"So, how are you?! Everyone, welcome to Arcana Academy!" A man entered the room, shouted; that startled everyone.

 

Kyungsoo found himself in one of the rooms in the House of Neutralis, again, with the transfer students. The students are scattered everywhere in the room. Making small groups; some girls are gossiping about the hot boys next to their room. Some of the boys, are talking about the newest video games. Some are trying to ease their boredom.

 

 

Kyungsoo had his head on his arms; was about to take a nap on top of his arm chair. Not giving any attention around him. Not caring about a thing in the world.

Youngjae just sat behind him. Queitly observing everyone. Choosing not be noticed.

 

He lifted his head and placed his elbow on top of the table. He lazily blinked his eyes. Kyungsoo felt so sleepy and the afternoon breeze isn't helping him at all.

He rested his chin on his knuckles and tried to listen to the man. Note, he tried.

 

The other students in the room, move like rats to find some seats, stupidly bumping to each other, rushing to occupy seats; so afraid to be called out by the teacher. When they are all settled. The man, smiled so big at them.

"Why is he so happy?" Kyungsoo thought.

 

"All right people. I am Mr. Lee Donghae. And again welcome." He put his hands on his chest. Acting so dramatically before the students. The girls in the room giggled while the boys playfully snickered at the man.

He walked slowly in the aisle, looking at everyone.

"Can you think of something crazy?" the smile on his face never left. The students are confused about his question, so no one responded. He clicked his tongue as he only received silence. "How about, what is the craziest idea you can ever think of?" he said and made a sound from his fingers. The teacher looked and sounded like he thought of the most brilliant thing ever.

Kyungsoo controlled himself to roll his eyes. "What nonsense is this idiot talking about?"

 

Mr. Lee continued to walk around the room, he spotted a boy, he stopped in front of him and asked if he has an idea. The boy looked flustered. "ahm .. Mr. Lee will look good with pink tutu." he shyly and honestly answered. The room turned silent. They are expecting the man to be upset but the uproar of his laughter broke the ice.

"That is a good one." Mr. Lee said genuinely, while laughing. Not a bit bothered by the student's answer.

 

Kyungsoo automatically blocked everything he can hear from the "idiots" around him. He focused on looking at the white wall beside him. Finding it more interesting than the topic he doesn't understand why they are even talking about it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Ghosts are true." one girl answered.

The boys snickered at the girl's answer. Mr. Lee eyed the girl and place his hand on his chin. "Do you think so?" he asked the girl. The girl smiled at him and nodded her head.

Mr. Lee sat on his table and looked at the ceiling. He still has his hand on his chin. "I guess so" he muttered silently. The snickering of the boys in the class stop as they focus on the man before the class.

"The spirits are true. They reside in every possible form we can ever think of. Even in human." He said seriously and face the class.

 

 

 

The air in the room seemed to be suddenly eerie and serious. Gone the laughters. Gone the jokes.

 

 

 

"The craziest thing I can think about is, the spirits are everywhere. Some spririts are bad, some really aren't. Spirits can give powers. And everyone of you, can possibly have powers." Mr. Lee said, still sitting on top of his table, he put his both hands at his side as he talked seriously.

Everyone in the room turned quiet. Kyungsoo, now facing the teacher, still has his elbow on top of his desk, but now listening what the teacher is saying. Youngjae glanced fleetingly at Kyungsoo, but listen to the teacher, as well.

 

One of the goofy boys tried to chuckle, trying to lighten the mood, but failed. No one chuckled nor laughed. All of them are trying to absorb the idea of the teacher. They look like they are weighing what the teacher is saying or rather, taking it into possibility.

 

 

Mr. Lee paused for a few minutes to let the students think of the idea. He let the idea sink into them.

"Guess what, you didn't apply for this school. You are invited." He said on a calm voice. The all smile teacher isn't there anymore. The stupid smiles of the teacher are gone. There is no teacher - student tone anymore. He sounded talking to someone at his age. Like he is having a man to man talk with the teenagers. He looked so serious and demanded the students to listen to him and take his words seriously.

 

 

He picked up some papers on top of the table, and shuffle it. Looking at the papers, reading some.

"You are invited because you are s

Chapter 14: Ahhh yhis is so ing exciting. Im not sure if you're gonna read this but i love kyungsoo's characterization. The plot is so fun and thrilling, all of the other kings and their knights seems really mysterious. But kyungsoo... he's a really interesting character. From the beginning it seems like he has an idea about what is gping on, but the incident in chapter 13 just confirmed my suspicions! hes obviously a 'wild card' or some sort. its such a shame you probably wont be updating this;; thankyou so much tho! Its been really fun reading this
