45 Gathering Evidence (1/2)

”*Whistle* Wow… still as grand and gaudy as last time…”

It turns out Ryuji was right. The freaky app that appeared on Akira's and Ryuji's phone was the key to enter the palace. They massive castle looked the same as before.

However, just as Ryuji was about to open the door, Axel grabbed his hand and stopped him.

”What gives Axel?”

Releasing a sign, Axel said nothing and pointed towards the window. Confused, the two boys looked through the window and became pale. There were at least 10 suits of armour guarding the stair case infront of the door as well as two gold suits of armour with a dark red aura surrounding them.

Wiping off the cold sweat on his forehead, Ryuji softly said, ”The vent?”

”The vent.” Said Axel as he removed the vent cover before making his way inside.

Once everyone was inside the safe room, Akira suddenly said, ”Wait. Before we continue, I want to try and use that power again.”

Axel didn't allow him as he explained, ”Akira, waiting until we get into battle. You don't know if using your power will tire you out or not.”

Akira wanted to say something but ultimately kept quiet. He knew Axel was right and using his powers might just exhaust him, making him nothing more than a burden.

Suddenly, Axel smiled as he said, ”Don't think too much, Akira. With all the guards walking around in this place, you'll be able to test your power sooner rather than later.”

Akira showed a bitter smiled while he muttered, ”…I don't know if I should be happy about that or not.”

The group chuckled before slowly making their way forward. Ryuji actually had a thoroughly thought out plan. They would stop by the students whose training seemed more violent then the others and remember their face so they could ask about it in reality.

Other than that, Akira and Ryuji would ask some of the students some questions, to which they were more than happy to answer.

It seems that Axel's actions had brought about a change in how Kamoshida viewed his students. Instead of being too afraid to reach out for help, the students seemed more than willing to spill the beans on anything 'unethical' Kamoshida has done.

The boys were informed of multiple cases of Kamoshida's petty personality ruining the careers of raising sports stars. However, the thing that caused rage to boil inside all of them was the fact that Kamoshida had actually forced multiple girls on the female sports teams to send him dirty photos or even their used clothes and underwear.

Since the girls in the sports teams weren't found on this level, they couldn't get their side of the story.

When Ryuji suggested asking some members from the female sports teams in reality about Kamoshida's harassment, a small pressure leaked from Axel as he spoke with a chilling smile, ”Ryuji, don't bring this up to the female sports teams. Kamoshida's harassment is most likely a black stain in their lives that they wish nothing more than to erase the memory altogether. I would rather we tried harder in procuring evidence than bringing up bad memories for those girls.”

The boys audibly gulped as they could feel how pissed he was. It wasn't like a volcano erupting but a small breeze carrying a chilling wrath.

They could feel a cold hand caress on back of their necks as Axel continued to stand there, smiling.

Akira was confused because he only ever saw the calm and composed Axel while Ryuji was downright scared.

He knew that Axel, Ann and Shiho are really close to each other. The students also mentioned about how Kamoshida would sometimes beat and berate Shiho just because he could while he had harassed Ann to tears on more than one occasion.
