Chapter 4: Chapter 4

When the Prof got the two students he hurriedly took them to the Clinic.

He looked at me before finally leaving.

I saw Harper approaching so I started walking.

"Did you see 'Grim'?" I nodded then removed his grip on my hand.

And then we made our way to the cafeteria.

We don’t have classes this afternoon so we’re free to do what we want to do.

But we couldn’t get out of school.

When I entered the cafeteria it was almost full.

I immediately looked for a possible placement.

Hailey waved at me.

"Kath!" I greeted them and then walked towards them.

"How was your first day?" Hamira asked me.

"It's OK. I'll order for me first. "I replied and then put my bag down on a chair.

They nodded so I went to the counter.

The counters of the three groups are different.

There is a counter for our commoners or scholars, there is also for the Lower Elites and there is also for the Higher Elites.

I just ordered a tuna sandwich and soda.

Then return to the chair.

"Now Dean will tell me when Leveling is needed. I'm so nervous." said Hailey.

"Do you know what Leveling Kath is?" I nodded.

"To increase your level you have to get a high grade in leveling. But the Academy's leveling trip is different, but what is usually done here is that each student shows elegance." my answer.

I was even shaken when I heard in my mind Yamira say of

‘He looks dead when he speaks, nor does he have any emotions’.

I saw that they were finishing their meal, while I had already finished because I only ordered a tuna sandwich.

I'm not into heavy meals, depending on my mood.

"Are you full now, Kath?" I nodded.

"Attention to all MEA students, please proceed to the Arena right now. Attention to all MEA students, please proceed to the Arena right now."

When we arrived at the arena we immediately looked for a seat.

I even saw Yasmine, so I smiled at her.

I even saw her cousin Pia who ignored me.

I just kept shaking.

We sat down.

I saw them all stopped when the royalties came in.

Three men, one gay and two women.

I stared at the man in the middle.

The prince of Fantasia.

Prince Denver Tristan Fantasy.

The supposedly strongest prince in the bloodline of the Fantasia family.

He can control Dark Elements, Fire, Earth and Wind.

Add to that he owns a Diamond Dragon that only follows him.

To my knowledge she named the Dragon the Reina, which means Queen.

what I have heard is that whoever you are, a woman who will tame the dragon will be the next queen and will marry the prince.

We all stood up and then bowed.

"Yay! Royalties have bowed down to you-one Kathylina Amara Ferrtollo. Am I going to cry?"

I was just shocked when I saw 'Grim'.

Why does it always follow me.

"Shut up, it's like you can cry." I answered it so it made me laugh.

"Whatever. The handsome prince in the middle isn't it? You type?" I scolded him.

if you ask where he is he is in the front seat I am sitting.

That's a vacancy.

"No, so be quiet there." I saw it nod.

"Aye Aye Captain." I looked to the front when Dean came on stage.

Dean Forester.

to my knowledge he is the mentor of the Fantasia family.

"Good Afternoon Everyone." Others answered.

"I would like to announce that the upcoming leveling will happen on the last week of this month so better be ready." announced by the Dean.

"The leveling would be different this time.it would be one on one, and we will not decide who will fight you. That’s random so we can’t yet say who will compete. You can fight Commoners or Scholars, you can also fight Lower Elites or Higher Elites. that depends on whether the Gods and Goddesses side with you. So those who are beginners should strive so that you will not be miserable in the upcoming leveling. That's all, thank you very much. "Dean said so the students whispered.

many rejoiced because it seemed as if the students would really have a one-on-one battle while others were worried, especially the students who did not have much power.

what could have entered the mind of the Council and allowed this method of leveling in the MEA even though they knew it was dangerous ?

On the other hand royalties do not prevent the look.

"What can there be?" said Fiona to the companion.

Others shrugged.

"Do you know anything here in Denver?" Wade asked, being asked by one.

"Why didn't they tell us?" Rain asked again.

“I don’t know, maybe they don’t trip says Jake aka Jamaica.

"Don't even think about it, I think it's better if we go. The student's look here is irritating. It's like we've only just seen each other." Keana said then clung to Denver's arm which he immediately removed.

"Don't be such a leech Keana." Denver says Keana just stared and walked ahead.

The others looked on.

Royalties, on the other hand, looked at Denver, which had been looked at before.

they looked in the direction Denver was looking and saw a woman turning her back while talking to a man.

They looked at Denver again with a frown.

What could there be in that woman and Denver looking at it?

"What's your problem Harper?" I told him when he stopped me from leaving.

"Let's talk please." I looked him in the eyes and then laughed.

"So what do you call what we're doing today? Singing?" I whispered loudly to him.

I saw it shake.

"Please, just this one Kathy. Just this one." he said so I was forced to nod.

I saw Pia and Yasmine look at us.

Yasmine smiled at me while Pia stared at me.

That's why I'm out of breath.

I heard the laughter of 'Grim'.

I think that one is going crazy again.

"Poor baby girl. The old friend doesn't pay attention. She's crying." he said so I gave him a look that he just laughed at.

I started walking to the garden.

I sat on a bench and Harper sat next to me.

"I know how many times you've heard that Kathy, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for what I did." He says.

"Don't make me feel sorry Harper and Pia be sorry." my answer.

"I know, I've already apologized to him. But I also want to apologize to you over and over again." I looked at him before speaking.

"But no matter how sorry you are nothing will change Harper. The damage has been done." I answered and I saw him swallowed.

"I know, it's my fault why you split up with Pia and Yasmine.It's also my fault why Tita Gia is angry with you. But it's not my fault that I fell for you Kathy. "Napailing naman ako.

"It's not your fault but that's wrong Harper..you and Pia have a relationship, so how do you think she will react that the reason you break up with her is because of her friend? Do you think he will jump for joy? No, Harper. You should know that, you should have avoided me when you could have stopped. you should have avoided me! "I told him as he just asked.

"How can I avoid the person I love Kathy? I'm too late to realize that I already fell for you.and at first I thought that's why I'm worried and possessive of you because I consider you a younger brother. Until such time I realized that I can't see you with another man. "I turned to him.

"Stop me Harper, you probably know how I feel for you, I'm not being harsh here, I just want to be straightforward, I don't want to give you false hope, I'm sorry Harper , but you're just a friend. " I told him then he smiled.

I saw him as if he was sad and hurt.

But there was nothing I could do,

I'm not going to take risk.

Never.

"I'll be the first, see you around." I said then he finally left.

I even stopped when I saw Pia and Yasmine.

Looks like he's listening to what we're talking about .
