Everyone were still fired up for the upcoming tournament, especially the selected ones, but more specifically Lucas. He still wanted to defeat and annihilate Aspho High, and that irritating Vacio at his face.He walks towards the main hall. But, however, not all of the students are staring at him as usual. Some are busy like having a hectic schedule.
Lucas wandered the hall, wondering what is the event this time.
"Faster, in a few hours White Day High"s Founding Anniversary will commence!"
White Day High"s Founding Anniversary..?
Lucas was left shocked. But he wasn"t minding it seriously. He didn"t and can"t feel any novelty to such festivities anymore. All he wanted to prove was his skills. That he has a meaning in this world of magic power.
Lucas then stopped after spotting Steel and Scottie at the canteen. His heart throbbed after reminiscing the scene he made at Aspho High"s canteen before. He seemed to have a phobia towards canteen ever since that day.
"Lucas! So you"re a real cynosure now, huh?!" as always, Steel still was shouting. With some resemblance of his black leather jacket from before, he wore a dark red one.
"No, not really..."
Steel patted Lucas" left shoulder as if treating him as a child. "Don"t be so humble. You aren"t really the strongest!"
"Yes." Scottie seemed sad. With his tone of voice, it was like he was worried about something.
"Didn"t you know that there will be an elimination for the selected partic.i.p.ants when the founding anniversary commence?" Steel asked Lucas. But it seemed he was informing him.
"Princ.i.p.al Lyns got the list of her handpicked partic.i.p.ants to partake the last Overall Skill Selection." he continued.
Scottie bowed his head. "And I am sure that I am not on that list.." he whispered.
"D-Don"t feel down.." Lucas spoke. "At first, I also thought that I wasn"t so strong enough to be selected. But here I am, winning against Two Bastions."
"I"ve watched that show!" Steel was full of energy. "You were hyped!"
"I"ve become superior to them now." Lucas continued. "By that, I wasn"t feeling down with myself."
Scottie now happened to make a smile of his face. His white hair was impressive as always.

Then, something kept rewinding on his mind. The moment a man squeezed his face at the Null Room!
"We made a mistake of respecting you as White. You act as if you"re a strong student. You had just selected and you think you"re superior than us."
Huh?! Were they the— it couldn"t be!
—"But here I am, winning against Two Bastions."
—"I"ve become superior to them now."
They can not be the ones who"ve beaten me! I did not sure they can! But, were the Two Bastions beaten me?
—"Huh, well. Where"s your courage now, Lucas."
—"He"s daring as h.e.l.l. If only Maru didn"t get scared; I could have crippled him."
No, Lucas was now sure! It was Zanc and Maru!! First, they went excited after finding out that he was a Fire Starter when he transferred in. Then, they battle him when he was proving his G.o.dly Potential. Why? Why would they battle him?
"Hey, Lucas! Don"t s.p.a.ce out!!"
Steel"s scream made Lucas snapped back to reality. But still, he wasn"t sure about the fact he just found out.
"I-I am fine."
"Are you sure you are fine?" Scottie"s face was painted with worry. "You looked pale!"
"I just come up with a realization. I finally knew who were the men that beaten me at the Null Room!" Lucas ran away. He did because if he don"t, the Two Bastions will surely lose face when he tell them.
Why? Lucas asks in his mind while running. Why would the Two Bastions have such an immense anger with him?
Why?
"Lucas!"
Lucas b.u.mped to a man. As usual, he don"t have to look at the man to know who he is. He has the sense to know that at least.
"Moon!" he shouted. "You"re here?!"
"No, why are you here?" Moon retorted with an expressionless face. It was his angry face, if Lucas remembered. "It was the hall to my cla.s.sroom, that"s why I am here. And you..?"
"I just realized who the guys at the Null Room that time!" Lucas replied. "I remembered you saying you"ll made them realize who they are messing with, right?"
"Those men.." Moon"s teeth grinded a bit. "Just tell me who they are!"
Um.. Moon, you can calm down. You can. "Am I suppose to tell you at this moment?"
"I am not joking!"
Moon.. you"re giving me a hard time.. "Umm.. It was Zanc and Maru.." he softly whispered.
"WHAT?!!!!"
"Eh... you"re expressions were over.. Calm down..." Lucas chuckled.
"Lucas, Moon!"
It was Doll"s voice. Moon faced back, while Lucas looked at Doll. She has a worrying face.
"There was a spy from Aspho that was rumored to be listing our handpicked partic.i.p.ants!" she abruptly shouted. She was so anxious to the point that she was mildly shaking.
"A spy?"
"No, a.s.sa.s.sins, rather! Lots of them surrounding us, according to Princ.i.p.al Lyns!!" she continued.
"We should hurry!" Moon replied.
"Yeah!" Lucas eagerly shouted. He prepared himself. "Let"s go before the Founding Anniversary started!"
DING! DING! Oh, it"s the emcee!
"Now, let"s start the celebration of White Day High"s Founding Anniversary!!!"
