Chapter 168 Calling Upon The Will Of The World
"What happened?" A female student asked.
"Dean\'s orders. Even we don\'t know what is happening," one of the hooded figures spoke, "Please clear this area," the hooded figure repeated and then disappeared.
It was the same for all of the hooded figures in the area. They personally went to each person present over there and asked them kindly to leave the place. Within a few seconds, the area was almost cleared with only a few people left who were in the process of leaving the place.
"What happened to him," the dean approached Ray and asked. Squatting down, he checked Ray\'s pulse. Only to notice that it was normal, "his pulse is fine while breathing is also constant. Then what\'s wrong?" The dean turned to the head nurse and asked.
"Well, I diagnosed him and…" the head nurse started to explain but just as she did,
"The head nurse here said that she couldn\'t guarantee that Ray would be healed fully. She says that it\'s a very \'complicated\' procedure," Aliya spoke. Interrupting the head nurse, her sarcastic remarks hit the nail as they drilled right through the head nurse\'s heart.
Leaving her in furry, Aliya further emphasized the word complicated as she made a show out of the head nurse\'s incompetence.
"Is she correct?" The dean\'s expression darkened. Standing to his feet, the dean stared into the head nurse\'s eyes as he spoke, "Tell me! What is she speaking of?" As he asked, an unimaginable amount of anger reflected in his eyes.
"But.."
"No buts! Come clear this moment," the dean\'s voice soared as he shouted at the top of his lungs. His anger was finally unleashed as the wind around him stirred. The clouds thundered as a dark outcast covered the whole academy.
"Okay, I will tell," the head nurse muttered, scared of the dean\'s anger; she started speaking.
"In short, you haven\'t seen something like this in your career. Well, let me remind you that you have been working for almost a hundred years now and you not finding the treatment for this kid is nothing but a shame," the dean spoke in spite.
Lifting his hand, he made Ray float in the air as he carried Ray with him, "follow me to my office," the dean said and continued walking.
The head nurse and everyone else followed the dean to his office. While walking, the head nurse had tears welling up in her eyes as she couldn\'t handle everything that was happening right now, especially the insult to her career just now.
However, she withheld everything as deep within she knew, that it wasn\'t the dean who was wrong but it was her incompetence that had led her to this point. After all, the dean was right, she was one of the very few people in the Calamity Realm and for her to heal a kid in the Mortal Realm was nothing but her own failure.
Hence, taking the dean\'s words as motivation; she steeled her resolve to get better and improve her skills to the point that she could heal anyone even if they had an incurable illness that even the heavens couldn\'t cure.
Just as she made her resolve, lightning thundered as the skies lit up. "An oath against the heavens has been made. For that one must suffer the punishment from the heavens," A godly voice spoke as the skies trembled from its pressure.
"How dare you," The dean turned around as he spoke. His eyes were as red as blood. A scythe appeared in his hand as he unleashed his full strength.
"Get out of here," he shouted and then flew in the air, "Old Demon," he called out and added, "Take them to my office and activate the arrays. I will see to these fake Gods. How dare they observe this planet," the dean spoke as he flew higher.
"Prometheus! You have no right to interfere with the heavens and the decision of Gods," the heavens spoke as the sky lit up and a bolt of lightning descended as it made its way for the dean.
"How dare you," the dean shouted again and swung his scythe. Swinging at the bolt of lightning he deflected it and continued gaining altitude.
"Arghh" an angry groan sounded as the sky rumbled. A network of lightning bolts thundering in the sky saw they descended onto the dean.
"Thunder…Boom" Hitting the dean, they made a loud explosion as a flash of light blinded everything.
Listening to the commotion happening outside the Academy, people started to head out as they gazed at the lone figure floating in the sky as he faced against thusly itself.
"Isn\'t that the dean?" A perceptive pointed his finger and said.
"Yeah, that does look like the dean," another student near him spoke as slowly then news spread that the dean was in the air fighting against the whole sky.
Within a few minutes, the news reached Amanda\'s ears as she sped out of her office and ran outside.
Standing amidst the cluster of students, she gazed at the sky as she saw her beloved get hit by multiple lightning bolts.
"No!!" She shouted all of a sudden. Her emotions got out of control as she released an unimaginable amount of power. With a massive surge in her power, she flew into the air.
"Prometheus! Are you okay?" She approached the dean and asked, worry written all over her face, she flew closer to the dean.
"Yes, I am all fine. This is nothing to me," the sky cleared as the dean spoke, "Don\'t come any closer. It\'s my fight and I will fight it to the end. Use make sure everyone at the academy is safe," holding his hand out in the air, a crystal appeared as the dean infused Astral Energy into it.
The crystal glowed an eerie light as it expanded and then, covered the dean. Covering the dean\'s whole body, the crystal turned into armor that protected each inch of the dean\'s body.
Amanda nodded as she descended and spread her arms. Then, using her special ability she called out to the world itself as she spoke,
"O\' mother of all. Protect these children of yours\' and protect the one who is fighting for you. Protect.. and make your presence known and show the other worlds that you are still here," As Amanda spoke those words, a strange scene occurred as a hum sounded in the air. A light breeze blew in all directions as the sun shone on Amanda, making her seem like the only one present in the whole world.
Her presence turned ethereal as whitish armor covered her whole body. Wings popped out of her back while the world itself resonated with her.
Then, everything calmed down for a second as a warm motherly voice sounded throughout the campus,
"Don\'t worry child. The Spirit Of The World supports all those who work in the way of saving it," just as the voice receded, a greenish hue covered the dean as it buffed up his defense and regenerative abilities.
Not only that but the same greenish hue covered Ray as slowly Ray\'s fingers twitched.
Within Ray\'s consciousness,
Mag\'ladroth appeared as he spoke,
"Wake up kid, the time has come. Go forth and show your strength. Show that with you around no one can step on this world," As Mag\'ladroth spoke that, he gently blew onto Ray and transferred a small bit of life force onto him.
Besides Mag\'ladroth was a multi-colored wisp that hovered around in the air,
"Are you sure he will be fine? Isn\'t your life force, even if it\'s a sliver; going to overwhelm him?" The multicolored wisp asked.
"I know you care for your host but don\'t worry. Currently, he has the support of the will of the world. Hence, my life force would only strengthen him," Mag\'ladroth spoke.
As for the-wisp, it went up and down to show that it nodded with the Void Dragon. The vision disappeared as Ray\'s eyelids twitched.
"Ughh…" Ray groaned lightly. With his internal wounds healing nonstop, Ray\'s condition improved dramatically.
Seeing his body make some movement, Aella ran to his side and cupped his face, and spoke, "Ray! Wake up! For me please, wake up!" She spoke from the depth of her heart.
"Aella?" Ray muttered in his sleep as slowly his eyes opened. His blurry vision slowly cleared as he saw Aella\'s face in front of him, looking at him in worry.
As she saw his eyes open up, tears streamed down her eyes as she bent lower and kissed him. "What?" Noah, who had been observing the whole moment blurted as he thought, "And he gets the hot one,"
Meanwhile, Ray himself was in shock. As the felt her supple lips connect with his, the softness of her lips and their sweet taste. It all made Ray get lost in euphoria as for the first time in his life, Ray was kissed by a woman other than his mother,
Tears streamed down his face as he felt his heart palpate at her kiss. Aella lifted her head as she saw tears streaming down Ray\'s face.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Nothing. I am here," Ray shook his head slightly and spoke. His voice was barely a whisper but Aellla heard it clearly. Smiling she bent down to his ear and spoke,
"Now wake up my hero and save everyone. Your time has come," saying that, she smiled and gave him a peck on his cheeks.
"Listening to her, Ray\'s eyes snapped open as Mag\'ladroth\'s words resounded in his mind.
"I will do everything in my power to protect my loved ones," he muttered as he lifted himself up.
