This question made the whole classroom look at him with utter disdain but he did not pay attention to what the whole class taught even if they ridiculed him.Many were ridiculed him except for His teacher and Lilian Sevour.A chubby student spoke arrogantly "Oh please peasant you think that you are very smart but it seems like you been losing your screws lately huh you think that bed time stories are for real",. Yeah another one intervened while he chuckled to himself saying madam I think that this dude is mentally unstable you know because I do not think that his brain is still in order he has started believing in fairy tales that speak about vampires,werewolves dragons and werewolves along with Phoenixes and the like which is rubbish and tantamount to nothing but utter stupidity", Li Chang a handsome guy who liked Lilian Sevour spoke arrogantly against him.Gu Wan and Li Chang keep quiet Mrs Reynolds scolded them before looking at him with a flustered expression that ended up in being a cheerful expression before it became serious and said "No such creatures do not exist they are just fables and legends that came from human thinking and there is no record no not even in the two worlds regarding these fascinating creatures has been discovered but they maybe discovered in the other 12 realms if we can go there of course",she smiled sweetly at him.
Ray kept quiet and did not utter a word after that.After the lesson he did not speak to anybody because he was digesting the information they had been taught and he did not know why but his information seemed familiar.He was just thinking about when and where he stumbled upon that information but he did not remember and this ended in him receiving a slight head ache but that did not stop him because all of the information that she had shared with the class was familiar too much familiar and he did not stumble upon it through a book or anything like that but it was from someone but who was that someone who talked about this except his uncle who told him about many stories concerning these mythological creatures that included those creature.It was not his uncle because he did not remember his uncle talking about the Primordials that much or about the fights although he talked about them more than what Mrs Reynolds had said and he understood them but it was only once and he did not seem like he liked talking about them because although he said something about the Primordials he knew that the guy abhorred them more than anything else .
To this he thought that it was because they were responsible for his elder brother and his wife's death 11 years ago "Wait 11 years ago this means that if my parents died 11 years ago then my parents died when I was five and that makes me 16 but if I am 16 then I needed to open the box that my uncle told me to open at exactly six o'clock",he thought to himself.This means that I am 16 and all those events that happened were real and this means that I am in the second trial right now but what must I do.He then thought about that whoosh'. sound yet again and he knew what he had to do in order to pass this second trial maybe then maybe he would be able to pass it if he discovered what that sound was later on that mountain .At that moment things were clarified to him because at that moment he remembered that Mrs Reynolds once talked about this topic once meaning that if he was correct then this second trial was formed out of .his past experiences .Now you might be wondering what past experience did this guy ever have.
The reason he came to this conclusion was because the first days Lilian Sevour did not look at him or talk to him in class that much and those were the first days two years ago he came here and two the memory whereby she smiled at him for the first time in the cafeteria was when all the school drama of him being hated not only by his classroom but by almost the whole school because of her starting to interact with him and this is why he tried to just ignore her making the other guys angered by his action which Stupefied him because he thought that it woukd not garner unnecessary attention but it doubled because they all had some kind of righteous indignation and in their minds they were like "How dare he ignore a beauty like that he must be courting death they all thought and the disdain they harbored for him increased by leaps and bounds.(Cultivation style homie chill with that).Three Mrs Reynolds once taught a lesson about this so this was no coincidence no it was not a coincidence everything that happened was not even a coincidence it was like everything he was going through right now was something based on some past events that were interwoven together to make a perfect confusing second trial Darn it",those guys want me erased don't they he thought .Their lesson had landed and Mrs Reynolds went to his desk and nudged his shoulders."Are you okay",she asked him with a look of sympathy etched on her face.To this he scratched his head before saying "Yes madam I am good. "You sure because all of the questions you asked me where kind of weird very weird because that ain't like you so I thought that I should ask you",she said."Nothing madam do not worry I was just kind of in the mood to ask those kind of questions you know who would possibly believe that Vermillion birds and Phoenixes etcetera, etcetera exist.Although he said this he knew that they existed because there were Vermillion birds out therewho wanted him erased from the very plane of existence."Okay now you should go to your abilities classroom she said",. He got up from his chair and left the classroom following at the back of his fellow classmates who were going there too.
A smile was etched on his face because he knew darn well that this was The Second Trial for sure.
