There was a total of twenty different Mutants that had thesame ability as Selena. They weren't fighters as expected. Only those like Selena, who decided to learn to fight, were used on the battlefield. All of them are not involved in this mission. Bradley Stones was only able to call them because of their power to find the truth and after that they would go away.
Everyone entered a line. It was a total of twenty lines. Looking at the line everyone knew it was going to be a long thing and might not even end Today. But it was faster than most people had expected.
The Mutants would just touch you and yours is to reply either.
"No" or "Yes"
The question they would ask was if you knew anything relating to the fire and as expected most of the students said no and this was also frustrating for the mutants.
As for Miller's group. Lillian didn't have a clue of what had happened or how the fire started, she doesn't even have an idea of the Werewolves base underground, so she wasn't exactly a problem. As for Jacob, he was standing in line with his fellow students. Behind him was a Werewolf, he knew that Werewolf could hear his heartbeat, so he tried as much as possible to remain calm. Benjamin Carter and Sophie Smith had their ears all heightened to hear each and every Students heartbeat.
If a student heart races, it means they know something and they would have to deal with it later. As for Jacob when it was concerning the mind control stuff to tell a truth, he wasn't much bothered, he knew that as a Werewolf he naturally had the ability to resist any mind control from them. This was what helped Werewolves due to evolution when they used to fight Vampires and now all Werewolves naturally had the resiatance to mind control. Due to how the Vampires abused it on them, their brains evolved or in other words adapted to the situation.
Turning to Alex, Miller knew he had no problem. He was a Vampire and naturally had a strong resistance over such a thing. As for Watson who was the only natural person in the group. Catherine had used magic on him. With a single touch, she had effected an ability on Watson. It would enable him not to be Influenced by the Mind Control. As for Miller, the System had informed him that as a Throsk'Bok, he naturally can't be mind control by mere mortals like mutants, only beings like gods.
Miller could see Jason standing in a line by his right with his face bent down. He didn't know what is wrong with Jason and why he was like that. His biggest guess was that it was related to Emily's Situation.
'Or have they found out about Harry Kenner and the other three boy's death.' Miller thought. Because surprisingly, nobody has questioned them about the situation yet.
Thinking about this Miller started to wonder maybe Brandon already knew. Brandon's mutant power was future perception, so maybe he had already seen this before it even happened. Thinking about this Miller was wondering if Brandon would use that to blackmail them later. Besides, he has no clue if Brandon actually knows. He doesn't even know how that Ability works.
Lillian was in front of Miller and had been quiet all this time and she turned and looked at Miller and said in a sad tone: "Do you have any updates? About Emily?" She asked.
Miller: "No." He replied with a sad tone.
"Hi, Miller." The System said to him inside his brain.
"What is it?" Miller asked.
"It is concerning your reward, wouldn't you like to see it?" The System replied.
"Nop. Not yet." Miller said. "But why did i get to choose a reward."
"Miller, like I said, all these are an Algorithm." The System replied.
Miller just sighed and didn't say anything.
Moments later, it was finally now Miller's turn. He brought out his hand and gave a handshake to the lady in front of him. It was Selena. Selena had a huge smile on her face.
"Miller Edward." Selena said. "The Cho..."
She paused and didn't complete her sentence, Miller's eyes opened in shock. How did she know he was the Chosen One. Selena on the other hand had seen Miller's holographic images in the Celestial HARMONIZER before it teleported. (Chapter 82). At the time, she couldn't remember where she had seen that face, but looking at Miller, she remembered it all. She would never forget the Chosen One. Although, she still doesn't understand why Kalzifrax deem him so important.
"Do you know anything relating to the fire?" She also asked while activating her Influence ability.
"No." Miller replied.
"Hi, Miller. Why don't you add her to one of your Minions?" The System advised Miller.
Miller knew by now that if he wants to add someone as his minion, there must be a physical touch and right now his hand and Selena's hand were touching each other.
"Not interested." Miller replied.
"But, Miller, a Minion helps." The System said.
Miller didn't reply him.
Selena on the other hand dragged Miller by his wrist and brought his ears close and whispered to him:
"I hope you kept that Celestial HARMONIZER safe. Kalzifrax would be coming for it." She said.
Immediately, when she said those words, there was one worried thought that the System had:
'Kalzifrax, that name sounds familiar. But I can't remember. Is he my creator? Or is he the one who wiped out my memories?' The SYSTEM pondered those questions.
The System knew how he could Influence Miller to find out Information from Selena. As Miller left the hall, green words flickered at his Retina:
[New Quest Received!]
[Know everything Selena knows about Kalzifrax]
[Quest Reward]
[MNEMOKINESIS SKILL LEVEL UP!]
[Coins Expectancy]
[Poor: 100]
[Average: 200]
[Excellent: 400]
'Well, it's been a long time since I leveled up that skill,' Miller thought with a smile.
