Chapter 203: a commotion



Chapter 203: a commotion

['What!? Do I look like I can control such a thing?! The thing comes on its own!!'] Alex fumed. Al's blame was uncalled for.

Al ignored Alex and looked around for a possible spot that he could use to sneak out of the area but he couldn't find any. The staff had already lined themselves around in strategic positions that left no blind spots.

['Blame your stinking luck this time. This is the second time that you are going to be searched. The first time was that short man devil named sully that we stole from.'] Alex pointed out.

Al still ignored Alex, he had more pressing matters at hand now. ['Damn that b*tch Hinata. Even after she's dead, she is still causing problems for me. Ahh! I just had to make Lex pick her damn ring up!! I need to find a way to escape or a place to hide at least.'] Al thought.

['You guys don't suppose that they will let me go into the guest inn if I said that I needed to use the bathroom, would they?'] Al asked a stupid question and he wasn't given a reply. ['Damn! I should have just stayed in the damn bunker and explored some more. Why in the hell was I eager to leave?'] Al added.

Al frowned, if he could squeeze his face more than it was already was, he would have done so.

While he was in his thoughts, thinking of how he was going to twist himself out of this, he didn't notice the rest of his teammates approach him.

"Alex," Camron called out when he arrived beside Al.

"Alex," He called out again but Al was too deep into his thoughts.

"Alex." This time, Camron was about to use his hand to tap Al's shoulder.

Just as Camron's hand was a few inches from Al's shoulder, Al snapped out his thoughts and caught Camron's hand on instincts.

He twisted his arm and was about to break it. Reacting quickly and appropriately, Camron jumped and unwounded his twist arm. That in turn, twisted Al's hand.

Al too did the same thing that Camron did to unwound his hand, he was about to change his attack pattern when he realized who it was that he was about to attack. Seeing that it was Camron, he paused.

"Oh, it's you," Al uttered disappointedly. He was just getting into the mood to fight." Al straightened himself. The little dance of theirs attracted a few eyes over to them.

"Haven't I warned you not to touch me willy-nilly?" Al immediately said in his defense.

"Your instincts are too savage." Camron held the wrist of the hand that Al grabbed. That part of his Hand was feeling a bit sore.

"I thought it was someone else," Al said. That his way of apologizing.

"Ahh, don't worry about it. Apology accepted." Camron flashed him a small smile.

"But I didn't apologize," Al mentioned.

"You didn't have to, I had a feeling that you were though."

"Ahh! I don't have the time to argue. I can't let these guys check my ring."

"Again!?" Drake and the rest were stunned. They could clearly remember the first time that something like this happened. Al didn't cave in and he even threatened the person that was demanding to search him.

'They still don't know that he is class-1 primordial bloodline class and that he's royalty.' Camron sighed. 

"Why are you so bent on not having anyone look into your storage ring? I mean understand that you don't want people to have an idea of what you have, but this is the school, they don't dare take your belongings without a valid reason." Drake said.

"Who said that there's no valid reason in my ring?" Al scowled at Drake. He didn't mind revealing it to them, after all, they know about the last one that happened. Him stealing the pills.

Hearing this from him, they recalled what happened the last time that something like this occurred. He was the one that stole the primrose pills last time and when they demanded to check his storage ring, he didn't comply with them.

"What!?" Camron exclaimed.

"Don't tell me that" Adrian's eyes opened wide as he looked at Al. 'Did he kill those people last night? Wait, that can't be, he shouldn't be able to kill a sky realm cultivator.' He looked at Al with fear in his eyes.

So did the rest, except for Camron. Camron was just stunned. Knowing why they were looking at him like that, Al decided to let the cat of the bag.

"I used poison." He uttered lightly and hissed. "What they are searching for is that b*tch's ring and her ring is inside my storage ring." He hissed again.

They all swallowed the saliva in their mouth and looked around

"How do we get you out of here?" Emma asked as she looked around.

Although Al had told them that he was the culprit that they were looking for, he didn't expect any of them to want to help him escape. He frowned as stared at Emma.

"What?" Al uttered. "You do know that if I get caught you guys might be considered as my associates and partners in crime?" Al questioned. He couldn't understand her decision to want to implicate herself.

"Do you plan on staying here?" Emma frowned at him. She looked more scared and concerned about the repercussions that will happen if Al does get caught.

"I" Al was still processing the supposed concern that she was showing to him.

"Don't tell me that you plan on staying here?" Adrian questioned. "You can't stay here, we are going to help you leave the area. After you've left, you have to go somewhere and hide for 2 or 3 days." Adrian added.

['Hey, what's going on, what are they talking of?'] Al thought.

Al gave the same look that he gave to Emma, to Adrian.

"Alex, leave this to us. We'll figure something out." Katherine added.

Camron chuckled. "Although I don't know why you killed the students, and I quote 'b*tch', but I do think that you had a valid reason, even if you didn't I will still help you whenever you are in a situation like this." He said.

['What is wrong with them? Why are they trying to implicate their selves? I hate goody toes shoes like this. Or are they trying to make me pay for the help that they are about to offer? Yes that should be it.'] A lot of questions went through his mind.

['I think they are genuinely trying to help you.'] Lex interjected.

['Why would they do that, even I think that it is almost impossible to escape from this place. What can they possibly do if I can't do it by myself? I just don't think that any reasonable person would risk all these in the name of giving a genuine help.'] Al argued.

['Some people are just like that. They consider you to be their friend.'] Lex stated.

['Nah, they just think that if anything happens to me they wouldn't be able to grow as fast as they are with me around. We are the rumored treasure seeker after all.'] Al was still couldn't believe that they didn't have a motive behind this.

To him, in other to risk there must be something to gain. And there was nothing for them to gain by doing this for him.

['They must want something from me. Forget it, if they can make this happen then I might just grant them what they want.'] Al pushed that thought to the side and focused on the problem at hand.

"What do you guys have in mind?" Al shook his head before he asked.

"Umm, I have nothing yet," Emma answered. She really wants to help Al but she's not good at making plans like this.

"What about you?" He looked at Adrian.

"I don't have anything in mind yet," Adrian said.

Al looked at the rest before he sighed. "What did I expect from a bunch of leeches, I even have to help them to help me by telling them how to help me." He whispered to himself. "I am definitely going to slash anything that you guys are going to ask for as payment by half." He added.

"Just wait for me to think of something." Al looked around again.

There were students still coming to this site and they weren't small in number. All the staff that was there were just standing and doing nothing yet. Al closed his eyes and started to think of a plan.

"How about we just cause a commotion and draw their attention away? Then you can use that opportunity to run away." Drake spoke up.

Al frowned. "Shut up please, I'm trying to thin-" He paused and opened his eyes as an idea hit him. "Wait, a commotion? That might actually work." A mischievous smile crawled up Al's lips as he thought of a possible and feasible plan.

Al started to unbutton his shirt.

['Hey!! What are you trying to do?'] Alex asked.

"Alex, what are you doing?" Emma was the first to notice that Al was unbuttoning his shirt.

"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm going to strip right here" Al smirked at his answer. He finished unbuttoning and proceeded to remove his shirt.

-Gasp!

Emma and some female bystanders gasped as soon as they saw Al's upper body.
