Poison Eve
Chapters-64

Evelyn, Cleon, Altair and Xena begin to rush out of Nazareth's estate to the park where there is a large circular fountain in the middle of which is a golden statue of the God of Dreams.

"Sir—" Electra stuttered as she tried to dare herself to ask Nazareth. "Am I being punished too?"

"You think?" Nazareth asked in a low voice of intimidation.

Migi Vox stared at Electra with his eyebrows intertwined while perched on the man's shoulder with both hands crossed in front of his chest.

Electra glanced at her guardian with a pleading gesture.

Nyx Cornus did not react.

Electra then bowed, "Kukira—"

"Now I ask you, who are they to you?" sela Nazareth cuts the word Electra.

"Classmates, comrades in arms," Electra mumbled softly.

"As a solid comrade-in-arms, do you think it's appropriate that you keep quiet while your friends are punished?" Nazareth asked again.

Electra blinked and gulped, then turned to look at the backs of her friends with a sad expression. And hurried to follow them.

"Don't tell anyone what happened to you today!" Nazareth whispers a warning as Electra passes by.

Electra stopped her steps for a moment and frowned. Then nodded without looking. Then continue his steps.

"What should Electra be?" Nyx Cornus whispered to Nazareth while looking at the back of his asset son with concern.

"Without going through the hardships together, how can you be a solid teammate?" Nazareth.

Nyx Cornus went silent.

Hearing the footsteps behind them, Evelyn and her friends simultaneously turned their heads and stopped their steps.

"Ele?" Cleon frowned. "Are you punished too?"

Electra looked at her friends while smiling. "You are all punished" he said. "I have to endure it.

The four friends spontaneously blinked.

"But.." Evelyn stammered doubtfully.

"We're a team, remember?" the Electra hatch cuts Evelyn's word.

"We may have put you in danger" Xena's typical sulking gesture.

"What matters is that I'm here, right?" protest Electra quickly. "Come on!" said excited. And then ran ahead of the others. "You don't want us running around Morfeus Statue until the early hours, do you?"

"Of course not!" respond Cleon Jace quickly. Then he followed her, followed by the others. "My punishment is the most!" said. "I can run until morning if I don't hurry!"

"I will accompany you to thirty rounds!" Altair volunteered while tracking Cleon's steps.

"Me too!" Evelyn and Xena chimed together.

"Go's!" Electra thrust her fist into the air.

Reaching ten rounds, the five teenagers began to gag and gasp. Their steps were stifled. Sweat ran all over their bodies.

The other students watched them from the windows of the dorm room.

"The top five training turned out to be that hard" commented several female students with concerned facial expressions.

"I heard, Lord Vox himself guided their training!" comments of other children.

The other children were flabbergasted at the same time.

"In addition, they are also required to break through level thirty in the near future," the first child continued.

"You're the real culprit of gossip!" scorned the child who did not follow him crowded at the window.

The children who were clustered at the window simultaneously turned to the child who preferred to curl up in his bed with a denouncing look.

"And you're a hypocritical eavesdropper!" one of them was crowding at the window.

"Your voices can even wake the dead!" the child who is in his bed. "You're saying I'm a hypocritical eavesdropper?"

"SILENT!"

The buzz at the door made all the children flinch and scatter into their respective beds.

The whole room turned silent.

"Who taught you to gossip?" nyx Cornus grumbled as he turned and shook his head. And then hurry away.

"Lady Die," one of the hissing children held back a laugh.

The other children responded with giggles.

By midnight, the Morfeus Five were still standing around the Morfeus Statue pool. Their movements were already getting slower and helpless.

"Somebody remember how many rounds we've had?" evelyn asked in a frail and desperate tone.

"It feels like it's been five hundred rounds," Xena replied. Then slumped with the position of the face sliding first.

Evelyn and Electra immediately held him back and propped Xena up on her left-right, then continued their steps in slow motion.

Cleon and Altair ran while embracing each other, their steps had also slowed down like snails.

"Three more rounds," Cleon muttered gasping for breath. "And we've completed thirty rounds."

"Spirit!" electra said as she brandished her fists into the air. Then it collapsed with Evelyn and Xena.

Cleon and Altair let out a weak shriek as they reached out one hand. But along with that, they also slumped and collapsed on the floor of the conblock with a downturned position.

At five o'clock in the morning, they all woke up and found themselves in the medicine bath room.

Cleon woke up first in the male medicine bath room. He looked around with a withered eyelid and found Altair ungodly in the medicine bath next to him.

In the female medicine bath, Evelyn and Electra were awake together while Xena was still drooping.

"What time is it?" Electra asked in a raucous voice typical of people waking up.

Evelyn looked around for clues to the time and found a large wall clock the size of their wardrobe in Nazareth's estate, clinging to the wall above the fireplace. "Buck!" pekik's panicking.

Electra followed his direction and gasped.

Time shows six o'clock less than ten minutes.

Nazareth said at six o'clock in the morning they should all have gathered in the dining room.

The two girls immediately jumped out of the medicinal bathtub while grabbing their respective towels.

Xena gasped at the sound of a thunderous thump caused by her friends. Then he was surprised and looked at. His panicked gaze swept across the room. Then stop at his friends with squinted eyes.

Evelyn and Electra were wriggling in their uniforms.

"Thank God you're human!" electra said as she fastened her uniform. "Hurry now!" said. "You remember what Lord Vox said?"

"No need to protest!" xena replied mimicking Nazareth's speech style when scolding Nyx Cornus in a sleepy voice.

Evelyn and Electra spontaneously chuckled in response.

Shortly after, Xena jumped up and slumped, then splashed from the bathtub. Snatched the towel and put on his uniform with a panicked expression. "Remind me to take note of Lord Vox's extreme training schedule sequence," he said as if not breathing.

A moment later, the three girls had already darted out of the bathhouse and rushed towards the Nazareth hut, almost colliding with Altair who was no less panicked.

"Where's Cleon?" Altair asked the three girls.

"Please, don't ask!" The three girls rebuked simultaneously and burst past him.

Altair stammered for a moment before finally rushing after them.

Reaching the back porch that leads to the kitchen being one with the dining room, they smell the delicious aroma of cooking that makes their stomachs rumble.

The four teenagers scramble in the doorway and find Cleon already inside, sitting cross-legged in front of a classic oriental-style low table filled with a variety of foods that are still steaming.

Migi Vox sat cross-legged in the middle of the table looking up at them with his mouth full.

The eyes of the four teenagers were wide-eyed with an irresistible hungry expression.

Cleon turned to them with a smile.

The four friends stormed in and froze as they saw Nazareth behind the table, wearing apron and carrying two trays of freshly cooked food.

Evelyn stuttered at the man with an expression between hungry and passionate.
