From MC's perspective:
A few days later,
My complexion returned to normal. I regained my strength as well. Fortunately, there was no damage to the foundation. The small coercion gave me a scare at that time.
But the next second, I thought about Manager Shaw's fate. His death has already been decided.
A few minutes later,
When I was observing my condition.
The old healer walked in.
"Looks like you are good to go now," He said with a smile.
"Yes, elder. And thanks for the treatment," I replied to him. If not for him, things could have gone worse.
The old healer shook his head before saying, "It's not only because of me. But your healing essence also played a role in your fast recovery."
Hearing that, I wasn't surprised. Because when I first regained control, I started practicing wood scripture.
Because of that, recovery time has shortened.
"And one more thing. I observed you are practicing a wild method. Which makes your skeleton red."
"I can tell it's a bone method. But I don't know if it's good or bad," He said looking at Zack's eyes.
"Bone method," My heart was in turmoil. I didn't expect my injury would lead to the exposure of the secret.
He must have seen it during the treatment. This old man knows my 2 secrets. One is a healing element and the other one is a blood method.
My eyes flickered. "Why is he calling the bone method?" I said in my heart.
The old healer saw through his thoughts.
He said, "I know what you are thinking. But don't worry I won't tell anyone."
Hearing that I sighed inwardly. Since it's exposed. Nothing can be done right now.
Then I asked, "Elder, what do you mean by bone method?"
"It's a kind of body method. But it's more focused on bone. When I think of red energy. I can tell it's also focused on blood."
"It's a weird method. I haven't seen it before. But if not for the bone method. Your bones would have been crushed from the coercion," He said.
Hearing that I understood his thoughts. The blood method has an unknown origin. But it has saved my life many times even now.
After the old healer left the room, I decided to leave.
But before that one more person walked into the room.
"Looks like I have come at the right time," A voice reached my ears.
The person is none other than Carlos Kent.
"You have a lot of explaining to do," He said.
Hearing that I revealed a bitter smile on my face. Then I nodded at him.
We then went to the office building. When we arrived at the dean's office. The door opened automatically.
Seeing that both walked in. When I turned toward the dean's side. I saw her looking at me with a scrutinizing gaze.
I know she won't let me go without knowing everything. When I turned toward Carlos Kent.
He saw me with the same gaze as well.
Shaking my head, I sat opposite her.
Before they could speak. I started explaining to them.
10 minutes later,
Rebecca's expression eases down a little.
"So they have not only destroyed your former academy but also killed everyone," Rebecca asked.
Hearing that I nodded my head at her.
"It's a good kill," Carlos Kent said. He was surprised by such a backstory.
He added further, "But Manager Shaw was pretending. He didn't tell us about their fault."
Hearing that Rebecca's mood turned bad as well.
On the other hand, I was confused by their reaction.
Rebecca saw through Zack's thoughts.
She said, "The Hunter League Manager is bad. After getting away from here. He released a statement accusing us."
"Statement?" I said.
Then she explained further. Then I realized that guy was asking for a beating. He mentioned my name as a killer.
"He is also creating momentum. So that we can hand you over to him," Rebecca said.
"Not only that. He is asking for help from other academies. We don't know about their reactions yet."
"Only the person behind you can solve this problem," Carlos Kent said in a solemn tone.
"Yes, Zack. Ask him to come as soon as possible," Rebecca added.
Hearing that I furrowed my eyebrows. I know that Jonathan is here not in the inner post. He must be looking for other remnants.
If my guess is right, he will return after hearing the news. Manager Shaw is going to face death soon.
Meanwhile,
Jonathan is indeed investigating beyond the boundary. During the investigation, he didn't look at the messages.
The means of communication beyond the boundary is weak. If he wants to know, he has to do some work on it.
Jonathan didn't worry about Zack at all. But soon he got to learn from the local Hunter League branch.
He was following the remnants. But he didn't expect to hear the shocking news. A murderous intent flashes in his eyes.
He gave up the investigation and left the spot right away.
On the other hand, Manager Shaw has collected enough evidence. He is also leaving the Steel City to confront the Viper Academy.
He had tried to convince other academies to help. But strangely those academies rejected his request.
The Giant Tower Academy especially refused to listen to him. At first, the Giant Tower Academy was excited by his visit. But then they learned about the Viper Academy and Zack Lockwood.
Their attitude changed drastically. Their supreme elder doesn't want to offend the Viper Academy anymore.
The same thing happened with the Eclipse Academy. They have just lost their Supreme Elder. They don't want to cause further problems.
At that time Manager Shaw thought they had been coerced by the Army Federation. Only the Federation has the power to shut them up.
When it comes to other academies. They have naturally rejected the proposal as well. They don't have bad relations with Viper Academy.
Especially after knowing that Hunter League has lost one member. It's not like heavy damage that has been inflicted on their foundation.
So they don't want to offend Viper Academy for this reason.
