Beast Evolution

Chapter 89 89 I'm Not Human

"Lily is anything wrong?"

"No I have something to tell you, I forgot to tell you when you got back, it totally slipped my mind," Lily said.

"Remember I told you about my mum"

"Yes, you said she was killed by a beast," Ray said.

"What if it was an infected beast," Lily said.

"an infected, how, wasn't that long ago?" Ray asked.

"Yes it was, but there is a possibility, maybe then the knights didn't know what happened to the beast and it never happened for a long time so they decided to bury it"

"But why didn't the beast continue attacking, I mean they waited a long time before attacking, why?"

"I came up with something, maybe they couldn't attack," Lily said.

"They couldn't attack... were they planning or what"

"I don't know but there is no reason for them to stay years without attacking if they were ready to attack," Lily said and Ray agreed with her.

"Lily I have something to tell you, please don't be angry," Ray said.

"Angry for what... wait are you leaving?" Lily asked quickly.

"I just wanted to tell you, before the first snow I have to be in the capital to do something"

"Is this about the dream you had, why must you go, we can tell the knights and leave it to them" Lily said.

"I have to go, I have something important to do there," Ray said.

"Ray why do you always act like this?" Lily said with a sad expression.

"Act how, I don't understand?"

"You always act childish since when I met you and remember you told me you are not from this world, I didn't believe you at first but it's becoming clear that you are truly not from this world"

"I was just joking when I said that," Ray told her.

"Really, you think I would believe that, okay who is the king?" Lily asked.

"How would I know the king" Ray said.

"Ray you don't have to lie to me, I also didn't believe it when you said you went to that forest to save a wolf, I know you didn't go there for a wolf," Lily said.

Ray couldn't say anything he just stood there looking at her.

"Do you fight and kill beasts for fun?" Lily asked.

"No" Ray answered.

"Then why do you keep doing dangerous things, first the infected wolves, next the infected boar, and then you ran off into a forest filled with unknown beasts why," Lily asked.

"Lily, can I tell you a secret?"

"Yes, what is it," Lily said.

"All these things I'm doing, I have a reason for them and you wouldn't believe it"

"What is it?" Lily asked.

"Promise me you won't tell anyone," Ray said.

"I won't, I promise," Lily said hoping Ray would explain everything to her.

"I'm actually not a human"

"What... what do you mean you are not a human"

"I'm not a human" Ray said again

"Ray I was thinking you would actually tell me the truth, this is the new lie you thought of" Lily shouted and stormed off.

"Lily, Lily" Ray called but she was very angry she didn't reply.

Ivan who was coming towards the dorm saw Lily walking toward him and decided to greet her but she didn't even look at his face.

"Is she angry, what is wrong?" Ivan said and continued walking till he saw Ray resting on the walls.

"Ray what happened to Lily, did you see her, she seems angry," Ivan said but Ray didn't answer him.

"Oh, did the two of you... never mind" Ivan quickly left Ray and went to him the room.

The students were now through with their breakfast and they returned to the training ground, all the classes separated and used different sides of the school ground.

The swords class were led to another building that was where their training would start, at the back of the building, training dolls, wooden swords, real swords were all there.

"Hello students"

"Hello sir" they all shouted before turning back to see who it was.

A knight stood there in normal clothing holding a wooden sword in his hands. He had black hair, chiselled face, and body, with a smile on his face.

"Hello, I'm Jake your instructor from today"

"Hello sir, nice to meet you" the students replied to him.

"So should we get to business or chat a little" Jake said.

The students all looked at themselves wondering why he was asking them, everyone would want to chat a little but that could be a trick so they all said down to business.

"You guys are so straight forward, I wanted to chat a little" Jake said.

"Then if you want to, let's chat a little before we start," one of the boys there said.

"Really, is that okay?" Jake asked the students.

"Y...Yes," the students answered weirdly wondering why he was speaking to them like they were friends.

"Okay, sit down," Jake said.

"I will start with your names," Jake said.

The students stood up one after the other and said their names out loud, along with why they joined the knight academy. Most of them just said random things like to protect the world, to make money, Ray just followed the flow and said to protect people.

"Okay guys, we should start now, we will start simple, I will select two people to spar, and then we'll all learn from them," Jake said.

"You and You, what rank are you?"

"I'm rank 17," one of them said.

? "I'm rank 31," the girl said.

Jake told the both of them to spar, a male and a female, the male was ranked 17 so it was obvious who would will the battle, but this wasn't about winning.

The both of them held their wooden swords tightly and faced each other while the other students watched the battle closely.

"Ready, fight" Jake announced and the two students swung into action.
