Chapter 31

Devon Solaire's POV
It was cloudy and windy day. I can almost see my cycling because of the strong wind.
I left Nino's place early and left my belongings like I.D.'s.
I don't trust lunaphile easily so I fitted the equipment with an ice device. I build my own tracker in case Nino"s brain is demonized and I give up I.D. ko as Running Top 1
I look around, this place has been damaged a lot and looks like a zombie town. Creepy and Dangerous.
I don't even have a weapon but myself and my Ice. While I can fight physically, I will avoid using my magic first.
Main's are watching and it's embarrassing because I don't have any points yet, especially since I was placed as top 1. They will think I'm powerful, I'm just out of breath at the thought.
I need to find weapons to protect myself. Hayst. The wind blows again as I smell some burning in West, smoke in East, and fresh gunpowder in South since I'm heading North.
Wait ..... Gunpowder ..
"Holy Ice!" I blurted out of nowhere and immediately sit.
The bullet straight to the Barrel that cause to break and splash the water inside.
I look at my back and there saw nothing. Long-range gun and the bullet was kinda different. That Lunaphile has the ability to saw far away or even it's tiny. Clever that.
I stand and face my South. I know he or she will shoot me until I become a corpse.
I clenched my fist and sighed. I need a strong shield, I rolled my eyes. Right now, he/she is looking at me for my next move. I find it quite unfair. I can't see a single volume. Maybe he's upstairs, but ... I also don't have transparent second floors, storey or building. Weird ....
"Looking for me ..." I fell down as the bullet approached me again. Geez. That voice belongs to the lady.
I immediately stood up and looked around.
She's here, invisible is her ability. He is not a User- but of course student of M.A.
"What do you want?"
I gently questioned and felt the surroundings. I could have just faced him and his gun was probably already scared of me. I thought she has the ability to see 700 kilometers or tiny things, yun pala invisible siya. Maybe her gun was G47. Small but not long range.
"You" I stood up to hear his voice in my ear. I immediately walked away and looked behind me. I heard her laugh from ..... far away? What ?! Don't tell me he's teleporting.
Darn! Isn't it ... an Elite Royals?
"Why me?" I asked calmly. My Ice Rope is ready. He probably won't notice, I haven't waved my hand yet. I'm just thinking.
"Because it's you, Stubborn. Is there anyone else Devon, besides you, my dear?" I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows at what he said.
"How did you know my name?" I calmed myself. Why I am feeling that all Elite Royals know my name?
I heard a squeak in my waist. She already hold my hand.
"Too slow, Devy. Why were you placed in the Top 1 if your defense is weak" I was stunned by what he said. Kalma devon. Stick to plan.
"It's Devon. And I'm not Top 1 for nothing" I calmly corrected. I'm about to get bored, pramis. Before he could let go of my hand, I took his hand and tied it with an Ice Rope and walked away from him and then held the rope tightly.
I ice his feet, too. You have no escape. He was slowly transforming and I could see who he was.
I turned her gun into ice so she had nothing to use. I also used a shield so that the spectators above knew we were just talking.
She is beautiful, everything is beautiful. Her hair was silver and she was wearing a battle outfit. She's fierce and doesn't look heavenly.
"Sexy" I commented as I look at her head to toe. I knew it, one of Elite Royals.
"Let me go, you Stubborn! Don't you know that I'm guarding you, even if I don't want to ?! Arrggh!" I'm just out of breath but it doesn't mean I will let him go.
"Wow. Guarding me? No, thanks. You should go back to Main, Ms. Belladona Archer. 19 years old, Rank 30. An Invisible and Teleport Ability-hmm. Good in guns" I read on her silver I.D.
I waved that at him and he couldn't believe it. Laglag jaw pa.
"I didn't see that coming--"
"Of course, you didn't notice, you were busy talking to me and you didn't even notice that I got your I.D. even you're invisible" I snapped at him. He seemed bored with what I said. Well, they're all annoyed with me. Don't care, tsk. Kbye.
It struggled violently so I let go of the rope. He removed it and was about to walk but he looked at his foot.
I wore the I.D. he and folded.
"You also forgot that? Oh I'm sorry Belladona. I just didn't advance because you're teleporting" I said and approached her.
"Take that Ice off, Devon! Give me my I.D. !!" he said and I just smiled sparingly.
"You're from Main, aren't you? You can do that that way" he said And left him there. All the viewer above knew was that the two of us had left, actually it was just me. The main will not see Ms. Belladonna because there is a shield and they can't hear what we're talking about.
"I take your gun. It's nice" I said then he finally left, I need points now.
"DEVVVYYYYYY !!!!" I rolled my eyes.
"It's Devon, my dear" I calmly corrected then turned. And there, I saw a cute white bunny eating a Lunaphile's arm.Eww
"Delicious lunch, aww" I commented and pointed Belladona's gun.
*Bang!
Blood and flesh gushed out everywhere.
20 points? Not bad.
520 points ....
Even though I'm Top 1, I still have the lowest points. It's not easy to find creatures. Well, I'm not complaining but it's still with me that I'm disgusted and purely complaining about why I just scored points.
*Bang!
"That's the last bullet, I have. Hey Devon, how many points?" I looked at my right pulse where the points were placed that suddenly appeared earlier and change when they increase.
"550" I answer gently and sparingly. I looked at him and as usual, it was flat.
"Arrggh! If you can help ?! You're the one being helped!" I just smiled at him Tipid and continued walking with both hands turned away.
"You can do it, Belladona. Your guarding me right? Besides, you don't want to say the reason and who is guarding me. It's also in the interest of your ID" I said and looked around. I heard the pag ingos niya and murmur something.Well, yes. He was with me, he volunteered. It's up to him to fight for me.
"Where are we going to get the bullet?" I asked and turned to him. He was once again fighting with a creature that was only his height. Like a detective.
"I thought you didn't have any more bullets?" I calmly asked. She looked at me and rolled her eyes.
"I'm an Elite Royals, remember?" My lips arc in smiling one.
"Oww. I thought you're from 'Newborns', my bad Belladonna" I was pissed at him so he shot me but I dodge it with just one compass using my Ice so the bullet came back and hit the creature so its head exploded.
I look at my right pulse. 628 points, pfft. There are still oddities.
"Nah" its ingos and preceded Me in walking. I just followed him. It was about noon and I had no plans to rest and eat.
My eyes wandered as we passed the market. Andaming damaged, along with the goods.
Well, I'm looking for fruits. And I saw three oranges.
Belladona didn't notice because she was busy fighting with a student. Well, first encounter of Lunaphile student. It looks like his opponent is going to throw something.
I approached the food because I was already hungry. I will watch Belladona first.
I picked three oranges and earned a good seat, close to the fighting. I sat down on a small chair and took down two oranges then peeled one and left then ate it.
Belladonna easily dodge the whip coming to her made by the man. They are good in weapons, perfect match. Bella's gun turned into a katana so their weapon collided.
The man's whip also became a katana so the fight was really intense. No one is losing. I ran out of one so I peeled another orange and then left and ate it.
Belladona turned around and waved her katana loudly. The man was almost hit but he avoided that, the case, his cheek was injured. Mahina. Tsk.
I ate one again and at the same time chewing, the man's head split.
I stopped chewing and was immediately released. I was sick of what I saw.
I already have 10,630 points. The size of the boy's points ah.
I stood up and waved my hand to make an invisible shield, just like I did when I talked to Belladona.
"Your harsh" I commented and threw an orange at him. He immediately split it with his katana. I was so tired.
"Stupid. That's your lunch" I calmly said dropping his jaw. I turned to ice that dead boy and balled my fist which was cracked by the ice until the boy who died turned to snow.
I let go of the shield and flew into the air. To clean.
"WHAT ?!" she shouted so I closed my eyes.
"Lower down your voice, Belladonna" I calmed her down. His shoulder fell and he looked dejectedly at the orange split on the ground.
"Devon, I'm hungry" it sounded like a young harvest.
"It's your fault, Belladonna" I gently replied and threw him an apple. This time, it hit his forehead.
"Aray !!" he shouted and rubbed his forehead. He even released the katana that turned into a gun immediately.
"Tsk. Twice Stupid Ms. Archer. I thought you're Elite Royals?" He immediately picked up the apple and katana.
My eyes widened as he rushed quickly so I immediately turned away and folded my arms.
"What are you doin--"
My speech was interrupted when he immediately disappeared.
Invisible ......
Problems with Belladonna? He's weird.
Blow behind me so I immediately tilted and backed away at the same time he appeared holding the katana.
We had a distance from each other. He turned his back on me with one hand bent and gripping the katana tightly in the other Hand.
"Stop it, Belladonna. Let's go" I said gently and turned away from him.
"Devy" immediately confronted me and quickly caught the apple he threw at me.
The apple turned to Ice and was torn so I let it go. She is no longer the former Belladonna. Her voice changes, her attitude changes.
"Who are you?" I ask. She just smirk and in a flash it suddenly disappeared.
"Nice talking ..." I murmured and scanned around. Where are you, little Bella? Hmmm
"Here we are ... they are coming" I immediately looked behind me and saw two injured Students running in my direction.
They are quite familiar ......
Ah! The one Top 12 and the other Top 5.
I looked at them when I looked at the scroll.
I was about to take a step when I felt the cold thing on my side and neck.
"You're not going anywhere" I close my eyes remembering that Belladona still exists.
I thought they were going to notice me but they just passed me two like the wind. As if invisible.
What just happened?
"Oh my dear Devy--"
"Devon" I correct. It put even more pressure on the grip of the knife on my neck. I feel my blood slowly flowing out.
"Tsk! Whatever your name is, I want you to be kill. Your such a wasteless Lunaphile. And this, bodyguard of yours will die too" she said, I sigh.
"And also, we are invisible so no one can help you" she added
"Who are you? Why did you merge with Belladona's body?" I asked gently while thinking of a plan.
"You don't need to know, my dear. You will also die with this body" he said and laughed devilishly.
I gasped at what he said. How can I come up with a plan if I don"t know his identity? It will be difficult.
"Are you a spirit?"
"Secret my dear" she answered and violently pushed me away. I gain my balance so as not to stumble or fall.
I turned around and as expected, I can't see her.
How can I move it? I grabbed my neck. It had a wound. I made a band aid made of Ice and applied it to my neck. To stop bleeding.
Hearing and senses need to be sharpened. Focus, Devon.
I close my eyes and focus on my surroundings. Every villains target the back of the hero so I won't be surprised if he shows up behind me.
Wait .... Of course!
Gonna start my plan. He won"t show up if I"m ready and alert. I have to neglect my environment. That would be to attack him and do my part.
I open my eyes and let down my guard. I look my surroundings and start to walk.
She's here somewhere, hiding.
All I need to do is find the one who controls Belladona, plan B.
Stick to Plan A, first.
"Come out, come out wherever you are Belladonna" I calmly shouted and rolled my eyes around. Tsk. That's only a bait. I know he won't speak. She'll be silent as a prey ready to attack her victim.
I stopped walking when I saw a shadow on the ground approaching in my direction.
See? Twice as stupid.
I just waited for him to come.
I was immediately alert when I saw two shadows. Geez. The plan gone wrong.
They will attack at the same time. What to do ?!
Geez! I have no choice but to use my magic.
My eyes widened as the two of them appeared in front of me. Gad! The shadow was only a bait!
I immediately backed away when they met the whip and katana.
I waved my hand to make an ice dagger and fought.
I immediately attacked the holding whip and slid the dagger down his whip then he kicked and kicked Belladona so he released the Katana.
I took it and turned it into ice then broke it. They attacked once again so I made a handicuff and it became flurry.
The flurry is like my teleportation.
I put it on Belladona and I didn't even ice her foot so she couldn't move.
I groaned and fell when I was kicked once. I don't know his or her identity or gender because it's cloaked in Red.
I turned around and wanted to sit down but I couldn't move. Geez.
What is it that I came across ?!
I let go of the dagger. I tried to move and speak but I couldn't. Someone's controlling me!
"So Very Excellent in Acting Belladona" I was surprised when the one in the red cloak spoke. It's a Boy.
The ice on Bella's feet and the Handicuffs I put on were removed. My forehead furrowed as Belladona returned to normal and was now smiling. What the food ?!
"She's the Top 1, Boss. All we have to do is take her I.D. and kill her" Belladona smiled. He took the I.d. That engulfed me and burned.
I was surprised at what he did. She's not Belladona Archer from Elite Royals. She's only an impostor.
Her face changes even clothes.
I didn't see that coming. I let my guard so down. I trusted a fellow student myself. Yes! From Newborns of M.A.
The man removed his cloak and I immediately saw it. The Running Top 2. And also a student.
Geez ....
"How are you feeling my dear Devy?" the woman was pissed that I thought it was Belladonna but it wasn't. I thought he was possessed by another spirit but it's just only an act!
I was stunned in my mind. Twice as stupid, again. How can I speak if they control me?
"You're controlling her, so how can she speak?" I was even more depressed to hear that voice.
I was lying on the ground and couldn't move so I couldn't see their faces, it just depended on when they looked at me. But that voice, it's coming from ....
"Nino! Glad you're here!" I heard the boy's voice, the one with the cloak.
"Of course, Jade! You know, I don't want to miss the fun" I heard he said and looked at me. I only look at him but I curse him inside my head many times.
I thought he was just a hunter but he was also a student. Deceptive ones!
"Let's take her, I.D. Then" the girl said with so much excited. I sigh in my mind.
"Nah. I have her I.D. brianna. And her things, also the I.D.'s of Mr. Crush Schoenberg and Ms.Julliet Radian, and ... her I.d. As a Running top 1" he said proudly. They applauded.
"Wow! So smart, Nino! How did you get that?" That Jade ask in amazement. Nino look at me and grin then look at them.
"I'm a great deceiver. You forgot ata" I was just listening to their conversation. Soon, my plan will be over.
Yes, I have my plan. Surprise?
"How can they chose like this stupid here for being the Top 1? I should be the top 1 cause I deserve it" Jade said michievously and laughed triumphantly.
They lost control of me when my plan ended.
Twice smarter, but twice stupid.
I crawled away but pulled one foot back to where I was.
"You can't escape Devon!"
Third Person's POV
"Let's finish this one" Brianna said and stepped on Devon's stomach as she moaned.
Jade controls Devon's body again.
Brianna summoned her G47 gun and point to Devon who was sighing in pain.
"What if, let's play with him first? That would be fun right? Hahahahaha" Nino suggested and laughed as the two agreed and apologized.
Devon did nothing because he could not move himself. She can't also think properly because she's too busy controlling him and it's trapped.
Brianna changed her weapon into small knife, she slashed Devon's left and right arm, while her two companions were pleased with what was happening to Devon who is already crying in pain. They were more pleased with the girl's expression.
"What's next, my dear brothers?" Devon is surprise to hear what Brianna's said.
"Hmmm .... If we pull his two legs there" Nino said in proud tone and pointed to the mini stage where there are two poles spaced apart and there is a flag at its height. A gold and red one rectangle flag-sign as a competition for Running Top 15.
Devon couldn't believe what he heard.
'Geez! That would hurt my back as hell 'thought Devon.
Jade controlled Devon's legs and parted it. The men were amazed and lust flashed in their eyes. Brianna was turned away.
"Nice legs ... I would love to taste it ..." Nino only said
"Especially if in the middle part of him, I want to lick it, and taste it too ...." Jade commented and gently touched Devon's foot until it landed on her legs.
Even if Devon wanted to struggle, he could do nothing. In her case, she's a hopeless girl.
The siblings quickly pulled on Devon's two legs as Brianna laughed laughing following behind them.
Enjoying watching Devon's expression ....
She can feel hotness on her back, like being grilled. Until he could feel the pain in Its back. In his mind he had a sore wound on his back.
They put it on the mini stage and Nino and Brianna looked for a rope.
Devon was sweating profusely. Tired and frowning at the pain in his back. He lost control of his body and seemed to be free and relieved even though he had many wounds on his body.
"Now, you're mine" he turned to Jade who was grinning devilishly and with lust in her eyes.
Devon sat up weakly and backed away. Ready to use her Ice magic and freeze this rapist who touches her and its profanity.
Her heart was full of anger. Letting her guard down to this unknown Lunaphile was such a disappointment to her and to her clan. Especially with her parents in Main who are quiet but fearful because of the condition of her son being watched on the big screen. It's on Screen 20 and they're probably the only ones who notice it, including her friends, Crush and Shawn who's clenching their jaws and that white haired guy who just stares blankly at Screen 20 watching in his own dormitories.
Back to the down where Devon fighting Jade. She summoned Ice sword and forgot the plan.
Before Devon attack, Jade immediately controls Devon's body to the center where the two poles are between.
He struggled but due to the amount of wounds he could no longer resist the growing force that Jade was releasing.
Suddenly, his two other brothers arrived with a rope along with a large number of students carrying their various weapons.
"Tie her up, I might kill her in no time" Jade said as her jaw tightened.
Nino punched her Stomach so she released the ice sword and writhed in pain. Brianna immediately tied both her hands and feet to the two poles.
The students roared as they could see in their eyes that they wanted to kill Devon.
The three siblings faced the crowd and smiled broadly.
To be continued...
