"Ughh!" Ray groaned as he slightly opened his eyes. Squinting lightly, he covered his eyes as the light struck his eyes.
As his eyes adjusted to the light, Ray saw a vague figure of a girl looking at him continuously, "Aella!" He called out weakly.
"You are awake?" She smiled and then added, "Let me bring them all. Don't move," Saying that, Aella stood up and disappeared.
While she went away, Ray turned his head sideways and looked at the surroundings. Realizing that he was in some sort of medical room, Ray reckoned that they were in the infirmary.
"Well, it's better than any other place. Also, it could accommodate many people," he thought. Then, lifting up his right hand, he thought back to the last thing he remembered before passing out.
"What happened?" he thought, "Was it the power of time? Or something else?"
While he was immersed in his thoughts, the others came as they saw him observing his hand while muttering something. freew ebnovel.com
"Snap out of it," Sirius spoke, bringing Ray out of his reverie as Aliya stepped forward and touched his forehead.
As she did, a gentle feeling went through his forehead to his body as he felt the pain lessen.
Feeling much better, Ray sat straight and then looked at Sirius as he asked,
"How much time has it been?"
"You were down for a day," Sirius replied.
"Really?" Shocked by Sirius's reply, Ray asked again while Sirius only nodded to affirm his answer.
"What about the others? Where are they?" He asked.
"They are all here, waiting for you. We have something to discuss," Sirius answered gravely.
Seeing the man's expression, Ray knew that whatever it was, should be extremely important. Therefore, without wasting any time; he hopped to his feet.
"Ughh!" Little did Ray realize, right after he stood up. He saw the world spin as he fell to the ground.
"Ray!!" seeing that, Aella screamed in shock as she went by his side and supported him while Aliya used her spell, [Diagnosis] to check him.
"Don't worry, he fainted due to exhaustion," she replied and then placed her hand over his forehead. Then, particles of light gathered around her hand as they went into his forehead.
"He will gain consciousness within a few minutes," Saying that, she motioned for Aella to calm down and lay him on the stretcher.
Doing as asked, Aella laid him down and then turned to glare at Sirius, "Why the hell did you need to tell him that right now? You should have let him rest a bit more. Now, if he faints again or something bad happens to him, I will make sure to make your life hell," She said viciously.
"Indeed, a woman in love is the most dangerous," Sirius thought as he nodded and backed up. He didn't want to fight with this crazy girl right now.
Within the Head Nurse's office,
The whole office was empty and a huge table was laid in the middle. Around the table were twelve chairs and multiple people were seated on them. Of the twelve chairs, four were currently empty.
"Should we start?" a girl with high cheekbones and a long nose spoke.
"No, we wait for everyone to gather," Said another man. The man had light brown hair and looked pretty average.
"Why should we wait for everyone else?" Asked the long-nosed girl in annoyance.
No one paid heed to the girl as they all ignored her. Seeing this, the girl puffed her cheeks in annoyance and crossed her arms. She was going to make it hard for the missing ones once they joined the meeting.
While waiting, Sirius walked into the office and announced, "Don't worry, the meeting will start in a few minutes. He has woken up," As he spoke, Sirius went to a corner and sat on a chair.
With Sirius's appearance, everyone calmed down as the meeting would finally start and they would discuss their future plans. All this while, at one end of the table; a slightly plump woman sat expressionlessly.
She sat in her place and silently observed every single person present. While she did, no one dared to meet her gaze as whenever she looked at them, they simply lowered their heads.
As for why they did so? It was because the woman was not some ordinary woman but the head nurse and she was a celestial. Apparently, she had evolved to the celestial realm and right now, the waves of strength she gave off made every person shiver in fear.
"Creakkk!" The door opened as three people walked in. At the front was the second-in-line heir of the Jhones family. Behind her was Ray who walked with Aella's support.
As they walked, everyone had their eyes on them. After all, everyone was waiting for them and they were here now.
As Nia walked into the front, everyone thought that she would sit on the end opposite to the head nurse. However, walking forward; she sat right next to that chair while Aella sat besides her.
As for the chair opposite to the head nurse, Ray walked to it weakly and sat down.
"Thump!!" The long-nosed girl banged her fist on the table. Her anger was evident on her face as she glared at Ray as if he did something he shouldn't have. At least half of the students there had the same expression as they thought,
"How dare a nobody sits on the seat opposite to the head nurse?" freewebnovel.c om
"How dare you sit there?" The girl voiced out in anger.
"What do you mean?" Ray asked, confused over the girl's reaction.
"You imbecile," she called out in anger as she stood up. Glaring at Ray in anger she spoke, "How dare you sit in the main seat. Do you even have the right to lead us all? Are you from some royal family or some bigshot who has enough strength to lead us?"
Listening to her shouting at Ray, some shook their heads while others nodded. After all, this fool served their purpose and helped them out with the issue.
"Are you sure?" Listening to her, Ray looked right into her eyes and asked coldly. His eyes changed as deep swirls formed in them. The power space converged around him as the phantom of two dark slits formed behind him.
Standing up, he looked at the girl and asked, "Who are you to even ask that? Do you even know who I am or what I am?" As he asked, the slits behind him opened up, two supernovas revolved within them as immense pressure descended on the surrounding.
"Arghhh" Hit by such pressure, the girl groaned as she fell back on her seat. Blood seeped out of her nose as she felt her vision blur.
"Enough!" The head nurse called out, motioning Ray to stop as Ray had shown enough power.
Ray complied and sat down while all the oppressive pressure was gone. Smiling as if nothing happened, Ray looked at everyone as he waved his hand.
Seeing Ray wave to them, everyone felt their spines shiver in fear. They saw a devil in Ray's place as fear took over them.
Witnessing everyone's reaction, Nia shook her head as she knew that they deserved it. These people from royal families needed someone to keep them in check and let them know their place.
On the other hand,
Ray gulped lightly. He had just overexerted his already weak body to show everyone his strength, and that caused his already damaged organs to become weaker as blood flowed to his throat. Thankfully, he gulped it back to not show his weakness.
"Thanks, Sirius," he thanked the wolf telepathically as Sirius had told him the whole situation beforehand.
Looking at them, the head nurse nodded as she stood up and started the meeting.
"Let's start," she spoke, "The Academy is under attack and all of you more or less know what has happened. Therefore, I feel no need to explain it. Now, let us get to the main issue,"
Saying that, she put a badge on the ground. The badge had a small scythe with wings embedded upon it as the head nurse spoke again, "This is the dean's seal and he has asked me to hand this to Ray Xanders. As for what this seal means, Ray Xander has control over the various systems of the academy, and through the dean's order, he is to lead the Academy out of this precarious situation," Saying that, she pushed the seal as it slid to Ray.
Seeing the seal come towards him, Ray nodded and picked it up. As he did, information flowed to his brain and within seconds he understood what he had to do. Nodding to the head nurse, he stood up and spoke,
"I know what I have to do and will make sure to help everyone out of this disaster,"
As he spoke, everyone looked at him in shock as their brain failed to process what just happened.
