Chapter 154 Plain Truth



Nix froze, his eyes widened. Turning his attention back to Lank who had the same horror-stricken eyes stared right back.

The questionable position they were caught in, would never go down well with their pride.

Pulling away instantly, Nix facepalmed at the awkward tension that arose in the air.

"Why do you keep ruining the moment?!" Nix facepalmed, shaking his head.

Lank on the other hand was eternally grateful for the interruption but also felt awkward about what had just transpired.

"You call that a moment?" Lumina spat, frowning.

"That\'s not what I meant and you know it!" Nix replied, frustrated by the situation he was in.

"Is it true... about Senior Fae?" Gia\'s timid voice carried an air of sadness as it broke up the two\'s conversation.

Nix raised a brow at Lumina, needing answers. In a space of a few minutes, Gia\'s mindset had changed.

"What did you tell her?" Nix spoke through gritted teeth, lowering his voice so only she could hear.

"I told her nothing but the plain truth." Lumina pushed back her hair, using the opportunity to give a signal through a wink, coughing right after.

Nix nodded to the subtle signal given, "oh!"

"She\'s gone?" She hiccuped, tears running down her eyes. "I hadn\'t even said a goodbye and she was taken?"

Lank rushed to her side, wrapping his hands around her. "It\'s okay, you don\'t have to cry anymore."

Irritated by his words, she pushed hard on him. "You knew, yet you chose to keep me in the dark."

Stunned by her action, he stood for a while contemplating his options.

There was only one person to blame for all of this, and it was none other than Lumina. He had been held back by Nix and had unaccounted for the part where Lumina might spill the beans when asked.

"I hope you know what you\'re doing." He growled, walking off.

There was no need to stay back, not after what had happened. Stopping at the side of Nix, he looked up at him sadly. Patting his shoulder, he walked off feeling dejected.

"Lank,"

"It\'s alright," Lank shook his head, taking one look back at Gia, he let out a sigh.

"Don\'t go." He called out desperately.

"I\'m already leaving anyway, I can\'t force my presence on those who don\'t want me." He gave a sad smile.

Activating his ability, he dashed towards his dorm in a hurry.

"Lumina," Nix spoke through gritted teeth, trying to calm every inch of his boiling nerves.

Lumina cringed upon the call of her name. If he had reverted to calling her in such a manner, then his words weren\'t going to be pleasant.

"Could you give Gia and me a moment?" He gave an eye shut smile which hid the negativity that was building in his heart.

As much as Fae was her friend, she had no right to speak to Gia who had just come out of a traumatic event.

p Her explanation would also force them to continue in on the lie of the death of Fae.

Gulping, Lumina felt the pressure under the intense glare of Nix.

"Of course, was there ever a doubt?" She replied, sprinting towards the door and closing it, without saying another word to her.

A strong force gripped Gia as the intimidating gaze was focused on her.

\'Is this the power of a fire rank?\' Gia wondered, lowering her head to his presence.

"Gia," Nix frowned, feeling the pain Lank would be going through at the moment.

Lank had every reason to keep it from her, she had just woken up from an impossible slumber, and there was no need to burden her with the information she was still going to learn later on.

"Have you ever felt the love of a family?" He began, his anger flaring at the thought of his own life in comparison with Lank\'s.

As he asked the question, it felt like he was talking more about himself as he questioned.

Gia looked awkwardly to the side, knowing where this would lead if she answered wrongly.

"Yes I have," she nodded her head. "I still have my parents back home."

Her last response irked him, it felt like she was pouring salt on his wound. Mocking him, if she knew about his family history.

"Do you know the history of Lank?"

Folding his hands, he leaned on the wall, trying to conserve his energy. The toll of his last fight still weighed him down after he had ditched a full treatment in the infirmary.

Gia shook her head at his question. No one knew his history, as far as she knew.

No one was that close to him to get any history lesson from him.

Her thoughts searched for the answers. There had to be a reason he had asked such a question.

"You know..." She finally replied.

"You got that right," Nix hissed, not understanding how and why he and Lank felt something special to insensitive girls.

They kept fluctuating from being warm and cuddly one moment to cold and irritable the next.

That display of rejection she had given to Lank was like a string had been pulled and made him lose all sense of pity.

First, he would deal with Gia, then onto Lumina.

"Do you know why I\'m the only one who knows so much about him, even though I am considered to every one of you as a new student?"

Gia began to sweatdrop, knowing the answer to this question, but too guilt-stricken to respond without being cut in the very web of the response.

"As I expected," Nix shook his head, pushing his back off the wall.

"You have no answer because you know what that would mean, even for you." He pointed an accusing finger at her.

There was no way he was going to mince out any words. If she doesn\'t realize it now, there was no way she would see Lank in a better light.

\'Lank you deserve better.\'

"He doesn\'t have anyone, nor does he remember who they are," Nix yelled at the top of his lungs. "Something you would never come to realize at the least. How do you think he feels being rejected by the one he cares about?"

Gia\'s eyes widened, shocked by his outburst.
