The mysterious man stared at the bush where Damian was hidden. For a moment, Damian thought it would be the end of his life.

Why? That man looked like an assassin, and he had already killed another student, so how could Damian escape from that?

"Maybe if I fly away fast enough, he will not kill me. No, that will not work."

Damian did not know what was the man's ability, and most abilities had ranged attacks, so flying away was not as easy as it sounded.

Time seemed to slow down, and after a few seconds, the man stopped gazing at the bush Damian was, and returned to dispose of the student's body.

Damian sighed in relief, happy that his life would continue. But he also wondered who was that person? It did not look like it was from Garmony Upper School, and was voluntarily searching for students to kill.

"Should I warn the professors? Also, why can't they see him through the cameras?"

It was a hard decision to make, but the thing Damian witnessed seemed to be more important than the stupid test the school made, and maybe sharing what he saw could be even better than the grades and points the winner of the test would get.

Also, what was the reason for points and grades if those assassins killed everyone?

But of course, before trying any of that, Damian wanted to find his friends. It was a dangerous place to be, even for Magnus.

"Finding them will be a problem, though."

Damian did not know what to do. Rescuing his friends was the right call, but they were all scattered across the area, meaning it would take a long time to find them, and time was not something he had!

He had to warn the professors as fast as possible for them to help them.

"I will fly toward the barrier!"

It was night, and Damian had yet to sleep, but there was no time for that! He went up high after seeing the assassin was no longer there, and flew toward Garmony Upper School.

This time, afraid the assassin would find him, Damian flew higher than usual, making it almost impossible for ranged attacks to hit him — that if the assassins did not know how to fly, too!

The professors, who were watching the test through the cameras, saw nothing strange. For them, no student got killed, and there was no man in black robes.

pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ Some professors were preparing to leave the room and sleep, but someone came rushing toward their room, banging on the door, "Beasts are attacking us everywhere!"

With one sentence, the adrenaline rushed, and all the professors weren't sleepy anymore, but worried as they left the surveillance room.

After flying for a few hours straight, Damian reached the barrier where a responsible from the school would be in case any of them needed to leave, but there was no one.

Damian screamed and screamed, yet no one came to answer. It was as silent as a graveyard, and Damian had a bad feeling about all of it.

"I think whatever organization that assassin is from, they are already attacking Garmony. Fuck, this is worse than I thought!"please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

It was just a guess, but one that made sense for Damian. There was no reason for a single person to act on its own, invading the school's test to kill weak students.

They had better things to do, and by the looks of it, that was indeed the case.

A feeling of being lost took over Damian's body. What could he do?

"I don't wave the strength to fight against the assassin. I don't have the strength to break through this barrier, and I cannot find my friends either…"

He had no clue about what to do next, but that changed when he looked once again toward the barrier and saw a gorgeous lady walking toward him. It was Vanessa!

She wore the same professor uniform, but it had a few scratches, as if she was fighting just now.

"Damian! I was going to look for you right now."

"Vanessa? Why are you here?"

Damian felt the situation was weird. Vanessa placed her hand on the barrier, and it recognized her as one teacher, so it opened up a passage for Damian to get out.

"Vanessa. There is a man in black robes killing students! I don't know how you did not see it through the camera, but we must go back and help them!" Damian said, explaining the situation, yet Vanessa did not look surprised, as if she already knew…

"Wait-"

Before Damian could do anything, a dart hit his neck, making him fall asleep.

Magnus was jumping from tree to tree, trying to find a specific person. It was night, yet his eyes could see everything perfectly, and then he spotted the person he looked for.

"Magnus? What are you doing here? You know we cannot form groups," Aurora said, as she sat around a campfire, surprised to see Magnus appear out of nowhere.

"Aurora, things are bad! I saw an unknown man kill another student, and I went to the barrier to check. There was no one from the school there. The school is in trouble, and they are trying to kill us here!"

"What?"

Aurora saw Magnus as a good friend, and someone that helped her, Damian, and Theo. She could tell just by looking at his eyes that he was telling the truth, so Aurora followed him as they looked for Damian and Theo.

Magnus sniffed at two items, each belonging to one person, and he followed their scent. Damian's scent was out of the perimeter, so they first found Theo, who was hiding inside a cave, afraid of going out.

"You scared me!" Theo jumped as he saw a bulky man walk toward him during the night.

"Theo, we have problems."

After reuniting everyone, Magnus followed Damian's scent until reaching the part of the barrier where Vanessa attacked him. It was still open, so they left the test area, carefully looking around to see if any dangers were lurking, waiting for them.
