The World We Do Not Know 81 The Delinquents Turn - 02

He is tall and slender, black hair with purple gleam at the ends of his hair and a thunder symbol on the collar of his shirt.

"Let him be Bra.s.s, he is still a kid! Don't go mocking them in place of asking questions." A female teacher with a tattoo of a tree inside a pentagon at the side of her neck just below her ear, intervenes in the middle to reduce the unpleasant atmosphere in the room with her smiling face and dusky voice.

"That is true, but it is really strange to come across this strange incident." Another teacher with a yellow feather badge on his hat adds in.

"We can use this opportunity, see what he can do. Train him and who knows! Our school might earn a big name and the parents would be more interested in their kids going to our school." Another teacher utters.

"I don't think it's the right thing to do, to use a kid and earn a name for our school. We should leave this to princ.i.p.al to decide what to do." The one wearing a water wave shaped badge on his shoulder speaks up.

All of the teachers discussing among themselves agrees and turns towards the table in the middle of the room.

Faust, out of curiosity takes a peek from in between teachers to the old man sitting on a chair with his elbows resting on the table, he seems to be sleeping while everyone is busy discussing.

He is wearing a black suit with a red cloth wrapped around his left shoulder. *"What's the big deal of this old man?"* Faust is not impressed with the old man in the first look. He just looks like a normal old man in a suit.

"Ahem~" one of the teachers attempts an oblique way to wake him up, also not to be rude at the same time. But it is of no avail. 

"h.e.l.lo! Mr. Princ.i.p.al! It's morning, time to wake up." While everyone is thinking on how to wake up the princ.i.p.al, Faust goes beside him and tries to wakes him up by tapping on his shoulder..

"You insolent brat! What do you think you are do-" before the teacher with purple hair finishes. The princ.i.p.al wakes up suddenly in a panic!

"Ahhhh! Ahh! Where is that black dragon?did I chase it away?" Waking up from his sleep the princ.i.p.al asks everyone in the room.

"Here he goes again." The female teacher mumbles, holding her forehead.

"Mr. Princ.i.p.al it's actually about the black stone-"

"What? The black stone is missing from our school? That is only rare stone we have for our school! Gifted to me by my father. How can you guys lose something like that! This is what I get for trusting you guys with it!" The old man who just woke up stars complaining and starts crying like a little girl.

"Sir the black stone is perfectly alright!"

"Ahhhh Casey! Why didn't you said that earlier. I wasted most of my tears." His mood immediately changes from sorrow to colorful as the female teacher informs him of the stone.

"So what's the matter now? Why was I summoned?" He asks with a serious stone. His eye brows meets together as his eyes become sharp and he covers half of his face with his hand.

"This young man right here! The black stone- responded to him." The eyes of old man turns to a side to where Faust is. His stare is intense, tinted with shades of Amber.

One can see an untold story full of pain is behind those eyes.

"I can see it." The old man utters in a low voice.

"Is it his spiritual power? So he has it in him after all?" Dimitri, the teacher with a water badge asks.

"I can sense it… I can clearly see it! It's enormous!" The old princ.i.p.al adds. His. Eyes gets widen as if he is looking at a mammoth of power.

"Wh-what are you saying sir? How could we not sense anything in him?." The tension in the room increases listening to the words from the princ.i.p.al. Peter almost trembles in excitement. He is complimenting himself internally for having such a student in his cla.s.s.

Faust is intrigued with the words spoken by him. A seed of hope is planted inside his heart. He is starting to think that he too can use spiritual power now.

"Ah! Nevermind! I can't even sense any power from him." The old man cuts out his acts of serious face and says it as he gives up on acting serious.

"Huh????" Everyone in the room is electrocuted, they did know how to respond.

"Don't go around playing your jokes if you don't know what happened! If I'm not needed here, I'll leave." Faust says in disappointment, he curses himself for even hoping for the impossible.

"Ah this kid sounds too depressed." The old man gets up from his chair. "Give the black stone to him!"  Staring into the eyes of Faust, the old man smiles with admiration.

"Huh? Is-isn't it pa.s.sed down to you from your father? Weren't you just crying a moment before thinking of.the stone?"  Jack, the teacher with a hat asks curiously.

"Eh! It's of no use anyway being in school! If it responded to him, give him the stone. Oh, I just remembered some important work! I'll be on my way." the old man declares and starts walking out of the room while everyone in the room is surprised including Faust himself.

*"Is he back? Asura! Heh! Interesting days are here."* He smiles as he walks out of the room.

While walking in the corridor on his way back to cla.s.s with Peter. He tells him to collect the black stone after the awakening test.

"Mr. Peter!" A student from Faust's cla.s.s comes running from the cla.s.s. "Sir! The delinquent kid and Li Ming Jie had a fight! The delinquent kid is. .h.i.t by lightning and lots of blood is loosing.!" 

"I'm going to the infirmary to bring the bring the doctor! Please stop them." Student says while panicking and rushes downstairs.

As Faust and Peter are processing what was told to them.

"Zapp~~" 

A huge lightning resounds from the cla.s.s, the electric beams are seen from the corridor itself.

"What the h.e.l.l! On the very first day?" The teacher runs to the cla.s.s, while Faust just stands still letting out an evil smirk.
