c45: Our Hope (2)

Mira the wind Affinity teacher smirked, but there was respect in it now. "Oh, I’m excited. My students are strong, I wonder how he would fair. He should be there next tomorrow. 11 AM. Wind Affinity Arena."

Rose exhaled. She hadn’t realized she was holding her breath.

"Thank you," she said.

She stood, and the meeting was over.

As she walked out, Jace called after her. "Rose Firehart. If this guy is overhyped and it..."

"It won’t," Rose said without turning around. "Because he’s not just strong. He’s the reason we’ll win."

The door closed behind her.

In the room, four teachers looked at each other.

"Do you think he’s going to be among your top 10 strongest student to fight against the Year 3 Earth Affinity students? I’m oddly curious about him," Mira asked Thomas.

Thomas stood up and started walking to the door. "I don’t know. I’ll find out tomorrow."

...

Lynx was lying on his bed, chatting with Emily and Kira. He and Emily were flirting back and forth, the messages getting bolder by the minute.

Emily sent him a picture of her in panties, her hands were used to cover her breasts. No bra. Lynx stared at it, grinning. "Damn this girl. Just one day and she’s already sending hot pictures like this.... But she’s hot as hell."

Lynx was zooming the photo in and out when a new notification from Rose popped up.

"Finally," he grinned.

[Rose: It’s done, you’re fighting tomorrow. No resting for you again. (Photo)]

He opened the picture she sent and saw his schedule. The other Affinity teachers had accepted Rose’s proposal for him to participate and be the thirtieth student of their various classes.

He’s fighting at the Ice Affinity Arena tomorrow at 8 AM. His goal is to be among the top 10 strongest Ice Affinity Year 2 students and fight against the Ice Affinity Year 3 students. Then he will be among the chosen two Ice Affinity Year 2 student.

[Lynx: Thanks for that. You deserve a reward, my dear teacher]

[Rose: The only reward I need is you coming out of the top 10 students. Be among the students who will face the Year 3 and come out as the Top 2 Chosen Year 2 Student in all the Affinity Classes]

[Lynx: Easy peasy. When next I’m fighting at your Trial, just text me, as you know I’ll be busy from now.]

[Rose: Sure]

[Lynx: After that sweet kiss we shared, are you just going to pretend it never happened?]

Silence.

At the other side. Rose read the message.

Her cheeks burned instantly, red spreading across her face and down to her neck as she remembered the Kiss. She quickly locked her phone and tossed it away.

She didn’t reply.

Lynx just laughed. He soon got another text from Daniel telling him to come out.

"We are literally in the same room, buddy," Lynx groaned, but opened his translucent door and came out.

He saw the beautiful slutty girl who Daniel was not able to satisfy the other day. She on her knees, only on her underwear and her bra.

"Please Lynx. Come and Fuck me" the lady-Eira said in a slutty voice slowly crawling towards Lynx.

Lynx stood still, his brain still processing what’s happening.

"What the hell..".
