That afternoon, once the lesson is finished, Keyla left all of her belongings in the bedroom and proceeded to the restroom to disinfect the toilets. She had previously done similar work at her grandfather's house. She put on a pair of rubber gloves and a toilet brush shortly after she arrived and started scrubbing the toilet in the first cubicle.
While she's scrubbing the toilet's bowl, she heard a sneer behind her
"God, this is amusing to watch than I imagined."
Keyla looked behind her and saw the girl who's spreading the word to her fellow schoolmates early in the morning
Keyla ignored her and continues to scrub the surface of the toilet.
The girl pushed the cart full of cleaning equipments. The noise echoes across the whole restroom.
"Oh, I am so sorry, let me help you with it," the girl stated and started throwing the things out of the restroom. The cleaning equipments have scattered in the corridor
Keyla glared at her as the girl stated, "Go get it, doggie. Go on,"
Keyla went out to pick it up. The liquids from the toilet bowl cleaner leaked throughout the floor.
"What an obedient dog you are, Madris! You look so pitiful, just like your mother decades ago. Your grandfather must've been force to raise such nuisance brat like yo---"
The girl wasn't able to finish her sentence because Keyla threw the toilet brush directly to her face.
"How dare you throw that filthy thing at me!?" The girl screams
Keyla uttered, "Between you and that toilet brush; you're definitely the most filthy."
The girl sneered, "I cannot believe you just said those words to me. But it's okay, I forgave you. I won't go easy on you the next time we'll meet. I'll defeat you just like how you defeated Professor Melfynn."
She bumps Keyla's shoulder before she left the restroom. Those bragging won't affect her, but she will definitely break that girl's bones the next she'll mention anything ill about her mother nor her grandfather.
Keyla picked all the equipments one by one and continues to clean the whole restroom.
After hours and hours of cleaning, she's finally satisfied as she saw how tidy the restroom is. She leans her back against the wall whilst she remove the rubber gloves from her hands. She washed her hands with water and soap before using hand sanitizer.
Keyla lets out a heavy sigh; she gaze at herself in the mirror before she left the restroom.
She stared outside the window and noticed that it's already evening. The stars sparkles above the sky, and the full moon looks stunning to witnessed
She went out to go back to her dormitory when she abruptly heard a wolf's howl. Because of her curiosity, she went towards the direction where the howl coming from.
She was dumbfounded when she saw a big werewolf near the forest.
It stopped howling and turned around as it feels Keyla's presence. Keyla slowly stepped backwards, the werewolf's red eyes frightened her.
The werewolf didn't move towards Keyla. It remains there standing and glancing at her.
Keyla run as fast as she can to escape. As soon as she arrived at her dormitory building, she catches her breath. She looked around and that werewolf is nowhere to be found, she realizes that it doesn't intend to harm her.
She went to her dorm and saw Sage lying on their living room area. She looks like she's asleep. Keyla went to her bedroom and saw Vienna lying on her pillow.
Keyla grabbed an extra pillow and a blanket; she placed it on the floor. She changed her clothes before she went to sleep
She awoke early the following morning. She promptly left the room and saw Sage lacing on her sneakers.
"Are you leaving already?" Keyla inquires.
Sage took a brief gaze at her before departed the dormitory without uttering anything. Keyla didn't stop her; she'll simply consider it as a 'yes'.
Keyla went through her early-morning routine and changed her clothes. Vienna hide into the bag just before Keyla left their dorm room. Keyla decided to get some food prior heading to her class. She purchased two sandwiches for herself and Vienna.
She slid the sandwich into her bag so Vienna could consume it. When the clock struck nine o'clock in the morning, Keyla realised she was already late, therefore she devoured a mouthful of her sandwich and dashed to her classroom.
Everyone in the class turned around to gaze at her as soon as she appeared.
Professor Daina said, "You're late, Keyla."
"I'm sorry, Professor," Keyla responds, lowering her head in apology.
"It's all right," Professor Daina breathed deeply, "just don't let this occur again especially if you cannot provide an adequate explanation for your tardiness."
Keyla did not respond. Trixi abruptly lifted her hand, "Pardon me, professor Daina."
"Yes, Lady Dankworth?""
"I believe Keyla has an acceptable reason. She received her punishment yesterday, so she's undoubtedly exhausted."
"Is that true? Alright, I'm going to let that slip for now. So, please refrain from reiterating this."
"Yes, professor, thank you," Keyla said.
"You may take a seat."
Keyla sat in the back row of the class on a vacant seat. Trixi looks at her and grins; Keyla merely returns the smile. Professor Daina resumes her potion lesson.
"We're going to make another potion today. A destruction potion. It is undoubtedly complicated, however, this is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate outstanding teamwork in the making of the potion. I'm going to give you an entire week to produce the particular potion, but if you fail to meet the due date, I'll deduct five points from your credentials." Professor Daina explained.
Inside the classroom, students murmur in exasperation.
Professor Daina noted, "You'll work in the same group, and, I believe Adonis Scheben is also a participant in this class?"
Adonis raised his left hand. He was sitting right next to Keyla.
"There you are. You have the highest number of points in this class, so I expect you to do exceptionally well in this activity," Professor Daina adds. "The group that completes the potion by the end of the week will be awarded an additional 30 points. We still have a few minutes left, therefore, make use of it to talk with the groups you belong to. If you want my assistance, you may find me in the faculty room. That's all for today, students."
Professor Daina left the classroom, and the students started to complain.
"How were we supposed to make a destruction potion within a week? It will require days just to gather the necessary components, and those components are not even available inside the Spivilion."
"Perhaps, Professor Daina might grant us an approval to go into the capital and purchase the necessary items for the potion?""
"I hope so; if I lose any of my points, I'll fret."
Trixi approaches towards Keyla's seat and says, "Oh my, they have begun to worry about the potion. I cannot blame them; destruction potions are extremely challenging to produce."
"How could we tell if we created the potion correctly? I mean, most potions can explode with little errors." Keyla asks
"Destructive potions explodes in a variety of colors, depending on which kind of glowing mushroom used as a primary component. Panellus stipticus happens to be one of those brightest-glowing bioluminescent mushrooms, thus I suggest it. However, it is entirely up to you whether or not you would utilize another luminous mushroom." Adonis stated.
"I didn't realize that you were this intelligent, Scheben," Trixi replied, but Adonis remained silent.
"I read Panellus Stipticus grows in a zone with temperature ranging from sixty-five to eighty degrees fahrenheit," Julia explained. "We could potentially able to find it on the land below"
"We're heading to the capital this coming weekend." Trixi remarked, "I'll submit an authorization letter for Professor Daina this afternoon."
Keyla responded, "Sounds good, I'm in."
"Me as well," Julia said.
"That settled it," Trixi states to both of them. "Let's collaborate once again."
