My Triling System

She opened the door of Adam’s room and sat on one of the seats.

Adam was surprised to see Grace in his office and at this hour of the day. She knew she had class today but it’s not yet time for the class to end. It should at least take up to an hour to this time before it ends.

“Grace, what happened? I thought you have a spell class with the light students, why are you here all of a sudden?” Adam asked, feeling concerned.

“Why don’t you go ask that Kevin student. I’m not saying anything until he’s being dealt with. I want to see him punished right in front of me.”

“But you know I can’t punish anyone unless I know what they did wrong.” Adam said.

Grace stood up from where she was seated and walked towards Adam.

“If you’re not going to punish that student, then I’ll have no other reasons but to report you to the head of the academy council. It will be so pitiful to see you locked inside the dungeon for stealing from the academy funds.”

Adam’s eyes widened as he heard the threat from Grace. He tried so hard to keep the secret but Grace caught him and since then he has been treating her like a god. Grace was an ordinary teacher before she forced Adam to make her join the academy council.

.....

Now that she joined the council, she became so powerful that no one dared to stop her. Apart from threatening Adam for the funds he stole from the academy, she also had a way of threatening the other five council members. They all started treating her like a god because of the secret they shared between each other.

They knew if the secret gets exposed, they will be doomed.

Adam sighed.

“Okay, I’ll bring him here and punish him in front of you. Okay? Just don’t tell anyone. I promise, I’ll refund the money back.” Adam said before dashing out of his office.

“Why would I want you to refund the money. That’s the only thing I can use to keep you tamed. I’ll block every source from giving you money. You’ll eventually spend the rest of your life locked in the dungeon, crazy fellow.” Grace smirked devilishly.

Kevin had discussed the time and location with the eight girls but more and more students started coming to him, both males and females. Some of them shook his hands while most of the females just hi him and walk back to their seats. It was as if he became a celebrity all of a sudden.

Dan’s brother were seating at the back with bruised face, from the beating they suffered from Graham and his men.

They weren’t in the mood of rejoicing as they were worried about their brother and just sat at the back of the class as if they didn’t exist in this world.

Graham’s men would constantly laugh each and every time their gazes met with Reed’s and Zoe’s.

It was embarrassing but the two couldn’t leave or they’ll be punished if caught for skipping class.

Kevin could see the sad expression on the faces of the two boys, so he decided to cheer up their mood.

He walked toward the boys and sat in front of them.

“Are you okay?” He asked and the boys nodded.

“Are you sure you’re okay?” He asked again but someone else had answered.

“Of course they are not okay.” Graham said standing close to him.

“I know you have a hand in the death of Matt and my men. If I finally discover that this is true, I will make sure I see the end of you. Why? You think because you are able to cast a spell, you have arrived? That you’re stronger than all of us? If you don’t behave yourself, I’ll have you killed. And talk to your two pitiful friends to behave themselves or they’ll receive what is worst than this. Have a nice life,”Graham said as he went back to his seat.

Kevin wanted to punch Graham’s face but he was restraining himself from doing so. Graham could also see how hard Kevin was trying to stop himself from hitting him. He smirked as he realized that his words were able to provoke Kevin to anger.

Everyone were looking at the two students, thinking they would fight but there was no such thing among them. Graham returned back to his seat while Kevin went back to his seat.

All the time Graham stood talking to Kevin, Azura had left Lexa’s side as she made her way toward Kevin.

She promised to protect him anytime he’s in danger. She do not care whoever the person might be. Either a teacher or student will be dealt severely by her.

She marked Graham’s face and planned to deal with him later. Right at the moment, she had a feeling that something bad is about to happen.

Just at that moment, Adam appeared inside Kevin’s class and suddenly called for Kevin’s name.

Azura grabbed Kevin’s hand as she tried to stop him.

“Don’t go Kevin.” She said.

Kevin creased his brows as she saw the sudden change in Azura’s attitude.

“Why? What is it Azura?” He asked.

“I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen.” She replied.

“I know Azura, but I must go. Don’t worry, nothing is going to happen to me. (In a whisper); I’m a Triling.” Kevin said before freeing Azura’s grip on him and headed towards the door of the classroom.

But Azura was determined to protect Kevin at all cost, so she’s not leaving him. She would follow after Kevin no matter where he goes.

That was her job. She swore to her family to protect him.
