"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.
"Even though he can't, Ray knows not everyone in Xethen is responsible for the attack...the problem is we don't know what he's going there to do and I don't even know where Xethen empire is," Jack said.
"We also can't navigate our way there so we'll need a map," Gabriel said.
"Wait...are we really going?" Martha asked.
"Aren't you guys scared of infected beasts, normal beasts, bandits, and other dangerous stuff when traveling, we'll have to save time so we can't use normal roads, we'll have to use the forest, and even if we have to use the roads, we'll need horses and a carriage?" Crystal said.
"Then we should first find a map, then we'll have to steal a carriage, and none of us can ride a horse so what do we do?" Gabriel said.
"Gabriel, are you really serious about going?" Leia asked.
"Yes, I am, leaving Ray Isn't the best way to go about this, we all saw how powerful Ray is now, even if Draco comes back to Avalon, Ray alone would be enough to handle him and any other attacker" Gabriel spoke.
"You are right, if he regains his memories and returns to Avalon, Avalon would surely be protected," Jack said.
"His power was overwhelming, but what if he doesn't recognize us, it's all be a waste, first we'll be banned from the academy, that is if we make it back alive," Crystal said.
"I'm still a little afraid that we are leaving, I hope he recognizes us when we find him," Lily said.
"Don't worry he'll surely..."
>Bang!!<
Before Ivan could finish his sentence, a long bang alerted all the students, it was the usual sound that wakes them up every morning but after witnessing an attack, they were shocked by the sound.
"Outside..." a loud voice shouted and immediately all the students came out of their various rooms.
The students quickly lined up close to the wall facing themselves, the knight took a deep breath before speaking.
"The king of Avalon is here, and he's coming to the academy to check on the students, be on your best behavior and get ready to receive His Majesty" the knight spoke.
"Huh!! The king"
"The king of Avalon, what is he doing here"
"Why is the king coming here"
The students began to murmur amongst themselves even when the knight was still there, most of them or possibly all of them had never seen the king before so they were surprised by his sudden visit.
"I clearly told you guys to be on your best behavior" the knight shouted and all the students kept quiet immediately.
"Get ready to welcome the king," the knight said again before leaving.
"Why is the king coming here, I don't even know the king, we won't be able to recognize him," Ivan said.
"I've seen the king before, but it's been a long time" Sofia spoke.
"As expected, your family is rich and of Noble blood so you would know the king," Dan said.
"You would know the king once you see him, he would be adorned in jewels," Gabriel said.
"When are we planning to go after Ray, we can't go today because they'll be knights everywhere and the king is here so he's here with Royal Knights," Leia said.
"We won't be able to leave today or tomorrow, we won't be able to leave till the king leave," Lily said.
"He won't stay long, he's the king after all, he would definitely go back to Avalon" Arya spoke.
"I have a question, it hasn't been a day since the attack, how is the king here, was he in one of the city or villages around?" Jake said.
"You are right" Crystal added.
"He's the king of Avalon, they are mages that can teleport, I'm sure many of them are working for the king," Sofia said.
"You are right, we better get dressed," Jake said as he went towards his room, the rest of the group went towards their various rooms to get changed.
Leia and Sofia walked in and Ivan followed them in only to be pushed outside.
"Wait outside till we get changed," Leia said.
"Huh!! this is my room, babe" Ivan mumbled.
"I'm sorry," Sofia said as she locked the door, Ivan could swear he heard giggling sounds as soon as the door was closed.
Ivan turned around and looked and it seems like he wasn't the only one, most of the boys staying with girls were all outside of their room waiting including Gabriel, Dan, and Jack who were roommates with Annie.
All of them finally had a change of clothes and gathered in Ray's room again, this time Leia checked to see if the door was properly locked.
"We won't be able to leave till the king leaves, and I don't know if we should all be going," Gabriel said.
"What do you mean?" Leia asked.
"We might not make it far if we all go, except Xavier none of the students noticed Ray is gone, if we all leave the knights would chase us immediately because this room would be emptied," Gabriel said.
"So only a few of us should go?" Lily asked.
"Yes," Gabriel said.
"If that's the case, you and Leia can't leave then, the two of you are the most popular first-year student because of your skill and rank, the students would surely notice if one of you goes missing" Jack spoke.
"He's right, and since the knights know of our relationship, we'll be questioned and we'll have no choice but to tell them your whereabouts, that goes for everyone in this room," Crystal said.
"That's another reason we should all go together, no one would know about our whereabouts," Ivan said.
"I'll know" Xavier spoke standing close to the door.
