Even as the ladies and gentlemen stood and positioned themselves in lines to be checked according to orders, one of them could still be seen smirking as he was apparently lost in thought.
He was a thin young man with hair as dark as coal , His eyes were the purest form of amber resembling the middle colour of a traffic light. His skin was the purest form of tan , a creamy chocolate . Even though his physique wasn't the one that would make the ladies scream and drool , he at least had the looks of a moderate man.
As he stood all by himself, a guard approached him and tapped him on the shoulder.
The young man immediately jolted out of the reverie.
" Didn't you hear the orders? ", the bulky guard barked.
" What order? ", the young man asked timidly.
The guard observed the young man and shook his head . How could a young man like this be so absent minded that he didn't hear the orders?. What could he have been thinking? .
" You've been asked to join the others in the lines to be searched ".
The tanned skin young man turned towards the line and heaved a sigh of exasperation and impatience as he already knew about this beforehand.
The museum elders were conducting a search to find out which of the students was using the abominable dark magic which was still leaving it's traces around the room.
But the original cause of his impatience was because he already knew the outcome of this whole charade.
" Hope I won't get bored out of undue over excitement for the future.
Sigh!.
The guard wondered what caused the young man's sigh. But that was the least of his concerns as it seemed that the young man was disobeying a direct order.
" Get to the line ", he barked loudly even startling some of the others in the room.
The young man dashed towards the line.
Crash!. As he hurried towards the line, he hit another person in front of him.
He almost landed to the ground but the person caught him in the nick of time with an unimaginable quick reflexes.
" There, there , now young man you have to walk carefully next time ", the person still holding him in the arms said.
The voice was a rich and calm one belonging to a female. Tanned skin stared at her , taking in the full descripance of her body.
Her long dark hair fell behind her nearly touching her buttocks. Her face was oval in shape with her eyes, nose and mouth fitting perfectly unto it.
Her eyes were red as crimson and looked as though they would shine brightly in any darkness . Her skin was pale and porcelain. She was wearing a black gothic dress. Her beauty was one that could only be rivaled by models.
But the young man wad not to be fooled by her looks as he already knew who she was.
Nobira. The seventh ranking knight in the illumination. Infact she was the cause of the lasting effects of dark magic around the museum.
He knew that the person holding him right now was amongst the most dangerous people in this novel and that he had to avoid Her.
Nobira - an offspring of the last celestial vampires on earth brimming with a lot of power. Infact she couldn't control her piercing aura to the fullest. Even though she tried suppressing it, some little bit still managed to escape. So the aura she was emanating was enough to remove all the bravery and courage in his heart.
Her lack of full control over it was the cause of the traces of dark magic that hung around. Also to be noted was the fact that she was the one who put all the museum explorers to sleep using her hypnosis .
He gulped , remembering a scene in the story and the damage she had done.
Releasing himself from her hands, He bowed to thank her.
" Thanks ma'am, I'll be careful next time ".
"Hm-hmm", she nodded in response.
His heart thumped in fear as he made away in a bid to get away from her.
But she grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back . His heart almost jumped out of mouth in fear .
' What did I do now ?', ' Why do I have to be confronted by such a monster at the beginning of my time here ?'.
" Hello, I'm Nobira ", she said and extended her hands towards him for a handshake.
Her took her hands even though he wasnow visibly sweating all over.
" Ummmm. .... I'm. ..... ", and then another shocker hit him.
He didn't know his name! .
In fact, He knew nothing about the body he had transmigratted into...
