Chapitre 14: I would like to report a person
For Celine, this dorm was her new home, following the advice of her classmates, she got ready for bed.
It didn't take long for things to change because, by the time she managed to fall asleep, she was in that strange place again.
Celine stared a second time at this clear sky, just the expanse of blue, now dark and covered with stars. Her mind was completely blank, and with the addition of a sweet melody, it was like being in heaven, her body and mind were relaxed, there were no worries, Celine sighed getting up, last time, whenever she ran or walked by some time your energies were drained, maybe that's what this place wanted? For her to stop and just stay there?
Celine looked around, she thought she would go back to where she first appeared but surprisingly she was in the place she passed out last time, in front of her was the same table, with the same cups and the same teapot, but this time, there was no one there.
Celine tried to get up, only to realize there was a lot of grass on her as if she were part of that place.
Using all her strength she untangled herself from the bush and got up completely dirty, with her brows furrowed she walked calmly to the table, sitting down and supporting her arms as she stared straight ahead.
There was nothing, like last time, she would only notice something if she got close enough for such a feat, straining her eyes a little more she continued to fix her gaze on the horizon, unable to see anything again she throws herself back in giving up, forgetting that where she was sitting was just a backless stool.
Celine fell to the grass and got up quickly, there was no one there right? She was alone...
Pretending nothing had happened, she sat down again, and it was only when she sighed in relief that a laugh was heard, it was sweet and soft, but the only thing Celine felt was a shiver. She didn't know how, but a shadow projected in front of her, distorted by the shape of the table, there was something behind her.
Celine breathed heavily as she stared into the shadow, but nothing happened. Building up courage she quickly turned her head back… there was nothing, but turning her gaze forward, the shadow was still there: Is this my shadow? Why hadn't I noticed before?
Raising her right hand, the shadow followed her, Celine smiled with a silly expression, which froze not even half a second later, the shadow smiled too…
From the shadow of the hand she held up, long claws emerged, and above the smile, two eyes opened, they were white and bright, looking at her in confusion, Celine didn't move, the shadow, noticing her fear, smiled even more openly as her eyes turned golden, giving off a murderous aura. Even closer, almost as right next to her ear the same laughter, but the more she listened the more it felt like the laughter was going crazy, until finally it stopped and everything disappeared, what she heard now was little noises, barely perceptible, sobs, the laugh was replaced by a silent cry, everything was black, but it was still there.
The air was heavy, Celine felt a strange sense of loss, and again, that tight tightness in her chest, she closed her eyes feeling dizzy, and when she opened it again, what she found was an incredibly close face, Celine was surprised, and the face next to hers was too.
Both got scared and Celine jumped up, while Harumi sat on the floor dazed with a hand on her chest – Celine, you definitely scared me.
Celine stared at her a little in disbelief, taking a deep breath she looked around quickly, not noticing when Harumi got up and touched her shoulder, again startling she moved to the side, consequently falling off the bed.
Harumi widened her eyes and ran to help her, Leila also heard the mess and came out from behind the partition running to help Celine.
– Are you okay? What happened? – Leila asked exchanging a look between the two.
– I don't know, she started to give off a weird aura, and when I got closer to look she opened her eyes, we got scared and... she was like that, kind of stunned, so when I got closer again she fell.
Leila nodded and helped Celine to sit down – Harumi, get some water – Harumi waved and left quickly.
– What happened Celine? Did you have a nightmare?
Celine stared at her, nodding after a moment – I'm sorry I made you worry.
Leila continued to stare at her, Harumi came back with a glass of water and handed it to Celine – Here, did I scare you, Celine? – She asked worriedly.
– Not at all, it was just a nightmare, I'm sorry Harumi – Celine spoke hastily after a sip.
Leila placed her hand on Harumi's shoulder, and looking at Celine, she spoke – It's almost dawn, there's not much time to sleep, how about we get ready soon, maybe we can be the first at breakfast today.
The girls nodded lightly, standing up. The three then got dressed and prepared to leave the dormitory.
Since the three were ready they went to the lobby, there was a large breakfast table there, it seemed to be early morning, some girls who approached were still yawning as they held their plates and chose the bread and cakes they would eat.
– Celine, try this one, it's very light and very tasty – Harumi said as she took a cake covered in white crumbs as if it was covered in snow.
You should also try this one – This time it was Leila who took a small roll. After getting what they would eat they went to a table and sat down to eat, Celine first ate a piece of the cake, there was a filling on it and it was very tasty, then tasting the rolled, cutting in half there was also a filling, it was chicken cream shredded, she couldn't catch it with a fork, looking at Leila, she just saw Leila taking it with a napkin and taking a bite, Celine did the same with the half that was already cut, it tasted great, the dough was thin and the ends gave off little crumbs, it was really tasty.
Enjoying her meal she started to look around, the girls seemed more animated after a few bites and were already talking happily, in the corner of the lobby she saw a girl who caught her attention, not wanting to be rude but her appearance piqued Celine's curiosity.
– Who is that girl in the corner? – Harumi looked to where Celine had said and said – That's Kirsi, from the Alhire family of Almalorantia, she likes to be alone a lot, although it looks scary she's a good person.
Celine nodded, as she had guessed 'Kirsi Alhire' daughter of the leader vampire in the Alhire family, one of only two vampire cuts in Almalorantia, her skin wasn't quite as pale as many were told vampires usually look like, her wavy black hair was pulled back in a messy ponytail, and she appeared to be sleeping standing…
– She's usually not like that, she's very serious and courteous, her looks are almost always impeccable, looks like she woke up in a tough mood today – Leila also observed the vampire's sloppy appearance with a complicated look.
– Ah – Startled, both girls turn their gaze to Harumi.
– Eat fast, they're already outside! – Even Leila ate faster when she heard this, Celine looked back through the window and saw a group a little way away under a tree, the first one she noticed there was Thamy, they were talking and seemed to wait for someone, the girls hurried her and as soon as they were done they left, walking towards the group.
– Ikuto!! – Harumi called as she walked a faster.
Celine Then suddenly realized – Ikuto?
Leila looked at her, smiling – My father's second disciple, Ikuto Waterfall, they are currently in a relationship.
Celine nodded in understanding.
– Harumi, did you sleep well? – So this was Ikuto, he was tall with medium-long brown hair, his eyes were black, and they were actually glowing as they stared at the girl next to him.
– I slept great, how about you? – Harumi asked, one of the boys behind made a disgusted expression as he looked away, the other pursed his lips also looking away.
– Oh, love is so beautiful... – Upon hearing this, one of the boys had looked away pretended to vomit, Celine watched everything with a funny expression.
Leila started to laugh while Harumi stuck out her tongue to the person who spoke, this was a young woman with red hair, Elaxi, and behind her was Aysel who also pretended to vomit.
– Okay, we can't be late for classes, Ikuto, just deliver whatever you want to deliver and let's go! – The young man with dark brown hair spoke quickly.
– I don't know why the hurry Hiro, do you have something important to do? – Aysel asked with a strange smile.
The young man stared at her – Obviously yes, we have to study, studying is important.
The blond boy next to him laughed – We don't even have many classes, you just want to leave soon because you're jealous of the love between Ikuto and Harumi.
Hiro once again faked a stunned expression –No way, let it not hit me, thank you.
They laughed, but not for long, after a small blow, Hiro covered his forehead with a wronged expression, Thamy had hit a flick pet in his head – Don't talk nonsense. Turning to Leila he asked – How are you?
Leila smiled – I'm fine Thamy, I hope you're not working too hard, I don't want you to get tired.
Thamy nodded as he flicked the back of Ikuto's head, who was already opening his mouth to answer Leila – I'm not working too hard, don't worry.
Elaxi watched from the side, and when she looked away she saw a small group leaving the reception of the men's dormitory, recognizing them she waved – Boys! You're going to be late for the first time of class, the teacher is already heading towards the classroom.
This warning was for two of them, these were Raphael and Felipe – Thank you Senior Elaxi, let's go quickly Raphael, this teacher doesn't let anyone into the classroom after him.
Felipe quickened his pace, being joined by Raphael and Matheu.
Drazhan stared at his brother leaving without even looking at him – Matheu! This isn't your first class, you don't need to be in such a hurry!
Matheu looked back and said – I know! I'll accompany them there – Turning, he ran to catch up with the other two boys who were already well ahead.
– Follow Felipe right? – Aysel asked, they both looked at her and Hiro asked – You noticed too! Matheu won't let go of this healer anymore.
Elaxi said – They probably signed a contract, healers are usually weak and need someone to protect them, nothing better than a shapeshifter for this job.
Drazhan nodded – It's not exactly good, but it's not bad either, signing a contract so early... they've only known each other for a few days...
– Three days to be exact – Nevra spoke from behind him, startling the group.
– Have you been abandoned Nevra? – Hiro said.
Nevra just looked around, his gaze once again found the brown-haired girl from the inn, following his gaze, Hiro also noticed her, it was a new face – You must be new here, would you do me the honor of knowing your name?
Celine looked at him, Aysel narrowed her eyes and answered for her – This is Celine from the Northern Kingdom, and that's all you can know.
Hiro stared at her as he thought: 'Damn, does Aysel have an eye on her already?'
– Ikuto! Do you have something for me? – Harumi asked expectantly, Ikuto smiled, Thamy handed him what he was holding, Ikuto took it and handed it to Harumi, a small box – Your lunch and... – Pausing, he reached into his pocket, taking something out and putting it in the Harumi's hand.
Harumi looked at what was in her hand and felt instantly sweet.
– What? What is it? – The others moved closer to see, and when they did, all sorts of expressions appeared.
– Ikuto…??? What a hell, you're asking for Harumi in… Ah! – Hiro looked back to see who hit him this time, to his surprise it wasn't Thamy, but Drazhan looking at him as if he was saying something wrong, Hiro closed his mouth and didn't speak anymore.
– I think it's best to leave you two alone for a while, don't be late for class – Thamy left, the others quickly followed.
– Very well, I think we better go now – Leila said while holding Celine's arm, the others nodded and were about to walk away to their respective classrooms, when someone suddenly called Elaxi, as they turned their heads, they found someone coming towards them, this person was wearing a long hat, even on a completely sunny day she was wearing gloves. Veterans recognized her easily, Elaxi smiled when she asked:
– Has something happened Kirsi? – The girl was breathing heavily, she had difficulty reaching them.
'Oh! She is that girl... But, a vampire with such a weak physique?' Celine thought, and not only she, many who had known the daughter of Lord Vampire of the Alhire family thought the same, why was she so weak?
– I would like to report a person – Everyone in the lobby froze, many people listened her, there was not a single sound after her speech.
Elaxi rubbed her hands over her face with a slightly tired expression – Okay, come with me – Waving to the others – I'm leaving, see you later.
Elaxi left as Kirsi followed closely, Aysel had an indecisive expression as she looked at the two who were quickly walking away, sighing she ran to catch up. Everyone around them began to disperse, each one going to their own class. Only a few people remained there, and one of them stared at the place where the three young women disappeared with his eyes slightly focused and narrowed, leaving a while later, he was worried for a moment: 'Has anyone noticed?' 'Probably not'
