The Mysterious Hero
20. Decisions

'The most important thing now is to complete your task. That way, no one else would have to lose their lives so tragically.'

Ah right, at least he should finish his task. This way there will be no more victims... Wasn't he?

Ruka tried to stand up, but instantly the dizziness and throbbing pain in her head, made the young man reflexively hold her head.

"Ughs... Am I using too much magic?" Mumbled slowly. A golden mark appeared under his eyes.

'Don't force yourself. You've used a lot of magic today, you better rest first. After all, the lesson hours have also started from earlier.'

Ruka's surprised. He glanced at the clock on his study table which had shown at 11:30. He slept for half a day?? Though his intention just closed his eyes for a moment.

"That's it..." Ruka again laid her body on the bed, closing her eyes with her right wrist.

Ruka took a deep breath. The mark under his eyes was still clearly visible. The young man cursed himself inside. How could it be this weak? Though just defeating Amdusias alone has drained a lot of his magic. What if I have to deal with Ba'al later?

"Hey Rin, was my decision to go back when it was wrong?" Ask Ruka. He remembered what happened after the great war. When his other friend decided to spread his strength, but not with him who chose to survive.

The pendant on the necklace that Ruka wore again shone. 'Whatever your decision, it's also for the good of everyone, right? Besides, I am happy with your decision, because with that I have a great brother like you, Brother Ruu.'

Rinka continued. "I was lucky to be born with spirit magic, a magic that was quite rare. But what makes me happier is that I can help Ruka finish the task."

A knotty smile appeared on Ruka's lips hearing her arik remark. "Thank you. I'll try my best."

The sound of sparrows rang out, birds perched on the edge of the window and sang their melodious chirps. The sun was shining brightly today, accompanied by a gust of wind that was so soothing.

Silence ruled the room. The other students who were attending the lesson made the atmosphere around the dormitory building completely quiet. Only the sound of birds chirping can make the atmosphere not completely mute.

It didn't take long for the golden-eyed young man to fall back asleep, re-exploring the subconscious in the cradle of the dream world.

Fortunately, there was not much damage caused this morning. All traces of the existence and the rest of the negative magic from Amdusias and his men were completely gone.

The goods that were damaged or destroyed due to the attack had returned to normal thanks to the magic that Ruka used.

The light magic flowing in his body made Zen still remember the incident clearly. However, even so it does not seem necessary to be considered a threat, because Ruka only needs to erase her memory if something troublesome happens.

For now, at least one issue has been resolved. However, that does not mean there will be no more problems coming. However, as a member of the STAMY security agency, Ruka must be available at all times. What's more... His main goal of coming to the academy was also related to the disciples in this Academy.

His initial goal of coming to STAMY was indeed to search for a disciple disciple with high magic abilities to help him defeat the Innimicus race.

But now it's not just that.

Ruka wants to create a safe world for all races to live in. Certainly not an easy thing, but after everything he's experienced so far, it never hurts to keep trying, right?

Although now the most important thing for Ruka is...

Looking for the right reasons on her teacher and classmates money may be suspicious or worried about her being suddenly absent without news on the second day of school!

Tok tok!

The door was knocked several times. But Ruka who was asleep did not hear the knocking sound.

Shortly after, the door opened slowly revealing a man wearing a dark brown suit and a white shirt who walked into Ruka's room.

Who else if not Amato, the principal of the Academy.

"Ruka, you're in" His words were instantly cut off when he saw the golden-eyed young man sleeping peacefully on his bed.

Amato walked slowly towards Ruka's bed. The back of his hand was indeed placed on the forehead of the young man, slightly surprised by the heat he felt.

"You're pushing yourself too hard, Ruka..." His words slowly, then reached out his hand, popping a white magic circle which then made Ruka's body glow covered in a faded white light.

"Rest. You've worked hard."
