When all of the student exited the class and headed to the courtyard Alex finally sat up from his seat and walked toward the opened back door of the classroom. He walked slowly and arrived near the person all of the student greeted. His head hung low and his eye downcast like a thief caught by the police. He greeted her with a quiet voice
''Hey sis, how have you been ?''
He waited some seconds for harsh word flew out from his sister but nothing came. Then he slowly lifted his head and stared at his own sister face
Her dark green and almond shaped eye is slightly crescent like a bow. She has a wide forehead, prominent cheekbones, a narrow and high nose, pointed chin that's makes her face like a shape of heart. Her blonde hair falling a little above her neck in the backside and little below her collarbones on the frontside. Her hair is parted on a the side of her forehead making an angle. Alex can also see her trying to not to curl her lips but failing
'She's is trying no to laugh'
Alex relaxed and made a annoyed face as he spoke
''Hey, i was anxious you know, i thought you were annoyed because i did not come to see you when i arrived the academy and here you are enjoying seeing my miserable face''
Belle answered with a laugh
''I was annoyed, but it quiet cute when your head lowered & trying hard not to meet my eyes directly''
''Who are you calling cute !? I am not!'' Alex denied blushingly
''Yes, yes, you're cute'' Belle laughed again
Alex sighedand spoke
''Whatever you say''
''Yes~, what did Liv told you ?'' Belle playfully questioned Alex
''She told me to greet you and meet up with her in the courtyard''
''Then lets go. She should have two seat saved for us''
''Yes, lets hurry''
Two of them started to walk in the hallway. Belle caught up with Alex and held his right hand. Alex glanced up to his sister. He didn't noticed first but she is longer than him. May be by 2 or 3 centimetre ? She also had a killer figures. Bust a little bigger than Livia and tantalizing ass that any man could die for. Her thighs and long legs are looks perfect with her upper body. Alex retracted his gaze and asked
''Why are you holding my hand ? I am not a child anymore...''
''Can't i hold my little brother hand?''
Belle inched toward Alex and makes a pleading face
'Ugh!, that face is cheating!' Alex groaned inwardly but calm on outside. He turned his face away from her and uttered
''Do whatever you want''
Belle giggled and slowly brought her mouth near Alex's ear and wispered
''Besides, you were also ogled at my body for some second after i clasped your hand''
Alex shivered and refused in a suttering tone
''N-No, i was not!''
''Whatever you say~'' She winked at him playfully and continued walking
Alex's face turned red by her teasing. They continued walking while holding hand. After a few minutes they arrived the courtyard. The courtyard is crowded with many students. Many of them sitting on the chairs some of them also standing
When Alex and Isabella arrived the courtyard many student turned back and gazed at them. They murmured to each other seeing Alex and Isabella. Some of them also gasped at them seeing holding hands. Observing this Alex sighed inwardly and looked at his sister. Isabella is maintaining a calm and cool demeanor befitting a sutdent council president
He turned his head toward the courtyard and search for Olivia on the row of chair. He saw Olivia weaving her hand toward him while sitting on a chair. He beckoned his sister to follow him and walked toward Olivia
They walked in the direction of Olivia in between the row of students. Alex kept his eye straight to not meet people glares. Students gaze were mix of envy, jealousy, hate and recognization. Some students were also murmuring 'who's that guy walking with the presidents' 'what a lucky bastard' 'how dare he' etc.
They arrives near Olivia and saw two empty seat on her left side. Isabella winked at Olivia and told Alex to sat near Olivia. Alex gave her a blank look but knowing she won't budge from her decisions he sat near Olivia. Isabella sat near Alex. The students glare become more intense. Alex silently lowered his head to not meet any glare.
Giggle
He heard giggle from both of his side. He clenched his teeth and asked
''are you two having fun?''
''Nope~''
''Nope~''
Both answered his in the same time and same style
'They are in a perfect sync'
Alex sighed a exasperated sigh and straightened his head.
He looked toward both of them and spoke
''can you two please focus on the podium ? The vice principal has started the speech''
''Ok~''
''Yes~''
With this they also straightened their head and focused on the podium
The vice principal is a old man with white hair and midium height. Alex listened his speech a little but bored immeditely. He already know what is the oldman is talking about. He glanced at both of his side. Isabella and Olivia also looks bored while placed their hand on their cheek.
The vice principal concluded his speech and exited the stage. The staff cleared the stage and a teacher brought an equipment. It looked similar to a magician cane with a glowing ball hovering on it. The teacher released the scepter on the air and stepped on the edge of the podium. The scepter did not drop on the ground but float in the air approximately 1.5 metre from the ground
The new students seeing this for the first time gasped in surprise. Some murmured 'how can it float on its own ?' 'is that scepter alive?' etc. Alex also turned to his sister. Belle told him that it she only know its name and use. Name of scepter is 'staff of awakening' and it used for awakening unawakened people.
A students name called, the summoned student heads to the podium and at the teacher gestured him to stood near the scepter
The sceptre glowed in a blue light and faded after some time
The student remained in the stage for some time with a hollow look. After that he exited the stage with a sad face
Alex thought
'So the the awakened ability are not annouched here, i also have not seen anyone today using abilities. May be ability were only used in a specialized facility in the Academy to prevent any accidents ?'
Alex looked directly at the sceptre and spoke in mind 'Status'
Blue screen materialized
[Staff of Link]
[Grade - S]
[Ability - Universal Affix(S)]
[Ability descriprion - Connect an entity to Universe through which that entity will Awaken]
Looking at the status of the staff Alex shocked
'So this staff connect us to Universe ? Then we awaken abilities. Zeno told me on first time that Gods grants authority but did not grant powers. Powers are comes from Universe itself then. This is quiet amazing'
Alex shook his head and focused on the students who were granted powers and checking the details through the help of system. Many of them were awakened mundane super powers and a few of them granted a powerful ability
When Olivia's name called she sat up from the seat and nodded at him and Belle. Alex smiled at her and told her good luck. Belle playfully spoke
''Break a leg!''
Olivia smiled and confidently headed to the podium. She arrived near the scepter and closed her eye. The Sceptre glowed in same blue light and faded
Olivia had closed her eye and not moved from that place. A few second passed. When everyone worried that what happened and why she's not moving
An intense golden glow suddenly exploded from Olivia and covered the entire courtyard
