MY ANGELIC SYSTEM

Chapter 58 The Truth



"However, this very same balena came back today, and while the four of them were trying to escape, Kye got hurt by one of the balena abilities, and his teammates didn't manage to take him back with them," Madison looked at Kye's friends, only to see them all look blankly at her. The boys were still resisting the urge of lashing out at Kye's teammates, while the girls couldn't help but cry. "We already deployed a rescue team to search his whereabouts, but to no avail. I personally went there myself, but I couldn't find him either.

"So I would like to have one minute of silence for Kye Vermillion who had mostly died after being attacked by this balena," Kye was the only student who had died. The others mostly had injuries and were already treated. And even though he was only a level one, everyone agreed to do as Madison said. If what she said was indeed true, then Kye could be seen as the hero of his group. And for a level one to be the star of his group which was filled with high levels, it was something incredible.

Even high levels students who were listening to Madison's speech couldn't help but praise Kye for his courage.

So everyone didn't say anything for a minute.

During this time, Maria and John rolled their eyes, thinking that all this drama was unnecessary. Who cared about such trash? He didn't do anything from their point of view. He was only some lucky dude who managed to get on their team.

As for Suha, he didn't raise his head even for a second. From the moment he came back from Supi, to now, his face always looked toward the ground. Even when they had to come to Madison's side, Suha didn't raise his head because of how ashamed he was. It was their job to defend Kye. No, it was his job to defend him. Maria and John wouldn't have helped him anyway.

He was the strongest in the group, and he was proud of it. And yet, Kye has proven himself to be someone who he deemed stronger than himself. He had so much courage compared to him. Suha didn't even manage to take him back with them whereas he was sure that he could have done so if he had tried a little harder.

'I'm so sorry Kye. It should have been me in your stead,' Suha thought as memories of his childhood flashed back. He was only ten years old at that time, and he went outside to play with his friends to bully someone. Though, when he came back, his house was on fire with firefighters trying to extinguish it. He wouldn't forget this day since he had lost his two parents.

And to him, this situation was the same. If only he had been nicer to him at the beginning. If only he didn't act as coldly as he did when they met. Only because he was at a low level. And he couldn't help but feel dejected by that. Someone who was a minimum dear to him had been lost again. First his parents, and now Kye. They had just met a few days ago. But Kye was always nice to him, even though it was clear that he harbored coldness toward him at the beginning. He even thought about him as a little brother for one second.

Though, now all was gone.

Kye has died. He wasn't there anymore. He was gone. And Suha won't get the chance to apologize for his behavior.

The minute of silence had passed and everyone was then dismissed. They could now rest until next week when school will start again. Rest was necessary after three days in a row in the wild.

Though, while everyone went out of the gymnasium, some students stood. Yugo, Ven, Lidi, Enzo, and Sylvia. They hadn't moved one beat nor did their reactions change. The girls were still crying while the boys' hands began to bleed because of how tight their grips were. They still couldn't process that Kye had died. Never had they thought of such a possibility? Not even in their wildest dreams.

How could he die?

What did he do to die?

Wasn't he just an innocent cute little brother? What did he do for the world to take him away?

And because of that, their hatred and disbelief went to the only student who stayed there as well

Suha.

The latter guessed that the group was Kye's friends. They were the only ones with strong reactions among everyone, and an acquaintance wouldn't cry for an acquaintance. Though, he was greatly surprised to see such a familiar face.

Once Suha's parents died, he was taken care of by his mom's best friend who couldn't leave him alone. And this friend was someone quite high place in the world. Not at the same rank as the big families, but not that far away. So he met all those present a few times already during some galas organized for the high society.

So he walked slowly toward them, still with his head down, only to be pressured by an immense pull of gravity. He was then slowed down by Enzo, followed by a space prison by Yugo. The girls also looked at him, only to recognize him as well. The boys were too lost to think properly.

So Sylvia made a giant lotus appear under the point where all abilities were combined, before blooming, thus disabling all abilities at once. Though, it consumed quite a lot of energy to remove three abilities at once.

Suha was grateful for her help because he was at a finger's length to feel his body being crushed by so many strong abilities. And before the boys could turn toward Sylvia and question her about what she just did, the latter stood up and spoke.

"Suha, explain yourself," She asked with a cold tone, making to the boys clear that she was containing herself just enough to not attack Suha as well. "How can someone like you with such strong defensive ability ain't able to protect someone? Or was it a willing action on your part? Are you the one who killed Kye?" Tears began to flow down again as flowers bloom all around them, all harboring different colors. Red, blue, brown, and so on. All contained an element ready to be released at any time toward Suha.

"P-please Sylvia, don't do that," Suha knew this ability very well. It was what made her earn the nickname, 'ruthless maiden'. This ability like many others in her arsenal was specialized to make her enemy not catch their breath, even for a moment. And he didn't want to be the target of such ability. "I swear I tried to help him. He was always kind to me, even when I was clearly cold to him. We even began to chat with each other. But I couldn't do anything against the balena," Suha spoke very quickly, having a hard time under such pressure. Five people were ready to make him pay if he said something that displeased him. "As professor Madison said, Kye alone fought the balena during the first day. I mostly helped with sharpening his weapon. And after that, I was so impressed that I wanted to know him better. That's how I began hanging out with him, even though he looked dissatisfied with my interest in him.

"But the moment I tried to help him, my other teammates stopped me and took me with them to flee. And I couldn't move because of how shocked I was. K-Kye had a b-big hole in his stomach," He had a very hard time saying his last words. He still couldn't believe such a thing could happen to such a pure soul.

Hearing all he said, the boys wanted to lash out at him even more. But thankfully for Suha, there was still one sane person among the group.

Sylvia disabled her ability and stated coldly, "Then-... Then is it the fault of your other teammates?"

Suha felt a shiver down his spine and nodded. "Even though they weren't the ones who killed him, they clearly made his life hard. Even too much. Usually, high-level people don't care about low levels, exactly how I was at the beginning with Kye. But both of them seemed to harbor extreme hatred toward him.

"And before the exam could begin, professor Azul meet up with me, Maria, and John and asked us to make Kye's life hard. I refused and left, but they may be, or even surely plotted something else between them."
