A Destained Young Master Villain

Chapter 54 Celestia’s Compassion





'Inside the Inner Area'

Hawkin, along with the other two professors, were presently utilizing their mana and aura to fly, whilst employing it to sense their surroundings in search of the missing students.

Celestia was at a distance, retreating as sooon as she received the instructions to go back. As she was running back, she caught a glimpse of Professor Hawkin in the distance.

She advanced towards him, catching Hawkin's attention, and he let out a heavy sigh of relief upon seeing that Celestia was unharmed. In the eventuality of any harm befalling her, the Doomthorne would direct their wrath towards them.

Once Celestia arrived in front of him, she asked, "What is going on, Professor?" What's with the sudden retreat order?" She felt confused, but then she thought of how she and Fiona encountered the Tier two Wayvern.

Before she could think about it and tell him about what they had encountered, Hawkin promptly articulated in a grave manner, "Based on our thorough investigation, it appears that there will be a beast outbreak. We need to get out of here first, and we'll talk about it on the way."

"Ah! Make sense now how me and Fiona encountered a Tier two beast."

"You…you what?" Hawkin was taken aback to hear that they had encountered a Tier two beast, not to mention the Doomthorne family. There was also the Raverdieu family, such that any knowledge of Fiona being exposed to perilous circumstances could potentially lead to severe consequences.

"Oh, Celestia, please refrain from discussing the events that occurred in this place," he uttered.

Celestia discerned the source of his concern and smiled, then reassured him, saying, "Rest assured, Professor, there's no need to fret. My lips are zip tight."

They subsequently proceeded on their way and rendezvoused with the other two professors.

Each of them successfully convened with one another. Hawkin inquired of the other two professors whether they had successfully located the missing students, to which they informed him of their unsuccessful efforts and the possibility of their unfortunate demise.

When Celestia heard this, she blamed herself for not informing the professors back then.

[If I had only agreed with Fiona and reported it back then, then the students wouldn't have died.] she thought with a depressed expression on her face.

'ROAARRRR' 'THUMP' 'THUMP'

Following a brief discussion, they made ready to depart the Twilight Zone, only to be met with an overwhelming clamor and a multitude of thunderous reverberations that appeared to rock the very foundations, akin to the tremors of an earthquake.

They swiftly shifted their gaze towards a specific direction from which the reverberating roars emanated, only to behold a multitude of thousands of ferocious creatures approaching in their direction.

"It's really a beast breakout! We need to inform everyone right away and evacuate the whole ten thousand miles!"

"This is a huge problem. Let's quickly get out here!"

Without delay, they swiftly disembarked, positioning themselves around Celestia in a protective stance, prepared to promptly respond and shield her in the event of any unforeseen circumstances.

Celestia glanced over her shoulder one final time, and her gaze fell upon a towering creature bearing human like qualities, but at the same time, the beast simply looked strange, positioned at the farthest end of the herd of beasts. As she gazed upon the creature, a sensation of goosebumps traveled across her entire body, causing her hair to stand up.

The sight of it seemed to induce a sensation of suffocation in her.

Sensing Celestia's abnormality, Hawkin spoke, breaking her out of her state, "Hey what's wrong with you, Celestia." As he said that, he looked towards where she was looking, but he saw nothing other than many beasts scattered around rushing in their direction.

He assumed that her reaction was simply due to being taken aback by witnessing an outbreak for the first time in her life. However, his speculation was instantly denied when Celestia spoke, "I saw something! It looked like a human, but at the same time, it was not. It's hard to explain, but it had peculiar traits, such as glowing red eyes and a pallid, deathlike color to its body!"

Upon hearing this, Hawkin's brow furrowed as he contemplated what Celestia had said and thought about something. The fact that it had glowing red eyes and the striking resemblance of its appearance to a particular beast he had been acquainted with prompted further reflection from him.

"Wait! That should be the one leading this outbreak! A Tier one Wendigo."

The two professors heard their discussion, and one of them also expressed his thoughts about the matter.

"Is it possible that this beast is the perpetrator responsible for Professor Adika's death."

"Apart from that, there would be no beast capable of causing his demise within the entirety of this Twilight Zone, with the exception of a Tier one beast."

"This is really bad. That is why there is an outbreak. There is a Tier one beast leading them. They wouldn't dare break out of the forest if there wasn't one!"

Celestia experienced a brief moment of shock, but promptly composed herself due to her strong mental fortitude.

They rushed out of the forest at a faster speed.

Many students who were waiting at the station saw four figures emerge out of the forest.

Fiona and Daphne also caught sight of them, prompting a sense of relief as they saw Celestia among them. They did not really care about the other students who went missing, but it was a different matter for Celestia, as she cared about everyone's lives.

The professors expeditiously assembled all individuals present and notified them regarding the prevailing circumstances.

Fiona's speculation regarding the outbreak has proven to be accurate. Fiona's intelligence, which enabled her to swiftly deduce the situation, garnered even greater admiration from the students.

When abruptly a multitude of Wyverns emerged from the surrounding Twilight Zone, unleashing long ranged breath attacks upon the very ships they were about to enter in.

'BOOM' 'BOOM' 'BOOM'

All the ships simultaneously exploded from the coordinated attacks of the Wayverns.

Although the ships had defensive barriers to protect itself from attacks, it simply could not withstand the amount of power the Wayverns used. This was a Tier two beast after all, so it had no way of resisting their attacks.

Many students were also caught up in the attack and died. Those students who also boarded the ship also died and are now buried under the rubble of the ships.

Countless screams of agony can be heard around, with many being injured and close to death. As for Fiona, Daphne, and Celestia, they were near the professors, so they were protected by them.

The other A and B class students were also safe, as the professors prioritized those talented students first and simply did not care about the other lower class students.

This was just how the world works.

Seeing what just happened, the professors scowled, and the students that survived started to panic because their only transport to retreat had been destroyed.
