Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 105: Third Year Story Part 1

"( Her eyes..., its... )" I was so shocked to see the girl's very eyes.

Remember, I know this girl but I wasn't that close to her, okay?

I only see her view times in the canteen, but it seems this is my first time officially meeting her in person, to even make contact with her, I mean hard contact, since our crash earlier, hence her things are now getting messed up in the floor.

I felt sorry about it at first, not my intention to even disarray her things, but at the same time, I felt grateful, because...

I suddenly see the most beautiful things in my life, from a girl.

"( Why I'm stuttering...? why my heart's beating fast? )"

"( I'm not having some romantic feelings, right? )"

"( My age is even not that sufficient for puberty... )" I said to myself while seeing the girl, seeing her good-looking white face and her glowing bright golden eyes, uncovered by her blonde-pink hair.

" Umm..., 1-A Class, Relia Ross...! " I called the girl's name I then immediately helped her pack her belongings that were scattered on the ground.

" Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..., I didn't mean to... " Relia says to me.

" No, it's alright, Relia, it's my fault... "

" By the way, here..., your glasses. " I showed Relia her glasses which shocks her as she touched her head after seeing them, probably didn't realize that her glasses had fallen off just now which made her cheeks go red.

As it happens, I wondered what made her face like that, is she feeling ill, right now?

Like seriously, despite me didn't know what was going on, my heart still aching as I see her glowing golden eyes plus her red cheeks looked so cute. In my eyes.

When she does that, she immediately takes her glasses again from my hand, putting them immediately on her thus canceling the beautifulness she showed me some minutes ago. Making it disappear immediately for her glasses is the thing that makes her unattractive, as it somehow hides what she has inside.

" Uuumm..., Relia...? " I asked her while Relia herself bowed her head and hold her glasses tight.

" Are you...- "

" Did you see it? " Relia asks me which made me silent for a while.

" See what...? "

" Did you see my eyes? " Relia asked again.

" My whole face...? "

" Well, Relia..., I... " I tried to formulate my reply, in order to make things go smoothly, I hope.

" I was..., ummm... "

" I didn't see it... "

" You saw it...! " Relia replied to me as she then tells that I should've not seen her face earlier.

As she keeps telling me that, I feel that something is wrong as if she had to hide her beautiful looks on purpose which made me keep wondering, despite her explaining it just that, sadly doesn't convince me enough about her very reason for there's nothing bad she should hide from me.

After a lot of explaining, Relia then tells me being annoying and decided to get lost from me, and before she go, I sense something different from her Mana.

" Huh...? " I sensed it from her, I sense her having an unorthodox Mana feel, unlike any people I've met before.

" Her Mana is...? " I tried to sensed it again, in order to confirm what I felt earlier, but it seems I can't.

"( It's gone, how...? )"

"( She must've already hidden it, holding the leak of her unusual Mana after she ran from you, Master Donovan. )" Tania speaks to me, as I see her partially coming out from the shadow below my body.

"( Tania...? )" I was surprised to see her even bravely appear herself in front of me in this public place.

I looked around to see if there's people around, but Tania quickly assures me that the whole people in the academy is currently focused on calming a battle between Aero and Goriath in the Canteen right now.

"( Those two are fighting again!? )" I asked Tania which she winks, confirming my question.

"( Hmph, right... )" I sighs at the moment.

"( So Tania, about Relia earlier? )"

"( What do you sense from her? is there something odd about her that you noticed? )" I asks my Black Shadow Elite regarding it, which Tania takes some time too to think about it.

"( Yes, there's something wrong with her, young master... )"

"( Something, very wrong... )" Tania tells me as she stares at me, probably knowing that Relia is a serious matter than expected.

"( Explain, Tania... )" I ordered her which she explains that the Mana she sense from Relia is not a human Mana, but somehow...

"( That girl's Mana feels like like a human primarily but can also change into a Mana of something else other than human at some condition. )"

"( Young master, about that girl, I've been watching her a lot as I monitored this academy as you ordered me too, with the others. )" Tania says, telling that the other Black Shadows I assigned to watch over this entire academy also noticed the thing wrong with Relia Ross.

"( Really...!? )" again, I was surprised that they noticed, for I never hear them tell or complain to me about any abnormalities while I'm having my classes which I thought that either they already clean it up for me or there's really nothing to worry about.

"( So why didn't you and the others tell me about it? about her? )" I asked Tania and the other Black Shadows residing in my Shadow Realm. Asking them why they keep their mouth shut regarding information so long from me.

"( Apologies, young master... )" said one of the Black Shadow Dark Elf Warriors inside the Shadow Realm as she tells me that the reason they didn't told me is because they were unsure to judge whether Relia must be dealt with or not due to the lack of proof of her being dangerous to my life.

"( We're sorry, young master. )"

"( It's alright, you're wise enough to think of that. )" I tell her about it, besides, if it were me, I wouldn't kill people for the slight thought of them being weird or something. Especially in such public place like this academy, there's no way I could kill someone here without having a good motive to do so and an assassination attempt in this place would be risky.

"( Hmm... then it seems we need more things to know. )"

"( Tania, can you locate where Relia is now...? )" I asked Tania which she had to search for the girl's location around this academy along with the others.

As they searched for her, they found nothing which made surprised and wonder if she left the academy.

"( Leaving the academy during recess...? )"

"( Especially when the teachings are not over yet...? )" I wondered which I then decided to participate with them to do things quicker as I entered the Shadow Realm through my own Shadow in order to join suit in their work.

"( This is getting weird..., I don't know why? )" I said this to myself.
