Arc 1 Chapter 1.9 ( Sealed School of Demons )

The moment Zone woke up , everything came back to normal . As if the incident last night never happened . However , Zone was clueless that Jiro was actually aware of the incident .

The time Zone spent in this place made his acting and control over his facial expressions turned better and better . He could still act casual to Jiro despite what happened . While Jiro on the other hand observed Zone with amusement . Although he does not mind having physical contact , specially with a cute guy like Zone . His heart didn't beat and only felt little interest towards him .

He felt creepy though , as it was his first time experience to have a peculiar admirer like Zone . One would think that Zone was a wolf in a sheep's clothing but Jiro was actually the one who knows everything about Zone's deeds to him .

Zone exited the dormroom and went to the Training Hall as usual .

" I would like to book the private room for Shooting . "

The reception lady widened her eyes when she heard him . Guns were prohibited in the school since it was too overkill to hand over such weapon to the students . But students were allowed to practice shooting . No one ever rented a room for shooting for a long time , the reception lady immediately sobered up and smiled before handing over a card and a key .

The points were automatically transfered to the Reception Lady's Admin Wristwatch .

Zone received the things and leisurely strolled to the private room . The metallic door soon closed as Zone eyed the wide area of the private room . He had spent quite a lot of points for this and Zone felt satisfied when he saw the room .

A few hours later , consecutive loud bangs resonated as a man with a focused look fired bullets one after another .

" No ... It should be like this? Oh it feels better "

If Zone was binded with a system which is capable of monitoring Zone's body.

Countless notification would have rang by now .

Taking a short break , Zone twisted the bottle lid and drink in quick speed .

" Hah " He exhaled in exhaustion and went to another weapon .

Staring at the bow and arrow on the weapon rack . He picked it up and lifted up trying to imitate one of the movements he learned from his dreams . Archery is easy to learn but not easy to master , so he has to increase his proficiency when firing an arrow .

Assuming a proper stance , he slowly lifted the bow standing upright with a calm and relax grip on the bow . He then slowly placed the arrow on the bow before drawing ... Aimed and released .

The sound of the arrow speedily traveling from him to the target quietly resonated yet sounded sharp.

" Tsk "

Zone was disappointed when the arrow didn't hit the center ring and instead hit the 5th ring .

" So disappointing ... "

He placed another arrow on the bow again and started practicing non-stop .

Zone kept practicing and practicing until he mastered shooting while moving . Gradually , he started using arrows and bows to hunt every night and collect points to rent a better training room with better equipments and technologies .

Zone would also occasionally eat Jiro's tofu every night and escape by hunting . This continued until he saw Jiro pinning a cute girl on the wall with a rather domineering look as if he was a typical bully male lead in a campus novel .

Zone was so jealous at that time that he nearly killed the girl . Of course , Zone would never show Jiro his true feelings and only gives a bright casual smile on Jiro everyday as if what he caught didn't bother him . He knows Jiro was never interested in homos like Zone . He was indeed asexual but only Zone knew that Jiro liked teasing, and pampering some girls for a short term wasn't a big deal .

He's like a typical playboy who quickly changes girlfriend as changing clothes . But that still didn't hinder Zone from getting jealous secretly , that's when he realized that his feelings for Jiro had grown deep that it etched unto his bone marrows .

Zone now believed on the saying ,the more you couldn't get what you like , the more you yearn for them .

Also as years passed by , Zone's reputation gradually spread throughout the sealed school . Ever since he started training like a madman , he rarely get defeated as his killing intent became more and more terrifying . Batches of batches of students were sent to the campus , yet Zone's kill count was already astonishing .

He didn't even have the time to consentrate on his love life . Years passed as Zone turned 21 .

His previous cute features disappeared and turned mature yet still retained the look of a calculative scheming man . He looked incredibly good , bewitching yet dangerous .

Now , Zone is currently sitting on the sofa while drinking a can of beer . In front of him was still the handsome heart thumping Jiro who made Zone fall inlove to the point of madness . However , Zone remained coward with an unrequited love .

Jiro was aware of Zone's feelings at first and didn't even reveal to him that he knows everything . But Jiro doesn't know why , Zone had suddenly changed someday and stopped stalking him like a love crazed man .

Jiro was depressed at first and then recovered quickly thinking that Zone's infatuation towards him had faded . He also didn't dwell on that matter too much though as he saw that Zone was busy on his training like a madman to the point that it even made Jiro scared because he realized that Zone was gradually surpassing him. 

No , Zone still loved him . But he learned to suppress and hide it .

Whenever a woman walked near to him , he would pull Jiro away without informing Jiro . Everytime Jiro lands his eyes on another , he would block it with an indifferent expression and smile creepily . Jiro even feared Zone because of that smile .

" When have you been this past few days? " Jiro picked up his dagger and wiped it with a white towel . He looked at the bewitching man who is currently drinking beer with a nonchalant expression .

That bewitching man opened his mouth lazily to respond . " I took care of Little Sean because of Sis Nana and Kang-Dae's absence . "

Little Sean was Reina and Kang-Dae's child . He was cute and small , that child called Zone Uncle and despite with a mentally disturbed mind . The two still got along pretty well .

" You liked children? " Jiro asked back .

Zone hummed and lifted the corner of his lips when he thought of that little mischievous kid . The reason why the two got along was because of their similar brain cell .

During the time he spend on living here , his personality had gradually changed . He now had a twisted mind and even liked playing people's feelings , manipulating them to his entertainment .

" Only Little Sean though "

Zone opened a potato chip and looked at the handsome man busying himself on doing his maintenance cleaning .

" By the way , how was your relationship with the beauty ?"

Jiro paused and looked up , he stared at that casual gaze like a normal friend wanting to gossip . Jiro couldn't even perceive a shred of love or like from that man's eyes . His expression was so well hidden that even Jiro couldn't read him anymore . His control over his expression was so top notch to the point of terrifying .

No wonder , Psychos were feared by many .

" Good "

Jiro was actually lying , he was only flirting with countless woman to see the man's reaction . But Jiro realized that Zone indeed no longer liked him . By now , he was only spending his time in a relationship out of boredom .

Zone then lifted his brows in interest . " How do you two interact with each other? Do you ... Kiss? "

" Kiss? "

Jiro tilted his head and shook . " No ... We only held hands . "

" That's rather platonic . " Zone frowned and looked at Jiro with ridicule .

Jiro felt humiliated and acted angry . " We only got together for two days , i also learned that she was still a virgin and doesn't dare to be too intimate with me . What do you want me to do? Force her? That's not good to the heart you know . "

Zone chuckled and patted Jiro's fluffy hair like an elder coaxing an angry child . " Sorry sorry ... I know that you'll eventually break up with her . "

Jiro shrug and nodded in agreement . He indeed breaks up with women easily . But Jiro was unaware that everytime he came back with a new girl , Zone would secretly threaten that girl to not touch Jiro . Those woman were frightened and didn't dare force to act intimate with Jiro anymore because of the stalking Zone . Second , they also know that they were only short termed so it was no big deal. 

Zone stared secretly at Jiro and thought of the lingering emotions within him to escape out of this sealed school . He slowly clench his fist and onward hardened his heart and gather courage to escape .

" Hey Jiro "

" Hmm .. "

" Do you want to escape out of here? "

Jiro's face turned serious and stared at Zone's eyes with a solemn look . " Who doesn't want to escape here? Of course i do . "

Zone smiled then stood up from his seat and bent down from Jiro's side to whisper .

Jiro's eyes widened " That's dangerous! We don't know where those black man would put us . "

Jiro looked down on the ground and bit his lips . " Even though the plan sounds easy , it is actually more dangerous than everything else . "

" But at least there's 1% chance we could escape out . "

Jiro looked up and slowly nodded . " Ok , but ... Won't you join Reina , Kang-Dae , Spade , Zoe , Hanz and Sean? "

" They have their own roles . Truthfully , Reina received a letter of recruitment from the Cloacked Men last week . "

" It may sounded scattered , but at least there's a chance that one of us could escape and report to the government . "
