Kyle gazed at the hand pressing on his shoulder. He patted Alec’s hand with a blank face.
Alec’s fingers curled up as the cold sensation from Kyle’s touch seeped through his hand.
‘What the?’
He gazed at Kyle back with a frown. Kyle’s hand was freezing like ice.
Meanwhile, a large breath escaped from Kyle’s mouth as he slowly opened his clenched fists. It was the first time he wanted to kill someone so badly.
Not even Sen the person he disliked the most infuriated him so much. After spending so much time together with Bia, she was an important part of his life. They bickered, cursed each other, heck they even hurled various attacks on each other but they relied on each other the most whenever there was a dangerous situation.
With a dazed expression, Kyle approached the cage. His fingertips touched the cold metal bars surrounding the unconscious Bia.
‘Bia?’
She didn’t reply. Kyle grabbed the cage roughly and used so much force that it door was broken. Unbeknownst to him his palm was bleeding due to the share amount of brute force he used to open the cage.
The drops of blood trickled down before they were absorbed by the table directly heading toward a container attached underneath the table where Bia’s blood was stored.
With a worried gaze, he gently caresses Bia’s wings but when his gaze landed on the metal chain present around her neck a surge of anger flooded his mind.
Kyle hurriedly looked around for the square-shaped device he acquired from the guard standing outside the underground prison cells.
With a swift movement, he placed the device on the chain. A clank sound resounded and the chain around Bia’s neck dropped before Kyle picked up her limp body.
He fiddled with the storage ring present on his finger and took out all the low-grade healing potions, sprinkling all of them on the deep large gash present on Bia’s back.
A barely audible painful groan resounded inside his mind and Kyle finally sighed with relief.
‘Bia?’
Her round watery eyes opened slightly and she glanced at Kyle.
-‘Hmm…’
‘It’s okay just sleep. I will wake you up when we are in a safe location.’
Kyle patted her head and looked at the person standing beside him.
“Ah.. she is fine.”
Mia nodded and gently tugged at Bia’s head with relief.
At this moment, Oliver sighed and spoke with a serious expression while looking around the room for a map or something related to the place where they were trapped.
“Let’s not waste any more time we have to leave this place.”
Kyle nodded and finally gazed around the dimly lit room. Various equipment and rows of glass containers with many monster’s body parts floating inside a strange liquid. His sharp gaze swept through everything before he saw a square-shaped platform hidden behind a U-shaped glass container.
With Bia in his hands, Kyle approached the platform and his eyes narrowed slightly as he studied the symbols carved on the platform.
The other students were busy looking around the room as they ruffled through each corner when Blane whispered with excitement.
“I found a communication Crystal!”
Alec stopped and gazed at Blane who was emptying a silver bucket normally used to store water. Not just him everyone gazed at Blane with expectations until Jenny slapped him from behind.
“It’s broken. Idiot you are rummaging through a dustbin. Can’t you see the used-up papers and other broken devices inside?”
Blane looked at her dumbfounded. What for? The slap was unexpected.
Oliver massaged his temples with sweaty hands and looked at the kids who were curiously pacing around the room like they were on a picnic.
“Alright stop fooling around. I don’t think there’s anything important in this place except for these strange containers. Let’s leave.”
Oliver gathered everyone ready to leave when he noticed Kyle standing in front of the platform.
“What are you doing? We need to leave.”
With a frown, he approached Kyle and gazed at the platform.
“It’s an Array…. maybe a trapping Array used to trap living beings.”
Oliver whispered slowly, he was not proficient in Arrays but from the small knowledge he had he could tell the Array was used to trap something but was broken when the trapped individual used too much force.
Kyle gazed at Olive and nodded, it was indeed a trapping Array. He looked back at the students before gazing at the blue-haired girl standing beside Carcel.
“Mia? Can you please take care of Bia for a while?”
“Sure.”
With a nod, Mia stretched out her hands and Kyle placed Bia’s body on her hands.
“She will be fine after some rest.”
Kyle’s eyes traced around the Array as he rubbed his cold palm.
“Professor I think we can escape through this Array. It’s not a Teleportation Array but I can do some fiddling and add some advanced symbols to form a one-way Teleportation Array. Though we can’t teleport far and the Array will be completely broken after one usage we can leave this place.”
A shocked expression appeared on Oliver’s face as he looked at Kyle with a deep frown.
“I know you know Arrays seeing how easily you passed through the Array present outside the underground prison but still, how is it possible for you to make a Teleportation Array? It’s too difficult even a single mishap can cause death causalities and it will take too much time just to design the complicated Symbols.”
Kyle looked at the Professor with a serious expression, not backing down even the slightest. He just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible because something inside him was forcing him to close his eyes and just fall asleep. If not for Bia he would have succumbed to that feeling a long time ago.
“I can do it. I have learned it from Elder Han. If I am successful we can leave this place.”
His voice came out a little hoarse as he gazed at the Professor who flinched when he heard Elder Han’s name.
Alec gazed at the room door and hurriedly approached Kyle.
“Alright, instead of running around aimlessly your idea is a lot better but how much time will it take? You do know we are in a dangerous place right now.”
Kyle looked back at Alec with a nod.
“I know it’s dangerous but I only need ten minutes if anyone has another idea I am willing to follow.”
For a moment, there was silence. After contemplating for a few seconds, Oliver nodded in agreement because he didn’t have any other plan as to how they should leave this place. Also, the more time they wasted the dangerous it was.
