Chapter 48 Adara Dawn
Chapter 48 Adara Dawn
?Adara Dawn.
[Adara POV],
As I listened to the report given to me by my classmates, I couldn't help but recall how it all began.
It was a typical school outing for my schoolmates, where we would ride to our destination and return home before returning to school on the first day of the following week.
That was how it was supposed to be until the black sky with the golden timer appeared and everyone went unconscious.
I didn't know how long I had been unconscious, but when I finally awoke, I couldn't move.
I couldn't even open my eyes, and I felt wet and sticky all over, as if I were submerged in liquid.
I had the sensation that I was being encased by something.
I had to struggle for a while before I could move and leave the situation I was in.
When I finally opened my eyes, I saw a familiar-looking bus covered in plants in front of me.
In fact, everything around me was covered in plants and had signs of green life as far as my eyes could see.
I felt fear creeping up on me at this point, no matter how composed I was.
I initially assumed I had been kidnapped, which would have been normal given my identity, but the scene in front of me told me otherwise.
As my fear grew, I noticed something out of the corner of my eye.
It was a strange transparent crystal containing a person.
In fact, it was the first time I really paid attention to my surroundings.
All around me, I saw the same transparent crystal with people in it.
And inside these transparent crystals were my classmates who were on the field trip.
I gathered my courage and went to the transparent crystal near me to see what it was when I discovered that I also 'came out' of it because behind me was the same transparent crystal with a hole in it.
When I got close enough to the transparent crystal close to me, I found out that apart from having an unconscious person in it, there was also a strange blue liquid in it.
'Perhaps that's the reason am wet', I thought as i was about to continue observing the transparent crystal when I saw a crack in the middle on the crystal that was slowing expanding with the sounds of cracks accompanying it and the schoolmate in it moving a little, I was startled and took a step back.
When I heard the same cracking sounds on the other transparent crystals around me, I was confused and the fear in me that was already dying came back as I went far from the crystals as a whole.
I did not run away, I just stayed far away so I could observe.
Not everyone is like Ace.
It might even be possible with that curious behavior of his towards new things that he might observe these strange things that are happening up close.
When I thought of this, i calmed down a little and composed myself as I waited to see what would happen next calmly.
At least try to do so calmly.
Thankfully, nothing strange happened as I watched my schoolmates emerge from the transparent crystal.
Hmmm.....That's strange itself.
I also saw my guards in some of the crystals too with other unfamiliar people.
'T...t..they won't jump out and start attacking me right?'
Thankfully nothing like that happened.
Like me, immediately they opened their eyes after coming out of the crystal, they were clearly confused.
When my bodyguards spotted me, they quickly came to my side to guard me, same with the other schoolmate's guards.
Since we were on a school outing and there were nobles participating, we were only allowed to bring four guards.
The schoolmates that didn't bring felt that they didn't need it and some of them have never never had guards part of their normal life.
So lucky.
When I saw that everyone was still normal I was able to observe calmly but was interrupted later when someone address me.
"Princess Adara, what do you think is happening?" a male classmate asked as he looked at his surroundings curiously.
'Ugh, I hate that name', I thought.
"Princess?" the male classmate called out again.
When I heard him use the same term, I wanted to ignore him when I remembered a particular person who never cared about my identity.
Well, not like he ever cared for anyone's else identity.
Thinking of Ace, a smile came to my face subconsciously.
Looking at the male classmate who was still waiting for a reply patiently, I was about to reply, when a blue panel suddenly appeared in front of me giving me a fright.
Apart from me, I could see that everyone else had more or less the same reaction as they stared at the thin air like they were seeing something.
With this, I knew they were expressing the same thing as me.
I just don't know if it's the same thing we're seeing.
Suppressing the uneasiness in my heart, I looked at the panel in front of me.
....
[Species discovered on a newly awakened planet],
[Initiating Specie with the Primordial Chronicle],
[Specie Initiated],
[Updating Status....]
...
'What is this?' I thought, before the words on the panel changed into something else.
....
[Status],
[Name: Adara Dawn],
[Age: 17],
[Race: Human [Homo sapiens]],
[Level: 1],
[Job: None],
[Store: Locked],
[Title: None],
...
Before I could even understand what was going on, I heard a scream.
Startled, I quickly looked at the direction the scream came from and saw a cat with red eyes that was far bigger than a fully grown lion and in its mouth was the head of a dead schoolmate.
I don't who screamed but when it happened, everyone came back to their senses and my bodyguards beside me quickly pulled me and ran but after seeing this, the schoolmates behind madly followed us as the screams in the background increased.
I did not look back, but gritted my teeth and kept running.
I did nothing but just kept on running.
