Kapitel 158: Her Infiltration (2)
"May?!"
Inna couldn't help but scream as she scrambled to the girl's side.
She never expected that the ghost that was eating inside her room was that cowardly May who trembles at anyone that looks at her.
Inna looked at Ulima as she tried to express her shock but she ended up being more surprised instead when she saw no trace of any bewilderment in Ulima's expression. In fact, instead of bewilderment, what she saw was just exasperation and fatigue.
Did he… know this already?
How?
And whoa, she didn't notice until now that Ulima was fully healed.
Raghnall must've healed him already.
But despite that discovery, she still couldn't let go of the feeling that Ulima knew something about May being in her room.
Inna lifted an eyebrow at Ulima as she looked at him for an explanation.
"What the hell is happening? Why is May here? And why the hell was she creepily eating in the dark? And is she okay?"
Ulima sighed as he finished checking her.
It looks like May had no other complications.
"She's fine for now. She'll probably wake up after a few minutes or so. And, believe me, I had no idea that she stayed here when you were sleeping. I gave her food and thought that she would eat it quietly in the couches but never did I think that she would come up to your room."
Inna's expression softened a bit when she heard the tired tone of Ulima.
"Okay, I get it. But I thought visiting hours are over? Why is she here at…"
Inna chanted the spell to look at the time.
"Ten moments past the First hour?"
Ulima looked at May and he sighed again.
"This girl… is very stubborn. I did tell her to leave as soon as she finished eating. But she didn't want to for some reason. Told me something about her dreams. That she was supposed to be here. Now, look at what her dreams got her. She almost died."
Inna couldn't help but look at Ulima strangely as she heard a sense of endearment in his tone.
"How do you two know each other?"
Ulima's eyes widened slightly as he gazed at Inna.
"It's… it's a long story…"
Inna raised an eyebrow as she retorted.
"I've got time."
Ulima sighed. He knew he had no choice anymore.
"Don't tell anyone?"
He asked her in a tone that Inna hasn't heard from him, ever.
Inna nodded wordlessly as she urged him to explain.
"May… she's my... niece. Her mother is my half-sister. Actually, students were not allowed to have any relationship towards any member of the faculty unless they are from the Rose class but the headmaster, he… made an exception. Well, I'm grateful for him because it was such a short notice but that man still agreed to let her in."
Ulima nudged May's head affectionately as he sighed again.
"This little runt originally didn't want to enter Eldora academy. But just recently, she's been having these 'prophetic' dreams, as what she would call it, and she just suddenly wanted to enter. Her mom tried to talk her out of it and I had to explain to my sister that it's prohibited for them to enter with me being here unless she's able to reach the Rose class. But she was being so stubborn and she kept telling her mother that she needed to be there because someone might need her help one day."
Ulima's face scrunched up as he looked at his niece with playful annoyance.
"Both my sister and I were apprehensive with her joining the academy, but since this girl is so stubborn about it, I just told my sister to let her try the exams."
"Actually, May has superb magical abilities. The only problem she has is that she stutters during chanting which changes the spell altogether. And to make it worse, her stuttering becomes utterly chaotic when there are people watching her. Still, her power ranking may be low, but the number of spells she has in her pretty little mind couldn't even compare. Her memorization abilities are out of this world, especially when it comes to enhancing spells. So, the chances of passing the entrance exams were high, but the chances of being in the Rose class was inexplicably low."
"So, I thought, well maybe it'll make her give up. But nooooo, this little runt went and wrote to the Headmaster saying something about her dreams and whatnot and to validate her admission into the school. She even told her that she's willing to be in lily class just to enter the academy."
"I was so sure that the Headmaster would decline it. But the next day he called me over, which scared the living daylights out of me. He told me to tell him more about his niece and I did. Well, it became a sort of interrogation. But he told me to bring my niece for him to meet him the next day. And so, I did and well, the Headmaster gave her a task to list all the spells she knew. Now, I had no idea how he knew but our amazing Headmaster knew immediately of her talent and after seeing her list, he approved of her admission, much to my dismay."
"And so… here we are…"
After hearing his story, she still didn't know the connection of May and her being in her room. In fact, the only thing Ulima explained was how May was accepted into the Academy. So, with impatience in her tone, Inna crossed her arms as she spoke with an annoyed expression.
"And what does that have to do with her eating in MY room? She scared the heck out of me! I thought she was a ghost for crying out loud! One more second and I would've completely beaten her up!"
Ulima snorted at her remark.
Yeah, sure.
She's so totally going to beat up a ghost by hiding behind her door.
