Power stone guys??????

"I see," I replied, my mind racing to make sense of the information. She must have been actively involved in the student council at some point, and it was not surprising for her to have prepared a scarecrow, an artifact of the student council, during her school days.
But then, what could be the reason for the expulsion of the teacher's essence? Could it be that the scarecrow's function of pursuing its creator was somehow linked to the essence Expel?
An astonishing coincidence crossed my mind. It was hard to believe that Enn had designed it, but that girl must have known everything and chosen not to share it with us.
"Why aren't you following me? Didn't you have business with Teacher Cerys?" Kyelli's voice brought me back to the present.
I could sense her suspicion. As I followed the guidance of the Student Council President, I was drawing closer to Marilyn's expelled essence.
"Did you manage to get in touch with her later?" I asked, trying to divert the conversation.
"It suddenly connected a short while ago," Kyelli replied, showing me her phone.
"But regardless of what I said, there was no response. That's why I'm on my way to see her. I'm concerned that something might have happened to her."
I remained silent, contemplating the situation and the potential danger that Ms. Cerys might be facing.
"What do you think? Is my speculation too far-fetched?" Kyelli asked, her eyes fixed on me.
"I would... If my family didn't respond and remained silent, I'd be worried and go searching for them," I replied honestly.
"Indeed. It would be a disaster if they were attacked by a malicious villain," Kyelli remarked, her suspicion of me becoming more evident.
Well, it was only natural. Sylvie and Kelly might not know the full extent of my situation, but the Student Council President had no reason to trust me. From her perspective, I was nothing more than a criminal on probation.
In a sudden motion, the student council president turned around, her gaze fixed on me as she addressed Lucas. "Lucas, why did you come to the research building? Answer me," she demanded, her voice filled with urgency.
Lucas found himself facing a crisis of a lifetime. He hesitated for a moment, realizing that explaining the situation would be difficult until the student council president opened the door. "Until the student council president opens that door, it's difficult for me to explain," he replied, his voice tinged with frustration.
Kyelli's suspicion lingered as she contemplated the potential risks. "What if opening the door is a trap? What if it's the activation condition for your ability?" she questioned, her eyes narrowing.
Unfazed by her doubts, Lucas offered a solution. "If you're suspicious, I'll open it," he suggested, willing to take the risk to prove his innocence.
"No," Kyelli firmly responded, making the decision herself. With a determined expression, she turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. Her doubts about Lucas seemed to have diminished, perhaps due to his status as a failed D-class student.
Or maybe she believed that his act of opening the door was part of a planned scheme. It was impossible to know for certain.
As the door swung open, a sight greeted them that left both Lucas and Kyelli startled. It was the expelled personality of Cerys, shimmering like a jewel in a pretty pink jelly.
The student council president's body was suddenly enveloped in a bright white light, causing Lucas to act swiftly.
"Wait! Just wait! Mr. President!" Lucas pleaded, stepping between the jelly and the president, his voice filled with urgency.
"Move aside. Do you want to die as well?" Kyelli retorted, her tone laced with a mix of concern and frustration.
"This is Miss Cerys Marilyn!" Lucas exclaimed, hoping to make her understand the gravity of the situation.
"What...?" Kyelli's voice trailed off as she processed the information.
Lucas had narrowly prevented a disastrous outcome. If he hadn't intervened, the expelled personality jelly might have been destroyed, and Cerys would never be able to return to her original state. He had thrown himself in harm's way because he knew the consequences.
"On what grounds do you say that? The teacher should be over there..." Kyelli's voice wavered, her doubt still lingering.
Lucas gently cradled the trembling jelly in his arms, his heart filled with remorse for the suffering the teacher had endured due to the devastating expelled personality. He was determined to find a way to rectify the situation and bring her back.
"I'm sorry," Lucas whispered internally, his voice filled with regret.
Examining the jelly closely, he realized the extent of the damage. The personality erosion rate was at 8%, and the neglect had caused extreme cold, pain, sadness, and utter loneliness. It was a heartbreaking sight.
Focusing on the task at hand, Lucas knew he had to convince the student council president of the truth. "Teacher? Miss Cerys?" he called out, hoping for a response.
Cerys remained silent, her back against the support, her condition indicating that she had been neglected since lunchtime.
She had been left alone for nearly five hours, and the connection between her main body and the jelly had grown faint. It was as if her body had become nothing more than an empty shell.
Lucas couldn't help but be struck by her beauty. This was not the middle-aged teacher he had seen during class. Before him lay a raven-haired beauty in her early twenties, only a couple of years older than Sylvie and Kelly. Her exposed, strong thighs beneath her burgundy dress held an undeniable allure.
The student council president's voice broke the silence, reminding Lucas of the urgency of the situation. "You should be able to explain what happened, Lucas," she stated firmly, her tone leaving no room for ambiguity.
Lucas took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. He knew he had to choose his words carefully.
"First of all, the teacher seems to be cold. May I comfort her?" he requested, hoping to alleviate the immediate distress and gain some trust from the student council president.
