A Funny Villain

Chapter 8: The Law of a Balanced Plate (II)

The Law of a Balanced Plate (II)

The sun is setting down with its golden red rays radiating the entire Crystal Tower Academy. It was almost the end of classes for the day.

'Please just practice your magic. I won't be around class for today. Just let me sleep.' — was written on the board

In the middle front of the classroom, Bendry was sitting idle. His hands rested on his lap, tightly clenched. His head was looking down and his whole body is sweating. Everyone in the class saw this strange occurrence but no one dared to touch him ever since they saw him acting strange a while ago.

Bendry's face was sullen. This wasn't his normal face. He was so quiet making the entire classroom to turn quiet as well. He took the entire afternoon classes staying silent that even his acting as a stoic-faced villain did not even show up. He was just grievously in deep thought the whole afternoon...

about how to escape.

As the last bell rang as a signal of the end of their classes, Bendry swiftly ran outside while holding the book. What matters now is just to escape.

He was going down the stairs, when he saw three students with blocking the stairs. These students already stood in the area moments before classes ended just to prepare for Bendry. They were already prepared so when they saw him running, they immediately released their magic.

Two of them wield fire magic. Fireballs surrounded them as if they were prepared to be thrown to Bendry. The other girl wields wind magic. Bendry noticed those visible waves of wind waving her hair around.

The two students wielding fire magic immediately threw fire balls to him as he nearly approached them. Out of fear, Bendry's body automatically moved on its own and avoided the fire balls coming to him with a swift move. As the fire balls slowly disappeared, he immediately turned towards the wildlives. 

"Hey! Is this even allowed in this school?! You're trying to get me get me killed!" Bendry pondered, considering this is a fantasy world, does it mean children here playing with fire is just normal?

The three students are surprised by Bendry's moves. Everyone thought he could not fight. On top of that, his moves were not normal. They saw a lot of knights learning how to evade magic attacks all the time but they were not as tricky as Bendry. Bendry seemed just randomly swaying around as if he was dancing.

Well, their president guessed it right. The great mage warned them that Bendry had some strange trick of dancing like a snake.

"Magic attacks..." The fire magic wielder no. 1 spokr. "... are not allowed anywhere in school unless during magic class and must be in the proper location...." He formed a much bigger fireball while talking. "... and unless it's you."

What?!

The fire magic wielder no. 1 threw his bigger fireball at him.

"That was unfaaaiir!"  He wildly complained. Out of fear from the pain, his body automatically moved again to evade the fireball.

"You do not even know that?" The fire magic wielder no. 2 mocked him. "Your father was even the one who filed that law in this academy!"

He decided to continue running straight to them while still holding the book.

The wind magic wielder girl locked him with her tornado attack when Bendry jumped over the small tornado. Just before he jumped over, another fireballs are coming his way. The fireballs' momentum changed as the wind magic wielder controlled their direction using her wind.
