"That was scary," Elina said.

"Even though I had some idea, I never knew that human nature could be so dark and they are all the same age as we are," Emma shook her head. Her face was filled with disappointment. Her perception of humanity had changed and it cause her to mature greatly.

"Let's go on and talk to the selected candidates,"

"Hey, wait for now. It's still the middle of the night, let's sleep for now and do all that in the morning," Elina interjected and stopped Emma.

"Oh, yeah," Emma replied in realization and walked back to the room assigned to both of them. As she walked, she did so a bit absent-mindedly, her mind still wandering back to the dreams and thoughts she saw of everyone. Even the people they selected weren't perfected. Their minds were also dark but their nature wasn't inclined to kill. That's why they compromised and selected them.

"I guess everyone is like that," She thought and entered her room.

"Swoosh," The door opened as the wind whistled. Her hand was still on the doorknob as suddenly appeared a few meters behind.

Her shoulder was grazed and blood dripped from the cut. She looked up and saw nothing but the window open with the wind blowing inside. The curtains waved in the air as an eerie atmosphere was established.

"What happened?" Elina walked up to her and asked.

"Blood…" Emma muttered and turned around.

"Blood?" Elina asked in confusion, not knowing what Emma was talking about. That was until she saw the festering wound on her shoulder as dark blood dripped down her shoulder.

"Let's go," Elina's eyes darkened as her expression turned cold. Darkness surged around her as an eerie air formed around her.

Elina was truly angry, and that caused her power to get out of control. The shadow of a devil formed behind her as darkness crept over her skin.

Her eyes turned black as claws extended out from her nails. Her teeth grew and turned sharper as a cloud of darkness spread in the surroundings.

"Elina… Hel..help," Emma stammered as she fell to the ground.

Elina got back to her senses as she saw Emma fall, the darkness around her lessened but it still remained. Her anger hadn't calmed down and she just regained a small part of rationality.

Swooping Emma in her arms, Elina disappeared into the darkness and appeared right outside Ray's door.

"Ray, come out," She screamed at the top of her lungs, not caring about disturbing his sleep. For her, Emma was more important than anything.

"Huh? What happened Elina? Why are you shouting? And why is Emma in your arms?" He opened the door and asked, still half asleep as he rubbed his eyes and looked closely.

As he did, he saw the dark festering on Emma's shoulder and noticed that she was rather pale. He understood the situation immediately as arcs of lightning surged within him.

"Who did this?" He asked in anger. Before being a team member, Emma was the sister of his dear friend and seeing something happen to her, he took it upon himself to get to the root of the problem because Emma wasn't only Sirius's sister, he took her as his sister as well.

"I don't know. Something flashed and she shrieked. I was just behind her but all I saw was wind and then she fainted," Elina recalled the whole event. Her voice was rather coarse as her anger hadn't been subsidized yet. She was holding onto herself so as not to lose her rationality and go on a rampage.

"Okay, take her to the head nurse. She will be able to help us," Ray directed as he turned around, only to see Aella standing behind him her hair floating in the air. A graceful aura surrounded her as silver light shone in her eyes.

"Aella, calm down. She will be fine," Ray tried to calm her down as he stepped forward and hugged her. He kissed her passionately as Aella lost her anger in his warm embrace.

Seeing that she had calmed down, he told her to go and inform the others but in a rather subtle way so as not to freak everyone out. Then, he turned into lightning as he followed behind Elina.

In another corner of the infirmary. A man clad in dark sat on the ground as he huffed lightly. His abdomen had a slight wound as a blueish aura converged over it.

"That fucking a*shole. She attacked me without caring for her safety. Thankfully it isn't too deep and rather shallow or else it would have been a problem," The man thought as he pulled out an ointment from his spatial storage and rubbed it over his wound before bandaging it.

He covered the wound with his shirt and stood up. Moving his body a bit, he felt rather satisfied and disappeared into the surroundings, the wind whistled as he did.

In the head nurse's office,

As a celestial, the head nurse didn't need much sleep as she had broken the boundaries of humankind. Right now, she was deeply immersed in meditating as she sensed her strength better and tried to improve herself. Having been inspired by Ray's method of meditation, she tried to melt it down into her method. This way, she was trying to find the perfect balance between both methods.

"Knock... knock,"

Her eyes snapped open as she glanced at the door and stood up. Her eyes had a swirling nova in them as a burst of energy surrounded her palm. She was rather cautious and was ready to take it down if it was an enemy knocking at her door at such a time.

After all, who would be at her door at such a time? If it was a student, they would be sensible enough to wait till the morning as that would be the best time to ask her for anything. Though there was a possibility of an emergency situation, she still thought to be cautious.

Opening the door, she saw Elina with Emma lying in her arms. Seeing this, she put down her hands and canceled the attack. She turned to look at Emma and the wound on her shoulder.

Her hands glowed a silvery light as the celestial energy was used as a scan as it traveled through Emma's body and checked the damage and type of wound.

"Place her on the table right there," She spoke, pointing at the rather obscure examination table at the center of her room.

"Okay," Elina nodded and ran to the table, and placed Emma down.

"What happened to her?" Asked the head nurse.

"I don't know much. She was attacked out of nowhere," Replied Elina.

"Hmm…" the head nurse rubbed her temples in contemplation as she said, "It's an assassination attempt, but who did it? Is someone foolish enough to anger the dean? They must know that she is Ray's teammate and that Ray values his teammates a lot," She asked out loud.

Then, leaving the matter. She turned to the patient on the table. She examined Emma's wounds with more depth as her eyes lit up in realization.

Turning to the rows of medicinal ingredients next to the table, she took a mortar and pestle and pulled out some greenish-red leaves and a few more herbal ingredients. Mashing the ingredients together, she made them into a paste and poured it out into a small container.

"Lift her up," She directed Elina.

Elina did as told and pushed her up as the head nurse poured the paste down her throat. As for what was left, she applied it to the wound.

"This will ease the festering and stop the wound from spreading," The head nurse spoke as she then turned around.

Walking to a shelf full of books, she pulled a thick book out and flipped its pages till she reached a page with an obscure symbol in its middle. The symbol was basically a seven-cornered star with various cryptic words embedded within it.

She read the page and symbol as realization hit her. Her eyes widened slightly as her hands trembled. She turned back to look at Elina and asked,

"Did you see anything when she attacked?"

"Nothing. Just wind," Elina replied back nervously. By now, her anger had pretty much subsided as she was more worried about Emma's situation and the thought of finding the culprit was now at the back of her head.

"Okay, I see," The head nurse muttered and lifted her hands. She pointed towards Emma and motioned Elina to take a side.

Elina complied as right after she moved, the head nurse's hands lit up with energy as a bean shot out. The beam spread in the air as an energy bubble was formed and surrounded Emma.

"What are you doing," Elina asked, a bit confused over what the head nurse intended to do.

"Well, she is cursed but that's not all. There is something else too, well I have to ask. You are also attuned very well to curses. So you might have noticed something strange about her. Didn't you?" Asked the head nurse. Her voice was full of suspicion as she did.

"No, I didn't. I didn't sense anything," Elina replied and then turned to Emma. She lifted her hands and asked assistance from the devil in her consciousness as her body changed.

That was when she discovered something. Her eyes widened in shock as,

"Blerghhh" She vomited blood and fell to the ground with her face pale. She turned to the head nurse and weakly spoke,

"Call everyone. We have an ancient demon on the loose,"
