60 Room of Trouble (2/2)

Their skin had turned bright red from the blood circulation while some of them had faint red marks on their necks that may have been done due to strangulation.

Any attempts in moving their limbs seemed to cause weakness and pain. A further diagnostic would be the limp actions as well as the dazed expression.

The Martial Artists were still weary if the perpetrator was here and cautiously opened up every room. Checking any window, closets or just a general place to hide; they had yet to find anyone.

Opening the last door they were welcomed to the sight of a listless girl tied to the toilet and yelled to the teachers

”T-there's.... there's more of them.”

All the teacher's faces were downcast and weren't sure who to blame.

Was it the student's family? The academy's teaching? Influence by other students?

Realizing that there many points that could be doubted, some felt that this student should surely be punished.

The teachers gathered the students into the largest room within the dorm and undid all the ropes.

It was a pitiful sight as the one with dry lips was probably the person who cried for help had now been reduced to a girl devoid of any emotions.

After looking for any serious injuries to heal, they found that it was only the tight rope that may cause harm while the calm magician brought out blankets to cover their unsightly clothes.

The clothes were reduced to dregs and was barely able to cover them.

The other magician was clearly furious as he exited the room and refused to look at this scene any longer.

”Why's he so mad?”

One of the warriors questioned the extreme reaction and guessed that the magician could be new to the job.

Having known the magician for a much longer time the calm magician was able to answer it.

”There was a scandal when a prince from a distant kingdom had visited our school for exchanging knowledge and learning. He committed an act similar to this and it created a huge scandal.”

Taking a deep sigh the magician continued

”The academy at the time was under management of a different principal which was why he's still here. Because that principal didn't want to infuriate a kingdom, he instead blamed it on his disciple who's now beheaded.”

The warrior who asked that question was left in contemplation while the other one busied himself looking for any clues.

Looking around a bed there was a scatter of purple dust on the pillow.

Pointing towards it he called out to the magician.

”There seems to be some drugs that could have caused the odd actions of the victims.”

Understanding what the warrior was trying to get to, the magician used his Space Ring to get a small bag and used his mana create a small current to lead the powder into the bag.
