Felix and the team wetness some serious shock after hearing what the mistress said, after the disappearance of the lady the door unlocked and the team headed towards the door to take their leave, their swordman man was waiting for them outside of the big hall, and the minute the came out he went toward them and handed them a paper with the same number 187,
"this is badly confusing and it's not making sense anymore" Felix said to himself after getting handed the paper, the the swordman started walking through the hallway and the members followed, after that he stopped infront of another door with nothing written on the top and he pointed at the door and started to walk away, the members opened the door and it was a huge and super large cafeteria hall,
but they noticed something the students number decreased which left them in a total discomfort, they looked through the tables and each table had number the uncomfortable thing is that some of the table had an X drawn on it with an ink of blood which might mean the team of that table been eliminated, they looked around and eventually they found their table
they sat on the table and afterwards two 7 maids with plates came and gave each one of them his/her plate and they left "finally the lunch" Luke said letting out an exhausted sight, "I guess so, now may we eat?" Freya said and then they started eating, nobody spoke while eating.
after few minutes the the usual piano started to play, which meant that the lunch break is over,
before the students could leave the headmaster appeared suddenly as the usual but nobody was shocked this time as all students got used to it,
"I hope you're having a good day so far, well congratulations on completing lesson one, lesson one was not that hard, it was just to open your minds" as the headmaster was talking Felix in the front row raised his hand to talk,
the headmaster noticed Felix turning to him as a gesture of letting him speak and Felix said "headmaster, aren't we supposed to learn from the masters? how are we gonna find out everything on our own and that if we fail by a chance that might threaten our life"
the headmaster smiled at felix saying "I highly expected a brave student to ask this question after the 1st lesson and I believe that this generation will do it just fine, remember use you mind" after that the headmaster disappeared
and the students or the teams left the cafeteria, after eating their lunch and as the usual the swordmen was waiting outside and each team reunited with their guide or swordman, this time Felix and his team went to the garden, it was a very beautiful garden with flowers of different kinds, as they were in the garden looking around suddenly a man appeared holding a black box between his hands and he said
"hello, students I'll be your master for this lesson or lesson 2, this lesson is much easier than our previous lesson, don't worry we ain't making diamonds out of these flowers, it's much easier" then the master opened the box and there was 7 sharp knifes in the box he handed a knife to each one of the team members then he put a paper on the ground and disappeared, the team grabbed the paper and read it the paper said
"today's lesson is so easier, only one has to die today! Good luck, you only have 6 hours, remember one has to die or you'll all die"
"what? no but they most be joking" Sebastian said in a annoyed tone not believing anything, as the team were busy looking what an explanation Freya suddenly Ran away from them and distanced herself "Freya what happened?" Sebastian asked her, and she replied "I'm sorry but there's no trust in here, they wanted us in teams to put against each other"
soon after the rest of the team started to distance themselves from one another thinking as if someone will stab them, Felix and Sebastian were the only ones left, each one of team stayed in full attention excepting anything to happen anytime soon
"guys, can we stop this stupidity and actually work?" Sebastian said trying to gather the group members in a circle so they can discuss but isn't helpful,
"Theo don't be stupid let's talk and discuss it, maybe it's not how we thought it is or it's some sort of a puzzle that we need to solve" Sebastian said to Theo but Theo weren't ready for anything yet saying " really you think you and felix can outsmart me? no I only met you yesterday why would I trust you or felix" Theo said
felix sighted boredly at Sebastian trying So hard to gather the group again but they weren't listening to him as each one was keeping him/herself away for the other that's when felix sat down on the ground looking as carefree as ever
"these scaredy cats are not gonna listen to you so let them die" felix said "what do you mean let them die?" Sebastian replied
"I mean they don't wanna help us figure this so I guess we'll all die together"
"Felix if you're ready to die, some of us aren't" Sebastian replied to felix and felix didn't reply to him he instead giggled in a mockery tone saying "alright then you can kill me to survive"
"kill you? are you insane I'd never kill someone" Sebastian replied.
After a while Sebastian looked at the hour glass which obviously indicated that 4 hours had passed by. Then Felix got up and shooted calling the rest of the group "guys the lesson is over, I killed Sebastian" then he gestured to Sebastian to hide behind a tree, hesitantly the group members who had been hiding showed up one by one after hearing felix, " you killed what?" Luke said to felix with bit of tears in his eyes soon after the others joined glaring at felix and then felix turned to the tree signalling Sebastian to come out, "I did not kill anyone, but you, you dummies are gonna get us all killed with your stupidity, can we now work?" Felix asked the group which they agreed
"OK, let's pay attention to the paper, the paper said one has to die today, but did not mention who is that one" felix said
"even if you didn't mention any names it's obvious what they mean" Rae replied to felix which he let out a sigh saying "no, that's not what I meant, they did not mention if the supposed to die is a human or an animal did they?" felix said
"that's right, they didn't say that someone of us has to die, they just said one has to die" Luke said
After the group discussed they decided to look for their prey, the garden was more like a jungle than a garden with a lot of trees and other plants after that the group found a Gazelle, and captured it
"no but guys, do we really have to kill her?" Rae asked in a sad tone and Felix replied to her "well, we can kill you instead" they all looked at felix who was totally unbothered with his usual cold expressions and before anyone could know it, he stabbed the poor animal twice and killed it, after animal died all of a sudden the master appeared saying "congratulations on completing lesson two, you're doing great so far" Before the master could finish his talk "Eloise interrupted him saying "so, lesson two and what did we benefit? we just killed a poor animal" the head master looked at Eloise saying "Yes, that animal isn't poor, it was the only animal in this area and this gazelle killed a lot of animals too" the master Saif leaving them in confusion then he continued "a hero's mission is to put the Villains to an end and now you guys saved a lot of worms and butterflies and ants from this creature"
"This doesn't make sense, are you saying she used to eat them?" Rae asked the master and he replied "yes, it's a cursed gazelle and not an ordinary one, now its time for dinner and afterwards the bedtime, see you in lesson 3" the master said before disappearing
