After listening to all the information about everything that had happened in the non leaders' section during the day, Atticus gave the Ravenstein youths some more instructions for a few more minutes before leaving the mansion in which they had all been gathered.
Atticus immediately headed towards the advanced training room to train. He had missed out on the elemental room for a few days now, and after informing Zoey about what was happening, she had wanted to lend him some points. Atticus had pondered on it for a while and decided to refuse.
He wanted this to be some form of punishment for him, a sort of reminder that because he had been too focused on training and other things, he had allowed his enemies to get one over him.
After he solved this current issue and found the perpetrator, he would continue his training in the elemental room.
The next day came by quickly, and just as Atticus had anticipated, the rumor had spread through out the whole academy, and most importantly, to the higher years.
They had each watched the videos of the Ravenstein youths' brutality against the Nebulon youths.
Both parties, the higher years of the Ravenstein and the Nebulon families, had immediately consulted the first years in order to find out just exactly what was going on.
Amongst the second and third years of the Ravenstein family, one would see the familiar figures of Hella, Sophie, and surprisingly, Orion.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMost of them hadn't changed much since the Raven camp. The first, Hella, had shown up because of her ginormous sense of duty, while the second, Sophie, had always been a hyper busybody.
There was no way she was missing out on something this interesting.
And then the last, Orion.
Since after the incident where the Raven camp had been attacked, Orion's personality had gone through a major change, and this was mainly due to his father, Sirius.
Immediately since Sirius had heard about what happened in the Raven camp with how terribly Orion had treated Atticus, he had made it his goal to educate his foolish son about the ways of the world.
Many surprising and awkward events happened during Atticus's 5 year training, and one of them had been Sirius forcing Orion to bow before Atticus and apologize.
Of course, the latter vehemently refused to do it initially, but with Sirius present, Orion dared not to disobey.
Atticus had, of course, played everything cool in order to give Sirius face; he respected the man after all.
After the incident and a few more forceful 'educations' from Sirius, Orion's overconfident personality took a nosedive as he became more humbled.
He had meddled in this situation because of his father's incessant warnings and advice to get closer to and form any sort of relationship with Atticus. An advice Orion understood well considering the power Atticus had unleashed during the escape at the Raven camp.
And seeing as it was the first years that had been rampaging, it was very obvious that Atticus was involved.
As they each got briefed on the situation, as expected, the first years had been following Atticus's instructions.
And just as Atticus had anticipated, the trio and the other Ravenstein youths that came forward immediately decided to join in on the war.
And it went without saying that the higher years of the Nebulon family raged when they found out what was going on.
The first-year youths gave each of them ManaClear glasses and some other equipment just as Atticus had instructed.
And just like that, on the second day, the battle that was supposed to involve only the first years immediately spiraled out into a full-blown war between the Ravenstein family and the Nebulon family in the academy.
And as the higher years joined, the fights became more intense as the damage to the school and even innocent students immediately skyrocketed.
Many of them even went as far as to employ their exo suits against enemies.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe academy instantly turned into a war zone.
It became a normal occurrence to see groups of Ravenstein youths, each of them sporting their ManaClear glasses, and groups of Nebulon family youths moving together around the campus.
And as soon as both groups were spotted within vicinity, each and every single one of the students present in the area would immediately disperse and scatter. No one had any intention of being the collateral damage.
However, despite the damage, no instructor nor academy staff even tried to stop the ongoing battle.
The destroyed walls and areas were repaired and revived before the next day, without any of the students even finding out how.
As the days went by, with hundreds of multiple battles happening around the academy campus, it became very certain that the Nebulon family youths were fighting a losing battle.
Through and through, the Ravenstein family had always been a warrior family. And although the Nebulon family were also strong in their own way, but with their most powerful ability, their illusions, taken away from them, they stood no chance against the Ravenstein family youths.
As the days passed, the Nebulon family kept on getting decimated. No one needed to tell the onlookers, it was plenty obvious that it was only a matter of time before the Nebulon family got completely crushed.
Each of the students were once again reminded of the might of the Ravenstein family. In all the fights the students had witnessed, the Ravensteins had never lost a fight.
And what was even more baffling for them was the fact that during the fights, each of the Ravenstein youths, especially the first years, all wore intense grins on their faces. Even when torturing the Nebulon family youths!It was quite obvious that they were all happy about their current situation. The words "mad men" kept on resonating in each of the students' heads.
…
In the middle of a bustling area filled with different students throttling about, the ground beside the large imposing terminal suddenly let out a golden glow that illuminated the whole area, and from it, the form of a red haired youth materialized, a wide grin on his face.
