The days passed quickly, and the upcoming test Aurora had been helping Damian with was right at the corner.
They did not have sex again. Aurora was still getting used to the idea, and of course, Damian could not be the one telling her what to do. He respected her.
Magnus showed up daily to track Damian to the gym, which paid out as he got himself 2 free points in his physique status, which was great!
"Maybe training with this crazy friend of mine isn't that bad."
ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) Damian used his day to study for the text and a part of it to train in the gym. But, of course, he did not forget about Serana and Hazel; sitting with him in the courtyard near the river Darius was the last time.
"What do you mean by this secret organization? How should we start?" Serana asked.
Like Hazel, she knew more about the world and was used to it, and they were both getting classes inside Garmony, improving their battle prowess.
Serana had her vampire powers, which the school thought was her unique ability, but Damian was okay with it as long as it did not bring any trouble to them.
On the other hand, Hazel had an incredible physique, even better than Damian's after all the points he put into his stats, yet she did not know her ability.
She was someone mysterious to Damian. As for the secret organization, Damian placed his hand on Serana's lips and said, "don't say this aloud here. But yes, I want to start doing our thing today."
Serana approached him to whisper, "what do you have in mind? Are we after what? All secret organizations want something!"
Damian knew she was right. "What do I want? What should we seek?"
It was an important task. Damian, at least, wanted to unravel the mysteries of the dungeon, someone that appeared there a long time ago, yet humans were taking it too lightly.
Another thing he wanted was power. Power to control others from behind the curtains, not having to rely on fate or other organizations.
When Damian thought about these two things, something came to his mind, "I…. I want to be a villain!"
"Serana, first of all, we need a name. Do you have something in mind?" Damian asked.
Serana entered a deep thought, and Hazel, who was just beside her, said timidly, "we are an organization that will work behind the curtains, so maybe something related to shadow?"
"Shadow?"
"What do you think about The Dawn? Once dawn comes, we are there to bring the nightmare to our enemies!" Damian said.
He thought it sounded too fantasy-like, but it was still cool.
"I liked it."
"Me too."
Both girls liked the name. Damian turned his head to face Hazel and asked, "are you joining too? You must be eager to find more about the dungeon and want power in this world."
"Yes, I want to join!"
"Good."
It was only talking in the park during class break, yet Damian got himself a name for his secret organization and two members first.
They all wanted the same thing, but Damian wanted to learn more about his vision. What it meant to be the bearer of the key.
"Maybe Vanessa knows something?"
After the break, the trio left the river sight and returned to class, having one last for the day.
The teacher? The school hired a new one to teach about craft-related things, which Damian found interesting.
He had bought two items from his shop already, so he knew how valuable a good item was for someone, especially during battles.
"Today is just a class for you to understand how things work, but tomorrow, we will start our practice, crafting things," Sebastian said.
Sebastian was this new teacher who had parted orange hair and perfect skin. Another thing that stood out was how young he looked!
"Is he truly young, or maybe something related to his ability?" Damian thought.
The first class with Sebastian was all about him introducing himself and explaining how the classes would work. It was a common occurrence for first classes, so they did not do anything at all, only listened to what he had to say.
After the day, Damian went looking for Vanessa and still lived in that restaurant thing that was also her room.
A few times, Damian knocked on the door, and someone came, "Damian? What are you doing here?"
Vanessa had not seen Damian many times after he returned. She was busy teaching, especially with this tournament in a few months. Darius wanted all the teachers to work harder and even hired Sebastian.
"May I come in?"
She saw no reason to deny him, so she moved to the side and let Damian inside.
There were a few things Damian wanted to know — he did not know if Vanessa would have the answers, but asking her would not hurt.
"Sit, please. Do you want something to drink? Water? Coffee? Tea? Soda?"
"Coffee would be good."
Vanessa returned to the kitchen with two cups of coffee, sitting right before Damian.
"So, what do you want to know?" Vanessa said.
Damian sipped his coffee and said, "when the dungeons appeared and all these monsters, did some energy come along with it?"
The first question was about the mysterious energy Damian needed to cast the spells on his necromancy book.
He had the ability inside his system, but it did not work like his Telekineses, and the spells needed not only a chant but for him to channel this mysterious energy.
"Oh? Yes, it did. The dungeons itself are made of this energy, just like all the 'mutated monsters' you see around, and even us,"
"You see, we could not feel this new energy that was in our atmosphere before, but once someone takes the serum, it changes the body of the user, making it way more powerful, akin to that of the mutated beasts, and it makes you feel this energy,"
"That's how we use our abilities. Someone cannot see the energy, and the feeling may be almost invisible, but we can still use our abilities, and the more you learn how to feel and use this energy in the atmosphere, the better,"
"This energy is called Mana. I know, the scientists that discovered it probably were fans of fantasy books."
Vanessa explained many things, and it gave Damian light. He was ready to ask her more things, but a knocking came from the front door.
"Who is it?" She said, yet no one answered, making Damian and her turn stiff.
