Celestial University: A Bully Romance

Chapter 68: Planning Future Scenes

Hours later, Candy had fallen in front of House Erebus, opposite Sven, reeling from the effects of her ice, and the only one of his hazing crew left standing.

"Serves you right you blue haired bit-

Bodin interrupted him with a drawn pigeon to his chest. Shocked he had the energy to stand, Sven had enough strength to summon a swarm of flies, encasing them and mud.

"You want to join her in the circle of losers? Be my guest!"

On the floor, Candy transferred her magic into the ground, flowing under Bodin's legs and ripped up a mass of land she shaped into a dress.

She froze it with the swing of her ice magic, which dropped down on Sven, sending him crawling into the dirt.

"That's, smarts," now completely unconscious.

Bodin ran over to her, helping her up. "You still had some magic left?"

She nodded, yawning. "I wanted to protect my new home with my training," pointing to all the graffiti she managed to remove from the dorm. "Why'd you come?"

"Well it's lonely at Terra without you. And I got extra cash selling my work to help your parents. Can they get the store back?"

"I, hope so. Thanks."

He took out a new brush, cleaning the mud off her face. She blushed as he wiped the remaining off her cheeks, planning a quick peck on her lips.

"An artist is only as cute as their canvas," unable to see her directly in the eye. The two awkwardly waited for the other to say something.

Just as Candy opened her mouth, she gasped at Sehki and Lorena tripping over a branch.

"Wow Candy, you took them all down and cleaned up the place. Glad I could trust you."

"Y-y-you're back? Did you find any leads?"

"Lorena," Bodin blinked. "Aren't you in House Poseidon?"

"I quit," with her luggage behind her

"Revenge, achieved, mysteries, unresolved. And I got us four tickets for the Victory Rider Movie. Wanna hear what went down after we beat up Taylor?"

——

Lorena let the rest of the inner circle know of Taylor's crimes, and the crew were not keen on letting him skate by with his actions.

"Coastrosity would try to cover it up," Starz pointed out. "So we'll let every tv and film studio who wants to work with anyone from Coastrosity know."

Yessenia agreed. "I don't want any of the citizens here with acting dreams to feel trapped here." She marveled at her sister's use in the suit. "Your date's right. It looks good on you."

"I've got a long way to go compared to you," starring at Taylor. "But I want to be myself for a change. Still, we got the evidence," pointing out a list of victims. "We'll need a way to get the survivors funds for recovery."

Sehki raised a finger. "You're the daughters of lawyers. You speak out, you sue. Right?"

Lorena shook her head. "I'm just a rookie compared to my dad. Yess is right, I can't do this alone. I'm not as strong."

He lifted her up by her cheek. "Yes you are. A lawyer needs clients, witnesses, and evidence. I don't know how long I'll be in this world, But I know I can be all three for you. And a friend."

Her eyes widened while a tear dropped. She was compelled to hug him without processing why, pulling back.

"I guess I'll have to earn my major first," as her sister wiped off potential drops.

"We'll earn enough to wake up dad for sure."

While the two sisters embraced, the officers of both groups had awakened.

"Cusp had only sent me given my StellArts was best suited. I'm not sure whether to classify the heir as a culprit or a victim."

"His family wants us to bring him back. It's our jurisdiction, but who turned them into this?"

Sehki and Lorena told them everything they knew but asked them not to go to the rulers unless they had an investigation on Cluster's identity and motives.

"The power to turn humans into Voids," the trio's face burst with shock. "We can't let that happen to any of our citizens. We'll be on high alert."

Gako looked around at the damage done to the neighborhood and the set. "Their homes have been destroyed by this much. Whatever revenue from this movie I'm making sure I give back to these people. They owe us that much."

Meanwhile, Lorena took Taylor's phone, unlocking it with ease: finding text messages he had sent to Professor Tychonis, including different women he had taken to see other movies majority Coastrosity owned.

"He probably had the coach use his StellArts to find their ideal type and get them to watch Coalition's movies with them."

"And Cluster was targeting certain actresses and actors. Did anyone ever say they saw someone with his appearance?"

Yessenia searched her profile. "This lady. She moved to Shugoda but said some creep attacked her," scrolling to a picture with her next to Rigal. "They broke up but either of them might have an idea."

Sehki smiled. "Perfect," he's next on my list. "This isn't dead yet."

He saw the crew collecting their footage, approaching the heart of the production. "Starz, will you still be able to finish the film?"

"Of course! You gave us so much footage. We'll just have to get creative with it!"

"Good," hoping one day he'd get to show it to Flint. "And I thought about your dilemma earlier."

"What should I do?"

"I don't know if my parents are truly innocent. But the more people from Umbra will speak up, they'll need someone to film their stories. You could lead that change."

"Really?"

"I'm sure my parents would be happy to know you gave their culture the key for a second chance. I'm not gonna let myself be bullied anymore. But even bully victims need the right support,"

She couldn't contain her excitement. "You can count on me, Prince Sehki."

He smiled as Taylor's head rose, regaining his sight.

"Huh, what's going on, where am I?"

Sehki kneeled down towards him, recording. "Hey, it's Rigal," making his tone buff. "We threw Prince Sehki off that cliff, right?"

"Huh," still dizzy. "Yeah, why?"

"Nothing, thanks," driving his wrath into his legs, knocking Taylor out again with a kick to the groin to the surprise of those who didn't know his motivation.

"Sorry, just needed to get that off my chest. Two heirs down, two to go."
