7 Marked by the Hawk (2/2)
Randy wanted to slap himself so bad until his family can't recognize him. He never hated himself so much like this in the past. He couldn't say anything since he knew that it won't change anything. He was doomed. His clan was doomed. His knees softened, and with a loud thud, he knelt on the floor with a pale face.
Raven looked down at him and said: ”How does it feel being marked by the Hawk?”
”And for the record…” Raven waved his hand and a dart flew towards the wall on his left. Everyone jumped fright as they saw the wall shifted and reveal a pale faced instructor who did not dare to even move a muscle, the dart that Raven threw flew just a few centimeters away from his face that's why. ”You have been watching since the beginning. Do you honestly think that you can escape my gaze?”
The instructor's body shook, his face became paler and paler, he too felt his knees go weak and Raven's next words almost sapped the life out of him.
”Prepare your speech well and come up with a solid excuse. I'd like to see if you still have the audacity to test my patience.” Raven snorted and left. Paul and Mark woke up from their stupor and hurriedly caught up with him.
The whole hallway became silent to the point that even a pin's drop could be heard. Everyone else that weren't included in the fray heaved a sigh of relief when they saw his silhouette disappear.
”What the hell was that all about!?” A random student exclaimed all of a sudden.
”Shh!” One of his friends placed a cover on his mouth and said: ”Tone it down, and remember. Do. Not. Provoke. That. Guy. Or those two who were following him.”
”Who is he?” That random student asked in hushed tone.
”Have you heard about the Kingdom's Hawk?” His friend solemnly asked.
”Of course! He was the most talented person in the entire Intelligence Department of the Army! His cultivation might be low but when he rose to position, he uprooted the camps of Black Curtain Guild that managed to infiltrate the kingdom in less than a week! He also uprooted many evildoers in the Outer Ring, causing the mortality rate to go down. 'Evil shall tremble when they are marked by the Hawk' that is how he does things. But what's the connection?”
”God you're dumb!” His friend facepalmed and explained and decided to give him more clues, ”Do you remember what that guy said to that bulky guy over there when the bird on his shoulder disappeared?”
”He said 'How does it feel…' oh shit…” that student's eyes constricted as he realized something when he was repeating Raven's words.
”Got it!? And for the record. The one his left is the son of the Institute's Dean while the one on his left is the son of a general.” His friend cautiously said as he pulled him out there.
Since they were talking as they walked, the remaining students overheard their conversation. All of them shook and swore in their minds. This goes specially well to the kneeling people that previously crossed Raven.
They really kicked an iron board this time around.

”Hah…” When Raven stepped outside of the building, he lifted both of his arms and stretched out. There was a playful smile on his lips. He glanced at his sworn brothers and saw that their heads down and there was a shameful expression on their faces.
”What's wrong you two?” Raven asked.
”We just…” Paul wanted to say something but he could only sigh in defeat, ”Sorry, we're useless.”

Mark clenched his fist hard and gritted his teeth, he didn't say anything, he too feel the same way but it's not so easy to admit it.
”Don't mind it. They started it anyway.” Raven wore a carefree smile on his face. On normal times, they would totally accept this as it is but today's a bit different.
”But Raven, you can only use that once a year!”
