Destruction Angel Summoned After Being Dead For 500 Years Finds Love
Chapter 15: Chitose Unsealed

The air inside the classroom was filled with excitement, as animated students chatted about the pillar of light yesterday. The past whole week had been the most mind-blowing time they ever had in their entire lives. First was the arrival of Tusk... who was not only from the capital, but the son of the new governor, he did not even disappoint the expectations of the girls, as he is strikingly good looking as well.

Then there was the practical MAGIC exercise that went beyond their expectations in terms of action and excitement, the awesome display of control by their classmates, the earth turned-into concrete golem of Claire and Lyn, and last but certainly not the least, the red lighting of Tusk and Meilou.

Then the accident happened... but thank the gods Chitose was okay, some of the students who were close when it happened swore that Chitose looked smaller after the incident, Bruno then went along laughing after hearing that she was fine and started telling the others not to worry, and that all that was blasted away from Chi's body was her fat.

Because of this, those students who were far from the incident or from other classes were very curious, since Chitose is quite popular too... but not in a pleasing way. She was popular as the fattest person in school.

Hearing that rumor as it circulated around the academy, it's really not surprising that it became one of the hottest topics in history as bored students with nothing to do in this lazy part of the world found something that doesn't happen everyday.

Droves of students from other classes have gathered near Class-2 C's classroom. They were all curious to see if the rumours were true. All of them waiting for Chitose to arrive, the chatter and natter attracted more and more students until the corridor outside Class-2C became jam-packed with pupils eager to see this phenomena themselves.

Only one student was not joining the commotion. Claire sat silently by herself, her face resting atop her arms while she stared outside through the window, her thoughts are her own... her face, a picture of a person betrayed.

…………………………..

Lord Arsenon Regnum was standing in front of a full body mirror inside his room in the new house that was commissioned to him and his family by the king as the new governor of Triplance. He was invited to the school where his son Tusk studies by the School Headmaster himself as was stated in an official letter that he received the other day.

Lord Ars knew how important an institution the school in Triplance is, without this school, the people of this province won't be able to use MAGIC and would be very much defenseless if brigands decided to raid this town.

He also knew that this institution had been part of the history of this region for hundreds of years and it merits his utmost respect.

"Tusk, come here for a minute son…" Ars called, as he took a small wooden box from a large chest that he had brought from his old residence at the capital. He meticulously surveyed the box for any signs of tampering or damages.

Satisfied, he then slowly opened the box and took out it's content; a small cylindrical object with runes inscribed all over its body.

"The key…" Ars silently muttered, his piercing eyes observing the curious object.

The runes that lined the cylindrical key glowed in an eerie light. It was a gift from the king himself when they were still young, the king told him that the artifact belonged to his family for generations, but really had no known use, only that the mages of old referred to it as some sort of key. He gave it to him to study and perhaps uncover it's mysteries. But Ars never bothered to learn its secrets, and instead considered the key...
