Leave Me Alone, Heroines!-243 Chapter 243

Chapter 243- School Ceremony (Part 1)

"This is the boy's dormitory and this is the girl's dormitory. They have a soul barrier between them so be assured that there will be no threat for anyone of you." The guard said as he showed them multiple places in the area.

It was quite amazing to see the cheer care for detail in everything. That goes to show why this academy was the goal for any ambitious young person.

"This is the end of our tour. You can get inside and show the receptionist your invitation letter, she will deal with everything else."

Acht nodded his head and walked away to the boy's dormitory. Mia and Tania also walked to the girl's dormitory while Leislet and Scarlett left for somewhere else.

"Excuse me, I am here to get my keys to my room."

The receptionist kept looking at Acht silently for a good 10 seconds without saying anything. Acht tilted his head before he waved his hand in front of her eyes to wake her up.

"Oi, are you ok?"

"Y-Y-Yes… Your keys, right? My deepest apologies. Let me check your letter please." She stuttered with a blush as she asked for the letter.

Acht ignored her reaction completely. He had seen way too many girls blushing when seeing him and he grew apathetic to it. Good looks are in the end merely a facade that hides what's inside.

The woman checked the letter thoroughly and then pulled out a pen and wrote something secretly before she put it inside the letter and handed it back.

"Here are the keys and welcome to Soul Academy." She added with a smile that had a mysterious charm behind it.

Acht then walked away and when he reached the elevator, he opened the letter and checked the inside, he found a piece of paper tucked in the left side of the letter. He pulled it out and read the content.

"'Here is my number, call me.' and a heart emoji, huh?" He muttered before he crushed the piece of paper and threw it in his spatial ring.

"Who knows, that receptionist might come in handy at some point in time."

After reaching his floor, he walked to his room in the empty corridor. Students were still not there and most of them had to take the test so that was understandable.𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

"They even put my name on the door."

He opened the door and walked inside. It was way too spacious to be called a 'room'... More like a luxurious apartment.

He took a look around and then settled down in his bedroom. There were still a few hours before the entrance ceremony so he could rest for a while as he waits.

So, with that in mind, Acht closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Then, a few seconds later, his eyes opened again quickly, and looked around. He didn't know why he woke up like this but he was sure that it wasn't something normal at all.

"Where… Am I?" He asked himself as he looked around. It was indeed the bedroom he slept in but it was very different than the normal one.

It was dark, and shadowy with an ominous feeling that made him feel tense and uncomfortable. He took a few deep breaths and stood up before walking out of the room warily.

The outside was also empty and dark as if it was suddenly night and no lights were lit. He then walked down to the reception lounge in search of any person.

'What is going on?' He thought to himself.

He had already considered the possibility of this being a dream but it felt so unbelievably real that he could only think of other possibilities.

'Maybe it is a lucid dream after all. I will search for anyone anyway.'

He went out into the streets and started walking toward the girls' dormitory. He couldn't sense any presence including that of Leislet, Scarlett, Tania, and Mia. They all vanished.

When he entered the building, he walked up the stairs silently. The reason for that is that he finally felt some kind of presence in the building. It was faint but he could locate it easily.

When he reached the 4th floor, he took a peek at the corridor and saw a shadow standing in the middle of the corridor and facing the wall. Acht squinted his eyes and silently waited for the shadow to turn around or do anything.

After exactly one minute, the shadow turned around and revealed its face.

"No features?"

"Hehehehehe…" The shadow then started giggling sinisterly.

The laugh alone made Acht feel threatened more than ever. However, he didn't try to retreat and kept watching it in total silence.

After laughing for a bit, the figure started walking somewhere. The room it walked to was number 254 with a familiar name on it.

'Tania's room?' He thought.

The shadow entered inside and closed the door. Acht pondered over whether he should follow it inside or not but in the end decided to walk out and enter the room.

The door opened slowly and he took a peek inside.

The only thing he could hear from inside was the sound of a rope moving left and right. His eyes examined the room and fell on a particular silhouette hanging from the ceiling.

"Wha-"

*Squeak*

A girl was hanging from the ceiling with a rope tightly around her neck. Her limbs were hanging and her head was looking down.

Acht didn't lose his composure and immediately looked around.

'This is not real. Calm down. This isn't the real Tania.' He thought to himself and approached the girl slowly.

His steps were steady but also extremely tense. He then cut the rope and made the corpse fall down. He examined her face and it was indeed Tania who was supposedly 'dead'.

Her eyes were empty and hollow like that of a ghost and coupled with the dim room, it was a perfect picture to have nightmares for a few days.

'This isn't a good joke.' He clenched his teeth and stood up again. The girl had started disintegrating in front of him and turning into black liquid.

"This is one hell of a sick of a joke, you know?"

He said as he turned around to look at the shadowy figure behind him.

"Heheheheheheh."f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
