91 Chapter 91: Note (1/2)

Early morning, students were wakened up from the disturbances across the academy. Many rubbed their sleepy eyes and looked at each other before walking out of their dorms to check out the mess in their pajamas.

The students, in their pajamas, bed hair, and sleepy eyes, walked towards the front gate. Since the dormitory was inside the academy compound and was just adjacent to their main building, they didn't have to walk a lot before they reached the front gate where a crowd was gathering.

When the students reached the front gate, some squeezed their way to the front only to be horrified at the scene before them.

On their huge gate, five students were tied to the poles naked. That wasn't the shocking factor, the middle one, the one who was tied to the highest pole was none other than the principal's son, Steve. His face was beaten black and blue and his hands looked like it was broken, it laid limp on his sides.

Shocked gasps arose from the crowd when they realized who the students were. But, on closer look, you could see the difference in their reactions. The men were agitated by the incident whereas the woman was secretly glad.

The women couldn't help but thank the people who did a great service to them. Only God knows how many of them were at his mercy. Just because he was the son of their principal, they had to give in to his threats.

Suddenly, a sudden silence fell upon them when they saw a movement from the main building. Rows of people came out and the person leading them was Professor Richard, uncle of Steve. Richard half ran to the gates in his pajamas.

On reaching the front gate, his face paled and his hands trembled as he gazed at his nephew.

”Steve...Steve...What happened to him?”

His eyes suddenly shifted across the silent crowd and yelled, ”What are you all looking at? Take him down quickly.”

”Don't hurt him.”

Acceding his call, the students hurriedly went over to take them down slowly. As soon as they placed the students on the ground, Richard hurried over, ignoring the other four injured students. The healer who was accompanying him couldn't help frown at his actions. She looked at her apprentices and gestured them to take a look at them.

Richard looked at his nephew in pain, he could see signs of beating and swellings all over his body. He looked back and on seeing the healer gesturing others to check the rest. He shouted at her to come and take a look at his nephew.

Startled by his shout, the healer hurriedly approached and checked him. Richard stood up and gave way to the healer to check his nephew's vitals. His brows furrowed together when he saw the grave expression on the healer's face.

Professor Richard pursed his lips as he glared at the healer. The healer bowed her head as if she was really sorry to not help. But, the news of his thing not working made many women glad.

Richard stepped forward and held the healer's collar and shook her fiercely, ”What did you say? Wake him up, aren't you a healer? Why can't he be saved?”

The healer frowned at his words. 'Just because I'm a healer it doesn't mean I can save every people.'

The healer sighed and swallowed her retort. She caught his hand and pried it out of her collar and said, ”Sir, At the moment, the only way to save him is through the people who did this against him.”
