The Mysterious Hero
27. The hidden plan

Ruka placed the bowl of porridge that had been exhausted on the table. His hand moved to grab the remaining cup of warm chocolate and drink it to the end. A smile was engraved on her sweet face, looking at the debates of her two classmates.

I don't know when the last time he laughed like that, and I don't know the last time he saw a debate like this. It feels like remembering the past.

Ruka rubbed her cheeks, the mark was completely gone by now. He was grateful that no one had seen him, but on the other hand he also knew he could not keep it hidden. Sooner or later everyone will know who he really is.

But when that happens, maybe the situation will be much different than it is now. Because it means that what was his purpose in coming here has already happened.

Great wars and disasters that threaten other races in this world. It was only because the power-hungry figure who wished to regain the peace of this world, mastering all races under the grasp of his hands. If he failed to stop her, perhaps a beautiful moment like this would never be felt again.

However, he must help the princes and other disciples to become stronger, so that their happiness does not fall back into the grasp of the Inimicus race. Because only they were capable of facing such a cruel demon race.

"Hey Ruka, why daydream? Is there a problem?"

Ruka raised her face, all immersed in her own thoughts making her forget the existence of the two young men.

Hika looked worriedly, clearly she was really worried about her.

"I'm fine. I'm just... Just a little thought of something." Ruka smiled, trying to convince Hali and Hika that she was fine now.

But it seems that reason is not too influential for Hali. The ruby-red bead stared at with a probing look, clearly doubting Ruka's reply. "You sure?"

Hali is not someone who can be lied to that easily. His ability to read the look of a person's face makes it easy to know if the person is lying or not.

And looking at Ruka now, he knew clearly that the young man was trying to hide something behind his smile.

Ruka nodded. " No need to worry. Oh yeah, how was the class? Is there anything I missed? Is there PR?" Tanya Ruka tried to divert the conversation.

Hearing that, Hika just sighed.

Eh? Is there something wrong with his words?

"Kau nih Ruka... Kau kan masih sakit, buat apa mikirin PR segala sih?" Hika nampak menggelengkan kepala nya. "Otak mu itu perlu istirahat tau, gimana mau sembuh kalau masih sakit saja masih memikirkan PR?"

"A-ahah sorry. I just don't want to miss a lesson." Ruka smiled wryly.

"There's not much you're missing, just useless stuff and a few announcements." It's clear Hali is finally.

Frowning, "what announcement?"

"So, soon there will be a school festival that will be held for 3 days. The first day is a club activity to determine whether the club is worth continuing or just hitchhiking without doing anything. Then after that is the selection to find the best team that will follow special training. It's short that's it." Hali.

He almost forgot about the festival. Along with the school anniversary festival, the rest of the day after the club activities, he planned the match to select the 10 best people he would train specifically. In addition, as well as his strategy to choose the best children who will be on the front line when the war arrives.

Seeing Ba'al who had started to launch his troops, certainly made it could not be too long to delay the time. He must gather strength to save the world.

"You guys have started preparing, right? Maybe this match will be difficult, considering that will participate not only from your generation, but your senior seniors as well."

Hika looked confident. He folded his hands in front of his chest, and exhaled a small breath. "Hey, I'm a prince, my strength cannot be underestimated, they will be defeated with a single attack!"

"Ouch!"

Suddenly arrived an affectionate blow landed on Hika's head, making her moan. Who else did it if not the firstborn of the Cromwell family? "Don't be too confident just yet. Not necessarily you'll win just because you're a prince. Although our abilities are great, but the experience of the seniors certainly cannot be underestimated. Overconfidence in the beginning will only lead you to defeat."

Ruka smiled hearing him. He deserves to be crown prince. "What Hali said. You guys don't know how strong your seniors are either? You better be ready, keep practicing diligently and don't just use your magic."

"All right..." Hika resignedly said while puffing her cheeks.

"Oya, besides that there is another funny incident in class~" Hika's face suddenly changed back cheerful. He laughed a little considering what had happened in the class.

"Ohya? What's the matter?"

"So..."

Flashbacks

YGG!!!!

The bell rang, students entered their classes. But there was one thing that caught their attention at the time. An empty chair where Ruka was supposed to be sitting there.

"Pst... Has the chairman come yet?" Ask Hika.

Leon was asked just shrugging his shoulders. "Either... Maybe-"

"Good morning son."

"For the sir."

Not finished Leon replied, Alpha sir has already entered carrying a book absent. His sharp gaze, coupled with his black suit and dark blue shirt, made Nye look like a mob boss.

Again another question came to mind of the entire student in the class. 'Is she really a witch?'

Mr. Alpha looks at the empty chair where Ruka is supposed to be sitting, and seems to take notes. No one spoke up at the time. Either because of fear or they do not want to face their terrible homeroom.

"Alright, first of all I want to congratulate you, for trying your best to win the duel in an impromptu test, although it is very clear that there are shortcomings of each of you."

The entire class then gulped down the forced saliva. What does it mean they all succeeded?

"Now, we get into the main topic,"

The whole class then becomes. 'Immediate test again?'

"Classman's choice."

"Thank God... Finally there's normal school work..." The expressions of the students who had been tense now began to soften and relax again. At least now do not have to get tired of fighting on the field or another.
