After entering their rooms, everyone immediately hit the bet except for two people Ryan and Bernard, although for completely different reasons for Ryan it was about the old man Quzin he had met for the first time and for Bernard he was wondering if the second years would finally be punished or if someone else would be forced to take their blame just to hide their tracks just like always or just like before the academy would ignore it, however, they didn't dwell much about it, for Ryan he was simply grateful to the old man Quzin.
He thought when he told the old man about how he betrayed his friends, then he would mock him and even scold him for being greedy and selfish, instead, the old man did none of that, rather he made him understand he was just being a human and anyone in his position would have done the same thing, especially when they had no choice as well, what's more, the old man had willingly agreed to stop the fight between the first years and the second years, without thinking twice.
However, before that the old man made him understand although he had no choice in the matter, that didn't change the fact he was still wrong and needed to correct his mistake, and just feeling sad and blaming himself would not correct anything rather he needed to retrace his steps, think about his actions and seek forgiveness from those he had offended.
Back then inside the weapon hall, Quzin and Ryan could be seen, "Thanks for agreeing to help me when my friends were in danger, otherwise, Bernard and the girls would have been dead by now."
"No problem," Quz replied with a simple smile on his calm expression, as he looked at the student before him Ryan who was said to be Bernard's friend, he noticed the boy was still feeling sad about it, although the boy had made a mistake the fact he felt guilty about it and was ready to change, means he still had a good heart and would mend his ways if given the chance, however, he still felt to resolve the situation would not be that easy, considering the way his friends might react when they eventually got to know that their friend had sold them out.
"What do you think will happen when they get to know, I was the one who betrayed them do you think they will hate me?"Ryan asked with a hoarse voice and teary eyes, as he looked at the old man before him.
"Hmm, I do not know if they would hate you or not."Quzin replied."But what I do know that is that if they truly consider you a friend from the beginning they simply wouldn't hate you, instead they would only keep away from you for a while for being hurt, I am pretty sure if you truly prove yourself to be guilty and have learned your lesson with time am sure they would learn to understand and forgive you eventually. However, you must also understand the heart doesn't forgive easily especially when hurt, so don't expect them to simply accept you back just like that."
Ryan recalls all these, before finally falling asleep.
***********
Meanwhile, within a dark room sounds of boots colliding against the ground could be heard, the sound kept resounding for a while until eventually, it stopped, and then as if a lamp had been lit up the dark room gradually became dimly lit up when it did the sounds of boots colliding could be heard once again, however, this time the sounds resounding seemed to have doubled, as if two people were taking a stroll.
After a while, there was a sound of something lightly touching a chair, and suddenly there was a light cough before a hoarse voice said out loud."I have heard about what happened Daniel, and how that old wretch intervene like he always does in other people's business."
The person said, with hate and scorn ridicule in his voice.
"Didn't you say the old man wouldn't intervene, so why did this happen? Of all people who came to stop us was him, I can still remember what he did to the previous second years like it was just yesterday's event, if not for the academy head, you and I both know he would simply have wiped out the entire second year from existence, you know how much I don't want to die."
"Daniel calm down, and stop panicking we both know nothing will come of this even if you continued from now to the end of the day, I promised the old man had no such intention of doing that, besides you guys didn't kill the apple of his eyes so he simply had no reason to."The hoarse voice replied.
"And yes I know what happened before, besides the only reason he went on a massacre was that some ignorant fools thought, he would not do anything and harmed his student, this was the reason why he had gone on a rampage, so as long as you guys don't make such foolish mistake I can assure you, he wouldn't go after you guys this is why I said you should calm down."
"I understand, however, I seem to have hurt the boy Bernard Cat really badly." Daniel said with a bit of worry.
"Relax, as far as I know, the old man wouldn't mind, otherwise you wouldn't be standing in front of me alive."The hoarse voice, as if he was remembering something.
"Seemed like you have had a bad day yourself, judging from your tone."Someone suddenly said, when Daniel heard the voice he didn't need to turn to know who had just said that, the only person who knew his and Mr seven secret hall would only be his best friend kanayo the rank 6 second year.
"Never mind that I just want our little meeting to be kept secret and let no ear hear what we discussed both in the past and present. Otherwise, you know the consequences..."Mr seven said, as his voice gradually faded away.
