Evil Is Good

Chapter 4

I also noticed that there were other students maybe this is what Alyssa meant when she said I wouldn't be alone.

It would seem that the whole school was eager to watch the judging, from the inside the stadium looks like a roman coliseum, at the very heart is huge space covered by some sort of mirror it's like a dome separating us from the spectators above us.

"That glass-dome is the exam" a deep baritone voice said out of no-where, when I looked behind me revealed a tall guy smiling at me. He has this golden tan skin that goes well with his raven-black hair, he wears an attire for boys, a purple long sleeve with a black necktie paired with a white vest that has the logo of the Academy on the upper left of his chest, and black pants and shoes

"What do you mean by that?" I ask in confusion, hearing this made him chuckle

"That glass dome there is like a projector, where it projects what kind of test we would have, specifically the terrain and enemies we would fight, didn't they told you this before you entered?" He asked me clearly seems amused by my lack of knowledge.

"No, they didn't thanks by the way, my name is Sakura Amateru" I introduced myself and offered my hand.

Hearing my surname made his eyes widened in surprise, his mouth formed into a coy smile as if he was planning on doing something mischievous,

"Oh my, where are my manners, Pleasure to meet your acquaintance Princess, I am Lucas Skern" He introduced himself and he joined it with mock bow.

Seeing his gesture brings a smile to my lips, "No Sir Lucas the pleasure is mine" I joined his theatrics and made a court bow like a proper princess would do.

Seeing each other's antics made us both laugh at our silliness, It is nice to know that there is someone like him in the academy. 

"So what is your ability?" I asked in wonder

"Well if I told you it wouldn't be a surprise now wouldn't it?" He said cheekily, making me giggle at how cute he is.

But our attention was by the blaring of the trumpets marking the start of the event. A huge holoscreen popped out that revealed Ms. Flora in a podium about to address her speech.

"Students, Welcome back for another year at Twilight Academy, it is nice to see familiar faces once again and I'm sure you all as well are happy that you have met your friends once again." She announced earning the loud cheering of students seated at the bleachers.

But all cheers were stopped with a raise of her hand, "But today we gather for a different reason, that is to welcome the new comers to our academy, now without further ado let us welcome the transferees!" 

When I heard her announcing our entrance my heart thumped loudly in my chest, the beat was deafening I couldn't hear the cheers of the students on the bleachers just beating of my heart, nervousness took over my body.

Slowly one by one each of us revealed ourselves to the crowd and I was the last one. I took a deep breath and followed, stepping out head held high like I always practiced at home. As we revealed ourselves to the crowd, silence enveloped the whole arena.

The silence wasn't helping the feeling of judging eyes of the spectators; as if they were hungry wolves stalking they're prey, nervousness slowly overcoming my body.

"Now without further ado let us call in the Twilight Kings!!" A large round of applause could be heard around the stadium.

"Here they come" said Lucas beside me.

It seems that these kings are quite influential around here that I thought. "You know them?" I ask him.

"Know them? I admire them! They are the best of the best, especially the Black King, I hear he is the most powerful one and he took a seat in the Grand Council as one of the youngest member to join." He said in awe as he stared at the podium.

Hearing this, made me wonder on what kind of people these Squad leaders are, especially the one who took a seat at the Grand Council of Wizards. A council made up of only the wisest and most powerful magi in the country of Arus. How powerful is this person? To have achieved such a high honor in the Grand Council? I'm about to find out.

As the applause settled down Ms Flora continued, "First up is the Red King, Kiba Zaraki the Bloody Wolf!" as Ms, Flora announced the name a crimson haired boy stepped out of the backstage, he wore the white school uniform but his has a slight difference, he had a red band wrapped around his right arm. You could tell by the way he stood, he was someone powerful and don't even get me started with the smirk adorned in his face showing his razor-sharp teeth and the bloodthirsty glint in his eyes. 

"The Blue King, Leonidas Xephone the Hunter of the Sea" once again a Person stepped out but this time what I saw surprised me the revered blue king was younger than me, by the way he look it seems he may be younger by a year or two from my age, Leonidas had hazelnut hair, and tan skin tone, unlike the Red King he adorns an innocent face as he smiles kindly at the audience, yet by the way he holds himself in front tells me that under that innocent façade is someone not to be underestimated.

"Next is the White King, Asher Lancaster the Holy Emperor!" a tall man stepped out that made every girl gasped in awe at his beauty, he had golden locks that look like they glow like the Apollo in the sky, his cerulean blue eyes were enchanting and his face adorns a innocent smile that could melt your heart at the sight.

A lot of the female audiences were swooning over the White King's beauty, a lot have been either cheering his name or trying to get his attention, it didn't help that he was smiling at waving at everyone, which gave the girls a renewed vigor.

"Now, now settle down, if you girls adore the White King, then I'm sure the boy's will love our next King, without further ado! The Yellow King! Alyssa Mionette Craig, the Moon Priestess!" wait.. It can't be

And there stepped out of the stage the very person that welcomed me into the Academy, Alyssa waving at the audiences while they cheered for her mainly the boys, but even then a lot of people cheered and called out her name. 

Who knew that the Alyssa I consider my friend was one of the Twilight Kings, a powerful individual in this school; I was both astonished and happy that I made a friend with one of the Twilight Kings! Oh Chaos! She would have to explain why she didn't tell me. 

"Lady Alyssa! I Love you! I'm your biggest fan!" Someone shouted beside which made me jump in surprise, when I looked to find who was the culprit to find no other than Lucas who was too busy fawning over Alyssa to notice that he scared me with his loud cheering.
