Chapter 132 – [Bonus ]Silenced By Stephen
Within the school grounds, the six male students that Sofia was targeting discussed the incident like a subject of entertainment. They comfortably sat on the bench that had a shade from the tallest tree in the vicinity.
These students were teasing Ash for saying sorry to Sofia after he grabbed her arm.
"I heard you apologized to that girl, bro! Hahaha," the man with messy hair started.
"Ash was scared back there!" another one pointed out.
"Shut up! I just want to play with that assassin user," Ash grimaced. He could not also explained why he said sorry towards Sofia. The words just slipped in his tongue!
"Yeah, yeah, but you still said sorry! What a miracle! HAHAHA" his companions shrugged and looked at the other students walking. Their laughter grew louder and louder.
"How hard is it to agree with my request? How could they have such a lame principle! Not playing games on school grounds? Which planet did they come from for having a ridiculous rule like that?" Ash consequently expressed his thoughts. He blamed Sofia for intervening in his discussion with Claire. In his mind, if Sofia did not meddle with his business, he would not also grab her in the arm.
"I agree! It was pretty lame! Anyway Ash, there was no way that girl would complain. Look, no one had called you to go to the guidance office," one of them consoled him.
"Who wants to mess up with the Martinez clan? Chill, no one will complain about your action, Ash!"
While these six students were immersed in the same loop of discussion, a figure walked towards their bench.
"That boy that had almost been expelled is approaching us," one of them was quick to notice Stephen's figure. Despite their arrogance towards other students, they were actually frightened by Stephen for they knew his history in school. He just doesn't compromise to things that he dislikes.
"Hey, Stephen! Wazzup man!" Ash greeted when Stephen's figure was few feet away from them. He pretended to act cool but all of them were actually tensed.
"Martinez, you owe someone an arm," Stephen muttered. His voice was deep and threatening.
As he closed their distance, Ash winced in pain while Stephen grabbed him out from his seat and twisted his arm. The cracking sound of the bone made the other student almost fainted.
Ash had no time to process what transpired to him. He already felt the excruciating pain. In fact, there is someone who would dare to get even with him. It just did not came up the man in their mind… not until he approached them!
"What the hell, man! Why did you attack our friend?" Ash's companions took their courage and asked Stephen. But the man did not even turned around. He started walking like he had done nothing to them.
"Hey, shhh! He is that marksman user in their squad," another companion noted.
"He is?" Ash questioned. He was too focused on Claire's gameplay during the tournament and none of them really expected Stephen to be in the Chronos squad.
"Yes! Ahh! I forgot about it too. I should have reminded you guys earlier!" another student said.
"Forget about it," Ash snarled and sprinted towards the school clinic. His companions followed his lead reluctantly.
The school nurse was completely startled when the six students entered the clinic.
"What happened? Is this some kind of student activity to hurt their arm now?" the nurse asked and quickly examined the shoulder of Ash.
"AHHH!!! That frickin hurts!" Ash burst into a painful scream when the nurse tried to move his arm upwards.
Hearing the pain of agony, the expression of the nurse turned dark. "You have completely dislocated some bone here. Tell me what happened! This is serious!"
No one responded from the students. They just looked at one another and remained silent.
These boys clearly had no guts of speaking even the name of Stephen to the nurse. They were afraid that he would hunt them down and also punished them.
"I fall on the bench. It was an accident," Ash also made an alibi.
"I'll call for an ambulance to you so that the hospital would x-ray your arm. Just wait right here," the nurse hastily took her telephone and requested an ambulance.
"I will call your parents too, young man," the nurse informed him. She was not buying the boy's alibi but seeing how determined he looked despite the pain in his arm, the nurse did not press them further.
Mrs. Martinez arrived several minutes after the nurse told her the incident of his son.
"Ash! Ash! What happened?" the mother questioned.
"I just slipped and fall on the bench, mom! Ahh… I dislocated my arm and it's so painful!" Ash complained.
"Okay, okay, your dad will be here soon. And the nurse told me that there will be an ambulance on the way here," Mrs. Martinez patted her son's head a few times, consoling him of his injury. "Your friends can go back to their classes," she added.
The other male student did not argue and went their way towards their classroom.
"Ahh! What if that mad Stephen would come after us too?" one of them paused his moment and asked the possibility.
"We did not do anything to that woman! There is no reason for him to hunt us on the school grounds! It was only Ash who grabbed that girl!!!" one student firmly guessed.
As soon as they arrived at their classroom, they maintained their head lowered and sat at the back row of the seats.
All of them tried to ignore their fear of Stephen. They silently prayed that the man would be reasonable to them.
When Stephen entered the room, the entire corner went into a dead silence. They were both seniors and share the same class. So, the group shivered and docked their head below their desk.
Meanwhile, Stephen sat on the chair properly. Usually, he would slump his body and sleep on the desk. But starting the time that Sofia told them to sit straight, her voice would quickly ring on his head scolding him not to slouch.
None of the students also congratulated him. It was evident that his classmates were all frightened by Stephen.
When their teacher arrived, the tense atmosphere around their classroom slowly returned to normal.
"What happened to Ash? Why is he not here?" a small girl questioned to the regular companions of Ash Martinez.
"Uhhm… Ash fell off the bench and he will be recuperating for weeks maybe. It's not yet certain as to what degree he injured his arm. He'll be in the hospital," the student with messy hair stated.
