him are not exactly good ones.
Even the Karma points are way too much. He got 135 points.
And all the visions are related to the academy. He really wished that Sir Warden is there.
He went back to the academy. The student union president wanted to go ahead and scold him, but Viswa himself came to him with an application.
"I want to enter the second half once again."
"Why did you go to the forest?"
"I went to meet Makar. To ask about Mathur and others to see if he knows anything."
"Did you find out anything?"
"I didn't."
"I will take your word for that. Alright, your application is approved. You can leave."
"Thanks."
Viswa went to the forest and found peaceful spot near a lake. He sat down crosslegged and started meditating. He took out one of the demonic pills and swallowed it. He refined the energy by spending some Karma points.
The demonic energy might be dangerous but when refined it has a lot of spiritual energy. He decided to sprint to the breakthrough.
He has a lot to do when he reaches Circle 2, first of them being taking a head off.
While Viswa is cultivating, a lot of things happened in the outside world.
On the same day that Viswa went to cultivate, at the hill-side village.
Many people gathered on the seashore as they saw Sir Warden slowly drag out a large egg-shaped object from the sea.
It is the same object that Mathur spoke of. Sir Warden could sense the demonic aura being emanated from it and he had a very cold expression.
He looked at the village chief and asked.
"Does anyone from the village touch this thing?"
"I don't think so, this is the first time we are seeing it." The Village chief shook his head hurriedly. Sir Warden looked at all of them and didn't know what to say.
He is familiar with this item. Even though this is the first time he saw this, he has some knowledge about it.
He touched it and it opened up like a flower. It revealed a bunch of slots all over inside and all these slots are empty.
He remembered the seed he found in the stomach of the shark. It fits perfectly in that slot.
He couldn't help but feel a bit distressed when he looked at a large number of slots. Particularly there is one slot in the middle of it all. It is twice the size of the rest and it seemed to be a bit more special.
"Call all the villages, if they had ever even seen this, I want to talk to them."
"Yes, Sir."
The Village chief immediately left and got ready to prepare the meeting.
While Sir Warden's investigation is progressing, The student union president has also seen some progress. He is currently investigating the barrier and he already had a lead.
He went to meet Pat, the lackey of Kai.
"Why do you want to meet me, President?" Pat asked in a polite tone.
"I know you are the one who loosened the barrier in the test and now I know that you are involved somehow in the attack against the orphanage. But I also know that you don't have enough authority to either mess with the test barrier or the Circle 1 forest barrier.
I want to know which person helped you."
"I don't know what you are talking about. Those are some very serious accusations you are throwing at me."
"I don't know how much Kai pays you to be his dick rider. But I am telling you whatever that comes to you when I am through with this investigation is not something you can bear. No amount of money Kai pays you would be good enough.
It isn't worth it.
So, you better open your mouth and tell me what I need."
"As I said, I don't know what you are talking about. I don't have anything else other than that to tell you."
The president sighed and paused for a moment. His posture loosened a bit as he slumped into the chair with a palm on his forehead.
"Okay, you know who Viswa is right? I don't have to tell you about it."
"Yes, I do."
"That guy is a bit of a loose cannon. But he is smart, very fucking smart. So being a smart loose cannon is a problem.
I am pretty sure you have seen at least one of his duels and you must know what he did to those people in those duels."
"Of course."
"Right now, that loose cannon is cultivating to reach the Middle Stage of the Elementary Level. He will be soon joining the ranks of Circle 2. And as far as I know, you tried to kill him and those kids once when you were in the village.
He believes that you are the one involved in him having to deal with those goats in the admission test.
He also believes that you are the one that is involved in the orphanage attacks. Of course, it applies to Kai as well.
But since Kai is ranked beneath him and he cannot challenge him, what do you think he is going to do?"
"What are trying to say?"
"Viswa went out and investigated this on his own. I don't know what his progress is, but as soon as he came back, he immediately went into the Circle 1 second half of the forest. He is desperate to reach Circle 2.
As far as I know, you are the only target he is after in Circle 2. So, once he reaches there you will be challenged to a duel and you would wish you were dead.
Just tell me what you know and I might be able to save you. But if you just resist me like this, no one can fucking save your life."
The student union president didn't stay there anymore. He went back to the student union room and went back to investigate.
Pat immediately ran to Kai.
"Young master, I think we are in trouble."
"What happened?"
"Mathur and his group members are missing and the student union president said that Viswa might have dealt with them. As soon as he came back he went to the Circle 2 forest. He is suspected to be breaking through.
He might be on to us by now."
