Infinitum Crystals - Conquest of Virtue [4]

Chapter 6.6 - Zenith - The Order of Stardust & The Lemniscate Society

Lala and I finally decided to make our move as we begin searching for the whereabouts of White as well as everyone else from the Administration Magic Class. To be honest, we don't have a single clue as to where these guys are at the moment. We tried looking every nook and cranny of our campus and to no avail at all. Our initial search took about an hour or so.

"There's no way we can find them without a single clue, Zenith." Lala sighed as she sits down on one of the stone benches near us.

I crossed my arms and told her, "Oh come on, Lala. Are you giving up already? We've only been doing this for an hour."

"I told you that without a single clue, White and the others could be anywhere right about now. They might not even be here in campus." she told me.

The two of us remained silent for a moment. I almost contemplated over what needs to be done at the current time. With no idea on where to look out for White, I felt like I almost wanted to cry. But that tear didn't appear as I was then interrupted by an approaching fairy.

"Zen! Lala!" It was Recordia.

She appears to be coming back from her reconnaissance from the sky.

"Anything new?" Lala asked.

Recordia nodded and said, "Recordia saw a suspicious person just outside of the campus."

"A suspicious person? What do you mean by that, Recordia?" I wondered.

She continued, "I've seen that suspicious person before this. It was during the time when those guys are trying to kidnap White."

"Kidnap White?!" Both Lala and I surprisingly exclaimed.

"It happened during the music festival last time. Recordia will explain..." she then tells us the story when both Lala and I were someplace else during that time.

Recordia then went on to describe about what happened during the music festival. So apparently White was about to be kidnapped by this unknown people until Lilith and Diane arrived and saved him. At the end of the day, we still don't know who these guys are aside from their name being Aqua Liquid and Gaia Granite and they are from an organization called The Order of Stardust.

"Why do you think they want to kidnap him?" Lala asked us.

I told her what I think, "They could be working with the Chaos Champions, I think." I looked at both of them with a curious look. "But then again, they don't look like they are associated with them at all."

Recordia then added, "Those guys are unrelated to the Chaos Champions we have encountered so far. But they do have some kind of connection in relation to the time when White ate the Infinitum Crystal."

So they have that kind of connection, huh? That's actually very far than I expected. According to White himself, he ate that Dragon Infinitum Crystal during his final high school year. It happened earlier that year. I don't really know the detail but apparently the crystal was given to him by someone he assumes he knows. He said it was his cousin but now he wonders again if it really was his cousin or was it only that he got confused over having the same family name as White. That guy was Cyclone Flash. I wonder what's all these correlates to.

"We don't have much time to dawdle around." Lala got up from the bench. "Bring us to him, Recordia."

Recordia nodded as the two of us followed her. We followed her until she finally stops right at the front gate of our campus. Recordia pointed us toward somewhere outside of the campus. Near a tree there, there is a small food stall. The owner of the stall was the one who Recordia was pointing at.

"That guy? But that's just a food stall guy." I told Recordia.

Recordia shakes her head, "Recordia is not mistaken. That is Aqua Liquid. He is not even trying to disguise himself."
