"I overdid again," Yato muttered to himself as he shook his head.
"We'll at least there are no humans nearby or else they would be also in a range of [Mana Domain]."
Yato began to fly in the air as he said that. His next destination is the main battlefield where the main war is going on. But since their leader is dead. Demons' morals will soon crumble.
'it will be easy to kill them...'
Soon Yato was above the battlefield.
Fight between humans and demons going on. He could see that the human side was winning and he didn't need to intervene in the fight.
Yato's eyes paused on the Noa, who was killing any demon that came his way. Noa didn't stop as he killed any demon in his range.
Mages and Archers use their best spells to attack upcoming demons. At the front line [A] Rank heroes are also fighting without any hints of fear, supported by [B] Rank heroes.
In Yato's eyes, humans are winning and demons are losing, so he decides to not join in the fight.
Yato's phone began to ring. Taking the phone out of his pant pocket, yato eyes shot upward.
"why she is calling me all of a sudden?" Yato muttered and picked up his phone.
-This is not time for jokes, Yato.
A woman's voice could be heard other side of the phone.
"Hahaha, Lillian I don't know there are times for jokes too."
The woman is Lillian Ashbourne, [S-rank] hero and teacher in Nova Academy."
-Yato would you please be serious for a moment?
An annoying voice of Lilian could be heard through the phone. In her response, Yato raised one hand to salute.
"Aye, Aye mam, I understand."
Yato pulled his phone away from his ear as Lillian shouted.
"Geez, okay, tell me why did you call me?" yato said, since he knew that angering Lilian was not good.
-The headmaster wants you back at Nova Academy.
Yato was shocked when he heard that, it's been like five years since he was in charge of Bodars between the East and West continents. And in those Five years, he never knew when his duty was going to end.
If he wants he could leave from here, No one has the power to stop him but he did not want the world government to declare him a wanted Villain.
In the first place, he is here because he killed a high-ranking member of the world government in front of everyone.
The world government could not do anything against him if they wanted Yato killed, they had to ask for the help of major guilds, clans and hunter associations, hero associations
Few people have the power to fight against Yato as equals but they could also be killed in that fight.
World government hands are right, so they don't have a choice but to turn a blind eye to the incident.
But Yato received punishment regardless, The Punishment was for Yato to be in charge of boards between East and West.
"what about world government?" yato asked, he knew that they would surely not want him back.
-Don't worry; the headmaster said she will take care of it.
"OK, I'll be there in the morning."
-I will tell the headmaster about your coming."
Yato cut the call and his shoulders started to shake.
"Hahaha, those fucker never thought that I would return this early."
Yato said as he laughed. His gaze goes down where a fight still going on between humans and demons.
"Hey, let me join too." yato said as also joined the battlefield.
As soon as he joined the fight everything became blurred, he killed any demon he had set his eyes on.
The fight ended in a few minutes.
Two days had passed since the Samuel incident but news of what had transpired during the Eclipse forest spread throughout the whole academy and outside of like wildfire.
I thought that there was no camera inside Eclipse Forest but I was wrong, there was a camera and in that camera footage of me killing Samuel was recorded.
It was just one footage, it did not record my fight against puppet students but that one footage turned my life upside down.
After waking up in the infirmary, I watched the footage of the camera. Seeing myself killing that bastard was a good feeling but when I thought that many people were also watching this, I felt exposed to it in front of the world.
This footage was broadcast by every news channel, and at the current moment this topic is trending in online search engines.
I haven't thought about this before but my parents also heard about this news.
I'm sure they have tried to contact my phone but since my phone is not with me I could not reply to them.
Thinking about all of this my head started to spin
All of my wounds are healed but I asked for one day's rest to clear my thoughts.
Currently, I was lying in bed infirmary staring at the white ceiling of the room. Lost in my thoughts.
I thought that since I didn't directly participate in the main plotline of the story the future wouldn't change.
I thought I had full control of my memories, so I decided to take advantage of them and help myself to some of the benefits whilst also trying to not affect the plotline.
But I was wrong…no matter how small the change was, once it began…there was no stopping it.
One little change could cause massive changes to the whole story. It was like a domino chain.
Regardless of how small the force was, once the first domino fell, like a chain reaction all the dominos fell apart.
I was naive, no! I was arrogant.
Because of my arrogance, the plotline started changing. In a way I was losing control of the advantage that I had as the author. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
The event between Samuel and Isabella should've never happened this early in the novel. Somehow my actions had affected the novel. Despite repeating to myself that everything was going to be fine, I was simply lying to myself.
I couldn't deny something that happened right before my eyes. I couldn't deny that my existence itself had changed the plotline.
…I fundamentally needed to change the way I was thinking.
I don't know the answer to that. I also do not interact with the main characters that much. I was just observing them from a distance but it looks like that was the main cause of the problem.
Do I actively interact with the protagonists or keep myself in the shadows as I did before?'
Snapping me from my thoughts was the sound of my smart bracelet ringing. Turning it on I looked at the notification that showed up.
[Lucas Darkhart, this is your homeroom teacher Lillian Ashbourne. You have to head to the headmaster's office right now.]
Now, what I'm going to do about this?
Lucas Darkhart, this is your homeroom teacher Lillian Ashbourne. You have to head to the headmaster's office right now.]
Now, what I'm going to do about this?
What else? Since it's a direct order from the headmaster I have to go.
I got up from bed and started to walk toward the door of the infirmary.
Just as I opened the door I got to see Evelyn standing in front of the door.
I stared at her and she did the same.
After an awkward staring competition, I let out a fake cough.
"Ah, L-Lucas where are you going?" Evelyn said as she tried to hide a small blush on her face.
"Headmaster's office, apparently she called me there," I replied to her, trying to end this awkward situation we were in.
"So could you please move away from the door?"
"Ah, OK." realization settles down on her face she hastily moves away from the door.
After she moved away, I started to walk in the direction of the headmaster's office but just as I had taken a few steps, I stopped and looked back and saw that Evelyn still standing there.
"Evelyn!" Evelyn turned toward me, with a confused expression on her face.
"Oh, well. I just wanted to say thank you."
A smirk came to her lips at my words. She took a few steps towards me and soon she was standing very close to me.
"what thanks? Can you please say it properly Lucas?" Evelyn said we were so close that I could feel her breathe.
Blood started to rush down my face as I found myself suturing.
"Well, I j-just wanted to t-thanks for believing m-me and what you did for me that's all."
She took a few steps back and nodded her head.
"As long as you know that, it's fine and you owe me one Lucas."
I just turned around in a hurry and started to walk again.
