The people below the wooden podium waited and waited but the podium didn't fall.
Then they heard a voice.
"It will not fall"
The voice was cold and filled disdain.
The hall was really large and wide currently holding ten thousand people all murmuring and talking but the voice as if powered by millions of amplifiers reverberated through the hall powerfully.
But the people below that heard the voice didn't seem relieved or safe. The voice had a chilling effect making them unconsciously shiver and it had disdain deeply in it.
Some of the people in the underground world understood that the voice also had a third undertone.
Killing intent!
They couldn't help but wonder if they are really here to get murdered!
"This podium will not fall"
The voice repeated this time with image.
Several large screens appeared floating in front of the people playing the video of the speaker of the voice.
It is a lady. She looks in her mid thirties. She has a straight face with small lips pursed in thin lines and curved eyes looking sharp. Her beauty was out of this world like a piece of finely designed jewelry.
She is very tall with straight shoulders and a straight back obviously well trained. Her body shape made most of the young girls below jealous but they dared not show it out of fear of what the weird lady might do.
She has a cold expression with disdain showing strongly in her eyes like they were all just a bunch of useless trash.
"Welcome everyone to Powers school"
She said bluntly without any fluctuation on her face. She didn't seem like the person that dropped a new news to ten thousand people! No joy no sadness.
The people below all stare in confusion,disbelief and mockery.
Did this lady thinks they are a bunch of babies she can just deceive?
She is joking right?
Right?
Somebody please bring evidence of her bullshit!quick!
"What is powers school?"
A girl with two ponytails and thick glasses said breaking the odd silence that hung around.
The lady looked down at the girl that was among the crowd. The girl looked like an ant from her place but she could see her face perfectly well.
"We are getting to that miss Tracy. And...I welcome no interruptions"
The lady said coldly.
The girl with the ponytails knew this wasn't a joke everybody in the hall too knew it.
"I am Josephina Powers the dean of this school"
'so we can safely assume she own this school'the girl in the ponytails thought.
"Miss Tracy is too distracting" Josephina said suddenly scaring the girl.
"I didn't say anything!" The girl quickly defended herself
"You know what you did. I am giving you only one more chance or you will be cast to the detention room"
Josephina replied.
The people below had an inkling that it wasn't any normal school detention this means something more sinister.
Josephina swept her eyes from the ponytails girl to the whole crowd.
All of them unconsciously didn't dare to even think now.
"Mm good"
"Powers school is a training ground for you to learn how to control,refine,increase and learn about your powers"
The people below were drawn to the speech now. Who haven't wanted to be a superhero one time or the other.
"Every single one of you here have powers cause you belong to the supernatural creatures group"
" We have seven creatures in the world, witches and wizards, mermaids and mermen,werewolves,fairies, vampires, superhumans and humans.
The first six belongs to the supernatural group because their powers can't be explained scientifically they can only be explained supernaturally you will learn more about that in history.
The last which is the humans are too...delicate to be admitted so they are not aware of this school neither were you until you come of age which is eighteen years old"
The people below noticed this a long time ago but didn't know the actual age is eighteen since some of them looks younger or older in the hall.
"Some of you your parents are to never tell you of this because of the oath they sworn in the school but they know when you come of age you will naturally be admitted here.
While some of you your bloodline is just reawakening in your generation. For those of you that this is the case your parents have been hynotised to believe that you went to college"
Josephina words relieved the people below.
"At least dad will be alright and won't worry"
"That will make my mom very happy"
"Lil bro will be motivated now"
"I will be the little ones idol"
"The school breeds you and makes you great in return you help the school this is a must!
Some of the great leaders out there are doing it to help the humans they are too delicate to be left alone to do this and I know none of you will fail"
Josephina added some last words.
"No one fails in this school
They die"
Pin drop silence the whole hall dead silence as the students didn't dare to breath some of them are struggling to breath since Josephina aura burst out after saying those words like that mean nothing.
That's right death means nothing in here.
"I might never see my family again"
"I don't encourage anyone I will just say be the best in your set there are great rewards awaiting the person"
A glint flashed in Josephina eyes too fast for anyone to read.
"I will explain some of the most important rules,they are crucial for you to know...for you to live.
First rule- there are six people on the board in this school including myself. Never offend any one of them punishment for disobedience is death"
We didn't come to a school but a goddamn prison!
"Second rule-dont offend any of the upper class. You will understand that later but engrave it in your brain now that we practice power class in this school.
So you should train to be among the top to receive more privilege.
Third rule-...
