Vior's Point Of View
Within ten minutes and we had reached the Warrior's Academy building, we found the students in a commotion in the front.
"Velocity, now tell me what I should know. Why is this happening?" I turned to him, he lowered Zenith first.
“It’s a long story but for now we have to avoid others first because it’s dangerous and the only thing they want is Zenith,” he replied.
I frowned then looked at the unconscious Zenith. "Why? What do they need from her?"
Velocity headed to face Zenith. "I'm sorry to say but you're the one they're accusing of doing this."
"What?!" my voice was so loud that all the other warriors turned to us.
"First! Just lower your voice! Zenith will be damned for what you're doing," Velocity said but it was too late.
"She agrees oh! Zenith!" they shouted and were about to kick it but I blocked them. "What do you think you're going to do?" I asked with emphasis.
"Uno! She! She killed the warrior who was in Class A! You step aside and she has to pay for what she did!" they muttered as they pointed at Zenith who was behind Velocity and me.
"Stop this nonsense. You don't know what really happened yet so it's bad to accuse, do you have proof that she did it?" I insisted on them.
"We all know that she's the only one who can do that thing, Uno! She's the one we're going to die for, right?! What else can you expect there eh it's inevitable to kill! You'll pay for it, Zenith!"
I stiffened my body to block them well. Zenith is still weak because of what happened in the Forbidden City and then this is how she will end up? Fuck.
"Step aside, Uno! You shouldn't be defending that killer man! That's why, be kind a little because you have a plan to kill one of us!"
"Who are you going to follow ?!"
"You're a demon, Zenith! Someone like you doesn't fit—"
"Shut up! Shut up everyone if you don't want me to hurt you one by one!" I shouted loudly to stop them.
I looked at Zenith who just looked coldly at the others. She doesn't do anything.
"For pete's sake! What do you know?! You can talk badly! You're judging her just because of her background?! Don't you know that earlier she had only save a lot of people from foreigners?! You don't isn't it? Because you don't have any care about her. I know! If you have no intention of shutting those sharp mouths and tongues, you will give me a reason to cut them off! Zenith is a kind person, even kinder than you think because she is not like that judgmental person! " I scolded them, if only in return for helping others, he would definitely be sad.
"Uno …" they said softly.
"But because, if she didn't do that then who l?! It just happened now, Uno! Since that Zenith came here to the Academy, everything has been in turmoil!" I looked badly at the man who said that, another mumbling of it I would not hesitate to electrify it too much to be conscious.
"Fine! When you prove it was Zenith who killed. I will resign myself from my position and take responsibility. Is it okay?" They were shocked by what I said, it was nothing! They are too much.
"Why are you always protecting that woman?! She's not worth it, Uno! If you only wanted Widow, I would have—" he didn't finish speaking when I took out the electricity in my hand.
"Repeat that, I'll make sure you eat everything you said. You have no right to lead how I feel. So what if I like here so with Widow? Can you do anything? Worth it? She's so much more than that. Now, will you put yourselves aside voluntarily or will you put it aside with a bruise?" I seriously promise, look sharp at them.
After a while they stepped aside and gave us access to the Academy.
"Hey, idiot. You don't have to do that. I can do it myself," I heard Zenith say behind me.
"I know but I want to silence them. Besides, everything I said is true. I'm sincere about it," I calmly replied, we fell silent.
"Am I bothering the both of you?" breaking Velocity.
"No, your not."
"Not really …"
As we spoke, we were stunned again because of that awkward moment.
It also disappeared immediately when we passed a lot of students and made Zenith look bad. You think they want to lose it or even dead.
Where is Ms. Palm?
My ears also could not avoid the whispers I heard from them.
"It's really the strength of her courage to show up here …"
"Tsk. Two faced woman, we're dangerous."
"Venom is right, she's really bad."
"Hello? She's an assassin, isn't she? And she's still the top of the Aspen family so it's unlikely she'll actually kill …"
"She kills people for years so it's inevitable that her hand will itch to kill."
I just ignored them so that the trouble wouldn't escalate. We need to see the others and the officials, especially the Queen. They also need to know what happened in the Forbidden City to give them a clue to the coming war and to make it clear to everyone that Zenith had nothing to do with the murder that took place, that's too impossible because we're both together. And for sure, those foreigners have a plan to disrupt the Academy or if not, an opponent has entered inside and just pretends to be one of us like what Zenith told me earlier.
Maybe that's it. I stopped then turned to Zenith, I saw her eyes were cold and sad. She's hurt.
One of the most painful tools for hurting a person is the words that come out of its mouth. They didn't know what's the impact will affect the victim's mind.
She look at me. "Why?" she asked.
Somehow she had to forget what had happened. I need to tell it so she knows I'm always here and I wouldn't leave her side.
I hold her hands then said, "I like you …"
