After confirming that everyone was seated, Mr. Inkoy began an introduction of the topic for the first lesson.
' Hey Phil, how many more minutes ', Rodiku asked.
' 12 minutes,hehe ', Phil answered.
' It's time ', Rodiku said with his eyes closed before standing to his feet.
The entire class stared at him as he gently left his seat, walking to the door.
' Where to ', Mr. Inkoy asked with a calm but audible tone.
' To the washroom ', Rodiku didn't even stop his movement as it wasn't questionable to go to the washroom without permission.
It was only questionable when you spend an unreasonable amount of time.
SWEEESHH!
Rodiku was now out of the classroom, standing with his back facing the door.
His eyes suddenly glowed purple.
He stared towards different directions, turning at different angles and even staring upwards.
After staring with his menacing looking eyes for over a minute, he closed his eyes and started walking through the corridor.
Just then, two boys came out of a class ahead of him.
The three of them entered the same elevator and ascended to the sixth floor.
From there, they climbed up the roof through a window.
The two boys looked so excited and confident.
Once they reached the roof, the two boys sat in a cross leg format and clasped their hands in a way that makes it look like they were meditating.
Rodiku at this point looked so worn out as he was sweating with his face looking so pale and the purple glow in his eyes dimming.
He looked like something was zapping his life force out of him.
He squatted behind the two boys who were meditating and placed a hand each on their shoulders.
After a minute, his skin color was returned to normal and the purple glow in his eyes had brightened up.
He kept his hands on their shoulders and closed his eyes.
' How many minutes left ', he thought.
' 8 minutes left ', Phil answered.
' Hmm, it should be enough ', he muttered.
He continued squatting behind the two boys who were beginning to look weak and worn out, still with his hands on their shoulders.
After four minutes,...
FWWOOOMM! FWWOOOMM! FWWOOOMM!...
Multiple students soared from several windows to the roof top.
They were fifteen boys with three girls, making a total of eighteen.
They were all first years expect for two boys who were second years.
Those two were familiar faces unlike the other sixteen who Rodiku never even noticed before.
The familiar two were Davis and Joe, from the beat up incidence that occurred not even an hour ago.
Joe reluctantly, walked to Rodiku who was now on his feet, staring at the many innocent faces with no sympathy or anything of that sort.
Joe stood really close to Rodiku's right, whiles the rest formed a single file with Davis and one of the girls standing aside.
Rodiku stared at the students who were in a single file with smiles and excitement on their faces and shook his head.
' This is what happens to you when you are at the bottom of the food chain. I will gain so much power that, no such thing can ever happen to me ', Rodiku thought with a serious face.
At this point, the two boys who were meditating were now lying lifeless on the roof top with their flesh looking pale and wrinkled whiles bleeding from all their orifices.
Even though they were dead, their eyes were wide open with an expression of shock and dread on their faces.
' How many minutes left ', Rodiku questioned internally.
' Less than 3 minutes ', Phil answered.
' It's time ', Rodiku muttered with a wide grin on his face, his eyes still looking menacing with a bright purple glow.
Rodiku stared at Davis who immediately sprinted across the roof top, jumping up after reaching the edge.
He soared hundred feet into the air after which he teleported himself hundreds of feet higher.
He was now almost a thousand feet above the roof top and over a thousand feet above ground level.
He suddenly dived down with his head leading his whole body down like a missile.
He wore a wide grin on his face with his eyes brimming with confidence.
HAAAAAA!!!
He screamed in excitement as his body accelerated over the seconds.
At that same time,...
ZZRRRRH! ZZRRRRH! ZZRRRRH!...
White beams were vaporizing cells out of the heads of those who stood in a single file.
Rodiku's eyes were now glowing white and purple, with white dominating.
One by one, he shot beams through the heads of the students, leaving wide holes in their heads with blood and brain matter flowing out.
One by one, their bodies fell limply on the roof top.
HAAAAAA! BANG! SPLASH!
Davis finally collided with the ground, head first.
His entire head was mashed into flesh and blood whiles several bones broke and bent at insane angles.
' Aaaaah! '
' Shit! What the! '
' Damn! '
' Aaaaaaah! Look!'
The few people who witnessed the head-smashing event were completely startled and taken by surprise.
At the same instant, Rodiku shot a beam through the head of the other female who was standing in the single file, spilling blood and brain matter all over.
Looking around, corpses lying in fountains of blood was the only thing visible, in addition to the other female who stood aside.
The entire roof top had a strong stench of blood.
The female student who had a long red hair and a cute face was the only surviving soul on the roof top.
Her facial expressions and reactions showed that she was witnessing something entirely different from what was actually occuring in her environment.
She was indeed completely ignorant and oblivious of her surroundings.
Rodiku walked to her, maneuvering his way through the many corpses on the roof top.
Once he reached her, he placed his hand on her chest.
The purple glow in his eyes became brighter in an instant.
Within thirty seconds, purple lines were streaking out of his eyes as the glow kept increasing.
The girl suddenly began bleeding from all her orifices, her skin turning pale and wrinkled.
She lost every bit of energy in her body and fell limply on the roof top.
She looked old like Joe and the other two who came to the roof top with Rodiku.
Rodiku looked so clean without a stain of blood since he kept his distance.
He looked at all the corpses on the roof top and quickly escaped through one of the windows after seeing a teacher heading to the roof top, using the see through ability of his impeccable eyes.
He used the elevator to get back to the second floor.
When he got there, he saw many students moving from their classrooms and heading out.
It was a perfect cover for why he was late from the washroom.
Of course, Rodiku knew this would happen and planned to use it to his advantage.
So now he didn't have to worry about explaining to the teacher why he took so long as the teacher would assume he went to check out the incidence.
' Like I said Phil, I don't want to get overly excited over here. So wait till I get back to the dormitory before giving me my rewards ', Rodiku said internally.
' I get it. Don't worry about it, just hope everything goes as you planned. Else, you're toast ', Phil replied.
' Don't worry, no sweat at all. It's all going to be like I planned, hehe ', Rodiku said internally with a slight chuckle.
Seeing so many students rushing out, Rodiku also headed out to prevent any suspicions.
There were already so many students gathered around the unidentified corpse.
Rodiku made sure to destroy their SADs as he suspected the authorities could use them to track the event.
So he used his heat vision to destroy all of them before beginning his massacre.
There were hundreds of students gathering around every minute and the teachers were trying their best to keep them away from the crime scene.
Some of the teachers who could fly ascended the building and found the other corpses all lying in a pool of blood and brain matter.
' What on Earth '
' This happened right under our noses '
' Shit! This is bad '
' Report immediately to the authorities '
The teachers voiced out after reaching the roof top.
*** 25 minutes later ***
Rodiku stood in front of a door which slid open in the next instant, granting him access.
He entered the room and the door closed up.
He was back to his room, just like everyone else.
After the teachers reported to the higher ups, an assembly was held.
The school principal Mr. Victor addressed the entire school, explaining to them that the classroom block has been closed till further notice.
He didn't really go into details about the cause but everyone had an idea of what the cause was.
So the students were prohibited from going to the classroom block until further notice for the purpose of undisrupted investigation.
' Haaa... This is very good. I needed a break from school ', Rodiku said, dropping his bag on the floor and sitting on his bed.
' Lazy boy, you came here two days ago and attended class just yesterday ', Phil reminded.
' Yeah, it's been too long already. Do you know how many seconds make up two days? ', Rodiku questioned.
' Uhuh, 172800 seconds makes two days ', Phil answered.
' You see, it's been too long. Hehe... ', Rodiku joked.
Rodiku stood up and changed up quickly.
He laid down on his bed and recalled the events of the morning.
After Phil made the deal with him, he began thinking of ways to complete the quests without leaving tracks behind.
His brain was really running at the speed of a computer, finding solutions and the possible flaws they had.
He asked Phil to give him more information about the impeccable eyes as he believed it could do more than what he knew.
After a few discoveries, Rodiku came up with a perfect plan.
After going out of the classroom, he activated the impeccable eyes.
Using the see through ability, he set his sight on several students.
He used the personal info ability to know their stats and ranks.
Rodiku looked for fifteen delta ranked students to complete the third quest.
Whiles he was searching for targets, he saw a lady who's ability caught his attention.
Her ability was called energy tank, which literally made her an energy tank.
She was packed with excess energy, which she could share with others.
Rodiku also sighted Davis and Joe who were second year students.
He planned to use Davis who was a peak charley ranked to complete the first quest and use Joe to complete the second quest.
He knew absorbing energy from Joe alone would not be enough since all the abilities of the impeccable eyes used up a lot of energy.
So he decided to use Angy, the energy tank girl and two other guys for energy supply.
That summed up to twenty targets.
He set his sight on the two boys he planned to use for energy supply and casted an illusion on them.
From their point of view, their teacher after introducing the new topic, decided that the entire class was looking so tensed and needed to do some meditation.
The teacher asked everyone to move to the roof top.
They all moved to the sixth floor using elevators, after which they climbed to the roof top through a window.
After reaching the roof top, their teacher asked them to sit in a cross leg format in a single file.
The entire class sat in a cross leg format, clasped their hands and closed their eyes.
The teacher told them he was going to infuse disruptive energy into the air to see those who could keep up their focus for long.
That was what they witnessed, only to notice everything change the last second before they were rid of the last drop of energy in their pale looking bodies.
It was in their final moments that they realized the entire class wasn't there with them.
Meanwhile, after Rodiku got to the roof top with them and they started meditating, he started absorbing energy from them.
He used their energy to cast different illusions on the remaining eighteen targets.
They all left their classrooms to the roof top, seeing different scenarios.
For the fifteen delta ranked, their teachers asked them to follow them to the roof top because they wanted to teach them how to sense their environment without the use of the five senses.
They were overly excited knowing that if they successfully learn such a skill, it would make them immune to ambush.
Each student was seeing themselves in a single file alongside all their classmates.
It really took a lot of energy for Rodiku to maintain so many illusions at the same time.
He was only able to achieve such a feat only because of the difference in power.
Rodiku was a beginner beta ranked whereas they were delta and charley ranked.
His impeccable eyes were also way too powerful for any of them to overcome.
Rodiku being a beta ranked had way more energy than all of them combined, so it was quite absurd that he would absorb energy from them.
But that was not the case.
Rodiku discovered that he could absorb energy from living things in two ways.
He could absorb just the energy which wouldn't be much or he could absorb a mixture of their energy and hp which is their life force.
The life force had more power than the raw energy but of course comes at cost of the life of the victim.
So the energy Rodiku was absorbing from them was a combination of their raw energy plus their life force which was enough to power his abilities.
As for Joe, his illusion was something else.
He received a message from Davis, asking him to come to the roof top.
He quickly left the classroom, with the excuse of needing to go to the washroom.
He went to the roof top as fast as he could.
He saw Davis standing alone and immediately went to stand by him.
Davis began telling him about some plans of his.
He stood beside Davis, listening attentively to everything he was saying.
He didn't feel his energy leave his body, neither did he notice the blood dripping out of all his orifices.
At least not until his last drop of life force was about to leave his body.
That was when he felt his body falling limply but he couldn't really understand anything as it was too late.
As for Davis, the class was going to have a test of courage and fearlessness.
It was just his kind of thing.
A perfect time to show everyone how fearless he really was.
The students just had to jump off the six storey building with their heads facing downwards.
A few students jumped off, only to straighten themselves mid air in a bid to protect their heads.
The teacher had a teleportation ability like Davis so he teleported them back up before contact was made.
Davis seeing how gutless his mates were, sprinted across the roof top and jumped off.
He teleported himself hundreds of feet higher to increase the death rate should he make contact with the ground.
Of course, he did that to show how fearless he was.
When he was ten feet away from the making contact with the ground, he saw himself get teleported back to the roof top.
At least that was what he saw, only for his senses to go blank in the next instant.
Everything went blank at once, which was him dying after he actually made contact with the ground.
All twenty victims were completely oblivious of reality, otherwise they could have survived.
Also, none of them had an ability related to seeing through illusions and even if they did, Rodiku's illusion ability could have effect on any beta ranked, which was way out of their league.
Their deaths were inevitable the moment they were chosen as they were chosen.
' Sigh ', Rodiku sighed in relief after confirming that he left no traces nor loopholes.
' I must really commend you for your final move. After pulling off such an intelligent act, you have activated the intelligence stat. That was a smart move', Phil couldn't help but praise Rodiku for his use of intelligence.
' Well... I have such a brilliant system in me, so how can I be unintelligent ', Rodiku said teasingly.
' Huh? Err... Yeah! Of course, I... Hehe ', Phil stuttered, feeling flattered.
After Rodiku killed everyone except Angy, he made his final move.
He discovered from Phil that his illusion would function as long as it has an energy source.
Also, the energy doesn't necessarily have to come from him.
Angy's ability made it possible for her to recover from any loss of energy at a fast pace which made it look like she never runs out of energy.
Though, it had a downside which was, if her body completely runs out and refills over and over consecutively, her body cells would break down.
Rodiku immediately created a story for his next illusion.
A masked man appeared in the fields out of no where.
He focused his crimson glowing eyes on twenty random students in the classroom block.
The students move to the roof top under the effect of the illusion.
Then he made Laroir, one of the two boys who supplied energy to Rodiku who had an energy absorption ability, completely drain the energies of Joe, Xiao and Angy.
After which he deliberately gave it all to Jimmy, a delta ranked who had an energy blast ability.
Under the illusion of the masked man, Jimmy blew holes into the heads of the other fourteen delta ranked on the roof top.
Xiao completely run out of energy, which lead to his death.
Now only Jimmy and Davis were left on the roof top.
Under the influence of the man's illusions, Davis jumped off the roof, teleported hundreds of feet into the sky and crush landed with his head.
It was a sudden death for Davis.
Not long after that, Xiao also blew a hole through his own head.
The man after seeing that they were all dead, disappeared in an instant.
This was Rodiku's cover story, which he implanted into Angy.
He made the illusion in a way that it would cover the entire CSA land and air space.
He implanted it into Angy and made her the energy source.
The entire air and land space of CSA is very wide, so it really drained everything out of Angy.
She fell unconscious but her ability to recover any loss of energy almost instantly kicked in.
So now her body was doing everything possible to recover her energy but the illusion was absorbing it immediate it entered her.
Which made her remain in her state of unconsciousness.
From Rodiku's calculations, it was only a matter of one week before her cells would completely break down.
That was more than enough time for CSA to conduct an investigation.
As long as the detective is a Beta ranked, Rodiku's story is exactly what he'll discover.
But of course, Rodiku considered the fact that some of his targets may be coming from highly prestigious families which would force the school to hire an Alpha ranked detective.
In that case, he would be busted for sure.
Anyway, he had that under control as well.
After receiving his rewards from completing all the quests as well as Phil's deal, he would definitely reach alpha rank.
Then he would go to the hospital to update the level of his illusion implanted in Angy.
He knew Angy would be well guarded as they may see her as their only shot at catching who ever was responsible for the massacre.
So he really needed to plan his moves accurately and quickly.
* Sigh *
Rodiku sighed after remembering that the job wasn't done yet.
' Phil, I'm ready for my rewards now ', Rodiku muttered with his face full of expectations.
' I thought you'd never asked ', Phil replied.

Rodiku took several minutes to digest the informations displayed in front of him.
He went through the entire thing three times as he wanted to be sure he wasn't just seeing things.

Rodiku stared at his current stats for a while, analysing how he should distribute his spare stats points.
He also noticed there were two more aspects included.
Phil mentioned the intelligence stat earlier on, so he expected it.
But the mental fortitude, he didn't expect.
' I think I already know what mental fortitude implies, so I won't be needing any explanation ', Rodiku stated.
' Oh but there's more to your mental fortitude than the average ', Phil replied with a mystical tone.
' Normally, mental fortitude is just the strength of your mind and it's ability to remain stable and resist manipulation. But,... In your case, mental fortitude prevents anything of any kind from manipulating your mind processes without your concern. Which means you're now resistant to any form of illusions as long as it is not stronger than your mental fortitude. Also, you can not have dreams unless you want to. Dreams manipulates the mind to create virtual realities and that violates the principles of your mental fortitude. So unless you decide to dream, it just won't happen.
And even when you dream, your conscience would have absolute control, allowing you to make decisions fully on your own. Mental fortitude also helps you see through lies unless the liar is super super good at it, hehe. Also, technological systems that would automatically scan your brain for certain informations would experience an error if they act on you. Of course , unless you give the permission. I think that's enough information, you'll discover more on your own ', Phil gave a lengthy explanation.
