Bloody 22: Stage 3: Eye of Deception

Roen Astrid.

"Okie-dokie! But since there is no time, you will directly play the third stage of the game with some students who passed the second stage. Good luck, lovely students! I hope you'll catch the scary monster and escape the cage before it's too late!" As he talked, I immediately sensed a familiar tremendous aura. Katulad ito ng naramdaman ko bago mapunta sa laro ni Mr. Davine. That mysterious source was the one who brought us inside the old geezer's game.

I lifted my head without an ounce of hesitation. I can feel my eyes shining excitedly upon seeing a huge eye above us. It was the exact same eye inside of Mr. Davine's so-called cage.

I see. This old geezer's trait lies on these huge eyes to launch his large scale attack. I don't know how it exactly works but I got the gist of it now.

As if it sensed my gaze, the huge eye met with mine as it began to radiate a blinding light. I recalled that this had happened before as well. There is no doubt that it was the mysterious source of the tremendous aura I was looking for.

"Argh! This stupid light!"

"I-I'm getting dizzy again,"

"I'm gonna beat this hella game!"

"M-master, take care! I-if I managed to win, we'll see each other again, t-thank you fo---"

I heaved a sigh of relief as I felt my whole body being sucked by a violent energy. Ayokong pakinggan ang mga susunod pang sasabihin ni Cedrick. I don't need his gratitude. To be honest, I don't care if I get expelled from Dallas Academy. I naturally have several other methods to carry out my plan on destroying the royal family and it's not necessary for me to stay here and act like a student.

Ngunit nagbago ang isip ko nang mapagtanto ang mga plano ni Lucy. Upon remembering her aggrieved face, my lips lifted into a mischievous smile.

Since the unscrupulous empress wants to expel me so much, I must 'work hard' to do the opposite, and that is to stay in her beloved academy. I will never let that dog to succeed in her petty schemes.

I suddenly had the urge to laugh. This game is quite fun, isn't it? I also found a very interesting teacher to play with. I'm looking forward to the third stage of the game.

My mood was pretty good as I anticipated the next game. Even though I felt my mind getting light and dizzy, I was not irritated like before. I'm actually happy to enter Mr. Davine's cage. I'm certain that I can win whatever game it is. This is much better than staying back with other students and seeing Lucy.

But then, I realized that things will not always proceed smoothly the way I want it. It was not long before my mood plummeted again, even worse than before.

I sighed helplessly. What's with this situation?

I didn't bother to hide my frown as I faced Cedrick's eyes full of admiration. I'm inside Mr. Davine's cage, aren't I? I started doubting myself as I briefly surveyed my surroundings.

Upon seeing the unfamiliar place, I knew I really am inside his cage. Then why is this silly boy infront of me? Don't tell me the next stage is a team game? How wonderful. Really.

I sighed again. I feel like I sighed a couple of times today.

"Woah! Nasaan tayo?"

"This is such a creepy place,"

"Tayo lang ba lahat ng nakapasa?"

"Tch! That damn teacher repeatedly showed my nightmares to me! He's harassing us!"
