Chapter 239 One of the Four Colleagues
Serentenshin School. Seria and Zenon walked together, their feet hurried.
The two ran through the classrooms and saw students sitting and studying.
Seria ran past, oblivious to the classroom.
Zenon followed closely behind. The two headed toward the student council room.
After a while, they arrived at the student council room.
There was Sora, sitting comfortably in the student council room.
Seria opened the door and entered, pointing forward.
He pointed at Sora, who was sitting elegantly.
"When you're not studying, are you the president who likes to sleep?"
Zenon looked at Seria. "What are you doing?"
Sora nodded. "Excellent. I was just resting. Why are you here?"
Seria brought her finger back. "You don't seem to understand."
Sora tilted his head, his face showing a puzzled expression.
"What is it?"
Seria sat down. Zenon joined them.
Seria's expression was serious, indicating an important matter.
"Actually, the whole school fainted. You could even call it a blackout."
Sora was puzzled. "What do you mean? You're saying I was napping during the day, but that's not it?"
Seria held up two fingers, making a scissor-like shape, and moved them around.
"That's right... Your honorable chairman wants to go into the scissors room. Would you mind accompanying me?"
Sora leaned back in his chair. "Question: Why go to that place?"
Seria nodded. "This kind of situation could be called an incident. There's a high chance of things being stolen, so we should investigate."
"That's easy to understand. Everyone in the whole school fainted, so something must have happened. Makes sense."
Sora stood up and walked toward the door. "Follow me. I'll show you the increased security, plus the lack of permission." It's easy for anyone to interfere.
Seria stood up happily and followed Sora obediently.
Seraph had arrived at a new location, a newly designed house.
Seraph stood silently for a moment. The house in front of him was very different from its original appearance. It was two stories, and inside, it was bright enough that the light shone out.
This was a sign that someone was inside.
Seraph stood silently for a moment. The door opened, revealing a familiar woman.
Seraph's mother opened the door, seeing someone standing in front of the house.
Seraph's voice spoke. "Is something wrong?"
Seraph paused, as if she had encountered something. Seraph, a mother, looked at her son, who had been missing for so long.
Seraph smiled slightly. "Welcome home."
Seraph smiled slightly. "I'm back."
Seraph walked out and hugged Seraph like a mother waiting for her son to return.
Serin stopped smiling, her kind smile transforming into a devilish one, ready to burn everything with flames.
"Get ready. You know what's coming, right?"
Seraph remained silent. [Sigh… I've encountered so much danger, now I have to face this again?]
Seraph stared at Serin, who was hugging him tightly for a long time.
When he was satisfied, Serin grabbed Seraph's ear and dragged him into the house to punish him.
Time began to pass. Seria, along with Sora and Zenon, arrived at their destination.
The three of them arrived at their destination.
There was a pitch-black room illuminated by a green light, and a pair of magical scissors, green in color, wielding scissors half the size of a pair of scissors.
They were standing there, both of them emitting a dangerous energy, warning people not to approach.
There was a sign with a circle drawn in it.
The door was extremely sturdy, made of steel.
Sora stood looking at Seria. "I have permission to enter here." No modification of the Scissors' movements is allowed.
So, that's enough for now. Let's head back. It seems your prediction was wrong.
Seria stood there, staring. "Do you think there's anything valuable here? Something unguarded and extremely dangerous?"
Sora shook his head in denial. "No. There's a magical item that could create danger, and it's higher than that. I don't know of any.
If it's the headmaster's office, there might be."
Seria took a deep breath and held a finger up to his mouth, signaling to the two to be quiet.
Seria sighed. "Then let's go. It seems nothing's happened here. What a waste of time."
The headmasters will be here soon to investigate. Let's go, everyone.
A higher-level life energy detector will be used to examine this place. This time, we'll use a level six magical item.
I'm still wondering if it's really worth spending so much money to investigate this place."
The three of them left the place, leaving doubts in their wake. They walked hurriedly, searching for a hiding place.
Sora looked at Seria, wanting to ask why he was hiding.
Shortly, the door to the Scissors Room opened, revealing the shadow of an old man walking out.
It was an old man named Dante with long white hair and a scruffy dress.
This man had been stomped on the face by Seraph, who had run for help.
He had cooperated with the previous headmaster.
Dante walked out with a smile on his face. "Heh heh, those idiots, Master. If they investigate a little longer, they'll definitely know I'm hiding under this room.
If we don't hurry, the chances of being scrutinized a second time will greatly increase. I, Dante, will definitely survive."
Dante stopped walking, his expression, which should have been a playful smile, instantly turned into one of anger.
In front of the corridor, where there was only one path.
Three beautiful girls stood there. Seria smiled and waved. "Hey, who's this guy? Doesn't he look like something you've seen before?"
Seria didn't know.
Sora knew him. "The headmaster's former collaborator, the traitor."
He was this guy. Of the four collaborators, two were confirmed dead, but old Dante survived.
You could say he was the last one.
Seria nodded. "Another collaborator? Not three, but four. Interesting. I thought he was there. Inside the room."
Dante was confused. How did he know he was there?
"How do you know? That I've been hiding in this place for so long."
Seria twirled her fingers, thinking quickly. "It's not that difficult."
Seria pulled her eyes down, sticking her tongue out, teasing Dante.
"It's not that difficult. Someone close to the headmaster." You have to know about the Scissors Puppet.
So, you have to secretly set up some kind of trap to feed the information, preventing the magic scissors from working.
It's like the Scissors Puppet behind you.
This is the place that should be suitable for the former headmasters.
So, it's a good place to hide. At first, I thought I'd catch them, but no. The one who said this place should be investigated was me.
Dante began to prepare for the fight.
Seria's expression returned to normal. "It seems the teachers made a mistake, that's all."
Sora looked at Dante. "You're under arrest. Surrender, Master Dante."
Seria raised a hand to stop him. "Well, my prediction was correct. I wanted to say that, but it's completely irrelevant."
Dante spoke calmly.
"Can you let me go?"
"Okay." Seria was the one who agreed to say the word.
