From MC's perspective:

I'm trying hard to control the turmoil in my heart. Carlos Kent's smile is unkind. He is looking at me like prey.

There is one way to get through this other than that to listen to him.

"Faction Head?" I said with a half smile on my face.

"Zack Lockwood, take your seat," Carlos said casually.

But I'm getting no good vibes at all. Nodding my head, I sat opposite him. 

"Zack, you and your team have failed to complete the mission. What is your response?" Carlos asked.

Hearing that I cursed in my heart. This guy is still thinking about the mission. 

"Faction Head, we were surrounded by rogue warriors. If not for the timely help of local forces we would have been dead."

"I hope you remember that," I answered.

"Presumptuous," Carlos scolded and immediately released a faint pressure. 

"F@ck, I slipped..," Before I could finish my words. I was crushed under heavy physical coercion.

Crash~

My body smashed into the floor. The coercion was so sudden that I was caught off guard.

Pfff~

Blood splattered. My bones are making cracking sounds. "I knew it," I said in my heart. Carlos Kent is not a good person.

I hope someone comes to save me. Under heavy physical coercion. My inner organs are suffering damage.

I knew Carlos had kept his hand. But still, this small amount of pressure was unfathomable.action

Carlos was displeased by Zack's response. But he didn't intend to do it in the first place.

Seeing that he is slowly losing consciousness. He removed the pressure the next moment. "I was hasty," Carlos muttered. His eyes flickered with a cold glint.

He is not the most powerful person in the academy yet. There is still the supreme elder above him. So he should wait properly for the appropriate time.

Meanwhile, I noticed the pressure was gone. Right after, the immeasurable pain attacked my senses. The pain was many times higher than the blood element method practice.

The splitting headache was so much. I'm fighting to gain a trace of clarity. 

Carlos Kent sent a message to someone. After a few minutes, someone came to the door. 

"Send him to his dormitory room," Carlos ordered.

Right after, I felt someone dragging my body away. Before I knew it, I found myself in a familiar place.

Even with the spitting headache, I tried to look around. After confirming that I was thrown in front of my dorm room. 

I tried to get up. After a few minutes, I managed to stand up on one leg. Then I hurriedly entered the code to enter my room.

Creak~

The door opened. I walked in and headed to my bed to lie down. 

Front the beginning to end. I felt like a worst nightmare.

Meanwhile,

Carlos is impulsive. He knew he would get a full earring from the dean. She has already been suspecting him. 

If she finds out about my small punishment, she will think I'm deliberately targeting him.

So he carefully thought of a plan. He immediately sent a report to the Supreme Elder. He stated about Zack's bad conduct towards him. 

Carlos also mentioned about his little punishment in that message. Now if the dean wants to complain. The supreme elder won't suspect him.

After arranging everything, he went to his private secluded training room. He won't come back for a few days. 

Because it will take a few days for Zack to heal. Then he will send him outside of Viper City again for a mission. Where he will be taking Zack Lockwood's life. 

Meanwhile,

Lying down on my bed. I concentrated on my body. But my body was not in a good condition. Fortunately, in this kind of situation. I have already prepared myself. There is a dark green essence in my dantian.

I have decided to run the wood scripture to heal myself slowly. Right after, the dark green essence starts to reach all of my inner organs.

Where there is heavy injury, the dark essence was more concentrated at that spot. 

Healing is a time-consuming process. So I forgot about the time and fully focused on healing myself. 

2 days later,

I was still lying down on my bed. But my complexion was better than before. I felt my inner organs were not in a serious condition anymore. 

But my dark green essence was consumed completely. Now I have to cultivate again. But before that, I made up my mind to consume healing pills. 

As an added security, this pill will help me recover from unknown dangers. 

I sat cross-legged on the bed. I brought the healing pill outside from my storage ring. Then I consumed it in one go. 

Then I started to run the wood scripture to maximize the benefits. The pill energy entered my body and started to flow through my meridians.

After circulation, the remaining small cracks in my bones all disappeared completely. Seeing that a hint of relief flashes in my eyes. 

1 hour later,

Black impurities came out of my body. When I opened my eyes after refining the pill energy. The bad smell attacked my nostrils. 

Seeing the thick black sludge all over my skin. My eyes shone with bright light. This situation only happens after a large breakthrough. 

But looking at my condition now. I think it's a blessing in disguise. Carlos harmed me. But I got an improvement in strength as a result.

Then I got up from my bed to clean myself. After 20 minutes, I changed into a fresh set of clothes. When I accessed my communication watch. I saw many notifications.

Most of them are from Ernest and Laverne. Even the dean had called me one time. My eyes flickered with a slight glint.

I guess there was no chance for the dean to know about this. Her call might be casual. She might have wanted to know about my situation.

When it comes to Ernest and Laverne. I won't tell them. This piece of news would certainly horrify them.

What about the dean? Should I call her back? 

Shaking my head, I decided to postpone for a while. Carlos Kent's behavior had scared me. That guy didn't show any mercy at all.

Just a small slip of the tongue on my part. But he handled me heavily. What to do? It's impossible to fight against him. He is a half-step SSS Elite Warrior. He is slightly weaker than the dean.

It's impossible to go against him until I get help from Jonathan. I hope he will do something about it. Then shaking my head, I decided to stay in my room until I got a call from Jonathan.

Who knows if I go outside, there is a good chance for Carlos to summon me again. Which is not good for me.

Meanwhile,

Ernest and Lavenre, both of them are concerned about Zack. The duo have heard that Zack had shut himself in his room. Which was not a good sign at all.

Especially Zack is not picking up his call. Which further made them worry. 

In the special faction common room, these two were discussing. 

Beep~

The next moment, both of their communication lights lit up with the notification. 

When the duo saw the contact name. Both of them are petrified on the spot. The message was from none other than Carlos Kent.

"He is back," Laverne uttered in shock. She starts panicking.

"He summoned me," Ernest said in a solemn tone.

"He summoned me as well," Laverne said after reading the message.

For a moment, both remained silent. No need to tell. Both of them felt bad. 

"Ernest, we should avoid this message,"Laverne said in a trembling tone. She fears that the faction head would again send them for a deadly mission.

A small sweet bead appears on Ernest's forehead. Which shows how worried he is right now? 

"It's impossible to deny his order. If we do that, then he has the right to take disciplinary action against us," Ernest said after calculating everything.

He didn't find any good solution to escape from this summons Zack's situation is already troubling their minds. On top of it, they got this summon. 

"Ernest, do something," Laverne asked. She is on the verge of mental breakdown.

Seeing her condition, Ernest missed Michael right now. He was currently in retreat. Without Michael and Zack, both of them are helpless.

"Retreat?" Ernest uttered. His eyes shone with the bright light. 

Laverne quickly understood from his words. 

"Yes, we can enter in seclusion. No one can force us to appear," Laverne added. A trace of hope appeared in her heart.

Ernest weighed in. How to proceed with this? Two of them can't retreat after getting this summon.

Because Ernest thinks that Faction Head knows their whereabouts. That's why he is asking both of them to appear in his office.

If both of them go for retreat, then it will lead to more disciplinary action against them.

Suddenly, Ernest turned toward her and said,"Laverne, you should leave immediately for retreat. Don't come back until you get a message from me or Zack."

A look of disbelief appeared on Laverne's face.
