Capítulo 5: CHAPTER 4: MYSTERIOUS YOUNGER BROTHER
THIRD PERSON POV
After 4 hours march 24 2027 5:00 pm in the afternoon.
"at last!the classes was already done!"
those voice is coming from rheyne, the uproar in the cafeteria has been going on for hours. The fact that the class zero, particularly Elyze Moriarty, a new member of the class, killed the "phoenix" and its leader, who was one of the top 15 leading groups in the academy, made the other students fear the class zero even more. ( A/N: from now on I will using class zero, instead S-class XD) but there is something that makes her frown. Despite the fact that Crystalle did not kill the leader, the rumors claimed that he had been killed by having his heart stabbed. As a result, she was left wondering, Who killed Billy Smith?
She then gave Damion del Luna a quick glance before shaking her head. He believed it couldn't be him because he had been with them the entire time, but then. She took his attention away from Zepphyr, who was casually conversing with Chauncey, and directed it to Jotaro, who was standing at the edge reading some books.
' now that you mention it, they arrived late for the fifth subject once more; is it them? At that time, there was also news of Billy Smith's passing.' She sighed deeply and chose to stay out of his line of sight, but it didn't matter to her anymore since, as much as she wanted to, she wanted to avoid engaging Zepphyr in combat because doing so would be tantamount to courting death.
Damion del Luna, on the other hand, simply kept monitoring Crystalle while surreptitiously gazing at her. She is wearing circular eyeglasses and has ash-gray hair that is curly, black eyes, and a pale skin tone. Through his observations, he has noticed that she exudes a calm, enigmatic atmosphere that makes him uneasy whenever he is around her. 'Even though she seems engaging, I can't help but feel that something isn't quite right about her. Should I test her?' Damion simply gave a self-deprecating laugh and massaged his temples after thinking those things before looking at the enormous rectangular window next to him.
suddenly, his phone rung so he just take it, he gasps when he saw a familiar name calling him, he hold his phone tightly before stare to Chauncey.
"you can go to the dorm first, I'll catch up later." When Chauncey finally understood what he meant, he led the other people. Damion first walked through the hallways before turning left to find the men's restroom, which is located in an alley next to some stairs. While this was going on, Crystalle became curious and told Devian to follow Damion with a quick glance. Devian agreed.
A huge expanse of lavish tiles and 10 cubicles are immediately visible to Damion as soon as he enters the men's restroom. He opens each of the cubicles individually to make sure no one can hear him before answering calls and speaking in a monotone to the caller.
"Auntie, what do you want?" the caller is none other than amara del luna, so she Chuckled from the line.
[I just want to ask how was the newbies? did they show any suspicious sign?] Damion simply closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and leaned against the walls to gaze upward. Damion was the one who reported all he saw from the freshmen in addition to serving as the class president of the student council and class zero. Putting Elyze, Devian, Zepphyr, and Jotaro in Class Zero, is a merely a test to see if someone is a traitor or not. Without the students' knowledge, the headmistress administers a test to all newcomers who wish to enroll in the academy. She then places them all in class zero on their first day, permits them to move into their villa, and makes her decision about whether or not they are suitable for class zero after a week. nevertheless.. The majority of newcomers lose up easy and don't continue for more than two days.. and most of them are dying.
"there's nothing suspicious about them except for the fact that the students named elyze moriarty is a very skilled woman, she manage to kill 8 phoenix member in one swoop of her dagger, while on the other hand, her fiancée, devian xenon, there's nothing to write about him. regarding to the death of billy smith, it was zepphyr fuentavila itself who killed him secretly."
at the outside of men's rest room, devian just gasps when he heard damion's report. 'it appears that it was zepphyr fuentavila all along.. what a hypocrite.' he thought while smiling as he keeps listening to their conversation.
[.. I see, the newbies seems interesting this year, don't you think..?]
"if that's what you want to say.."
[haha, becareful to them, they might surpassed you one day if you let your guard down.]
As soon as he heard his aunt's warning, Damion simply adjusted the bridge of his glasses. After a brief period of silence, he continued. In the meantime, Devian's eyes just widened and his lips curled up as he felt the dark aura he was emitting. He giggled a little.
"Just who do you think of me? although the academy is not yet in my hands, I have the most influence here. the current 'rank 1' of supreme 10 is still in the midst of his adventure, and there are still two months before the 'scarlet competition' will be held, so I can use the time left to spread my influence. if the newcomer dares to threaten "my" throne, then we will engage in a "political war" involving the seats of Supreme 10."
As soon as Devian heard those words, he couldn't help but smirk before leaving in front of the men's restroom. He held his chin and was about to walk past at the alley where the restroom is located when he noticed Chauncey leaning against the white walls, playing with daggers by throwing one above and catching it. He then turned to Devian and smiled sweetly while his gold eyes gleamed at him.
Even though he's grinning broadly, there's a threat lurking beneath it, "Eavesdropping is bad, Devian! There are some secrets that you might know that are worth of someone's life! Do you get what I mean? " Rather than being alarmed, he calmly kept his composure and said casually to him.
"Oh, sorry about that! My curiosity couldn't help it so.. please don't tell this to your mast—I mean, to Damion." There's a hint of sarcasm in devian's word that causes Chauncey's smile to twitch in irritation. He then puts his hands in his pocket and walks back in the direction of Crystalle. While giving him a thoughtful glance, Chauncey, on the other hand, simply observes his back.
"That guy.. just what the hell is wrong with him?"
-♥-
The dormitory's main entrance is connected to a small pavilion on the side of the building, and the entire structure is surrounded by big trees because it is in the middle of a forest. A crescent moon is also visible in the night sky. When they arrive at the dormitory's gate, a large modern mansion with many windows and a lovely garden exposes itself to them. The opulent tile hallways greet you as you enter through the front door. The hallway continues into a broad, modern round split staircase with glass barricades that was connected from the second floor.
The living room is located on the east side of the first floor and has a theme of light and gold. The couches and other furnishings are modern and opulently designed, and the kitchen and bathroom are located on the west side of the first floor. The pool is situated just by the back entrance.
Nine rooms make up the second level, with four on the left side, four on the right, and one at the end. Every room has a private bathroom that is connected to the master bedrooms. The third floor connects to another contemporary split staircase that features a wide central shelf with trophy displays and an opulent chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
As you ascend to the third floor, there are two rooms in total. The library is the one on the left. As you enter, you will discover dozens of bookshelves lining up in a straight line, with a towering window in the middle. Next to the big window is a bronze-mottled table with fifteen chairs.
The second door, which leads to the game area, is on the right side. When you first walk in, you'll see a large room with a bar counter at the edge and dim lighting. There are also couches, bean bags, bubble seats, and other furniture where you can see the garden. A bowling alley and a mini golf course are next to the cantilever stairs, and on the first floor are mini basketball courts, billiard tables, a ping-pong table, dartboards, and arcades. There is also a small table for board games and a shuffleboard table. the ceiling's lights even change from blue to green to red to yellow, adding to the fun atmosphere of the room.
going back to crystalle, She lets out a small gasp as she realizes how luxurious the class zero dorms 'this is above my expectation' she thinks while still glancing around. The moment crystalle had an idea, she asked Damion, who was sitting on the couches with Rheyne and Rohan. Damion had just taken off his blazer and placed it on the coat rack next to the front door.
"now that you mention it, who cook our food?" damion just give him a plain smile.
"it was chauncey, but sometimes, it's alexandra or me."
Crystalle just nods; she already has a hunch that it was them. Since this is an independent school, there are no servants or butlers who can assist them; they were on their own. He didn't expect anything from the twins either, especially not from Rohan who can't even make eggs or hotdogs. When Rohan once attempted to cook, their entire estate nearly turned to dust as a result of him. His mother forbade him from entering the kitchen ever again after that.
"don't worry! he may not look like it but Chauncey's cooking skills is a top-tier!" this time it was Alexandra who praise him. so chauncey just give her a smug look.
"heh, once you taste one of my cooking skills! you'll going to beg me to give you more!" When Devian heard it, he couldn't help but secretly mock Chauncey by masking it with his kind words and smiles. Crystalle's lips only twitch, contemplating the arrogance that Chauncey was attempting to show off.
"If that's the case, then I would love to see it for myself."
In the meantime, Crystalle simply sighed and pretended not to hear anything. She then glanced at the stairs before beginning to climb them. After looking around for a while, she returned to his I.D. pass and touched the screen as a blue hologram tab floated, where she saw her information, including her photo and points as well as a pie-chart-like chart showing all of her skills.
In a time when cutting-edge physics and technologies form the bedrock of the universe. For Crystalle, this was already typical. Because every time she goes outside, she sees trains floating in the sky, cars flying around, hoverboards floating and used as the main mode of transportation for students going to school, AI robots being referred to as "servants," and various advanced devices that people are using in their daily lives, but, The high technologies that eventually formed the world's main foundation themselves were a testament to the fact that although the world is changing, people aren't, and this is true even today.
"let's see.. the room 8, where could it be..?"
"third door from the left side, that's where your room is."
Crystalle nearly jumped out of his skin in terror and almost grabbed the person who spoke to him from behind, but he calmly turned to look back and saw rohan, who had short purple hair and a poker face. Rohan was tapping away on his phone and he dared not look directly into Crystalle's eyes. 'dang.. She grumbles to herself, 'He and his habit of appearing out of nowhere.'
"I know.. you don't need to point it."
".. I'm just reminding you that there are some things you should sometimes keep private. If you get lost and end up discovering someone's secret, whether accidentally or on purpose, everything is equivalent to death."
with that, crystalle just chuckled to rohan and stare at him using his peripheral vision, "Oh I love secrets so much! can you perhaps tell me something?"
When Rohan realized that it had no effect on her at all, he merely winced; nevertheless, shortly after, he simply sighed and grinned in a way that made you shiver. "hmm.. there is a secret laboratory under the bookshelves in Damion del Luna's room where he typically does human experiments and dissects animals."
Crystalle is halted in his tracks by the sight of rohan standing in the shadows with his hands in his pockets and a blank expression on his face. she decides to smile at rohan in order to disguise her irritation with him.
"that's quite a secret you know.. then do you want to know some of my secrets too?"
rohan stare to him silently, but soon after he just nod plainly to her cousin.
"what is it, then?"
"This academy.. will be doomed to fall soon."
When Crystalle said those words, Rohan gasped because he hadn't anticipated her to respond in that way. As she reached for her room, she used her I.D. pass to open the door before unlocking it once more. Crystalle gives rohan another smile, her words tinged with cynicism.
"thank you for leading me on my room."
".. yeah, no problem."
-♥-
Since it is past bedtime and there is a curfew once 10:00 pm has passed, the entire academy was enveloped in silence in the midst of the night beneath the pale and silent sky. Many students were afraid to go outside for fear that they would be seen by the president of the students council, who would have to look around. after all, If he caught a student wandering outside, that student would undoubtedly meet an unfortunate end.
Damion left the dormitory as soon as he had made sure that everyone was already residing in their own room. However, just as he was about to enter the campus, he felt that someone was staring at him, so he turned around and peered down from the second floor. When Damion realized it was Crystalle, he couldn't help but scowl at the expression she was giving him while standing in front of the balcony wearing a red lace nightgown with long, ash-gray wavy hair that reached her waist and carrying a glass of wine. Soon after, Crystalle simply bowed her head slightly and said, "Goodnight," before returning to her room, closing the balcony, the curtain, and the lamp. Damion felt perplexed once more.
"why is she staring at me earlier..? and the way she dress up.. does she even know that she's Infront of a man?" Damion teased her inwardly as he massaged her temple. He admits to himself that he didn't anticipate Crystalle to be that attractive. He almost misunderstood what Crystalle was trying to convey when she bid him goodnight, thinking that she was seducing him. However, those thoughts were quickly dispelled when he realized that she already had a fiancé.
However, he simply decides to keep moving and began to walk toward the campus and any other dorms. He hasn't yet observed any students pacing around in fear of being killed or punished. Damion knew it would happen, but he nevertheless checked around because it was his obligation to do so. He is the kind of person that is so committed to his job that if something doesn't go according to plan, he would be beyond upset.
After checking for 30 minutes, he made the decision to return to their dorm to complete the remaining paperwork in his capacity as president of the student council. Then again, as soon as he heard the sounds of the violin playing, he suddenly froze, unable to move or talk. While most people would probably consider the violin piece to be quite tranquil and melancholy, damion saw it as a threat.
" the requiem in D minor, K. 626..could it be..?"
He turned to look at the modern pavilion and noticed a young child standing in the middle of it, smiling and holding a violin. Even though the young boy's smile is as bright as the sun, his presence is the opposite, to the point that you almost vomit because of the amount of pressure you feel coming from him, and Damion is the same. This boy has silver long hair that is similar to a silk thread, pale white skin, perfect jaws, pinkish lips, a pointed nose, white long eyelashes, and pair of golden eyes that give you a chill and coldness enough to freeze you on where you sat. damion can't even speak, neither can move as well because of the pressure.
on the other hand, inside of the class zero dormitory, devian was about to lie on the bed when he stop as soon as he heard a familiar sound of violin playing from the outside, he couldn't help but to felt shiver down to his spine when he realizes who could that be.
"this piece, this song, this bloodlust and this presence.. I know this very well, fuck.. Don't tell me-?!" He made an effort to collect himself before deciding to leave his room in search of the enigmatic violinist. Not because he finds it appealing, but rather to make sure the identity of the unknown person is distinct from the person he was just thinking about. because it shouldn't be appropriate for that individual to exist in this planet!
back to damion, when the young boy stare to his direction, he stop playing, leaps in front of damion, and approaches his face with a beaming smile, as if he were stuck in the middle of an abyss with no way out.
"ah~ It's been Awhile Mr. president! how was the Class zero?! I heard from headmistress that there's a newcomer in our class!"
"..." damion remained silent, he bit his lips secretly while trying to keep his expressionless face Infront of him.. 'shit, why did this guy go back here so early..? auntie didn't inform me about this!' Damion felt uneasy just by looking at the young boy's sunny disposition; although on the outside, he may appear harmless, he is actually quite troublesome on the inside. He pondered what kind of excuse he would give. Even Damion Amadeus del Luna himself was frightened by this beast!
"..there is, however, they were already sleeping, you can meet them tomorrow in class."
the young boy just give him an 'oh' reply before smile sweetly to damion again, "I heard the two newcomers name.. zepphyr fuentavila and jotaro miller, isn't it? are they.. strong?"
When the young boy mentioned their names, there was a hint of amusement on his lips. Damion simply responded politely despite the fact that he didn't understand why he asked their names; either he was curious about them or he intends to make them his next victim.
"I guess so.. the newcomers these year are very skilled."
"really?! what about the other two then?!"
"the two.. I don't know yet, they are too mysterious, however, one thing I can say is that, they are dangerous and cannot be underestimated."
"hmm.. what are their names? tell me so I can test them!"
"it was elyze moriarty and.." When Damion realized what was happening, his eyes slowly widened and he began to tremble. He stared at the young boy with the bright smile, trying to process everything, but soon his mouth closed and he became frozen in place. He began to quiver, so he put his shaking hands behind his back and fixed his gaze on the young boy's lovely face and set of golden eyes. 'don't tell me..?' As he prepared to speak, he noticed the little boy's surprised expression. Damion followed the young boy's gaze and gasped when he saw the man in casual clothing, his long black hair loosely pulled back, standing in front of the pavilion and staring at the young boy's as well.
"Devian.. what are you still doing outside in the middle of the night—!!!" Damion's eyes opened wide when he heard the sound of the rapier being drawn from its sheath; there, he saw the young boy leap over the sky and attack Devian with full force; Devian had only just returned from reality when he saw the young boy rushing toward him, so he had only stepped back to avoid his attack. Damion was in shock at what he was seeing; to think that Devian would be this equal to the boy, he felt an inferiority thinking that devian would be par to the supreme 1 of P.N. Academy!
Devian simply ran to the side as quickly as he could before hurling a dagger at the mysterious boy. However, the boy managed to avoid it when Devian suddenly moved his finger, causing the dagger to go back and attack him from behind. The boy gasped but managed to block it this time using his rapier, where he saw a string that was attached to the dagger, allowing Devian to control it so well as much as he wanted to.
The boy managed to avoid it by swerving to the side, somersaulting, and attacking Devian with the rapier from above. Then, he dashed towards the mysterious boy, pulled out his gun, and shot him. Devian, on the other hand, uses his gun to defend himself from the onslaught, but he gasps when the gun splits in half, saying to his mind, 'Not good!' When he realized the rapier was about to pierce his heart, he quickly pulled the sheathe from the boy's flank and fell before resuming his attack. The corner of his mouth twitched as he noticed the mysterious boy smiling joyfully at him.
Damion, on the other hand, is simply standing in front of the pavilion while observing the altercation between Devian and the young boy. He still finds it hard to believe that both of them were equal to one another, and neither of them wants to give up; their altercation lasted for almost 30 minutes. When he attempted to intervene, however, just as he was about to do so, the sound of a shotgun rifle once again engulfed the entire dormitory, devian looked coldly in that direction when they spotted Chauncey carrying a shotgun, dressed in a sleeping robe, yawning to them, and standing on the balcony. When Devian and the unknown lad realized that the bullet was headed their way, they both stepped back and distanced themselves from one another.
"That's enough! It's fuckin' 11:30 in the evening for pete sake, everyone is already sleeping! if you want to fight then do it on the arena when the competition came!"
damion let out a sighed feeling thankful to chauncey, the young boy and devian glace to each other seriously as if like there's a striking bolt forming between them.
"It was this guy who started everything.. I didn't even know him from the start!"
"ha! nonsense.. you don't even know your own little brother?! how far did you fall.. Devian Laxius Xenon?!"
and now damion have ensured it.. they are indeed related to each other, plus.. they are siblings from the start!
the uneasiness feelings that he feels towards devian when they first met..
the familiar bloodlust..
and the way how they fight are completely similar to each other..
he already answer those questions!
Keir Ismael Xenon, the supreme one of P.N academy, was devian's little brother!
