The Mysterious Hero

5. Spirits

When all the students were busy talking or filling their stomachs in the cafeteria, Ruka just walked towards the headmaster's room.

There were some disciples who greeted him with respect and a warm smile, but there were also some new disciples who were just staring in annoyance as if holding a grudge against him.

Maybe they are the ones who were in the law, or those who were also insulted indirectly.

But unfortunately Ruka did not care about that at all. Whether to be angry or happy with his decision, it was their decision, and Ruka would not care about it at all.

His steps came to a halt right in front of the door of a room that read 'The Principal's Room.' Ruka's hand moved to knock on the door several times, but there was no answer from within.

Realizing that the door was unlocked, Ruka opened it slowly. Sure enough, Mr. Amato Cromwell is not inside.

Ruka stepped towards a large sofa there and laid her body. His eyes were closed enjoying the gusts of wind that entered through the window slit.

Ruka's right hand grasped a crystal pendant from her necklace. The necklace was slightly luminous, making Ruka smile a little.

'You enjoyed this day enough...'

The soft voice sounded so soft, yet it could still be heard by Ruka, making the smile wider on her face.

"That's how." Answer Ruka later.

'Just tell me if you need help. I'll definitely help you. Don't force yourself.'

Ruka looked a little chuckled. Glad someone noticed it that way. "Well, I'll definitely ask you for help." Before long, the rays within the crystal were fading and disappearing.

"Are you happy that you managed to teach those nobles a lesson?" A voice shocked Ruka, making the previously closed eyelids re-open and showing her golden bead.

Ruka quickly sat herself down. At his sight was a man who walked towards his work desk, who then put some stuff there. "How's your observation?" Ask Mr. Amato, the man while sitting himself on his desk chair.

Amato Cromwell is the principal at Star Magic Academy and also the king of Sagya kingdom itself. His abilities can control mana nature and spirit magic. He has the ability to bring out the golden dragon-shaped spirit that is often used when fighting.

Moreover, Amato's ability in close combat and using weapons could no longer be underestimated. Even with his abilities, Amato became one of the S-level magicians in the Sagya Kingdom.

"As I've reported before, there are Devils infiltrating the academy. That spirit-type demon was quite troublesome. Moreover, their ability to possess others makes them even more difficult to detect." Ruka.

It is true, a Spirit that has possessed someone will be difficult to detect because it disguises its existence by using magic from its host.

In addition, with the attitude of the host who seemed unaware of himself in rasuki, making most people unaware. It takes high-level magic to be able to realize or find them.

Usually people who are already possessed by Spirit-type Devils will only react when the spirit begins to control it. Before that, like ordinary people, it did not show any reaction.

It was also what made spirit monsters able to break through the protective magic of the academy. It is likely that the person in his possession has magic that is strong enough, so it can cover his existence and make it easier for him to enter the academy.

"The plan is I'm gonna set them up, but it takes time to prepare."

"You said they were? There's more than one parasitic monster that entered the academy?" Ask Mr. Amato.

Ruka nodded. "It's probably more than one. But I still can't guess what the total amount is."

"In addition, there are some children who have high abilities, may be more prone to be the target of the spirit Devils is not it?" Ruka remembered. During the opening ceremony, he had felt the magic of some children who were quite strong, even surpassing children their age.

"Hali Cromwell, Hika Cromwell, Zen Cromwell, Leon Alvern, Yuka Alvern and Duri Alvern. Six sons from two well-known families. As the Prince, Hali, Hika and Zen also had great magic abilities. Even reached A and A+ levels."

"Then to Leon, Yuka and Duri, they were the sons of the noble Alvern who was also the son of a magic knight who participated in the battlefield first. Their abilities range from level B to A. Although no one has reached the level of S and SS, but they also need to be monitored. Kids like them may be strong, but in terms of experience it's still 0." Obviously Ruka.

Although the ability of the six young men is high, even to be dubbed as the 6 elemental princes in Sagya Kingdom, but their experience is still very little in fighting monsters and demons. It can backfire on them.

These are the ones who will actually be easy targets for spirit-type Devils to possess. With their powerful magic, those spirits would get even stronger protection as well.

"Then from that, you should also keep an eye on them. Don't let them in rasuki, or this academy and Sagya Kingdom be right in a great disaster." Mr. Amato knew, although maybe the power of the Devil was still not comparable to the son of his son and the noble son, but their experience was still very little. A wrong move would be fatal.

"Added, some of them have a level of curiosity that is above average. So then... It's better not to let them interfere or get involved in this matter." Mr. Amato massaged his temple. He clearly remembered the nature of some of his sons who were filled with curiosity, until they often acted recklessly.

Especially if the six of them are already united. It takes extra patience to overcome them.

Ruka chuckles. He knew clearly how the attitude of the six young men was. Although only heard from the story of Mr. Amato and have never met in person, but he can guess their attitude. It would be troublesome if you were involved. "I'll watch them. Just relax..."

Amato breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Now her eyes are staring out the window. Where the sunlight enters his room, coupled with the soothing breeze.

I don't know why he remembered the first time he met Ruka. At that time he was on the battlefield, when Ruka appeared from inside a portal and immediately finished off all the demons and monsters near him.

His golden eyes flashed furiously without fear of slashing down all the monsters on the battlefield. The various types of attacks he gave to kill all his opponents. Blood poured out where, wetting the ground to make it like a red lake in the middle of the battlefield.

At that time Amato could only stare in admiration, but also fear. Such a great ability has a young man who is only 15 years old.

As if having a grudge against those monsters, without pity Ruka killed them all without a remnant. Ruka's angry expression was so terrible, yet it also seemed to hold such a deep pain and sadness.

That's what still makes Amato curious until now. However, he did not dare to ask her directly to Ruka. You know, not all problems can be easily explained. Ruka must also have her own reasons for keeping her secret.

Until finally, the story of Ruka defeating almost all monsters on the battlefield became the secret of everyone who was there. Those who saw Ruka only referred to her as a Mysterious Hero who descended into the battlefield to help them fight the monsters.

"My Lord? Is there anything you're thinking?"

"A-ah, there's nothing." Amato closed her eyes, trying to get rid of that monstrous shadow. Now he looked back at the pretty face of Ruka who looked worried at him.

Ah... Maybe because Amato who arrived daydreamed like that. "If so, please help Ruka."

Although a little suspicious, Ruka shifted her mind. "All right, leave it to me, My Lord." Ruka said while slightly bowing in respect.

Besides of... There is also what makes Ruka curious about the six element controllers.

'Maybe they're involved.'

A voice suddenly appeared on Ruka's head. The young man only smiled faintly for a moment.

"Stop that..."
