Astral Wizard Academy

Chapter 6

Three students could be seen running down the hallway.

"Seraphineeee!!!" Estrellia called at the top of her lungs, chasing after Seraphine who doesn't seem to care at her.

"Estrelliaaa!! Fuck! Stop running!!" Elros shouted while running, trying to catch up with her.

'Mom will kill me if something bad will happen to her!'

The thought of their mother's fury struck fear into him.

Estrellia struggled to catch up with Seraphine, and same goes with Elros. Seraphine continued on running with a map clutched on her hand as she focused on Spade.

'I better not see a single bruise on you, Spade Black.'

After a few minutes, Seraphine paused when she spotted Spade running off somewhere.

'Where is he going?'

Estrellia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Seraphine pause, but it was short-lived as Seraphine took off again.

'I'm so tired' ╥﹏╥

After a few more minutes, Seraphine stopped in front of the men's bathroom where she saw Spade go in. She stepped inside and immediately spotted him with headmistress Emberheart and three other professors.

Seraphine slowly approached them, noticing a first-year male student frozen in stone as his mouth and eyes are open.

"What do you think, headmistress?" Asked the man who had burst into the senior class earlier.

"I have no idea, professor Quimos. What do you think, professor Virella?" Headmistress Emberheart asked, turning to the quiet professor.

Professor Virella approached the stone student and examined him.

Seraphine tapped Spade's shoulder, giving him a sharp look.

"What are you doing here?" She whispered, yet the coldness in her voice was there, making him gulp.

Spade suddenly remembered something that turned made him pale, catching Seraphine's attention. She sighed and focused her attention in front.

"Tell me everything later." She ordered coldly and Spade nodded even though she had already turned away.

"There was no hint of any spell, headmistress." Professor Virella announced after she had completed her inspection.

"No spell? Impossible." Professor Quimos commented.

"If it's not a spell... then what?" Headmistress Emberheart muttered.

Seraphine examined it closely, her eyes catching on a small, nearly invisible liquid on the student's hand. The fluid was transparent, blending into the statue.

The others turned as she approached. She wiped off the liquid with her finger, rubbing it with her thumb.

'It's sticky'

She thought and smelled it.

'But it doesn't have any scent'

"What are you doing here, child?" Professor Alaric asked, puzzled.

"You shouldn't be here, go back to your dorm!" Professor Quimos scolded, slightly irritated.

Headmistress Emberheart observed Seraphine's expression, but her face was unreadable. A small carved on her lips before she turned serious.
