《The Queen of School》
Tyndall Quantic Soren
Tyndall Quantic Soren is a school for people with special powers, so they could learn to control them and to find possible positions on the secret side of the society of superhumans. The school is also known as "The Black and White school" since it is an elitist school, but also the acceptance requirements are really low, so if you have superhuman abilities you are eligible to enter but to get to the higher courses is absurdly difficult.
This institution has a really peculiar educational program. "They are a school focused on the sport and physical activities". Their educational system is based on the results they get in one of the two entrance examination:
>This is the exam that all the students take.
since:
-Is the easiest one
-Doesn''t matter if you get a 1 in score you will stay in the school
-You can take it in group
>This exam only exist because they have to have that kind of exam so they could call themselves a school, but almost nobody takes it.
since:
-It is the most complex and complicated exam in all the country
-To stay in the school you have to get at least 70
-Of all the people that dare to take it the exam only one person has been able to pass it
-Even if you pass it you would have the lowest place in the school
The division of the students is based on the social roles of a monarchy:
- Better known as the Commoners
- This group is the ones that got the worst grades in the physical exam or passed the written exam, but there has not been anyone to pass it until now, so they forgot about that.
- The class doesn''t have any kind of privileges and have no access to the cafeteria nor the dormitories
- The classes are extremely simple
- The last place of the class takes the least liked job of the school and they are prohibited from leaving their job during school hours.

- Known as the Knights
- This class obtained not very good grades but better than the F class
- The group have the privilege of staying in the dorms but in the oldest building and id only one big room for all the students
- The classes are simple
- The Barons
- This class got grades around the 60s in the physical exam
- In this class, you get a better room, fewer people per room, divided by gender, and also they have limited access to the cafeteria
- The classes are average
- The Earls
- This class got grades around the 70s in the physical exam
- This class get better rooms than the "Barons", only four people per room, and less limited access to the cafeteria
- The classes are a little above average
- The Dukes
- This class got grades around the 80s in the physical exam
- This class get a bedroom for three people, better installations, and freely access to the cafeteria and to the majority of the menus
- The classes are complicated
- The Princes
- This class got grades around the 90s in the physical exam
- This class gets a bedroom for two people, the rooms are like a five-star hotel, also they have complete access to the cafeteria and the menus
- The classes are advanced
- The Kings
- Since the beginning of the school, ir has been occupied only by boys
- This class is only to the ones that got a perfect score in the physical exam
- This group has a dormitory for the class, and a one person room; also, they have their own cafeteria that is inside a greenhouse overlooking a lake. The food is made by professional chefs from all around the world
- The classes are extremely difficult
~~~~~~~~~
There are two for a student to get a better way of life:
- Swear loyalty and do whatever a higher class student says.
- IF you are the first place in your class you have the opportunity to take an exam that if you pass it, you can ente4r the next class the next semester, but at the last place of that class.
However, the students always chose the first one since it is easiest one.

The Beginning of the School Year
Narrator POV
~~~~~~~~~
-Ha~a, It''s not my fault that people want to fight with me-
A girl with long black hair and messy clothes is walking up a hill with a bag in her back.
-Well, anyone would pile up stress if they have to transfer like a hundred times in three years because of her mother''s work. But to be in a school with dormitories, and to be threatened with that if I was expelled from this school, she would disown me. Well even if I made a promise with my Dad to go to this school, my mom went too far this time by changing her residence without telling me where she is now living. The only good this about this is that this school has the biggest library in the world.-
Jason Corvus a girl that usually gets involved in fights was complaining to herself.
-However, who in the world build a school on top of a hill nowadays? Well, it IS a school based on physical activities, but still...-
At the top of that huge hill that was 5 miles away from the nearest city, was a hilariously big building. Standing proud like an ancient mountain, majestic and immovable.
-What the he.....-
She could not even finish the sentence by the impact that the building cause her. The school looked like a castle from the medieval times. Jason could not believe what she was seeing and turn around. Yeah, the city was there, far but there, so how in the world could there be so much difference in the atmosphere compared to the bottom of the hill.
-Ahaha...- Jason let out a fake laugh. She was expecting something extravagant based in the place where she took the entrance exam, but she never not even in her wildest dreams thought the school would be like that. What impressed her was the difference in the ambient just a few yards away.
-I don''t have a good feeling about this school for some reason.-
Enormous gates made out of dedicated crafted metal waited Infront if her. Guarding the entrance were two giant rock dragons so real that they seem as if they would move the next instant.
-Wait a minute...are they really stone?- When Jason reached her hand to touch the dragon that was nearest to her, she heard the gate slowly opening by itself.
-Well, that''s cool, but won''t it be better to leave them open when they know students would come?-
Jason began to walk, walk, and walk until... -Just where is the school?! I have been walking for half an hour and I still can can''t see the building!-
After walking for an hour and a half she finally saw the school building, and she almost kowtows and thanked God, but she suddenly remembered something and stood up. At the exact same time, a car passed beside her, and it seemed like if the asphalt was soil since when the car passed Jason ended covered in a dust cloud. She heard something like a ridiculing laugh.The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
-Son of a...wait what if she was a girl, but in that case, it would be a bigger offense to curse her by calling her by the other gender since it would seem as she is so ugly that she doesn''t seem a girl, but if it was a boy...-
While Jason was thinking about a stupid topic, the entrance of the main building of Tyndall Quantic S?ren high school began to be full of students checking the big list that was in front of the building since it stated their rank in the school. There was laughs, cries, and shock everywhere.
When Jason finally arrived at the main building the euphoria was still going. But when she step for the first time inside the school she felt as if she crossed a thin layer of skin. -What was that? Was that a barrier?- She turned around extended her hand and as she predicted there was the barrier.
It was cool, but after a couple of seconds, it became boring, so she began to walk in the direction to the list.
-It may be because we are in a desolate place, but the smell of nature is way stronger than in any place I have been before. I like that~??-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The barrier protecting Tyndall Quantic S?ren was a special one. It was designed to be able to break the first limiter that the people that come to the school put on themselves consciously or unconsciously.
When Jason crossed the barrier it also broke her first limiter.
Random Student A POV****
-Hello world, I am Random Student A since the author is too lazy to think of a name for me??- said zogzigzi odyzkvz.
-He???...W..Wait! I retract I will much appreciate if you return my name to Random Student instead of only random letters. Can you please???- said Random Student A.
Fuuu~ That was a close one. The great me almost ends with a more random and unpronounceable name.
Well, long story short I am a person that you can call an existence near perfection, so I am 100% sure that I was admitted to this school.
Now you may think that my standards are low if there are any, but to that, the only thing I have to say is that:
I. CARE. AN. ATOM. ABOUT. YOUR. OPINION.
Well leaving that aside, I left early from home to be able to see my great name on the roster of a classroom. That was the plan, but...
-Re...Reserve...student.....Eh? There might be a mistake somewhere. Yeah, that''s it. It is a mistake. Fuu~ that scared me.-
While I move away from the roster and was trying to escape really I saw her.
At first, she looked somewhat scary, but when she began to enter the barrier and her limiter was being open her hair was turning white as it crossed it. The aura around it turned around 380¡ã. She emitted a small glow all over her body. Her skin was porcelain white so white that in another person would look like they put too much powder, but on her looked so natural and beautiful. Her eyes of a red intense that looked more beautiful than the most expensive rubies, and contrasted so well with her white skin. And with each step, she took flowers and plants began to grow.
She looked so sacred and pure as if a fairy of the ninth heaven free of mundane desires.
And that was the first time I saw her.
*****
W..Wait! You can''t end it there. What about me?! I''m sure everyone wants to know what happened to me, right?!
Right?!!!
********
And that was what happened when Jason entered the school, but little did she know that her new appearance would cause a lot of commotion later on....
********
-Wait! D....Don''t ignore me!! Please!!??-
Results
Jason began to feel that everyone was looking her way and felt a little awkward since she always was evaded.
In her previous school she was always involved in fights, but don''t take it as if she was the one that begins them.
Well, long story short she became the school ruler and everyone feared her, so now that everyone is looking at her, she cannot help but feel weird.
-Do I have something on my face or what?- Jason could not hold the urge to do the cliche scene of touching her face after a lot of people were looking at her.
But before she even could touch her face...-What the heck?! What happened to my hand? It''s so silky and soft- At the same time she seemed to understand something and hurriedly fetched her hair, and when she saw that her hair was moonlight white instead of the normal obsidian black, she escaped from there and went to hide in the forest that coincidentally was nearby.
-Ok, I need to calm myself first. Remember what could have made you release your limiter. Think. Think me, think!....Ah! The only out of the normal was the barrier that was protecting the school, but it doesn''t have that kind or ability....Right?-
If Jason had read the student manual, she would have known that the barrier, in reality, it have the ability to do so, but as a typical lazy student, she did not even hold it for more than five consecutive minutes.
Jason began to suspect that something was off, so she grabbed the manual that she has in her belongings and began to read it seriously.
-You have to be kidding me?! Something so important should be said in person instead of only putting it on a book that the student might not even read. Fuu~n Ah that scared me to the fifth hell. I thought that I have lost control of my powers-Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings.
Having relaxed Jason got out of the forest, and she finally made her way toward the roster, and as expected she got the last place of the "F" class, but in her face, a trace of pain or deception could not be seen. It was as if she didn''t care at all.
As the last place of the school, she needed to go to the teacher''s room to get her designed job. People kept looking at her, but since she already knows the reason why she preferred to ignore them.
When she was Infront of the room, she first knocked the door and then said - Jason Corvus, first year, class "F", last place. I am here to receive my job- then she opened the door, and what she saw were clear glances of disgust and feelings of superiority.
-Ugh. Go here and don''t bother me anymore- A teacher tossed her a paper as if she was afraid to even touch her. It would be a lie to say that Jason did not feel anything, but she didn''t want to cause problems so soon, so she held it in.
-Understood, but I only have a question because I didn''t see it in the student manual, but where is the dormitory for the "F" class?-
As if it was the joke of the century all the teachers present began to laugh uncontrollably. - Hahahaha...You. It''s the honor to be able to come to a school like this and to be able to be in the vicinity of people like us. People with REAL potential and power, trash- As if he was not a teacher one male in the room said that to Jason making a face as if the most filthy thing in the world was in front of him at that moment.
Veins began to pop in Jason''s forehead and her nails have long ago perforated her hand. - Excuse me- With those two words Jason left the room without forgetting to slam the door.
-Great, jut what I needed at this time!! Now I need to find a place where to stay during my stay in the school- Jason was pretty pissed at that time, and it was pretty visible since all the vegetation around her began to go berserk. The trees began to swinging from one side to the other, and the temperature seemed to drop a couple of degrees.
-Otto, I almost lost control. That was a close one. I need to relax, relax~. Well, let''s go and see where my working place for the next four years is going to be- As if all that happened before was an illusion, a smile bloomed on her face, and she began to hurry in the direction the paper noted.
Fortunately, Jason did not encounter any kind of obstacles on here way there, but the place where she was going to work from now on made her jaw drop.
- Isn''t this a library?
Clich茅
Have you ever seen an old horror movie where the setting is a haunted mansion? Well, yup. That''s pretty much how the "library" looked like. The death trees, the antique looking house, the ravens flying around, the miasma, the thunder...
-WAIT!! Thunder?! Where in hell did that came from? It''s supposed to be 8:00 am on the morning of a sunny day. Wait a minute why does it look like here is night? Since when the scenery was like that?-
I think I spenttoo much time trying to cool down, well whatever. Returning to the haun...ejem I mean the library. -The only thing missing in the scenery is a creepy sign saying "KEEP OUT" or some...Wait I talked too fast. There is a sign. Oh look it is even made with blood-
This is exactly out of a horror movie; it is kind of weird. -But who I am lying too. This is so fucking interesting-
As a good character of a horror movie I totally ignored the signs that told me to return, and that I could die if I were to keep going. The atmosphere was pretty much to my liking.
I arrived at the entrance of the building and as expected the creaking sounds of the old wood was really loud. The two big old wooden doors looked well... old. I pushed the doors open and took a step inside.
*step*step*step*
I was expectant to the thing that was going to happennext, but -Eh?! WAIT!! Why did the door not close by itself?! ARE YOU EVEN FUCKING TRYING?!- If you ask why I am so pissed is because a basic element of a haunted house was taken out. Won''t you be mad if you receive a burger without the patty of meat? Well, I am that pissed right now.
-Ghost or whatever that is inhabitingthis building try a little more, will ya? If you are going to have that kind of sceneryand making me expect something to happen at least have the decency to do it. Do your job will ya?-
~~~
If a ghost were to hear what Jason just said they would be glad they are I dead because if they were to resurrect, they would die again by blood loss.
~~~
It was pretty common on the inside. You could say the stereotypicalabandoned house. A once-white-now-gray fabric covering the once-usable furniture; it seems to be a pretty old building since from the walls kerosene lamps were hanging. The weirdest thing was thatthere were not any pictures of people, kinda of a letdown, but still, the atmosphere was morosely good. All the doors were locked, I know because I tried to opened them. Finally, at the end of the hall, one door was open, I entered, and it was like a kind of storage. Oh, and if you ask why there are no books if this is supposed to be a library, well, I would also want to know!
-OH.MY.GOD. Is that what I think it is?- In a corner of the room was a trunk that was totally sealed with chains. -If I were to follow common sense I should run far, far away from here when I see this signal, but since the setting is good let''s go with Hollywood''s common sense. Usually, there the key for the lock should be near it, but I would need to search for it...fuck it- the chain was not that resistant anyways. It was old and rusty, so only with a bit of force, the chain gave up.This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
When I opened the trunk, the only thing that I found was unsurprisingly a book that was covered with paper full of a language that was incomprehensible, but magically the world was translated into my brain
For the one how sinned
and the others wronged
sealed he got
but the others never forgot.
To the ones he gave
he would depend
if freedom he wants
help he should ask.
the one to the rescue will come
but from the others won''t want
Enki free would be seen
and to the one, curses would arrive.
-So...basically if I unwrap this book and free this Enki I would be cursed by the gods. Usually is a demon the one that is sealed...-
*rip*rip*rip
And nothing happened; I waited a couple of seconds when I suddenly had an idea. I bit my finger and a drop of my blood fell on top of the pages, at the same moment I felt a little pain in my arm, and when I looked a mark was there. -Wa..well, at least it looks cool- Meanwhile the book shined, opened by itself, and it selflessly began to narrate the story of why the God Enki got sealed. Long story short, it was about Enki, the god of intelligence, crafts, mischief, water and creation, played a prank on the gods that they didn''t like and so he was sealed. As for what he did well even, I would not like it. Imagine to steal all the things that you use in your daily life and exchange them to the humans for offerings to him.
Then, it suddenly disappeared. -Oh~ here comes the big ones- One second, five seconds, ten seconds...-WHY IS NOTHING HAPPENING?!! Aren''t the Gods supposed to curse me?!- Just when I finish talking water that came out of nowhere began to form a ball in the air. The ball grew bigger and bigger until it popped and from within a man with light blue hair, and skin like the most precious pearl. When he opened his eyes they projected a turquoise light.
-Ok, the light show was pretty amazing, but who the hell are you? Oh yeah, you should be Enki- He was a total disrespectful deity (?) he totally ignored me when I was talking to him.
-W..Where I am? and how are you?- A voice that was as smooth as running water. Tsk, why does he look so perfect? I am sure he has a fatal flaw that would be very embarrassing.
Well, whatever, I will be stuck in here for four more years, so why don''t have a conversation partner. -Hello, my name is Jason Corvus, and welcome to the 21st Century. Short summary, the Mediterranean era is long gone, so that means now nobody venerates you, remember the prank you made to the other gods, well they sealed you for around 2556 years, we are in what is supposed to be the library, but I don''t see any book, but here we are. Any not so obvious questions?- I said as I looked at him. The impact could be seen in his face, well if you are sealed for 2500 years and then an stranger told you something like that you will freak out.
-....Well, actually I have a question.- He is not as affected as I thought. I can see that he is a god after all.
- What are your three sizes?-
Quest
Narrator POV
~~~~~~
Jason was in shock. After a couple of seconds, she recovered and was going to punch that pervert god, but...-I don''t recommend you to do that- Enki tried to stop her, but she ignored him and still punched.
*Dash*
But what her punch encountered was air or more specifically water. In Jason''s eyes surprise, could be seen, but the anger that she was feeling still didn''t disappear, so she tried to punch him again.
-You would not be able to touch me- Enki said mockingly with a grin in his face.
Jason''s POV
~~~~~
''You would not be able to touch me''
. . . ????
JUST BY HEARING HOW HE SAID IT AND THAT STUPID GRIN IS ENOUGH TO MAKE ME LOSE MY MIND -Are you daring me?!- Oh, if you are doing it, you would end up losing.
-Eh? What are you talking about? What I¡¯m telling you is that you will not be able to punch me since I am not truly here- What is with his guy and his face was saying that that was common sense. But wait what did he just say....
-What areyou talking about? Oh, and please don''t say something like that ¡®since I am a God¡¯ or things like that- His face was kind of mischievous when I asked him what he was talking about, and when I told him to not create a lie about I being unable to touch him had something to do with him being a God, he seemed like a kid that had been caught red handed.
-Well yeah, you needed to be a special human to be able to unseal me so it¡¯s normal that you are able to read minds- He crossed his arms in front of his chest and made an arrogant pose. Is he a fool or is he only acting; if he is, he can win an Oscar while sleeping.
-You know that it was practically engraved on your face- When I told him that he scratched his neck while flushing and was saying things like ''Ehe thanks'' and ''I worked hard to get to this point'' and ridiculous things like that.
-Ok. Let''s stop with the sketch and answer my question. What do you means when you said that you are not here?- Enki looked at me with the same face as a kid would do to his parents when they told him that it was time to go just when he was having fun in a party.
-Well, you know that I am a God and all that. Right now, you can see me, but you can''t touch me because I don''t truly have a body- I don''t know why but the way he said it and his corporal language seemed as he was trying to explain it to a stupid person.
-So... You are basically a ghost- Now I get why this place has this kind of atmosphere.
-Not really. I am more of spectrum so...- -THAT IS THE SAME THING BUT WITH ANOTHER NAME!!- I could not help but tsukkomi that. -I know that. Who do you think I am? I am the god of knowledge, but spectrum sounded more awesome!- Seriously.
-Y''know I don''t care anymore. I was going to follow your tale since it looked interesting, but now I am bored. If you want to haunt this place, feel free to do so, but don''t hinder my work- It was fun in the beginning, but now I have to get back to work. This is supposed to be a library, but it¡¯s full of dust, and the shelves don''t even have books. Are they in the storage? I need to find them.Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
Just when I was about to leave to search for the books,Enki grabbedmy hand, well he tried -WAIT! At least hear my story- I just pointed to the book that selfishly talked by itself and continued to walk away -It is true that the book told you the story of how I got here, but the one that I want to tell you is the one of how you can help me take this fricking seal off-
-Eh? Didn''t I just take it out of the book, and now you are supposed to be free?- Did his head go wrong by being sealed for 2500 years or what?
-Oh no. The seal is still there. That is what I wanted to tell you. Since the seal is still there, my body is still sealed; therefore, I have no physical body- If the seal still there then what was the meaning of all the trunk, the chain, the warning, and all that.
-...Then all the things from before?-
-Ah, those were only for show. They were pretty impressive, right? I made some research and seems that in this era is pretty common for people to open a trunk if it is chained, and it¡¯s in the corner of an abandoned house- When he said that he was so confident that his nose rose to the moon.
-.... FOR GOD''S SAKE!! That only happens in the movies if a normal person that have seen a horror movie before sees a trunk chained in a haunted looking house they will run as their legs were on fire!- Isn''t he supposed to be the God of Intelligence? Where did he get that common sense, and the expression on his face as if he could not be more right.
-Yeah, for my sake help me- Enki said as he tried to grab my hand again, but just like before he couldn''t. -It''s actually pretty simple, you only need to go around the world to find two artifacts. With one I would recuperate my body, and with the other, I will have my powers once again- Somehow this sounds similar to a certain anime...
-And at the end, you will fulfill one of my wishes, and it would end up be wasted in reviving a certain character that always ends up dying. What are you Fei*ong?!- This is totally absurd.
-Wait! First, it is only two instead of seven; at least that bunch were not sadistic to that point, and second of all, you don''t have to search for my balls; you only need to find the relique of my body-
-THANKS! Now you ruined the childhood of millions of people even though I know that a certain audience already had that kind of thoughts- The way he said it was way too wrong. It was just wrong.
-Well, that does not matter. Youwillhelp me. It''s not like you have any other choice with that on your arm-
-My arm? What do I have on my arm?- When I looked at my arm, anarabesque tattoo was around my upper arm. Its lines seemed alive. Like vines of some kind. The design was exquisite, and in the middle, a light blue lotus was almost blooming.
-WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?- It could be really pretty, but getting a tattoo without consent is not something that you want to have since well, it will not go away in a lifetime.
-Don''t worry this is nothing bad. It is only the proof that you will help me take off the seals. No biggy- Enki said while he was leaning on the wall as if he just said the most unimportant thing in the world.
-Wait a minute. Wait a fucking minute. I already told you that I was not going to help you, so take this thing immediately- Who does he think he is to force me to help him in going around the world searching for I don''t know what. I have more important things to do right now.
-Sorry, but I cannot take it. It was not me the one that made the rules. The other Gods made them. I know that it will come off when you find my second seal. If you want to complain to someone complain to them. It was totally not my idea-
-Y''know, now I really want to help you find your body, so I can beat the shit out of you- I said as I popped my Knuckles, and my expression could have been a little scary since Enki, who was arrogant a while ago was slowly retreating with his porcelain face without a hint of color, but only a little.
-¡-
Euphemism
-W..Well if you help me I..I don''t mind a little pain- What is wrong with his mind? And what inhell is he blushing for?!
-You say that you are the god of intelligence, and I don''t know what, but you can distinguish the sarcasm in my voice- I think that the disdain could be clearly seen in my speech, but when I look at him and see him with that stupid look on him. I have no idea if he is faking it, or he is truly dumb.
-I have a question to ask you first. If I help you, and I am unable to find your "reliques" will this tattoo do something to me? You know that I am here since I got the last place in the whole school, right?- It would be a pain in my laziness if I HAD to help him, but if this thing endangers my existencethat would be no joke.
-Eh? Ah! the mark in your arm. Oh, that is totally harmless. If you are unable to find it nothing will happen and it will only appear as a decoration, but in the case that you are able to find my body and powers, it would allow me to be able to change your fate by fulfilling one of your wishes. Cool right?- He said that in a totally relaxed manner, and at the end he even puffed his chest, and raised his chin. I don''t know if it''s me or his nose grew to be a mile long.
-....If this thing would do nothing bad to me, then why would I want to help you-
When I said that Enki''s jaw opened as if he just realized that what he told me gave me a reason to refuse his plea. Truth to be told, it was a pretty funny face not for nothing he is the god of mischievousness.
-Well, if you excuse me I need to find where are all the books and the shelves and rearrange them. You can roam around the library for what I care, but only one thing. Under no circumstancedo you dare to disturb me as you might have experienced early I can have a pretty bad temperament.Well, Cya- I said while leaning a little over him to make my point clear, then I turned around and waved my hand to him. But seriously where are the books. While I was talking with Enki I was searching throughout all the house, but I could not find even a piece of paper in the whole house. Is this really a library? Now what I am going to do when I get bored?
When I walked 10 or so steps, Enki finally woke up from his shock and appeared in front of me his face had an unnaturalseriousness in it.
-This is your last chance. I offer you a deal. If you help me recover my anterior status I will tell you where the book, but if you don''t, then...-
- . . . Then what?-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Narrator POV
****************
The sound disappeared. It was like there was deprived of it, to begin with. The temperature dropped drastically, but Raven seemed as she did not notice it at all. Her eyes were focused on Enki''s and did not move from there. Even Enki as a God began to feel somethingthat he had not felt in a long time, fear.Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.
-...Let me tell you something. The thing that I hate the most, other than following orders, is to be threatened, and you just did that. You think that you are invincible since you have no physical body, but let me tell you this, for the entire world you could be totally invisible, but if I want you dead there is nothing that can stop me from seeing you breathe your last breath- Her voice was the same as freezing point. With every word that left her lips a dreadful aura began to create surrounding her and Enki.
-Eh?-
-Oh, no no no. How can you twist my words to that point? I just wanted to make an equal deal- Enki did not know why, but he began to panic. He was sure that if he were to be alive beads of sweat the size of beans would be dripping in his forehead. That was how much pressure he was under.
-Seems that even in the ancient times there were euphemism, well if we take into account that you are the God of Knowledge, there is nothing wrong that you know how to manipulate the way you speak- Her face was devoid of any emotion, but her eyes were full of killing intent.
-And since I don''t think that words would convey message I would need to use a batter way of communication- Raven said as her hand reached her neck where a necklace with the shape of a waning moon was hanging.
Seeing that Enki got even more nervous. He did not know why, but he knew that if she reached that necklace bad thing would happen.
-WAIT! You can''t, no you must not hurt me!- Enki said just before Raven touched the necklace. Raven''s hand stopped, and her eyes fell of his.
-Why I mustn''t? Or is it that you are ordering me?- Raven''s tone got even colder, so Enki in a struggle for survival said -It''s not like that. Let me finish first. I am telling you that you mustn''t hurt me since the library is me, and I am the library. If I disappeared, the library would too- Raven stopped all movement, then her hand slowly began to go down. Enki seeing this let out a sight.
-That is why I told you that you would not be able to find the books withoutmy help, so of you want the books..
- Enki did not finishedwhen he saw that the cold expression in Raven''sface was returning and that her hand was nearing her neck again.
-Seriously let me finish. It''s not what you think- letting out another sight he began to explain.
-Look around, do you see the conditions of the building? Well, in part is because I thought it would attract people, but the other reason it is like this is because I don''t have enough power to maintain it anymore. Like you told me it has been 5,000 years since I was sealed, so the remains of my power are running out. I was sealed in this place; hence, I can not leave, but if you form a contract with me I would be able to, and by doing so I might find a way to recover some of my power to get out some books for you, but I am not a simple library since I am the God of knowledge you just need to think of a book and I will have it- Enki explained in a single breath to try to convince Raven for doing something that could endanger his existence.
-Enki...- when hearing his name coming out of her mouth, he felt a not in his throat.
-Why did you say so earlier? Let''s do the contract or whatever. I promise you that I will make you have a physical body in less than four years!- Raven said happily. Her smile as blooming flowers was so different from her anterior expression that is seemed as if the Raven from a second ago was an illusion.
-...Oh, to make the contract is pretty simple. You just need to put some of your blood in the mark; furthermore, since you would be in a contract with me your affinity with water would increase drastically. You could even said that it is now a part of your body-
Even though that Enki was explaining, Raven didn''t seem to care as she bit her thumb finger untill blood was dripping from her finger and made an line going across the whole mark. When she finished, a light began to come out of the tattoo and evolved her completely. When the light ended her hair was no longer white, but a beautiful marine blue, and her eyes an exquisite turquoise.
Renovations
*Fuu~n*
-Finally the last one. Now, this can be called a library- Rows after rows of shelf''s full of books. Have you ever thought of what a magic library would look like? Well, that is the exact aspect of the actual library. If you look towards the end of the library, you would only be able to see the rows of shelves become one with the Horizon, and if you look up, you could see the floors unite to the infinity.
And if you are wondering how from a cliche-horror-movie-setting looking place to a magical library, it was not the big deal. It when like this:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
-Well, now this is eye catching- And embarrassing is what I wanted to say, but before I could say something Enki threw himself at me.
-Isn''t it pretty?! Now we look similar and everyone will know that you are in a contract with me!- As he said that I don''t know if it was because of blood loss (even thoughthat I only lost a little bit) but I could see that his nose risen to the Heavens.
Yeah, I don''tknow why but it pisses me off a little, but still, I need to do something with this. It is too eye-catching.
I am I
You are you
I am you, but you are not me
From the beginning, I was alone without you
You in time of help will become me
In time of peace, I am me
Dream until the chaoscomes to raiseyou from your sleep
Aquarius
After the spell, my hair began to lose color, and my eyes began to turn red again. In my wrist, anotherbracelet appeared, but this one is a turquoise color.
Seeing my transformation, Enki could not close his mouth. -Wh...What was that? Why you look exactly like you did before?-
It would look totally suspicious if out of nowhere there is a girl with blue hair [little did she know that she alreadymade one big show at the entrance day when her hair turned white].
-Bu..but if your hair and eye color represent our contract. You wouldn''tbe able to annul it-
I tried to explain what just happen to him so his spectralface could gain the little color that it could.
-I didn''t annul the contract, I just sealed that appearance since it would be prettystriking if people see that hair and eyes color when they already saw my white hair and red color- Hearing my explanation Enki breathed a sigh of relief.
-Well, now that everything is settled should, we began remodeling this wanna-be-hunted-house library. Classes begin in a week. We don''t have much time- I turned to look at Enki, but for some reason, he was avoiding eye contact.Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site.
-...What happened?-
-Seems like you didn''t pay me much attention when I told you that right now I don''t even have the power to keep this place to even look like a library- He said it with a voice so low that I was barely able to hear him.
-.......WHAT.THE.F**K.ARE.YOU.SAYING?- So that means that everything until now was a bluff...
-In this world, thereare few things that I hate, and you seem to know well how to piss me off. It seems like you truly hate living, don''t you?- My patiencewas running out pretty fast...
-N..no no no no you got it wrong. Everything that I said was the thu...-
-Seems that being sealed for 5000 years affected your brain. You just said that you don''t have the power to do it-
-Yeah, I said that- Before he could say any other thing I lost my calm, I reached for the pendant hanging around my neck and broke the chain. The moon-shaped pendant began to change form until a scythe appeared out of nowhere. It was absolutely black that absorbed the light surrounding it giving it a more surrealistic feeling. I put the blade at the back of his neck.
*gulp* -W...wait wait a minute plea..please!! I DO have the power to modify this building and to get any book that you can think of, but...- I pulled the blade nearer, so near that if I exert a little of force I might cut his neck since this scythe was not a simple weapon.
-IT''S JUST THAT AT THE MOMENT MY POWER IS TOO LOW, I DON''T THE NECESSARY POWER TO EVEN INVOKE A BOOK!!!!- He seemed to know his situation, so he rushed to explain himself.
-...Are you telling the truth?- After a period of silence, I asked.
-YES!!!! I am telling the truth, so if you want me to invoke any book or remodel this building, first we need to go for my power relique!- He looked so happy that tearswere falling from his eyes.
I retracted my scythe; it automatically turned again to the moon-shaped pendant, and it wrapped around my neck as if nothing happened.
-So if you had powers you will be able to do all the things you said?-
-Yes, that and more. Those were examples of what I am truly capable of, but right now, I am unable to use my powers-
-...so if you obtained power from another source will it still be useful to you?-
-Well, yeah. To some extent, it will, but I will be unable to use my more useful powers like manipulating water or combat-related- Mmmm I just got a good idea.
-Give me your hand- As I said to Enki, he seemed to be traumatized since he hid his hand as fast as I said to give it to me.
-I promise I will not hurt you- I said trying to calm him.
-For my soul- It was not until I said thatthat Enkiextended his hand, but he looked like a kid that wasthat was going to get a shot. It was kinda cute.
I ~~~~~~~
Giveth some of my power to thee
By breaking heaven law
A punishment must be given
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enki shined and he was now little more visible, but in my comparison, I was ghostly pale.
-What did you just do?- Enki looked me directly in the eyes, and I could see that he was totally serious.
*Huff*Huff* -It''s nothing much I just...I just gave you some of my power- Fuu~n that was more exhausting than I thought. It has been a long time since the last time that I shared part of it.
-But this doesn''t make sense! How is it that a mere human is able to lend some of their power to a God-
-Well, didn''t I just do it? It not the big deal. Let me rest a little bit and then we can begin to remodel the library- I sat down in a chair that I found near by.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
After a couple of minutes later, we began to organize the library having by result what the library looks like now.
Obviously, we did not put book by book. It was mostly me naming the names of books that I already read or want to read and Enki materializing them. Did you think that I would put book by book on each shelf of a fantasy-like library? If you did you are totally and absolutely crazy. Who would want to do that?
But like some kind of ceremony I put the last book on the shelf.
I found something interesting. Since I have a contract with Enki I am able to travel to whatever part of the library that I want, ban whoever I want, and they will not be able to enter. I truly did not expect that. That was an unexpected and well-received bonus.
Enki comes to me and looked like he was thinking about something. -What happened? In what are you thinking?-
Enki looks at me and tells me. -If I am already able to do what you wanted me to do, then when are you going to help me find the relique? You said that you were going to help me find them in this four years...-
I smirked. -Yeah, I said that I was going to find your reliques in the next four years, but did I said that I was going to go find them right now?-
-...- Sweet revenge. It is always better served hot.
