Chapter 47 "I consider you have a lot of questions however worry not, your buddies are safe." Then Humfree's expression changed into a serious one. "All except for Jasmine that is." Ray had concept what he had seen earlier than he exceeded out, was a dream or section of his imaginative and prescient however with Humfree's words it solely verified it. Gary had slain Jasmine. "Have I been out long?" Ray asked. "It has been a complete week." Ray couldn't accept as true with what he had just been told, a total week, used to be he virtually in such a awful state? Ray had by no means felt this vulnerable before. "You're lucky to be alive," Humfree said earlier than whispering the important points to Ray. "It appears like Jasmine was possessed by the shadow plague and she had tried to homicide you. She covered the blade with a deadly poison that is used only to hunt the most ferocious of Magical Beasts. We have no clue where she managed to discover such a thing. Or how long she had been underneath the control of the shadow plague." "How am I nonetheless alive?" "I discover myself asking that precise equal question, fortuitously you bought to me simply in time, generally if a poison like this used to be to be used on a human, they would die instantly however your physique fought off the poison well." "How did I get to the hospital?" Ray asked. "Two of your friends waited with you whilst the others went lower back to the academy to are looking for help. They finally managed to find Wilfred who took a one of a kind course to get to you quicker." Although Humfree did not say what this distinct course was, Ray could take a bet that it used to be most in all likelihood the pink door in the academy. It was once how Wilfred was probable capable to get to Ray so fast as soon as he knew of their location. Humfree then sighed whilst searching at Ray. "You and your friends are in serious trouble. The elders have referred to as forth an emergency assembly to talk about what to do with you and your friends." Ray clenched his proper fist, "You mean, every person could be kicked out of the academy?" Humfree nodded, "You have committed a serious crime, located secrets that need to in no way be reviled to a knight specifically students like yourselves." Ray used to be annoyed, after finding out that the Divine being was once placed at Avrion and no longer Roland, Ray felt like he used to be closer to discovering what had happened to him. He couldn't be kicked out of the academy now. Ray then thought of something else. Why did Jasmine attempt to kill him? Yes, she used to be underneath the affect of the shadow plague and he had plans to deal with them later however so far, he had finished nothing to aggravate them. For all they knew, he was once just a pupil at an academy. Was it a random attack or all deliberate out? Ray wished that Gary had managed to restrain Jasmine alternatively than outright killing her. Perhaps then Ray would have been in a position to query her by way of the use of Dragon's fact on her. While Ray was deep in notion Humfree continued. "You will be watched from now on, even though you might also not see them out and about there will always be anyone to protect you." This was once some thing Ray actually didn't desire to hear. If the academy despatched any person to watch him how would he be in a position to act on his own. "We a.d.u.l.ts made a mistake, we must have watched all the red-haired kids closely from the start, though there was once some who did not take the prophecy significantly there are now many who do." After announcing the entirety Humfree wanted to say he obtained up to leave the room. As he did, Ray decided to close his eyes and get some rest. He could still experience that his physique was being affected by the poison and he currently felt very vulnerable due to the fact of it. A few moments later and Ray may want to hear the sound of footsteps drawing close him. Ray without delay opened his eyes thinking that it could be the enemy however it was once a acquainted face to him, it was Wilfred. Wilfred looked down at Ray and had an expression on his face as if he used to be disenchanted in his son for doing some thing bad. "Ray I thinking you may want to trust me, why didn't you come to me if you had things to ask, now I fear that it is too late to help you," Ray felt a little damage from Wilfred's words. Wilfred had constantly been great to him for the reason that he had met him however Ray could not believe anyone. After finding out about the red liquid and the Pure blood's, Ray did not comprehend who to have confidence and again simply now anyone who he regarded close to him had attacked him and tried to kill him. "I am not part of the elders so it is now up to them to make a decision," Wilfred said as he became away from Ray and left the room. All Ray ought to do now used to be take a seat there and wait for the selection of the elders. The subsequent day had come and the solar used to be shining thru the window brightly into the sanatorium room. Ray was currently staring outdoor the window as there wasn't a good deal he may want to do. Ray had managed to make a full healing and may want to move his physique properly again. When Ray tried to depart the room there had been two knights stationed outside that told him he used to be to continue to be in the room until in addition notice. Although Ray would have no trouble taking out the two knights and ignoring their orders. Ray thought it was possibly quality no longer to, especially when he had a trial coming up. Finally, after waiting for some time a man had arrived and entered the room. He was there to escort Ray to the trial room. The man regarded Ray up and then earlier than announcing anything. "Your trial is set to begin, please observe me." The man did not look blissful about the venture he was once given, as if he was told to go gather a dog or some thing and Ray should sense this however regardless of all of this, Ray agreed to comply with the man. Eventually, the man led Ray to the courthouse in the city. It was once a massive constructing that was just as large as the dorms at the academy. Ray idea it used to be vain to have some thing this massive in a city particularly a courtroom. Because most of the residents staying in Avrion where knights themselves, the courtroom used to be hardly used. Only when a knight would smash the policies of the metropolis would they be summoned to the courthouse. So trials hardly ever ever happened. Standing simply backyard the large two doors the place the mysterious black knights. The man and Ray walked straight past them and entered the courthouse. The court was once large and looked comparable to the eating corridor interior Avrion academy. With art work of famous knights on the wall. At the lower back of the courthouse have been six throne-like chairs were every of the elders sat. Each one of them had a Black knight via their side. To the left of them was a table were the 5 master knights sat inclusive of Wilfred and Sir K. There was once additionally a bannister in the middle of the room that separated the room into two halves. One for the elders and instructors and the rest for the convicted. On a table simply on the other side of the bannister have been Ray's friends. Slyvia, Martha, Monk, Dan, Kyle and Gary. Each one of them appeared extremely anxious and had been light in the face. The man endured to lead Ray till he subsequently motioned Ray to sit down next to his Friends. One of the elders who sat in the middle then stood up to speak. "I remind you all, you can also solely communicate if you have been granted permission to speak." The old man paused to see if the teenagers understood before continuing. "May this trial begin." "What is there to speak of, these teens have broken the laws they be banished." An elder said. Many of the elders nodded their head in settlement from these words. But there was once nevertheless hope for Ray and the others as Ray had a close connection with the old man at the martial hall, who was additionally an elder. "May I remind each person about Ray's importance, he is most probably the infant foretold in the prophecy." The historical man said. Then one of the elders stood up in anger. He was once a quick fat historic man with ginger hair named Gibby. "Since when have we knights been so weak that we have to count number on children to retailer us. We have continually dealt with matters ourselves and we will carry on to do so. Do you clearly believe this boy has what it takes to defeat the shadow plague?" Gibby Shouted. Sir K then stood up from the aspect and spoke out of turn, he may want to no longer take it anymore. "Are these no longer the adolescents that fended off the Dark guild for us? When we as the academy deserted them. I see you dealt with matters very well lower back at the arena!" "How dare you speak to an elder like that!" Gibby shouted back. "Is what Sir K said no longer true?" The historic man asked. The elders and Gibby felt barely embarrassed by the total situation that had befell at the arena. Gibby then sat again down in his seat before persevering with to speak. "Even if that is true, we did now not destroy any legal guidelines whilst they did and the laws ought to be followed at all costs." Then another elder started out to speak, Ray hadn't seen till now because the cloak was covering his face most of the time but he acknowledged this man as well. It used to be Humfree the leader at the hospital. "I agree with at the very least that Ray Talen need to be allowed to remain at the academy." The rest of Ray's buddies gulped as they heard these words. They knew that many individuals thinking Ray used to be important for the Academy however what about them? All they were acknowledged as were Ray's friends. "And what do the master knights think? You have recognized the college students for the longest time?" Gibby asked. Delbert was once the first to speak up. "The Divine Being is the one who had set these laws on us in the first place and they broke them. I believe the Divine Being is testing us, if we do no longer observe its guidelines and expel every one of them then we will be punished." "Beautifully said." Shouted Gibby as he had a massive grin on his face. "I agree also," Rose replied. Martha's heart sank after listening to those words. Rose had been her instructor for the longest time as the chief of the inexperienced sashes and idea she would have at least stuck up for her. "Then I agree with it is time for the elders to forged their vote," Gibby said. "We shall name out the names of every scholar one by means of one." "All those in favour of banishing Gary Bluebird from Avrion elevate your hand." All of the elders had raised their hand. Suddenly Everyone's face at the table was once in shock at what they had simply seen. As if reality had just hit them. "You can't do this!" Gary shouted. "We gave our blood for this academy!" Gibby persevered to talk coldly. "Gary bluebird, you are now banished from Avrion town until death, if you talk again we will have the Black knight escort you out of the courtroom." Everyone sat at the table was once now unmoving after hearing the selection made about Gary. The reality that now not even one elder had voted for Gary to stay in the academy, came as a shock. Gary was the number one ranked scholar out of the second years, if he did not get any leeway then the others already knew the end result of their vote. Gibby then went on with the subsequent vote. "All those in favour of banishing Monk, please elevate your hand." Again, just like before all of the elders had raised their hand. It used to be all too a whole lot for Monk as he began to burst into tears. Gibby overlooked Monk's cries and continued on to the subsequent vote. "All these in favour of Banishing Dan please raise your hand." Again, the equal result. Dan mumbled cursing the academy underneath his breath. His fist was clenched hard. The vote continued and each result was once the identical for Martha and Kyle who were too started up to even make any kind of reaction. Finally, it was once down to the closing two, Slyvia and Ray. Before Gibby could even say Slyvia's identify she stood up in protest. "How can you do this to us? I do remind you that I am phase of the Heart family and if you chose to proceed with this, the relationship with the Hearts' and this academy will be broken." "She's right about that," Humfree said. "There shall be no unique cure regardless of who or what history you have, guidelines are rules." The vote endured with two of the elders in favour of Slyvia staying and the rest for banishment. The choice had been made. Before Slyvia sat returned in her seat she had one final issue to say. "You will all remorseful about this." Finally, it was time for Ray's vote. When requested the question about banishment similar to Slyvia, two of the elders had been in favour of Ray staying while the different four agreed to banishment. "As I stated justice has prevailed," Gibby said. Ray wasn't shifting even though and he wasn't reacting however beneath his calm look, his blood used to be at boiling point. Ray was currently identifying whether he have to just assault the elders proper here and now and take over the academy but there was once one thing stopping him. The black knights. For some purpose their presence worried Ray, this uncertainty was once what brought on Ray now not to act. "We shall have a knight escort them to their dorms and remain on protect until they can be sent ." Just as the two knights started to move, the old man stood up. "Wait, no one shall be doing anything." "The vote has been cast old man, there is nothing you can do to change that," Gibby said. The historic man then smiled at Gibby before giving his answer. "I hereby relinquish my seat as an elder and pick Ray Talen as my successor." "What, can he do that?" One of the elders asked. "Just what are you thinking." Gibby cried out. "An Elder can see the Divine being each time they wish and can name anybody as their successor. With this, Ray will be exempt from the banishment correct?" Gibby gritted his tooth in anger, why would an elder go this some distance for a student. Then a concept got here to his mind. "Ha, you forget about one element historical man, for before a successor can be chosen, the grasp knights need to forged a vote." Gibby started out to laugh. "All these in favour of Ray becoming an elder of Avrion Raise your hand." But the next scene nearly gave Gibby a heart attack, for three out of the five master knights had raised their hand. Bernardo, Wilfred and Sir K had raised their hand, while Rose and Delbert didn't. "How? this has in no way took place in the records of our kingdom, how can we allow a kid to have a seat as an elder!" "I accept as true with have been no longer breaking any rules." Sir K stated with a grin. It used to be the first time any of the students had considered Sir K smile. "Fine however that does not let the relaxation are off. The relaxation will still be banished." For a short moment, while the entirety was once going on, the students had forgotten about the state of affairs they were in. Although now Ray was secure this didn't mean they were. Slyvia then abruptly thinking she had observed a loophole in the system. She whispered to Ray and gave him instructions to which he nodded and then said. "I want to relinquish my position as elder and identify Gary as my successor." Gibby had nearly fallen out of his seat along with the other elders as they heard these words. Then the ancient man commenced to smile. "It looks like these students have overwhelmed you in a sport of chess," The old man said. After Ray gave up his function to Gary the same aspect had occurred with the master knights voting Gary in. As an Ex elder they had permission to understand the secret of the academy and there was no punishment for seeing the Divine being. The group endured to do this, vote casting in each and every one of them as an elder, until finally, the final person's title was once known as which used to be Slyvia. Once Slyvia had been voted in as an elder she then realised that there was no one else that wished to be cast, so she decided to provide it lower back to the historic man. The ancient man who had started out this complete mess, his actual name was once Von. He had been at the academy because the Dragon knights had existed and knew something wished to be changed. He looked at the students and concept they had been exactly the type of thing this academy needed. "I relinquish my role as elder and title Von as my successor." Von then shook his head. "I'm afraid young lady, that is now not possible. Once an elder has given up their function they can no longer attain that title again." "Wait! Does that mean!" A consciousness abruptly hit Slyvia. The man then said. "You are now one of the elders at Avrion academy, Slyvia Heart." Ray and the others seemed at Slyvia standing there in the elder's seat and couldn't assume of a higher character who ought to alternate and lead the academy. Although Gibby may want to no longer get rid off or kick the college students out of the academy, Gibby used to be nonetheless an Elder and ordered that the students be kept below watch for a few days. A couple of the knights did as they were instructed and escorted the students again to their dorms. The old man Von, had been requested to become Slyvia's adviser. The different Elders had no desire however to accept. Slyvia did not have a clue what Elders without a doubt did or any of the rules. Von would now recommendation Slyvia on selections and try his first-rate to catch Slyvia up to speed. This also, of course, meant that Slyvia was once no longer a student. Although she would be free to teach as she wished, she wouldn't be capable to attend lessons and hunt like the others however that wasn't absolutely a quintessential aspect for elders in the first place. Back at the dorm, the knights had simply finished escorting Ray and the others returned to their room. Once the others had entered the room, the two knights stored guard by the door, making certain that no one was once allowed out. "This entire element is crazy!" Kyle said. "Slyvia is officially an elder now, how did that even happen?"
