Chapter 20 - Main Quest

In the Dark space...

The boy got up slowly trying to understand his situation while his head felt like it was going to explode..

For a few seconds he just stared foolishly into the distance, but then he recalled what just happened as he shivered remembering the pain he had just felt...

'Damn you Astrick! ' he swore because he felt that whatever just happened was caused by Astrick's breakthrough for some reason...

*Sigh*

"At least it wasn't for nothing" he said as he can now sense Astrick's general mood somehow and he can feel that his powers could be used now in many more ways to affect Astrick's surroundings, he can also feel that his ability to manipulate Astrick's thoughts has gotten better, which would be a great help for his future plans for Astrick...

' Didn't think I'm going to start my plans this quick, but it's good, I'll just move things forward a little....huh?, oh..'

Thinking about his next moves, the boy realized that he forgot to check on Mary's condition... thankfully she was fine as he could see her eyelids moving and her eyebrows furrowing, so he knew she'll wake up soon, and who knows, she might wake up with something new like he did....

....

Meanwhile Astrick had just woke up and was getting ready to leave his room with a smile on his face...

He was happy, how couldn't he be? when he had just broke through and gotten stronger, although it also means he's one rank closer to his talent limits...

Falling into deep thoughts and recalling that he only is one or two small ranks away from reaching his limit and being unable to get any stronger, Astrick's happiness turned into frustrations while his smile was switched into a frown.

Shaking his head to get all the negativity out of it , Astrick finally reached his classroom...

'Hm.. I'm early' looking at his watch Astrick realized it was very early for his class, he didn't know what to do for the time till the class begins so he just decided to go in and wait inside...

Opening the door he was surprised to see that there were some students already inside...

Astrick could recognize some of them like Adam, Mia and some other students that Astrick doesn't remember their names but most importantly, Astrick was able to see the person he hates the most, Jack....

Trying to avoid eye contact, Astrick was heading to his seat with his eyes locked on it as if it was the only thing in his vision.

But his vision was suddenly blocked by someone before he was able to reach it, not that it would stop that person if he reached it anyway...

That person was of course Jack, Astrick just looked at him with no emotions shown on his face like he was a robot as he thought to himself,

'Hoo... here we go again, it's gonna start all over from the beginning....'

It's worth knowing that the first person to start bullying Astrick was Jack and that he was the one that encouraged others to bully Astrick and even threatened those who didn't hate Astrick to do so, as there were a lot of students that loved Astrick for helping them in many things, but since he didn't have any power, they had to join the other side...

"Where do you think you're going LTB?"

Jack finally opened his mouth saying those silly words as loud as he could as if he was trying to make everyone in the class hear his words...

Which somehow worked as everyone but Adam and Mia looked their way hoping for some drama to enjoy.

Although for some reason Jack looked a bit disappointed as he looked towards Adam's way, noticing Jack's mood and the way he looked, Astrick was able to get a bit of a conclusion about what's happening...

'Heh... loyal dog trying to satisfy his master huh...' Astrick thought to himself giving Jack a sympathized look which seemed to get on Jack's nerves as he started spitting out some shit like a mentally ill person...

"What's that look on your face you fu*king loser? do you think you're better than me or something...the few months without me must have made you forget your place so let me remind you..."

After hearing the last sentence Astrick's vision blacked out for a second as he was sent a few steps back then came back with a big amount of pain while the air was knocked out of him as he felt the sweet metallic taste of blood in the back of his throat, he tried his best to hold it in but eventually had to spit it out as one of his legs gave up and he fell down on his knee...

He tried to get up but failed miserably as he heard the laughter of Jack and a few giggles from the other students along with some of their mumblings...

-"Haah?, we were hoping for some drama but that's what we get? how in the world can someone be that weak "

-"You're right... I thought he would put up more of a fight cause of the way he looked at Jack but it seems like it was all just an act, hahaha what a loser..."

Hearing the words Astrick has been hearing for the last five years and thought he'd never have to hear again so soon, he slowly put his head down towards the ground as his expressions were hidden from everyone in the room...

If someone could see the way Astrick's look right now they would only have one thought...

Lunatic monster.

His face expression was completely distorted with anger and a crazy look on his face...

It seemed as if Astrick was on the line of going completely mad but thankfully a male robotic voice got him out of his dark thoughts as it said.
