The Wiz
Chapter 13: The White Clan

Camoline blinked her eyes a few times. He began to realize the mistake he had made just now. Clucking softly, Camoline tried hard not to look suspicious.

"I was just playing around with that saying. After all, why have to be an element if you want to improve your abilities?" Camoline's question managed to distract the three girls. Rashi took a long breath.

"Not one element either. I mean—"

"I'll use plant elements. At least, I can increase the defense while you increase the attack" Camoline said. Lily nodded with a wide smile. I totally agree with Camoline. Unlike Violetta who looks still thinking.

"Although it's a good idea, we've never learned a lesson in a fight like this" Violetta said in the end. Camoline sat back down. He put on a sour face.

"It's because of that. We can learn better after doing so. Mistakes like anything, will be a valuable science when we get a fighting class," explained Lily. When viewed at this moment, the girl was indeed like the most mature. Camoline always doubted this. Lily was no more like a child in her eyes.

"How, Rashi? If you don't want to, I can ask Lily or Violetta to train together. At the very least, we'll have something to see for the top officials of the Palace." Rashi stared at Camoline for a moment before sighing deeply. He understood Camoline's intentions. And it is true, all students want to show good things to the Palace officials so that the good name of Topaz academy is maintained. However, he still doubted.

"Why are you so sure, we should show our abilities to the Palace higher-ups? Don't you think it's usually just the chosen students?" rashi asked after being silent for a while. Camoline was still silent as Rashi stared at her. He smiled after a moment passed in silence.

"Whoever no one will know, the way of their minds. Before they give us a surprise, we have to give that surprise first" Camoline replied. Rashi nodded in understanding. In essence, they must be ready even though they are not necessarily going to be candidates for people who are watched directly by the officials of the Palace.

"All right, I get it. Then where are we going to practice?" Camoline smiled in response to Rashi's question. He looked towards Londer. The man, was very clearly waiting for his answer. Apparently, Londer also stole their conversation apart from continuing to be at close range with him.

"Now" Camoline whispered a little. The three girls frowned. Soon there are classes they must take. It would be very rude if they did not take classes while still a new student. Moreover, his goal was to conduct a fight without the guidance of a teacher.

Rashi shook his head strongly. Although he agreed to train with Camoline, but not by skipping class. He doesn't want to do that. Shown in his head is the anger of his family when it comes to getting reports of bad behavior that he did here.

"No, I'll never do it. You practice alone." Camoline's facial features instantly changed when Rashi followed two other girls up from the chair. Lily looked at herself pityingly before saying an apology with just a movement of her lips. Camoline let out a long sigh after the three girls left her. He chuckles. True enough all along. The clan of the three girls were indeed cowards long ago. Never take a risk.

And Camoline believed that, they were already subject to the black clan at this time. Although before, they were so siding with his clan. Sighing softly, Camoline closed her history book slowly.

Maybe now, he should take the class thinking about the right time to start practicing. Also, find the right place so that no one bothers him. He would not rely on the three girls to train. Seeing their reaction just now, made Camoline very sure that they were not the right person.

"Sucks," Camoline muttered. Standing up from her chair, Camoline hugged the tome as she walked out of the library. If factored in, he would be a few minutes late if he reached History class today. In addition to the time that has been thinned, the distance from the library to the History class is quite far. If it could teleport, that was the most advantageous thing for now.

Camoline's footsteps came to a halt when she was just in front of the library exit. His eyes looked at Londer in confusion. A little incredulous when the man was still around the library. Recalling, he clearly saw the man immediately standing up after the departure of Rashi and his friends.

"You're going to be late for class, young master," Camoline said. There was one new thing that he really regretted. Meeting and being seen close to the prince of the Chromos clan made himself looked down upon by other disciples. That's natural too. Because no one knows his origin.

"None of you, Miss." Londer put both of his hands in his pocket. Slightly bent over to stare directly at Camoline's iris. At a fairly young age, Londer is easy to attract the attention of everyone. His tall stature with a handsome face, was the thing that made this man have a lot of devotees. Although Camoline acknowledged Londer's good looks, she refused to become one of Londer's devotees.

The man drew his face closer to Camoline's. Teasing the girl in front of him who was increasingly putting on an annoyed face. Both corners of Londer's lips were rising. Camoline clearly held back the nervousness. The face of the girl before herself stood up straight again with an oddity. He seduced Camoline.

"Your face is flushed," said Londer without guilt. Camoline clucked loudly. He wanted to get out of there immediately but, both of his legs felt stiff to step on. What Londer had just done, really had a big effect on him. And that, is so annoying.

"Go away. I don't want to see your face" Camoline said in a faint tone. Londer stopped his laughter. However, he smiled widely with eyes that stared at Camoline mischievously.

"You sure? I'm afraid you'll miss me" said Londer. Lifting both shoulders nonchalantly, Camoline shifted then stepped up to leave Londer. However, the man pulled his arm, until he returned to his original position.

"Did you mean to ask me to ditch?" Londer did not answer. He just smiled. The smile that Camoline thought was really suspicious.

In just one attraction, Camoline is already very close to Londer. Without her being able to predict, the man's lips had already landed right on his thin lips. Lubricating slowly, making Camoline's body suddenly become stiff. There's nothing Camoline does. He feels paralyzed.

Londer opened both of his eyes slowly. He looked at Camoline who was very close in front of him. He himself did not expect, would do such a bold thing to a girl who clearly saw herself as a rival. However, Londer vowed never to regret having done this.

"I don't expect, your behavior here can't be said to be a reflection of a student."

As if her consciousness had returned, Camoline immediately pushed the powerful Londer away from her. Londer himself looked at Camoline as if inadmissive. He looked back with annoyance because he had been disturbed. However, the look on the face did not last long. Right after he found out, who was bothering him.

"D-dad?"

Camoline's eyes were wide open. He had not expected, to meet with the leader of the Chromos clan so soon. And in such bad circumstances.

"His cup, you still remember me, bad boy. By the way, is she your girl?" ask Ardes. Londer turned in the direction Ardes pointed at, Camoline. Before looking at his father sharply.

"It's none of your business. Now, what are you doing in this place? Isn't it, only the higher-ups of the Palace will come to the academy?" Ardes laughed softly. His long robe moved along with the vibrations his body produced. Camoline herself was stunned when she noticed the robe Ardes was wearing. He did not expect, if the robe was not removed.

"The high-ranking cloak of the white clan," Camoline said involuntarily. Londer turned to him with a surprised look. Unlike Ardes who displays a proud face.

"This time, I let you be with him. At least, that girl is smarter than my own son. Sweet girl, I didn't expect you to know this robe right away. Remembering, only the higher-ups of the Palace knew about it. Is—"

"No questions for him. We still have class." Londer pulls Camoline's hand pretty strong. He already had a bad feeling about the question his father was going to ask. Because he knows very well, how slick his father is.

"Don't mind him" said Londer. Camoline was silent. He slightly did not understand why Londer looked angry. However, what he knew was that this father and son relationship was really bad.
