Moonlight After Sunset's
LSTG Pt 5

"The illusion that was made was finally revealed, but the real truth was still hidden deep in darkness."

*****************#####*****************

"Sir, we found awkwardness at some point in the exam area" whispered one of Lucas' shadows.

"We also saw that a Prof was evaluating the place."

"It's very profitable for us."

A sneaky smile began to expand on Lucas' face.

He seems to be thinking of evil plans while still maintaining his natural smile in public.

"Watch it thoroughly, let nothing be missed. Keep reporting to me the progress."

"Good, sir."

The shadow then disappeared from behind the crowd.

On the other hand, Consort Jina who kept clasping her fists now started glancing gracefully towards one of the nobles. He gave the code to the nobleman who answered a nod of the head.

Moments later the nobleman was seen moving away from the podium along with his servant.

"Is that the rumored white tiger hiding in the Black Flores forest?"

A Count-ranked noble spoke up as he watched Dusk move away with Kun away from the view of the surveillance cameras.

"That's, just as it was rumored back then," whispered the other as he looked one way at Marques Winter. They looked at the Marques with a question mark.

"It was just an accident when my daughter and her friend were playing in the woods" exclaimed Marques Winter in response to the crowd's curiosity.

Marques Winter did not give details of the incident at the time. The audience who heard it felt that it was enough to prove that Dusk had a sacred animal by sheer coincidence.

"He chose his own master."

"That's right, although this is rare, it's real."

"I guess it's just bullshit, but it's true."

"What a lucky woman."

"He got lucky after breaking up from, hmm.., you know what I mean."

Ordinary people and prominent nobles talked to each other secretly about Dusk. They also know that there are rumors about the suicide of a Duke's daughter due to a breakup.

They argue with each other to decide that rumors are just rumors even after breaking up from the fifth prince, Dusk looks fine even better than usual.

"Changes can happen at any time" exclaimed one woman among them while the others nodded in agreement.

On the other hand, Prof Xei got word from prof Edward that there were 3 strange magic circles surrounding the artificial forest.

"Evote the guards to check it but remember not to panic first."

"Good, sir."

His subordinate Prof Xei left secretly without drawing any attention from the audience.

"Miss Aila."

"Yes, sir."

"Immediately create a teleportation magic barrier in the forest, we will capture them without losing a single person."

"Maya," Zakila shouted as she had just arrived at the gathering point.

"Where's Luna?" maya asked after she managed to get out of Zakila's arms.

"Luna is still dealing with Dira, she told me to go first."

Muna looked indifferent to Zakila's words.

"What about you Yaya? Are you all right?" asked Zakila who immediately got a sharp look from Maya.

"Yes?" Muna asked with a puzzled face, she had never seen Maya summoned like that before.

"Sit down first, we'll wait for the others."

Maya rushes off to Muna who is sitting quietly under a large oak tree.

A while later, Luna appeared in a magic circle not far in front of the three.

"Where's Dusk?" asked Luna immediately when she did not see the presence of Dusk there.

" ... "

Muna was the same as usual, she stared indifferently at Luna before shaking her shoulders.

"Zakila." Luna switched to Zakila but she also did not know about the condition of Dusk.

When night fell they could see ferocious sound waves coming from the North side. All of them stared at each other before turning their faces at the origin of the wave.

"It looks like it's Kun."

"He's back apparently."

"Maybe Dusk will come soon" exclaimed Muna who was still staring at the origin of the sound waves.

"She's a little late than before."

Zakila who still did not understand the situation back then only looked towards her three best friends in confusion.

"What are they really planning behind my back?"

Zakila's face grew darker considering that no one wanted to tell her, not even her twin brother.

As Muna said, Dusk came a while later more precisely 30 minutes after the wave of aura spread.

"You're late," exclaimed Maya casually as she helped Dusk get off Kun's great back.

"It's a little messed up before it can get back on track."

After Dusk came down Kun instantly turned into a small cat like before.

"I see," exclaimed Luna briefly after seeing how glazed the face of Dusk was at this moment.

"Sarah must have been very surprised to see the aura of Kun." said Maya while imagining Sarah's face flushed like a tomato.

"He must have never expected that Dusk had a legendary animal in his hands." added Luna who answered Maya's nod of the head.

A mischievous smile emerged from Zakila's lips that had been pouting in annoyance. He felt a little comforted when he heard how upset Sarah was in the fight against Dusk.

"We will rest for a while before starting again" cried Luna who got the nods of the heads of her four best friends. Soon they sat around the campfire before falling asleep.

The next morning, Dusk can see Luna and Muna are discussing something she cannot understand. Now they were all awake and ready to move.

"Today is the last day of the exam. We have to save time before it's all over."

"What are we gonna do?" asked Zakila who did not get an answer either from Dusk or Maya, her twin sister.

Zakila began to wonder if there was something they were hiding from her but the more she asked, the more silent they became.

"Let's start," said Muna as she walked away towards the depths of the forest.

"Come," cried the others simultaneously.

They finally came to an area where there was a huge strong barrier there. Slowly the barrier disappeared and revealed a group of men wearing black robes who stared at each of them sharply.

"I will finish you all off" exclaimed one of the mysterious men as he stared intently at the five companions.

"What's this?" zakila asked in shock when she saw the many mysterious men who were ready to kill them all with her gaze.

"My answer, what's the matter?" snapped Zakila loudly while glancing at Maya and the others.

"Don't shut up, can't you explain it to me, huh?"

" ... "

"This is definitely not what we were talking about at the time?" ask Zakila again.

"What is this seb... "

Zakila's words came to a halt as Maya cut him off quickly.

"They are hired killers assigned to make us disabled, ah or rather dead," Maya exclaimed indifferently as she walked up to one of the mysterious men.

"Paiders? Why?"

"They are just pawns that Dira and concubine Jina used to kill me but this will also make you hurt because of the grudges of each of her friends." explained Dusk with an icy-cold facial expression.

"Ladies, you take it easy, we won't hurt you and end this quickly." exclaimed one of the robed men.

"..."

Neither Dusk nor the others remained silent, they were even indifferent to the man's words.

Feeling ignored he immediately moved to attack Maya who was standing not far in front of him.

But he had not had time to lash out an attack, a hard slap landed on the man's cheek and made him cough up blood with some teeth falling out.

"Ghuk.., shit," his grunts when Maya's slap made him vomit blood.

"It's just the beginning." - Maya is cold.

" ... "

The entire body of the man started to stiffen and creep when he saw the sly smile engraved on Maya's lips.

"We will pull them out of the blind spot so that the audience and the noble can find out who Dira really is." exclaimed Luna explaining her original plan.

"But you must know one thing, after this incident there will be more dangers that will come to kill us all." continued Luna before separating from her best friend.

"Luna is right, they will definitely target each of us to be eliminated in the future" continued Muna who had just been silent.

"Therefore prepare yourself as best as possible, they could have escaped this but one thing is certain that after this incident we are no longer ordinary students." muna continued before she walked away.

*****

The spectators who were still looking at the screen window thought to each other of wild speculation.they were curious what Luna and her group were doing at the forest blind spot.

In addition they also saw Dira and his four friends were busy fighting endless monsters underground.

"It's very boring." said one of the spectators who wanted to leave the podium.

"You're right, I'm wondering what Luna's daughter and her friend are doing." continued the other with a lazy expression.

"They were very mysterious from the beginning of the exam to the present. I wonder what will happen next."

The spectators whispered to each other while still looking at the window of the exam screen.

"They...! Huh, what is that?"

Shouted one of the spectators as his attention was diverted to the screen window revealing a fierce fight between Luna's group and the mysterious group wearing black robes.

"Who are they?"

The questioning gaze of each audience was directed at prof Xei who also looked equally puzzled.

"What's true Miss Ari said about the plan."

All the eyes of the audience were on the man who said that all the words of Dusk were the truth.

"They look chaotic, I think this is also the reason why they hid stamina from the beginning of the test" he continued to justify the rumors that had been circulating since.

"Our suspicions were finally answered" the others were satisfied.

"What do academics do to allow intruders to enter the exam?"

Now all the attention is on the exam organizers. They feel academic security has weakened since a mysterious energy outbreak on the first day of school.

"There is something strange here" whispered one spectator who had remained faithful in his chair from the beginning of the test.

"It's really weird, it's not usually that the academics are negligent like this."

Hearing the muttering of the spectators made Prof Xei act quickly. At first he was also shocked but all this was anticipated beforehand.

"Miss Aila."

Soon Miss Aila cast a barrier spell all over the forest.

"We'll move all the students now." the head of school orders all the teachers on duty.

"Good, sir."

*****

The twilight that was on Kun's shoulders continued to swing teleportation magic at Luna and Muna who were fighting against those hitmen. They worked together in a formation that had been set up from the start.

"This incident was quite unexpected fun and now what more reason will they make to remove the trace."

Dusk began to smile happily in his mind. He felt that all his plans would work this time.

"This is the beginning. The beginning of it all," said Dusk indifferently while aiming at one of the assassins who was about to attack Zakila from behind.

"Keep fighting, I will guard your backs," cried Dusk at his friend who was answered with a nod of the head by the four of them.

"Lily, get in the way of a barrier."

Dusk could see a barrier that suddenly covered an area of the forest.

"This must belong to Miss Aila," exclaimed Dusk still focused on seeing the fight that was in front of her.

"Miss, the barrier has been made."

"Good, with this they will be teleported after the exam is completely over, and there are still 8 more hours before the exam actually ends."

Dusk intentionally does this so that all students still run their exams well. In addition, Dusk deliberately did this so that the Dira group could be tormented for longer in the fight against underground monsters.

"Nobody can get into our fight, they can't see at all that this place is in a fierce fight."

Dusk deliberately told Lily to make a transparent but powerful dome to cover the fight being carried out by his group so that the other students were not affected by the big one.

On the other hand, Miss Aila became agitated as she could not teleport her students immediately towards the podium field.

"Sir, my magic is scuttered."

"How can you?" asked prof Xei who was confused by Miss Aila's expression.

"I don't know either, I've been trying to move the kids here but none of my magic has managed to move them."

"Damn. Call Edward immediately."

"Good, sir."

Miss Aila finally came off the podium and immediately headed to Prof Edward's place. Arriving there, Miss Aila could see that Prof Edward looked very relaxed even arguably he was like a person who did not have a burden.

"Prof!"

Prof Edward glanced at the source of the call. She could see the panicked face of Miss Aila.

"What the hell is this Prof?"

Prof Edward was silent, without answering Miss Aila's questions.

"You're supposed to save the disciples instead of sitting down and enjoying a cup of coffee like..."

"You can't move them, can't you, that's why you came here hoping I would."

Miss Aila's eyes were wide open when the intent of her arrival was already known.

"If you already know, then..."

"There's nothing we can do if Dusk doesn't want this to end."

"Well, what do you mean, prof?"

" ... "

Prof Edward just stared lazily at Miss Aila before continuing.

"Can't you feel the strong energy of the barrier."

Prof Edward pointed at the transparent barrier in the sky. Miss Aila looked at the sky with a gaze that seemed to say 'That's the barrier I made, what's with it.'

"Not what you made, but the other one."

"Huh?"

Miss Aila looked confused, she tried to refocus her eyes and she could see a transparent wall covering her wall.

"From now on, we can only wait for them."

" ... "

"Sit down here and enjoy this coffee I made."

Miss Aila could only stare blankly at Prof Edward before sitting down and grabbing a cup of coffee poured into the glass before her.
