I created my own system

"Professor?"

Alicia asked seeing professor Adolfo in front of the dorm's gate.

"I am fine, you guys need to head inside, looking at the clouds the rain might become heavier"

He opens the gate urging for them to enter.

"Professor what's really hape-..."

"Not now Arabela just head inside please"

With the professor's urging they all obeyed, the wind raging on while the rain continued to pour.

"You are one stubborn enemy you know"

Behind his back a man wearing a black cloak emerges, his body is covered with wounds and his cloak is littered with holes.

"I finally found the five" Instead of looking at Adolfo the scouter was looking at the fifteen running students.

"You won't be able to go inside"

"Oh?..am I?"

To Adolfo's surprise, his body changed and morphed into a figure he was familiar with.

"Is that me?"

The scouter turns into Adolfo but the professor just stares at him as if he sees something indecent.

"What kind of expression is that?... Forget about his expression I need to focus on my duty" the scouter thought while looking at Adolfo's disgusted face.

He approached the gate without looking at his opponent.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you"

He didn't mind Adolfo's warning and without hesitation, he touched the gate's handle.

"Argh!"

A power enough to paralyze someone surged from the gate making the scouter unable to move.

"What...is t..this!?"

"I told you not to touch it, how stupid"

"Bu...argh!!...I copied even your....mana signature"

"Ah..pfft!.. seriously if copying mana signatures is so easy to do, many people could have invaded the academy"

The professor then calmly approaches the dying man in front of the lower-class dormitory gate.

"Why?..I...." he tried to speak however the spell from the gate began taking effect.

"I didn't even need to lift a finger"

Professor Adolfo said while looking at the eyes of the dead scouter.

"What happened here?"

The professor almost had a heart attack when he heard a voice coming from his back.

"I didn't even notice his presence," he thought as he turned back to see the source of the voice.

"Apollo?" his initial cautious expression relaxes when he realizes who it is.

"Hey, professor what's with the ragged get-up?"

His usual ivory long-sleeve shirt with a black necktie fixed on his collar has stains of blood and dirt, on top of his shirt is a black waistcoat while a black overcoat rests on his shoulder, but it is also littered with holes and burns.

Then his lower body is clothed with dark charcoal grey pants which have little dirt and scratches on them. Laced up on his feet are a pair of men's shoes with low heels but it was stained with blood as if he walked on them.

"Oh this I just ran around the academy cleaning up some stuff"

"I see"

"Oh you should head inside the rain looks getting worse"

"Okay professor"

While Apollo entered he caught a glimpse of a body lying flat in front of the gate.

"So I wasn't the only one" he thought when he realized the familiar get up of the dead man.

...

"Children I think I remember reminding all of you to bring an umbrella"

Miss Martha began scolding them as soon as she saw them all soak from head to toe.

"Hurry take a quick shower then head to the dining hall"

As soon as she tended to them Apollo suddenly arrived his demeanor was the same when Gil and Martha witnessed him disposing of three dead bodies.

"Hey Miss Martha" greeted Apollo however a towel was the thing that Miss Martha answered.

"Quick shower now"

"Yes madam"

Apollo went up just as he was told to and quickly took a bath.

"That was refreshing! I felt like all my fatigue disappeared" Apollo couldn't help but say, feeling like his pent-up stress was washed away.

"Huh?"

Somehow the complex emotion he was having while confronting those five scouters disappeared.

"What was it then?"

He began to think "I was sure I wasn't afraid of them but there was this feeling I can't tell"

While he contemplated his previous emotion he began dressing up. Just a light brown loose sweater and gray jogging pants.

"Yup let's just wear this"

Coming down the stairs a welcoming scent made the boy eager to enter the dining hall.

"Apollo!"

"Hey buddy you okay right?"

"Should we go to the infirmary?"

"Did you get injured!"

As soon as they saw Apollo they immediately rain him with questions about his wellbeing.

"Easy guys he is safe" Alicia tried to convince them while helping Jenny and Nadia set up the table.

"Sit down Apollo!"

Blair urged him while Mckenzie pulled a chair for him.

"Thanks"

"Let me get your food"

"I'll get some water then"

"Hey, do guys want a hot chocolate? this cold rainy weather could be paired up with a warm beverage"

"Let's have one I want a big mug"

"I know Mckenzie"

While they continue to help out Apollo suddenly realizes the feeling he was experiencing a while ago.

"So I wasn't really scared, the battle wasn't the cause of it" he sighed in relief.

"I was merely afraid" then he couldn't help but look at them.

"I was merely afraid of losing them" he scratched the back of his head feeling embarrassed "What a feeling" he couldn't help but say.

The night fell even though the rain still continued.

"Wow"

The kids couldn't help but say when they finally used the fireplace in the tea room.

There was magic embedded in the fireplace making the fire turn into different colors and shapes.

They just watch the flames transform into flowers before exploding like fireworks.

"It's pretty"

"Yeah...Alicia"

"Yes, Apollo?"

"I need to leave tonight so make sure none of them will notice my absence"

"Alright just be careful"

"I will"

....

A couple of hours went by and Apollo moved when he noticed all of them were asleep.

He sneakily went towards his room and made sure to double-lock it. A barrier was then erected making sure that nothing would go wrong with his interrogation.

"Now then let's welcome our guest"

A man suddenly emerged, his body was full of injuries.

"You bastard!"

Gideon braces the pain of his wounds and casts a spell.

"Stop!"

However, the time surrounding him suddenly halted deeming his spell useless.

"Let me put this on first"

An anti-magic handcuff was put on his hand while his neck got a slave collar.

"Done"

He claps his hand making the time flow again.

"Ahhh!...huh?"

He had thought he had a chance but his body suddenly couldn't produce mana.

"Why I was just fine a while ago?" he questioned feeling bitter.

However Apollo was not in the mood for explanation, he immediately went on business.

"Darkness element Necromancy magic, Veritas"

Dark tainted smoke appeared on the ground before entering Gideon's head.

"No....NO!!!....ARGH!!!"

He started to coil in pain rolling on the ground as if trying to endure it.

"Hmmm?"

All sorts of memories invaded Apollo's mind fortunately he had Jeremiah to sort out the useless and useful information.

"Did I just see a beast's egg in his secret vault?"

[You did Creator]

"Interesting I also saw a book from the monastery, that's our priority"

[Are you going to transform now Creator?]

"Why are you so excited to use that skill"

[Because It's a very unique skill Creator]

"I will think about it but for now I will deal with this guy first"

He then approaches Gideon who is still on the ground.

"Darkness element Black magic, Vorax pestis"

An acidic scent suddenly fills Gideon's nose making him dizzy.

Dark tainted smoke began to devour him, he tried to scream however the black smoke blocked his airway suffocating him in the process.

"Let's leave we don't have time for this"

[Agreed]

As they turn their back on Gideon, his body begins to burn as if something is eating his skin away. He couldn't scream all he could do was endure the pain.

From a renowned professor he then into dust as the spell took over.

"Jeremiah proceed to use the skill"

[affirmative Creator]

A barrier was created to protect him from the academy's defence mechanism. He was after all going to use another spell.

[Skill Demonification....proceed to activation Creator?]

"Yes go on with it"

Apollo suddenly felt his body being taken over by a certain force. He didn't try to fight he let it be and so the corruption began eating the boy away. Slowly as he walked he could feel his skin peeling off however he didn't feel any ounce of pain. A mysterious energy had an envelope his body.

[Skill activation success!

How do you feel Creator?]

"Me? I feel weird"

He was already out of the dormitory and already walked to the academy's Park.

"What the hell" he couldn't help by exclaimed when he saw his reflection on a pond.
