" Who do you think you are, Isiah Duncan? The fact that you are still here is suspicious to me, I don't know whose idea it was but whoever helped the mass genocider's brother to attend this school is a psychopath, no doubt !", Mister Lautner said with a scary look on his face while keeping his voice calm to the point where it was sharp as a knife.

Isiah realized that his teacher was angry, he just wanted an answer to his question because he genuinely cared to know, yet his teacher was offended by that .

Samuel intervened after what his teacher said:" Finally! someone in this institution is being honest with his thoughts ".

Isiah looked at his teacher with a straight face, trying not to lose his focus for once, then said:" Me being here is just a way to contain me, you banned me from learning anything useful, and all I am doing here is learning about theoretical stuff that doesn't even matter" .

"You should be executed with your family, you messed up with our world and now we are paying for your actions' ', Samuel said.

" Huh! interesting mate, do you think that the high-ranked mages didn't think about such a thing? Nothing would have stopped them if they had the power to do so !"Isiah said as calmly as possible.

This thought never crossed his mind until this moment, he was very confused by his answer, somehow this unlocked a lot of questions in his mind, they would have killed them, and being human and moral towards them was not even going to be considered as the right answer.

Isiah smiled sarcastically trying to prove them, but his teacher said:" try to stay silent in my class like you always did, you should pass this place unnoticed "

Samuel tried to speak but Lautner stopped him, and instead, he collected his books and left the class.

When their teacher left, his classmates gathered around his table, Garen said while laughing: " Were you threatening us with your words back then, do you think that you could harm us? Even better, do you think that you have the power to survive these people's wrath !"

Samuel was still sitting in his place but he said:" That's the problem with giving murderers a free pass to live, if I were in charge I would have eradicated his bloodline to avoid further troubles in the future ".

"After only five days, people will die, and a few will survive but they will only think of you as the murderer's brother ", Sika said with a serious look on her face.

Isiah knew that this was how people thought about him and his family, yet whenever he heard such a thing he always got hurt by that.

The only difference now is that he can hide it perfectly.

" It has been fifteen years, people should have learned their lesson and mastered the survival of that night ".

" You bastard !", One of his classmates named Richard said while yelling at him.

"Fire", he continued while focusing on Isiah's botany book that was put in front of him.

The book started to burn immediately and that caused panic in Isiah because he didn't think that Richard would go too far that way … freeweb(n)ovel.co(m)

In seconds there was nothing to save in his book, his classmates returned to their places after that, and he kept looking at it, feeling terrified of what happened.

Now, he could identify what happened, his teacher was very smart with his odd reaction, he didn't cause a scene as any normal person would, but he played with his student's emotions to manipulate them.

Mister Lautner wanted to bully him but he didn't have to do it himself, he wanted other people to do it, basically, it was the same technique Samuel did to him all these years, but now with an elder backup, they are going to be wild.

He collected the ashes from his table and threw them outside while Richard kept looking at him in rage.

A few were still standing next to him waiting for any move from him to punish him for it, his dad's words were still ringing in his ears keeping him sealed from doing anything.

When he got out of the institution later he knew exactly that they would mess with him, it happened a lot before but never with their magic powers.

Isiah tried to walk faster when Richard stopped him followed by all of his classmates. Richard was the son of the neighbor who helped his mom in labor, basically, his mom was the only one that kept a relationship with his family after what Lucas did.

Richard was much taller than him, physically well built and his magic powers were average but still better than his nonexistent one.

He leaned towards him and put his arm around his shoulder to stop him from walking. Isiah resisted him but he forced him to stop, then said:" We need to talk !"

Sika interrupted them:" Aren't we going to be in trouble for this? "

Isiah smiled at her and then said : " You can't think outside of the pack, don't you Sika? "

Samuel stood in front of him then said: " Isiah, we should have done this earlier, you and your family destroyed our peaceful world "

"I am with them, you have corrupted our world ", Sika added.

Isiah laughed then said :" Of course, you are going to stand by their side, stupid Sika, you and everyone here, let me just state some facts to your simple mind, this one standing here ", he pointed to Samuel then continued " This one is the mastermind in the group", then he pointed his index to Richerd who was next to him " And this one is the muscle ….and you ..all of you are the pack, brainless, powerless subjects who follow their master and his dog, you don't worth a thing if I may say …killing or even fighting with you is a waste of my time "

Referring to Richard as a dog, and to them, as brainless powerless followers were infuriating to them and that's why he got kicked by Richard first, he managed to cause him some harm when they fought physically but when Richard felt like they were even, he just pointed at him and said "Constraint !"

Isiah fell immediately to the ground, his legs were tied with a magic blue rope, he tried to untie it but he couldn't because Richard didn't give him time to do so, he even pushed some of his classmates to kick him while being tied, they were total of eight, and they were all kicking his body.

After a while his senses started to be numbed, he had been there, and even knife cuts were nothing in his final moments.

" He passed out!", someone said, he couldn't identify who said that.

" We are going to be in trouble "

" We should go"

" Is he going to die!"

" What's going to happen!" f(r)eeweb(n)ovel

" Just leave him here, no one would care anyway"

" Just…let's go "

In those moments he didn't recognize any of those voices, but he knew that they were going to leave him there.

He was gasping for air, the place was too quiet when they left after that, he tried to move but he couldn't and that is why he stayed there motionless for a while.

Someone was licking his face, that's what woke him up hours later from fainting there, he opened his eyes slowly when he smelled the sweet scent of food .

" You are awake" , A girl said with happiness shown in her voice.

" Where am I ?"

The licking started again, so he turned his face around to see a dog next to him.

" Is he bothering you? it is just his way of welcoming strangers"

Isiah closed his eyes again and then said with a tired voice:'' Isn't he supposed to be severe with strangers, what kind of dog that welcomes strangers, I wouldn't rely on a pathetic dog like this".

The girl said gently:"You are not in a position to judge my beloved dog"

Isiah opened his eyes again and this time he looked at the girl, she must be around his age with light blue eyes set appealingly in their sockets, long wavy black hair, rosy cheeks, and red lips.

Isiah immediately sat, forgetting about his recent injuries, but he couldn't stop himself from looking at her.

Something was captivating about her, maybe her constant smile or her welcoming eyes, he couldn't know.

" Hmmm, you must be so weak to be beaten to this point"
