After he finished checking all the answers of the students, Alchemist Lenhart then called one of the names, "Seya," he said. Hearing this, Seya raised her hand.
"You have a pretty good answer, but this is still not enough, your theory still has many weaknesses and will lead to failure if you try."
"But it seems like you are gifted at doing crazy experiments with making humans live as a material."
"Have you ever done that?" ask Alchemist Lenhart.
"Sorry Alchemist, I never did. " She answered.
Alchemist Lenhart smiled, a smile that contained mystery. "If you continue to learn it, in the future, you will become a great person," Alchemist Lenhart gave a little praise.
"Thank you," Seya replied, there was a happy smile on her face.
"Thu I told you that you are great, until Pilar himself praised you" said Qeela.
They, the students began to whisper as a form of admiration, he who managed to get praise from a Pillar was certainly a great person. But on the other hand, there were also some envious students.
“I should have gotten that, it's just about something related to human anatomy. If the other discussion, I must have been greater, let alone Alchemist Lenhart saying his theory failed.”
“He's just lucky.”

Elsewhere, at the hospital where Qiara was being treated, Qiara was still unawakened from her sleep, like a princess sleeping in her long dream.
"A week has passed and you still haven't woken up" said Naeya, who was sitting next to him.
"You are like the sun in my life, coming and taking away the darkness that always follows."
"When I was about to die and had no hope, your presence changed everything and made me dare to dream."
"You gave me a light with which I walked in the darkness."
"I'm really scared if you don't wake up again, if you can, I want to take your place right now."
"Qiara, please wake up." Naeya only spoke to herself, bowed and full of sadness.

In the next place, in a corner of the city called Altera, there were 2 men standing, their faces could not be seen clearly because they were covered in hoodies.
"Oxsord, every year we've been looking for him, but until now we still haven't found him" Areen said.
"After reading the movement of nature, all signs have led to its emergence. But why until now we still have not found it?” Further.
"Patience, we will surely meet him, he who will lead us to the pinnacle of human order." Oxsord gave an answer.
“The Elders say, he has red eyes and wishes to exterminate mankind.”
“We just need to find it. Altera, this is the starting city for those who first set foot in Abyss.”
“If this year he comes, we just need to find him.” Oxsord.

Altera Alchemy Auditorium
2 Hours of time had passed in the learning process and during that time Nine was still asleep. This caught the attention of Alchemist Lenhart, so she started walking closer.
Seya looked worried to see Alchemist Lenhart coming towards him, he started thinking about all the possibilities that were happening, why the Alchemist was approaching, whether something was wrong, or Nine who was currently still not awake, Seya thought about it while looking at Nine who was asleep beside her.
"Wake him up, "The Lenhart Alchemist's orders to Seya.
Seya instantly did so, an expression of fear could not be hidden. Making a Pillar angry was not something that could be underestimated, in a sense, Seya knew about the Lenhart Alchemist.
After a long sleep, Nine finally woke up, did not appear on his face a sleepy expression, even though he had been asleep for 2 hours, he looked fresh and his face no longer described fatigue. However, on the other hand, tears clearly flowed in his left eye.
"Is your sleep good and why are you crying? " ask Alchemist Lenhart who is currently before him.
"Is it so painful? " hereinafter.
"Even if it is Pillar though, shouldn't it ask about one's privacy?" Nine replied, everything is written on the Abyss Encyclopedia.
Alchemist Lenhart smiled, "Alright, then do you know of your mistake? "
"It's not because I'm asleep. I know not my faults, unless the Alchemist informs me." Nine gave his answer calmly without being affected by intimidation.
"Just because there are rules that protect you, you dare to sleep my class, but you're right it's not your fault, but rather because there is no contribution that you give in the group."
"Is there a defense?" Alchemist Lenhart asked.
"Nothing" replied Nine.
"What if as punishment you get kicked out of the Abyss? " Alchemist Lenhart poses a threat.
Hearing this, there was no significant change in the countenance of Nine, except for Seya and Qeela who looked surprised. "Sorry Alchemist, if it can be considered again, I asked him to come even though he knew his condition was not okay" said Seya amid a conversation between Alchemist Lenhart and Nine.
"All right I'm going out, " Nine said regardless of what Seya said. Nine had strong self-esteem, begging was a shame.
"Are you serious?" said Qeela who heard that, "Abyss is everyone's dream, why you give up so quickly" he continued.
"Alchemist, is there no other punishment unless it is issued, "seya said asking for leniency.
“...” Nine was silent.
"How do you think being defended by two women, doesn't it feel good? " alchemist Lenhart told Nine.
"Not at all, and we'd better end this conversation, don't you want to hurry up and get me out" Nine confirmed everything.
Seya and Qeela who heard this as if in disbelief, also realized they would not be able to do anything to defend Nine.
"No, it doesn't seem like it's exciting. Punishment will be replaced by making your level minus 100."
"Alchemist punishment? " seya said, looking on her face a look of shock more than when she heard Nine would be expelled, not least with Qeela.
"Be quiet, you're too noisy. Otherwise, I will inflict his punishment upon you." threatening Alchemist Lenhart with such a powerful aura of intimidation, instantly made Seya instantly speechless.
"Alright, no problem, "said Nine received a minus 100 penalty.

Written in the Abyss Encyclopedia, minus level is the same as death, someone who gets a minus level penalty, then the person will not be able to reject Prysal.
Prysal itself is a fight by risking everything, death is an inevitability for those who lose. Those who are level minus like hunted animals in the middle of the hunters.
When someone gets a sentence of minus 100, at that time all notifications will be sent to all students in the Abyss, there is no hiding place for those who are at the minus level.
