I walk around the campus, engrossed about how my pair of guns turned into a knife, "What the heck is going on?" I whispered to myself, hurrying to the library to see if I could find out some information about my weapon. Once I arrived inside, the giant bookshelves towered me. From the looks of it, there would be around hundreds... No thousands of books everywhere.
Rather than feeling fascinated, I already felt myself exhausted just by looking. I don't want to search through all these books it would be too tiresome, "Ugh" I groaned, looking for a book anyway. To my most greatest luck, the first book I grabbed from the bookshelves caught my interest. The book title was, 'Hybrid Power'.
I scanned through the book and read most of the pages.
Hybrid Power is an ancient ability that allows the user to hold great power. But the more power the user holds, the more demons it attracts. To power wielders, one could usually obtain a certain element of power that connects to one another such as ice and water or fire and lightning however, the special one hybrid has the power to wield all kinds of ability it wants to posses. There is no limitations to the users power thus it can be very dangerous. The only one who can equally go against the hybrid power is the demon hybrid. It was known that the demon hybrid tamed the hybrid user.
"Demon Hybrid?" I question myself, flipping through the pages but there was no explanation about the demon hybrid. That's weird. When I reached the last page of the book, there was a short sentence that was bolded saying, 'Embrace who you are and don't let evil consume you'.
"it's like this book was dedicated to someone" I told myself, walking over to the sleeping librarian and rented the book. I still have more pages to read but the training is going to start soon.
Suddenly an alarm began to ring throughout the whole campus while I jump in surprise. Is this supposed to be some kind of drill? If so, where the heck do I go?! "All students, report to the auditorium immediately!" A voice said through the speakers. No, I'm sure this isn't some kind of drill. But if it's not, then what is it?
My question was answered when I saw flying demons from afar, making their way towards us. "We're being ambushed?!" I yelled to myself, running my fastest towards the auditorium and just as I arrived, I notice that everyone were also hurrying to be here.
From the stage, the handsome principal that seemed like a prince and somewhat resembled the knight appeared, "Everyone, prepare for battle! The demons came sooner than I expected. In order to protect the real world, we must not allow the demons to destroy the tower!" says the principal. And here I thought we were going to evacuate.
We all head outside and lined up by our uniform dress code. As I expected, I was at the very back of the fight formation while Blake and the others were at the front. When I gawk at the front lines student, each and every one of them had their own unique weapon and their expression is completely different from us. When the demons and monsters were close to us, they began attacking. I simply watch them, trying to analyze the enemy's movement until the principal rested his hand on my shoulder, "Carmella, do me a favor and fight along the legend class. Your healing powers is extremely rare and they need to be immediately treated" he explains while I nodded my head and rushed to the front lines. My classmates watch me in confusion while the Blake noticed me and he ran to me, "What are you doing here?!" he panicked, breathing heavily.
I touch his bleeding arm and cupped his cut face, "Don't worry, I'll be here when you need help" I reassured him. He closes his eyes for a second and rubbed his face against my palm like a dog while holding it. For a second... No for more than a second, I felt a small ignition inside me. What was that?
"Thank you" he smiled for the first time ever. There are times when this man in front of me can be very kind. I didn't expect he would have such a gentle side. Maybe.. Maybe I can-
"You would be very useless to everyone. Just try not to bother us or else I would put you back to your own class. After all, these demons are quite strong" he says while I pouted. As I thought! This man is nowhere near gentle or kind at all! Geez what was I about to say earlier? Like him? Fall in love with him? AS IF!
"A-aghh!" I heard someone cry in pain. When I turn my head to that direction, I saw a beautiful lady laying down on the ground while trying to stop the excessive bleeding on her leg, "It's okay I'm here. You'll be fine, you'll be fine" I reassured her, resting my palm on her wound as it closes up thanks to my ability.
As more time pass, the more people I had to heal and the more I gradually became tired. It was draining a lot of magic power inside me and I don't think I can handle anymore, "You should rest" the lady from earlier appeared. I shook my head with a smile on my face, "I'm alright. It's you who should rest. Your leg is not completely healed yet" I told her.
"I'm Seri from legend class. What's your name?" she started. As I was healing someone else from the sidelines, my other hand shook hands with her as a proper greeting. Out of all the females who always sent me glares and hateful vibe, she was the first to be so kind to me, "I'm Carmella from Amateur class" I responded.
The principal appeared before us and kneeled down to level himself with me, "Carmella, from now on. you'll be part of the legend class" he explains while both Seri and I had shocked expression. He soon walks away while my patient was completely healed and went back to the battlefield, "Hey Carmella, are you close with the principal?" Seri asked me.
"Close? Uhm no. This is only my third time speaking to him" I told her.
"Only? That's actually quite a lot. Other than Blake and Frost, no one has ever spoke that many to the principal. He's very intimidating and is strict. That's why no students dare to even speak to him privately"
"I don't think he's intimidating at all and he is very kind" In fact, he actually saved me when I first came here when I was falling. I'm sure of it, he is that knight when I first came to this world. He and that knight has the same mole under their eye.
"How weird" Seri says while I secretly agreed. That's right, how weird.
