Ch 10 An wistful person
I was at the academy infirmary treating my wounds , the nurse had given me some medications to treat my wounds.
I thanked the nurse and got up from my seat ,as I was walking around the corridor , I could see people talking , some people chilling with friends , it reminded me of the time I was in highschool at earth.
I asked myself few questions ,
"What am I even doing here. I dont belong here."
I was missing my family ,my mother ,my father,
I found them annoying in my previous life , but now when they are so far away I truly realise their value , and I probably can't possibly see them again. I am feeling sad , such a wistful person I am .
*Sigh*
I Sat down in a bench facing away to the great field of sun flowers , I felt jealous of the sunflowers , they bloom under the light , I also want to bloom and grow , tell my family how much I loved and cared about them , but thats impossible now. Only if I had gotten the chance to tell my family how much I loved them, I would be happy .
Some one had said "We never know the worth of water till the well is dry." It was the best quote suiting my current situation , I didnt cared about the bullying nor the beating.
Somewhere I felt left out in the place where I knew no one. No one who cares for me, absolutely no one to talk to. What is the point of living in this world where I know no one , I don't have anyone here. It reminded me of that poem.
"The sunflower does not choose to turn , It does not have a heart to burn.
It simply follows what it needs, Ignoring all the dying weeds.
I am the weed, I am the stone, The only thing that feels alone. I want to bloom, I want to say All the things I threw away.
But the sun has set, the field is still, And I am sitting against my will."
The sun was setting , it was an beautiful scene , every bug , animal , every family Would go home , be with their loved ones , alone would be that Vagabond that has no home , and no family to strive on.
"Hey you what are you doing here….why are you not going to your dorm!?"
A sound startled me , I looked at the way the sound came from , She was Alyssa our homeroom professor.
"Oh yeah…i was just seeing the sunset and admiring it's beauty."
I said with an calm voice , giving her an overexagerrated smile ,
She said ,
"I heard that you got beaten by an second year student"
I replied, " yeah miss he beat the Evasilles out of me" I joked at that moment , she looked at me with a subtle expression , she said
"Go to your room…tomorrow would be your skill tests "
I nodded and said
"Yes miss, I'll take my leave now."
"This kid is strange…he got bullied and hes smiling like a crazy person as if he had nothing to care for."
Alyssa thought,
***
I was in my dorm and I could see the student doing some kind of celebration, I could see
Them enjoying getting each other , they are unaware what is coming next , something big towards the academy , something that would change the empires order throughout and life of Rio and the others
I got to my room and got to sleep early. Tomorrow was an skill test , they would check our basic skill like , mana affinity , physical test etc .
I was in a distorted place , everything was complicated but I eventually figured it out that it might be a lucid dream , I could see a sea, a mountain , then suddenly everything started fast forwarding as if I was skipping time Then it stopped, a dead silence enveloped the place. Suddenly an shadowy figure could be seen, it was sitting facing away from me , I asked
"Where am i!?"
"Its your own dream"
The figure voice was so calm as if it had seen every calamity
"My own dream?."
I questioned,
"The time is ticking….only you can save them,dont just watch from the sidelines if you dont work, everyone will die…you can save them because you know how to. "
The mans aura started radiating , it was an cold feeling , feeling of fear I felt that time
I said "what do you mean?!"
"Dont do any foolish thing… think and do it properly "
The figure said ,
"But ho—"
As I was saying it I got thrown back to my physical sate where I was sleeping ,I got up and thought to myself
"Who was that…is he the reason I am here !!?"
In a trance I got to sleep again , and woke up at 7:00 am , I refreshed myself and got ready for the class.
***
"So Class, today is the day to ace the test"
Alyssa said , all the students said
"Yes miss !!"
I was seeing outside the window , everything felt anxious , I was getting anxious What that figure had said , save everyone ? Only I can? , why me , out of so many people why me ?
"Hey rio come here for a second"
I said ,
"Yes !?"
Rio said , looking at me with an confused expression
"I know you are strong , very strong to be
honest"
I said , calmly
"Whats your point ?." Rio asked
"Theres something big danger coming…dont ask me how…. you and others and me are not
safe"
"Meet me at the lunch time I would say everything"
I whispered to him ,
"Hey you two what are you doing there?"
Miss Alyssa said ,
"Nothing miss I was talking something bullshit to him…you can ask him if you want"
I replied smiling as a crazy person,
"Hey language!!!"
Miss alyssa shouted ,
"Oh sorry miss I didnt find any other word…relating that "
Rio thought ,
"Everyone says he is a dumbass , trash , but somehow he is unique and different. To be honest he is quite an interesting person "
