"But one fact remains, he didn't attack us, and he's heading for Xethen Empire who was responsible for the attack on this city," Gabriel said.
The door opened and immediately all of them turned towards the door as a boy stepped in.
The door was definitely locked and they all knew it, even though it was an offense to lock the dorm room doors, the students did it because they knew none of the knights would come check on them as they had other things to do.
"Xavier..." Gabriel mouthed as he saw the boy.
Xavier took the number three spot when they were still dueling each other, the group had seen him fight and they knew he was strong, but none of the students had ever seen his face.
Ever since he came to the academy his face had been covered leaving only his eyes, covering like that was not allowed except for Xavier and the students don't know why and none of them could ask him because he wasn't a people person.
"How did you...were you spying on us?" Leia asked.
"Are you angry, just now you were spying on the senior knights" Xavier said as he closed the door.
"Huh!!" all the students exclaimed in surprise.
"How did you know we were, wait...have you been following us since then?" Lily asked.
"What are you guys planning to do?" Xavier asked ignoring Lily's question.
"Nothing, we are planning nothing," Leia said a little angry with the way Xavier was acting.
"Ohh, I also saw a guy with wings, and since all of you are here and Ray isn't, I'm guessing that was Ray, how come he had wings!" Xavier asked.
"What are you talking about, Ray isn't here because the–knights needed him for something" Ivan spoke.
"I can tell when someone is lying, and I knew that was Ray, but he's not longer the Ray we knew, I'm not here to cause you guys trouble but if you are planning to look for him, I know where he is," Xavier said.
"You know where he is, how would you know that?" Gabriel asked.
"You don't need to know, I know you guys well, and even though the knights told you to stay in the dorms you would go after Ray," Xavier said.
"Why do you want to help us?" Lily asked.
"No reason, I really don't have a solid reason to help you guys, but I kinda understand the situation Ray is in now, and right now he's on his way to Xethen empire, we better hurry if we hope to catch up to him"
"We can't possibly catch up, he's flying right?" Dan spoke.
"He's not flying anymore, though we can't catch up to him till he reaches Xethen empire"
"Huh!! how did you know he's not flying, you can't see him, you are not a mage so you can't sense him, then how do you know exactly where he is?" Leia asked.
"She's right, and besides you don't speak to anyone, even if they speak to you, you don't reply in words, you only use hand signs, then why now?" Ivan asked.
"I told you I understand the situation he's in, if you guys don't need my help I'll leave, and I won't report to the knights, and you guys know they won't question me, so bye," Xavier said as he turned around.
"W-Wait...you said you understand the situation he's in, then are you in a similar situation, is that why your whole body is c-covered" Martha spoke.
From Xavier's outfit, only his eyes could be seen but the others didn't question it because he had been like that since they met him.
"I'm not like Ray so don't misunderstand, and I'm not a mage and I knew he was a mage all along I just didn't say anything, but I didn't know he was a demon" Xavier replied.
"The moment you saw Ray you knew what he was, that means you know about Demons right?" Gabriel asked.
"Of course I do, I'm leaving, when you guys are done with your planning and you need me, I'll be in my room, just knock," Xavier said as he opened the door and left.
"What was that?" Jack asked.
"How did he know what Ray was and how is he able to track Ray, he also knew Ray was a mage, and none of us told him," Gabriel said.
"Xavier is hiding something, and besides he has no reason to help us, other first-year students would either ignore us or report to the knights, not join us," Leia said.
"But are we really going to find Ray, what if he doesn't recognize us again, wouldn't it be a waste of our time, and once the senior knights find out, our time in the academy would be over and they would risk their lives to find us," Lily said.
"You are right, but are you giving up on Ray, you are the one that wants him back the most" Arya said to Lily.
"I'm not giving up on him, I just don't want to cause problems, and Xavier is a problem, we don't really know what he's after, and we don't know if he's working with the knights," Lily said.
"You are right, we don't know if he was sent by the senior knights or Selena to sit on us and see if we are really going after Ray, if he's with them we would be caught before we leave the school grounds," Gabriel said.
"That is if we decide to go at all, we all saw Ray, he's no more the Ray we knew, and he's insanely powerful, stronger than the head of the mage academy, I'm sure he can take care of himself" Crystal spoke.
"He can, but what if he's going to Xethen empire to kill everyone there for attacking Avalon, he might have lost his memory but I don't think he'll forget about Draco and his men," Leia said.
