Chapter 26 - Caught Red Handed!

Aziel's two masters were discussing about his behavior recently.

"Drako, Aziel is having emotional crisis right now, and I don't know why. When push comes to shove, I don't think my power is sufficient enough to contain it. I want you to go there, pretend like you're a student, and watch over Aziel. We can't let him get consumed by his emotions."

"Understood Milady. I will make some preparations first."

"Be quick at it and go directly to the capital after."

"Yes."

Drako gathered all necessary items to get enrolled in the Academy, immediately flew out of the barrier.

Back to the dorm.

Aziel went inside their room after gathering all the petals. He noticed that the petals were emitting the same ominous aura.

Aziel sat in his bed, focusing his energy, he tries to trace the aura, but couldn't trace where it came from no matter how hard he tried.

Having no other options, Aziel memorized the ominous energy left in the petals.

"Sooner or later we'll be seeing each other again, and you'll pay for what you did today."

"Who's paying for what?"

Rocky woke up and find it much easier to move after resting. At the same time, Jake finished his cleaning duty and went back inside their room.

"You are going to pay for my service dude. I cleaned your mess down the hallway! Now, I'm taking a bath to clean myself as well. You clean the room, and wash your bedsheets! The room's beginning to smell."

"Damn it! Whose idea is it to bring me here and lay me in my bed?"

Rocky smacked Aziel's head without second thought.

"Jake! Get the fuck out of the restroom! I will pay you back for your service!"

Rocky kicks the bathroom door and give Jake a smack in his head. For the second time this morning, Jake's privacy has been violated.

"Why would you come inside when I can get the fuck out later!? You could have just waited outside you idiot!"

The two of them were squaring up inside the bathroom. And when they got out, their faces were all bruises, cuts, and body pains.

Jake kicks Rocky back into the bathroom.

"You take a bath because you smells like shit!"

"You bet!"

Aziel just sighed his frustrations with his friends.

"Woah! What was that? You seems so stress Aziel my friend, that you forgot all this frustrations was because of you! Why don't you explain what's happening right now!"

"No! I need to hear that, wait a little bit, I am almost done."

"Whatever man. Hurry up!"

Jake changed his clothes while Rocky was in the bathroom. A few moments later, Rocky went outside the bathroom and get changed.

"Now. We're all set, you can start now."

"You had the audacity to smile when everyone was waiting for you!"

Jake smacks Rocky's head.

They were about to start round two when Aziel signals them to sit.

"That was so uncalled for, dude!"

"Whatever man. Violating my privacy was also uncalled for."

"My privacy was also violated just so you know, Jake!"

"Yeah, but it wasn't me!"

The two look Aziel dead in his eyes, as if hungry beasts were about to hunt him.

"Alright! Chill out guys!"

Aziel raised his hands conveying his submission.

"Last night, there's someone came inside the room."

"What!?"

Rocky and Jake exclaimed simultaneously.

"And you didn't even bother waking us up!?"

"Yeah. And how is that connected to the most embarrassing day of my life!?"

"Damn! I'm with you on that one brother."

Aziel's two companions high fived each other.

"Could you please let me finish my explanation!? Stop cutting me in the middle of my story."

"What is it then? Story or explanation?"

"Both!"

Aziel raised his voice in irritation, and the other two shut their mouth.

"So, there's someone who broke into the room last night. I didn't bother knowing who it was because of two reasons. One, the person doesn't seem to have an ill intentions since he just laid in the bed beside me. I thought he was the fourth student who occupy this room. And two, I am tired."

"If you're saying is true, where is he now? And you still didn't explain how is it connected to us?"

"Alright, earlier when I wake up. You two seem agitated, and I didn't really give it a thought. Until I saw Jake looking pale and sick. And when I start investigating, I found this."

Aziel hands over to his friends the compressed blue rose petals, still emitting faint ominous energy.

"I found these petals all around the room, inside the bathroom, and in the surroundings of the public restroom. I can sense poison magic embedded to this petals, and it was the reason why you both couldn't control you bowels."

Rocky and Jake gasped in shock to learn this.

"So how are you fine when we practically breathe the same air?"

"He's right. And when we were in the bathroom and you turn all white, what was that? Dude, I thought you only had fire and earth magic."

Jake spoke out loud that it made Aziel jerked a bit.

"Huh? Ha! Hahaha. Uhh, that's nothing, maybe the reflection of the sun or something shines on me. I don't know what you were saying dude."

"No. I can see where he's going. I also had the same question Aziel, I mean, how can you do healing magic? And base on Jake's question, it seem you had fire magic as well. And also when you were fighting against Liam, you also produces white energy or something. Like dude, are you even human?"

Rocky counts all the powers that Aziel uses since the first time they met.

"Dude, you got healing, fire, earth, and light. Four magic powers! How is that even possible?

"At this point on, I won't be surprise anymore if you still had more in stock."

Aziel was caught by his friends, so he had to improvise.

 "I had more, but I want to teach it unto you both. However, I want to know what are you powers first so I can decide what powers to teach you."
