Chapter 451 Gaya is fired

Just like Victoria scanned her surroundings, Michael also performed the scanning. The only difference other than the obvious energy difference was Michael sensed the two girls' presence way before Victoria sensed him.

He let them see the one-sided brutality to earn badass points. As he expected, he earned quite a lot of badass points. Since every single one in Mazeroth was either genius or celebrity, his badassery earned tons of badass points. Because of this theory, he didn't think deeply about the two girls' identities.

"Miss 45" Michael lowered his sleeves down,

"Something tells me you are not here for my coin" Edith was stunned by the sudden change in his demeanor. A few moments ago, he was coldly breaking the bones of his fellow students and now, he was smiling warmly.

"I was foolish to think you needed help. How could you do this?" Edith's eyes watered looking around. Their cries and agony softened her already soft heart.

"Thank you for your kindness Miss 45. Now if you step aside, I have a bitch to deal with"

Michael looked at Nightmare standing atop his shoulder and saw his worried face when he was being bullied. That scene kindled the rage in his heart.

If he was outside, he would have killed the five by now. The least he could do was break a few bones and that was letting them off easily.

"No" Edith stomped the ground again. This time, the ground beneath him trembled as translucent chakras appeared behind her. But the chakras quickly disappeared as soon as they appeared.

"Human we have a problem" To his surprise, he heard Gaya's voice in his head.

"You can't take their coins but I won't let you harm them any more than you have already" Edith's voice turned colder,

"I couldn't care less about these coins" Michael took the two coins from his pocket before throwing them at Edith's feet. It was him who asked Gaya to

Assign them this task so he could follow these bullies and teach them a lesson. He had no interest in winning.

"For their medical expenses" With a snicker, he turned his back on Edith,

Before leaving the scene, he looked up at the tree Victoria was standing on. Victoria felt his gaze on her for a second. She was sure that he looked directly at her. She was hiding her presence as well as her body yet he sensed her through all the foliage, darkness, and the trees. She was surprised by him.

Quickly Nightmare jumped down from his shoulder while transforming into his real form. With Michael on his back, Nightmare took off into the sky with a powerful flap of his wings like a bullet from a gun.

The arena was just a few minutes flying away from the black forest. With Nightmare's speed, they reached it in two minutes. As he landed in the arena, he saw several students, as well as a silver horse with two feathery wings, protruding out of its back slacking on the ground.

A youngster who looked like the embodiment of the word warrior was talking to Gaya and by the redness and the stiffness of Gaya's body, it seemed like they were having a heated conversation. To be more precise, Gaya seemed to be having a heated conversation while the youngster looked calm and composed.

"Elliot Watson" Michael recognized the youngster as the head prefect. When he first came to Mazeorth castle, he met the head prefect along with three other students. He wondered why he was here and what he did to make Gaya's face become as red as a ripe tomato.

Soon he noticed a golden parchment in her hand,

"Two classes and you've put the students' life at risk in each class"

"I heard you the first several times. What made you fucking qualified to tell me how to do my fucking job?"

Michael joined the group of students staring at the ruckus to hear her shout. She noticed Michael but didn't acknowledge him due to obvious reasons,

"I'm qualified and have the authority to take back your job" Michael was stunned,

"You have endangered the lives of the students enough and the way you've been treating them is not the way a house warrior teacher should. You have a week to vacate the premises, good day Miss Nayla Steinmeyer"

Elliot adjusted his spectacles before jumping back on his horse and flying away.

"What's happening?" Elidyr came to his side with a grin. In his hand, he had a pouch and by the clicking sounds coming from the pouch, Michael could see they were coins.

"Class dismissed as well as the professor" Few elves chuckled among the group. Not only the elves but also the students of other races too looked happy and wore bright smiles on their faces. The Alchemists were the ones who seemed most relieved.

"Ex-professor"

The elves continued to laugh among themselves. Gaya left the arena before she lost her patience and broke the faces of those who were laughing.

Back in Michael's room, a seven feet mirror had erupted. In front of the mirror stood Elidyr, Michael, and Nightmare.

"So these Spyders capture the feed in real-time and project it through mirrors?" Elidyr was curiously staring at the Spyder on his palm.

"I can enhance them by increasing their speed, durability and prevent them from getting detected by some of the powerful arrays. Although they were made of junk metal, there are some arrays that could still detect their presence"

"Is this thing working?" Gaya appeared in the mirror while Elidyr was fiddling with the Spyder. She was poking the Spyder and seeing her face up close put a smile on Michael's face. It was funny. She was currently standing in a cozy room with a fireplace and comfy sofa. There were several portraits of the founders of Mazeorth hanging on the wall behind her. The room however was a mess and he noticed the broken table lying in pieces.

"Yes I can see you, now if you step back, you will be able to see us too" Michael talked to the Spyder floating in the air in front of him.

Since meeting Gaya in person would raise unwanted suspicions, he used the Spyders as web cameras and initiated a video call using the devices he built.

"Tell me, what happened?" asked Michael.

"Didn't you see? I was fired. That son of a bitch evoked some idiotic rule to fire me out of my job. We are less than sixteen away from starting the ritual and I have already lost my job. What are we gonna do about it?"

"Hmm, I do vaguely remember something about in the event of a professor abusing his or her power to endanger the lives of their students, a secret vote can be held by the head prefect and if the vote passed against the professor, they will be stripped of their job. But to evoke the rule, take the vote and fire you from your post within two days is quite a feat, Dark Queen"

Gaya rolled her eyes seeing Elidyr praising Elliot.

"We will proceed as we planned. It's too late to back off now. After we make my soul whole again, we may not even have to be here. Elidyr, you sure you can modify the teleportation scroll to teleport us out of here?"

"Already finished it. Just say the word and the four of us will be out of here before one could say cheese"

Michael wanted to say he was surprised but he expected this from a 6-star Runemaster who was several thousand years old. He had the knowledge and skills to open the gates to Earth and for a Runemaster with his caliber, it would be simple enough to modify a teleportation scroll.

"The girl, will she be there? Our whole plan depends on her showing up to battle the fire giant" Gaya asked. She didn't give a damn about being a professor. The only thing she cared about was the ritual that was supposed to happen tomorrow.

No matter what happens, they have to go through with the ritual. The sooner his soul becomes whole, the better, Gaya knew this. The ritual was extremely important and that was why she was royally pissed at Elliot for getting herself fired.

"Don't worry. She will come"

After discussing their plan for a few more minutes, Michael cut the call. He then took out a muddy brown potion from the system storage.

"Nightmare" He called Nightmare as the little dragon came flying to him,

"Take this" he handed over the potion to Nightmare.

"It's your task to spray this potion in the air and lure the fire giant to the ritual site"

They picked up a secluded site in the middle of the black forest as their ritual site. It was far from the Mazeroth castle yet relatively closer to the fire giant. According to Elidyr, the ritual might last from one hour to three hours.

The first step of the ritual was to extract the soul piece that Michael named as the third persona. The second step was to cage the soul into the fire giant's body thus giving the soul piece a physical manifestation. Then the third and most difficult step of the ritual was letting Rowena defeat the fire giant but not kill it. She had to weaken the giant so Michael could absorb the soul back at its weakest state.

In its weakest state, it would be merged with the other two soul pieces and if everything went according to their plan, his soul would be whole once again.

As they were finalizing their plan for tomorrow, Gaya's doors were knocked on by an unexpected guest. Gaya was irritated by the fact she got fired and moreover, the guy who was responsible for it was stronger than her. It was embarrassing for her.

After diligent cultivation, she just reached Core Strengthening stage level 4. However, Elliot was at Soul Refining Stage level 2.

"Only if I went through my metamorphosis. Damn it"

Knock!

Knock!

Knock!

Her train of thought was interrupted by a knock on her door. She cast a quick spell to spread her senses. When she sensed the one who was knocking on her door, she was surprised. It was an extremely powerful presence, a presence of a Fusion Stage cultivator.

She was surprised and startled more than she was annoyed. With utter caution, she slowly approached the door.

When she opened the door, a man clothed in dark robes resembling an overgrown bat stood at her doorstep.
