CHAPTER 9

　　Palm's Point Of View

　　After the event earlier, I decided to bring Zenith home. It will not be good for everyone if her condition is still the same.

　　"I already told you... you need a long and firm patience when you're at the Academy, see what happened!" I don't know where I get the strength to preach to her but she seems to calm down again so I'm sure it won't be her reason to end me.

　　"Get me a lollipop…" she said lazily, aish!

　　"Huh ?! I'm not kidding here, Zenith," I stubbornly said.

　　"Lollipop…" She pointed the kitchen, I was surprised she looked and went to what she was pointing to.

　　What are they?!

　　"Zenith, where did you get all of these?! Why do you have so much? It's not healthy!" I'm referring to jars of candy and junk foods.

　　"Hand me a lollipop…" I heard her say, I didn't do anything and obeyed her, I gave it to her and she took it and then kicked it.

　　"What now? You almost killed your opponent before, it's a good thing you were stopped by the Warriors Ten" When I returned to the conversation, she shot me an indifferent look.

　　"Tch, are those the Warriors in your Rank 10? They didn't stop me, I just let them do what they want," she said softly, she seemed to have come to her senses.

　　"Don't under estimated them, haven't we already understood about what happened against you? One of you just has to give up so you don't have to kill…" I reminded her.

　　"Ah, is that so? All right .. I'm the one giving up." I was shocked.

　　"What ?! After you tried to take that person's life, you're the one who gives up ?!" I whispered to her.

　　"Actually, it's like the fight is over. I have no plans to continue that and I really don't want to win in the beginning, the one I fought against… he has potential so I have no intention of ending him and as you traded when I did? I'm the loser so I'm giving up. " she calmly explained, unbelievable! This child continues to impress me.

　　"Hayst, go ahead. You just came in tomorrow but you'll have class first while waiting for the results of the match… That's good too, congrats! You haven't been killed for a few days!" she looked stunned at the last thing I said and smiled slightly.

　　"Tss, it's just work but I can still kill if I want to." I was shaken.

　　And nodded. "I understand.."

　　"Aren't you leaving yet? You've already delivered me so you can come back don," I was a little surprised at what she said, that's when she drove me away again.

　　I could do nothing but stand up. "Psh. Oh yeah, all right... I'll spear. Take care of yourself," I said goodbye but I haven't heard anything from her yet.

　　That one... I really like sweets but it's like an ice that conceived in extreme cold. Tch! She's really different at any time...

　　Vior's Point Of View

　　When I made sure that Kindred's condition was okay again, I decided to go home because our training and exam were over.

　　Until now, the match between the two is still a brand for everyone because this is the first time this has happened in the history of the Academy…

　　Suddenly what Zenith said when I electrified her earlier came to my mind,

　　"...but not because I can endure it no longer hurts."

　　How is she? She seems to have lost herself earlier so she almost killed her opponent, let's add she comes from the Aspen Family. Murder is a famous assassin and field so Zenith was not far from being influenced before, she was just like her grandfather…

　　Exactly, I can pass the house where she is staying here in town because I live close to her, if I visit, will I be sorry? Aish! I'm stupid to think that she will talk to me after what happened, she can't forgive me maybe at these times she thinks that we are an opponent who is a big obstacle.

　　F*ck! What the hell I'm thinking these thing?

　　"Oh, Vior?" I was stunned when she called me, I knew who it was... Achery.

　　"Achery .. Uhm, hi," I whispered

　　She approached. "Are you going home?"

　　"Ah, yes .. Are you?"

　　“Hmm, going home too,” she said, in City W she lives.

　　"Is that so? Let's go together then..." she didn't seem to expect me to say that.

　　"Thank you. Actually, I was waiting for Velocity… because he was with me," she said.

　　I also remember, "Yeah by the way, all right. You two be careful."

　　"You too, we're both fast, not really slow and just a long time when it comes to waiting like this…" I laughed at her response.

　　"Is it Velocity yet? Pfft! Alright, I gotta go. Bye." And then I got in the car and turned it on.

　　They look good together…

　　When I got home, a message arrived at the door. I picked it up and opened it, a letter and money from Zenith's grandfather.

　　I opened the letter and read.

　　Vior ..

　　You're the only one I can trust inside the Academy. Maybe you know that my grand daughter Zenith is there, she can handle herself but please be careful because my grand daughter has been through too much that's why she's been too cold to everyone. Postpone the one I'm asking you to do, my priority is the safety of our top assassin. She can't be hurt or die, but if that happens… I'll make sure none of you survive. Zenith is our treasure and if anything happens to her, I will give the priority to your entire Academy.

　　–Zilver Aspen.

　　Tsk! Even if he doesn't order me to do that, I will still do it. I also know that her grand daughter is too hasty like him so I will secretly watch over her.

　　I immediately remembered Dad, he was like this when he came to me before but he changed. He made me his subject on their experiment so the result was I had the power that can produce electricity. He's not sorry for what he have done that's why I was the one who stop their Laboratory and I decided to kill him. That's the only good thing so that they don't have to fall prey to his fellow scientists.
