Chapter 103 A Failed Accusation



"What did you say?", Moore spoke out loud as he slammed his fist on the table.

"I said that the merge has started. We have one month before dimensional corridors open all around the world and beings from System Online come to ours", The dean said calmly. Not showing a bit of hesitation or fear.

Looking at him, it felt as if the dean had changed, his demeanor was different, and his eyes were as calm as they could. But underneath, it seemed as if the calmness was just the premise of havoc wreaking storm.

"And you are okay with it? The merge has started. We only have a month before people start to get killed and our world is invaded", Moore said in anger as he asked the dean,

"I need to know, what happened in a few hours that caused the merge. First, you leave us in the middle of the meeting, and that too while taking full authority of control over the situation. Now, you come back and say that the merge is happening. How do you expect anyone to believe you", Moore asked in anger as he criticized the dean.

"I know you all don\'t want to believe it. But believe me. That incident just now. If we had taken action earlier, we might have had more time. But not now, because when I reached there, it was too late. Edward had already sacrificed the souls and he then sacrificed himself right after", The dean spoke in melancholy.

Hearing what the dean had to say, most felt confused as one of the directors asked,

"What incident are you talking about? Just right now, we had met because some kids were causing trouble. That\'s all",

"I wish it was that. They had the support of a celestial and they turned hundreds of kids into werewolves as they forced the beast to take over. Then, their souls were used as a sacrifice", the dean answered.

"What? It was that big of a matter. Then why didn\'t you tell us?", the director asked in anger as he pointed his finger at the dean and accused him as he spoke,

"For you to be here and act sadly while you told us nothing, even when you knew about everything. I feel it\'s your sense of power that has taken over your mind. If you told us, we could have stopped it all", The director then sat back silently as he smirked slightly.

On the other hand, Moore\'s lips also curved up slightly as he glanced at the director in approval.

The dean remained silent throughout. Not only that, but his expression also remained the same, not changing a bit.

Looking at the dean remain silent, another director shot up from his seat and accused,

"He is right, you have been doing nothing but showing off your power ever since. I feel that you are incapable of being the director. Even more now, when the world is on the verge of destruction",

Listening to the accusation, the directors supporting Moore, all nodded in agreement as they threw vicious looks at the dean.

Meanwhile, all this tension pissed off the dean. His anger started to rise as his recently calmed emotions surged again.

His turbulent emotions made his power leak and his clothes started to flutter as the wind kicked up.

Amanda noticed it all but remained silent as she understood that the accusers were to be given a warning.

The dean silently stood up from his seat and spoke in a deep voice,

"Why did you say that I didn\'t tell you anything? Huh! I told you everything, even showed you evidence. But what did you do? You continued to bark like dogs while I went there alone to save the remaining students. If not, you wouldn\'t even know when the merge would have started and the world would have been lost. All because of you",

As the dean spoke, everyone got silent as they heard his deep voice that sent chills down their spines.

On the other hand, the accusers also had their mouths shut. But because of different reasons. Their mouths were shut because it was they that initiated and participated in the useless argument last time.

The dean then continued to speak,

"Also, I didn\'t call you all here to argue over what\'s done. What I called you here for is the fact that, as one of the supreme generals in charge of Earth\'s safety. I want to discuss with you all what to do next", The dean said as he emphasized the word \'Supreme General\'.

Listening to the dean, everyone calmed down as they understood that now wasn\'t the time for arguing or throwing useless accusations.

It was time to make plans for the future. A future where humanity maintains its freedom and remains at the top.

Seeing that everyone had calmed down, the dean nodded and sat back in his seat as he said,

"Also, Edward had reached the Celestial Realm. Even if I wanted to stop him, I would have had to use my full strength. That in itself would have accelerated the merge. The one month we have is the best course of action",

"Also, we need to make an apology to the parents of the wolves that we lost today. Although this would cause some backlash, being honest would be the right thing to do",

Listening to the dean, most of the directors nodded as Amanda spoke up to add some suggestions,

"Let\'s try and compensate for their losses too. It would ease down some of them. Also, we need to make a community to account for the lives lost and people injured while the discipline community should take into account all the students involved and punish them",

Most directors nodded in approval over Amanda\'s suggestion whole the dean continued with his orders as he said,

"Also, the academy will now be on black alert constantly. The students would be given a three-day holiday to consolidate with the changes and right after they come, they will be trained to fight in conditions after merge",

As the dean spoke his words, Moore interrupted and said,

"What about the monthly test that is to come",

"It will be taken a week before the merge. The test would allow us to differentiate between the students based on their performance during the test. Hence, separating the cream from the crop. Those students would then be trained in real-time situations and be given experience as they would be trained as leaders of the next generation",

"Are there any issues with what I said? If so, then please speak up now. If not, then I end the meeting while other matters would be discussed tomorrow",

The dean said as he waited for anyone to speak up. However, no one did so and seeing that no one spoke up against his suggestions. The dean nodded and then called back his system from the orb and ended the meeting.

As all of the directors slowly left the hall, the dean caught up to Moore and whispered in his ear,

"I know what you are up to and I don\'t care what tactics you use. But if I find even a single piece of evidence that traces back to you. Believe me, you wouldn\'t be able to bear a single second of what I will put you through", The whispered as he left the hall. Leaving behind a petrified Moore who understood that the cryptic words that the dean spoke were not some mere warning but a threat in itself.

Meanwhile,

Elite Class Dormitory,

Ray sat on his bed as he finally checked his progress after a long time.

"The last time I checked my stats was when I got the system and leveled up after that big fight. Let\'s see how much stronger I have gotten.

Going on to his system screen, Ray accessed the stats tab,

[Stats]

- Strength:- 68

- Agility:- 73

- Stamina:- 45

- Endurance:- 49

- Mana:- 259

- Perception:- 69

- Dexterity:- 51

- Bloodline Energy:- 17

(Stat Points:- 53),

Looking at his stats being highly unbalanced, Ray understood that he had to change his training to make his stats be more balanced and not be someone who would be out of juice after a few rounds.

Other than that, he also used up his stat points and increased his stamina and endurance to 65 while he used up the remaining points to increase his Bloodline Energy.

After doing that, Ray asked Aurora,

"Why do I have bloodline energy as a stat?",

"What do you mean why? It\'s a representation of the amount of strength your bloodline could provide. Increase it and get more strength from your bloodline", Aurora answered nonchalantly.

"So why does it use mana when activating my bloodlines and not bloodline energy?", Ray asked in confusion as he thought back to his fight against the Omega.

"You Dumbo! It uses both. The bloodline energy is like a sports car while mana is the fuel to power it and drive it. If your bloodline energy is the same while mana increases, you can use your bloodline more and more but the output power is the same", Aurora answered as she explained the analogy to Ray.

"Okay. So that\'s how it is", Ray said as he thanked Aurora and then closed the status screen and went to bed.

It had been a long night for Ray and he was thoroughly exhausted, while tomorrow had a big surprise for the whole world.
