My Triling System

40 [Bonus chapter]Chapter 40: Identity exposed

Dan was left standing as Kevin exited the room before he could complete his statement. After he received the reply from Kevin that Lexa was outside, he immediately rushed out of the room. But he didn’t know that Dan was angry with his reaction. He counted it as ignoring and making him look like a fool.

“Hey Dan, what’s wrong between you two?” Zoe asked as he grabbed his brother on the shoulders in a brotherly way. But Dan pushed him away from him as he made his way out of the room.

“Dan! what is wrong with you!” Reed shouted.

“Just stay out of my matter.” Was the only thing Dan said to his brothers before leaving for the canteen.

“Are those two, fighting?” Reed asked.

“Who knows? I’ve never seen Dan become so angry like this in a while. Something must be wrong with him.”

“Perhaps he might need our help, but couldn’t bring himself down to ask us.”

“Then what are we brothers for when he can’t ask for our help.” Reed indicated.

“Reed, you know. there are some times when you’ll want to take care of things on your own. Let’s lie low and watch as things play out. Dan warned us to stay out of his matter anyway. Interfering might cause us a lot of problems.” Zoe concluded and his brother agreed.

Slowly from the ground, Lexa lifted her eyes to see the person standing in her way. Her eyes moved from the chest of the male up to his chin and finally to his face. She studied the person’s face but it wasn’t the face of anyone she recognized. But then, she realized that the person in front of her was one of the bullies at the school. She suddenly flinched as she took a step backward but two other elves appeared behind her back.

“W-who are you? What do you want?” All the other students could only watch and pass by her side, none of them could help her or they’ll be a victim to the bullies. The bullies were highly respected because of their parent’s status and the power they had over everyone, including the mage teachers. They were from affluent and wealthy families but are the bad guys of the school. They chose to be what they became because no one would challenge them. It has been like this ever since the academy has been created. The bad guys are always from wealthy families. They walk in groups and do as they like in school. They don’t care about attending classes or outings and no teacher dares challenge them or he’ll meet his demise. Even the most experienced and skillful teacher in the school was sacked from his job because of these bullies. The teacher resigned from being a teacher and created a private magic School and became the master of several students.

“You! you’re Lina’s sister, aren’t you?” Lexa’s eyes fluttered open in shock as she heard them mention her sister’s name. How did they know? Did her sister tell them or they did do a background search on her? She has been spending all of her days staying indoors so she won’t be recognized by everyone because of her pretty but picky sister. She wanted to avoid males asking her to beg her sister. Or even bribing her with gifts so her sister would accept their plead and marry them.

Because of this, she had to tell the academy to change her surname to something else as she wanted to stay as a different person in the academy. She didn’t want anyone to see her as the daughter of the second wealthiest family in the kingdom. But, seeing how this man knew that she was Lina’s sister, made her realize that her identity as been linked to them. Despite how much she wanted to keep her identity hidden, these men finally found out. But now what? They can’t force her to talk the shit into her sister.

“Seeing how shocked you were, I guess I was right. You are Lina’s sister. Wait, aren’t you the one that wanted to start a fight back at the canteen?” The elf said as he smirked at Lexa causing her to flinch in fright once again. “I was wondering how someone like you could be so brave enough to challenge us if not for the position and pride you have.”

The elves laughed sinisterly and then, the leader continued with his speech.

“I’m not here to hurt you. Your sister is quite gullible unlike you. You seem so cool like your ice magic. Perhaps your sister would have been cooler if she had the ice magic you have.”

“What do you want, my sister is in her office you can just go and meet her anytime you wish. There’s nothing I can do for you. She doesn’t listen to me, so let me go.” Lexa exclaimed as she tried running away, but the elves circled her and stopped her from making a move.

“Do you think you can run away from us like that? We’re here to see you not your sister.” one of the elves said.

“Then, what exactly do you want from me!” Lexa shouted in anger. She was getting furious seeing everyone passing by and ignoring her. None of them even tried to challenge the bullies. Why? So this is what it feels like to be bullied. Lexa prayed silently within herself for someone to rescue her. She wished she was able to contact her sister for help. But she knew she won’t answer even if she had the phone to contact her. She had told her yesterday that she won’t need her help ever again, so it’s not sure she would come to help her. But luckily for her, someone had challenged the men. Lexa heaved a sigh of relief as she heard the person shout at the bully to leave her alone.

‘ May the good Lord bless whosoever is coming to rescue me.’ Lexa said as she opened her already-shut eyes to look at the person coming to her aid.

“What?!” Hey, eyes widened with shock.
