The corridor to the roundtable chamber felt longer than usual.
Kira walked in silence, the sound of his footsteps echoing faintly against the polished stone floor. Beside him, the guard maintained a rigid posture, spear in hand, but even he seemed uneasy—as if escorting not a student, but something far more dangerous.
At the end of the hallway stood the massive doors.
Ancient. Carved with symbols older than the University itself.
The guard stopped.
"This is as far as I go."
For a moment, there was only stillness.
Then—
The doors opened.
A low creak broke the silence as Kira stepped inside.
The roundtable chamber revealed itself slowly, lit by dim golden light that hung from chandeliers above. At the center stood the massive circular table, engraved with runes that shimmered faintly, as if alive.
And seated around it—
The Six Elders.
The moment Kira crossed the threshold, every single one of them turned their gaze toward him.
Six pairs of eyes.
Cold. Heavy. Judging.
It felt suffocating.
Kira didn't bow.
Didn't speak.
He simply stood there, facing them, as if challenging the weight of their authority.
A long silence followed.
Then, one of the elders leaned forward slightly, fingers interlocked, voice calm—but sharp enough to cut through the air.
"So…"
A pause.
"…how do you intend to explain this, curse child?"
----------------------
The main gate of the University of Torminas had become a battlefield long before anyone realized it.
The fountain at its centre—once a symbol of calm and prestige—now ran red.
The lady in red enters, holding her dragger she smiles widening her cheeks.
Looking towards her Elvin smiles and then—
The guards charged forward at her.
One of the students touched the ground and as he touched the pathway started becoming mud.
The idea here was to trap the devil but as the student looked up a dragger pierced through his head and then she smashed one guard head with her hands engulf with her mana.
She then charged towards the student corpses where she throwed her dragger.
The guards try to stop her but ended in a same result.
Her faces were covered with blood as she licks and then pulled her dragger from the student corpses head.
"This is fun...", She smiles and then sliced mercilessly another guard right hand and then put her fingers into his eyes, making him blind and released a massive mana burst.
The air trembled with the aftershock of mana bursts.
Bodies of guards lay scattered, torn apart—not by blades alone, but by something far more grotesque. Every corpse bore the same signature: ruptured from within.
At the centre stood Oryn.
His blade dripped—not with blood, but with unstable mana. His breathing was sharp, controlled, yet strained. Anyone he cut… exploded. It wasn't just a blessing—it was a curse masquerading as power.
Across from him—
The Lady in Red.
Her dress flowed like liquid blood, untouched by the chaos around her. She smiled—not out of joy, but out of curiosity. As if this massacre were nothing more than a passing amusement.
Behind her—
A large beast who was looking like a lion and behind his backs were wings.
"Go," she whispered softly.
The beast obeyed instantly, vanishing into the inner campus.
She didn't even look back.
Because to her… everyone here was already dead.
——————
Oryn dashed forward.
A clean strike—fast, precise.
His blade grazed her arm.
BOOM.
The explosion ripped through the air—but—
Nothing.
No blood.
No damage.
The Lady in Red tilted her head slightly.
"Ah… so that's your blessing."
Her fingers twitched.
The ground beneath Oryn shifted.
Stone turned to something soft—almost liquid—pulling him down. The air around him thickened, bending unnaturally.
Her blessing…
It was like a nature was obeying her.
Vines shot upward. The ground swallowed his footing. Even the air resisted his movement.
Oryn struggled—
And for the first time—
He hesitated.
That was enough.
She raised her hand.
The environment sharpened—stone spikes forming mid-air, aiming straight for his chest.
"Die", she whispers
But the spikes passed through his body like they doesn't exist.
Oryn was shock and for a brief moment he stood still. His eyes hovered serving through the surrounding but there was something wrong.
And then as he realizes——
The lady in red appeared, behind him from air and then as she swinged her dragger.
Clang—
Something stopped her.
The boy struggled as he tries to hold the devil dragger by his sword overwhelm with his mana.
"ELVIN!", Oryn shout.
But he was late as the devil's name as the lady in red shifted her dragger downside in a blink of an eye and swinged into the Elvin hand going towards his chest.
The blood followed as the dragger sliced his inner hand and some deeps parts into his chest, Elvin expression on his dark eyed face changed.
"Hk-"
But he survives as Oryn smashed his sword onto the ground creating a explosion which made the lady step back.
But as she leapt, she launched herself on another student who was crying to his friend corpses and then smiles, piercing her dragger into his eyes, splashing blood and breaking the shield as the student tries to protect himself.
"I love it", She says smiling.
Elvin falls on his butt leaning towards Oryn who gives him support,
"Are you ok", He ask
"Yeah", Elvin says as he tries to stand back.
His gaze glued onto the corpses and then towards the devil itself who was standing on the two student corpses and widening his smile.
His eyes then shifted towards Oryn who was looking towards him, exhaling his lungs.
"I have a plan", He mutters.
——————
At the Second Gate.
Iris, The Lady in feathers enters as she flew from upside towards the university passing the gate.
"Gotch', So this is the famous university huh..."
At downside there was Cas who was looking towards her, with his hand on his cheeks thinking about something and standing besides him was Eren and some guards and students.
Her eyes glanced towards the university and in a next second she shifted her gaze downside.
"Yo, why are you standing there.", she says and in a blink of an eye she swings her wings releasing a two massive hurricane towards the people downside.
For her they were just little ants.
The president Cas saw the hurricane coming towards him, but he didn't panic as he was thinking that this will happen.
He then put forward his one hand and then—
"Blessed authority
A massive portal opens at the front of the attack and then vanish consuming the hurricane as if they had engulfed within them.
"What", the women spoke indicating her surprise and then as she hovered her eyes, she sees that the Eren was missing.
But as she hovered something caught in her corner of her eyes and as she looked behind a massive portal was open and by that portal Eren emerges aiming and swinging her sword towards her wings.
"Ah!"
But to the Eren surprises as he leapt towards her she turned grabbing Eren with her hands.
"Hk—", Eren says as she uses air slashes which cut his cheeks and his hands.
The situation was not looking good. So, thus Eren thinks of using himself as a bet and in a next second something came through inside his body trapping the women and himself.
Blessed authority
A glowing plates erose and covered his body and also the hands of the women connecting both of them and then—
"Ahh..."
Eren kicks her and grabbed her wings which enable her to fly and then they both were launched towards the ground.
"Do you want to die?", women says.
"Yeah, lets die in hell together.", Eren replies as they both crashes on the ground and breaking it with their force.
The smoke erupts and they both were launched in opposite direction.
Cas sees the opportunity and closing his one eye and rising his hand.
"A bird cage is ready."
And then—
A massive hemi circle emerges from the ground surrounding game which in reality were just portals covering them to make sure the bird or the women couldn't fly.
"You bastards"
The women say standing and flipping her wings and then widened her smile seeing her worst situation in which she most likely cannot use her wings.
The guards and student observing, starts to attack but before they could do anything a massive air slash cut their head, hands and some other body parts, thus spilling the blood.
"This is making me excited"
