Beast Evolution



Lily removed her head from the door and opened it fully, Gabriel and Arya quickly removed their heads, but even after Lily opened the door, none of the knights reacted.

"Are you mad" Jack spoke as he held her before she could enter the building.

"I don't think they're going to revive Ray," Lily said angrily.

"Didn't you hear when they were talking about it, even if Ray is resurrected it will be no good if he doesn't recognize anyone, and spying on the knights might get all of us expelled, or they might think we are part of the enemy" Gabriel said.

"You are right, we can't be expelled from the academy because of this, all our training from day one would go to waste," Crystal said.

"I don't think Ray would want that" Arya added.

"At least they should try," Lily said weakly, she wasn't struggling to enter the building anymore.

...

"What are we going to do now, do you think it's going to work," Alfred asked Selena as they stood inside one of the buildings in the knight academy.

Selena told James and Alfred to meet her here so they would decide what to do with Kaan, the chains that bind Kaan had been removed by Selena as she had an affinity to darkness.

The chain was meant to chain demons but any powerful mage with an affinity to darkness would be able to remove or even control the chains.

"Kaan is willing to help us and I also have something to tell you" Selena spoke.

"What's wrong?" James asked.

"About Draco...you already know the scroll he took was to revive Kaan's master who is the Lord of demons, and after he's revived there is a chance he would take over Draco's body and raise demons to fight alongside him," Selena said.

"It's not a chance, that's exactly what he's going to do, and humans wouldn't stand a chance against him" Kaan spoke.

"What about you, I'm sure you are powerful enough," Alfred asked.

"Yes I am but not against my master, he locked me up for thousands of years and nothing is stopping him from doing it again, that's also one of the reasons why I want to revive Ray" Kaan explained.

"If all goes according to plan, my powers would be transferred to him and he would be able to stand against my master because he's not a full demon, he'll be half demon half human, and half beast, or maybe he wouldn't be a beast anymore" Kaan added.

"We'll have to think this through, and again you said Xethen empire is responsible for this attack, how sure are you?" Alfred asked.

"100% sure, but there's no proof it's them so even if you confront them, they are going to deny it," Kaan said.

"You are right, first we have to... someone is spying on us" Alfred paused and whispered in a low voice.

"Don't worry about it, they are just Ray's friends and they wouldn't be able to hear us from the door" Selena said with a smile.

"You knew all this while?" James asked.

"Where, I knew when you stepped in so I checked to see who it was, I think they are fighting amongst themselves if they should come in here or not, they are afraid of getting expelled" Selena nodded.

"You are able to hear them?"

"Yes, I did something, should I tell them to leave?" Selena asked.

"I don't have time for them, as long as they don't disturb us, the king is on his way here and I don't know what to do, Authur usually meets with the king but now I have to meet with him, what do I say" Alfred sighed heavily.

"What is the king coming here for, we can't tell the king about Ray or the fact that a demon is helping the knights," Selena said.

"That's right, you know the king right, we'll both meet with him," Alfred said.

"What do we do with Ray first?" James said.

"How long would it take to revive him?" Alfred asked.

"I really don't know cause I haven't done anything like this, I know spells used in necromancy but I've never actually tried any of them" Selena answered.

"Most spells in necromancy require sacrifice and this one is no different, let's get it over with before I change my mind," Kaan said and sat down.

"Who's going to be the sacrifice, him" James pointed to Kaan.

"Yes, Ray can only return to his body and it has been long since he died so he's going to perform the spell on himself and exchange his life for Ray also granting Ray his powers in the process, I'm just going to assist him," Selena said.

"Do you need our help?" Alfred asked.

"I don't think so, so we have your permission right?" Selena asked.

"My permission, so you won't do if I say otherwise?" Alfred asked back.

"You are the new head of the knight academy and Ray is your student, if you don't agree then I won't do it," Selena said.

"I haven't been appointed as the head yet and I wished Authur was here, we'll leave you guys and make sure it works, I don't want to explain how we lost one student when all of them are safe" Alfred spoke.

"You do know that the barrier was broken, but still we're going to revive Ray, and tell his friends to come in," Selena said.

"Why? I'm was going to punish the for spying on us" Alfred said.

"Let them in just in case Ray goes out of control, maybe his friends can talk to him or maybe his girlfriend," Selena said with a little laughter in her voice.

Alfred and James turned around to exit the building, Gabriel was still keeping an eye on the knights, and when he saw them turning around he quickly removed his head.

"Guys we need to go now", the knights are coming out Gabriel said and they all stood up immediately.

"Need to go where," a voice said from behind.
