Agartha Quest For The Legacy - Chapter 34 Come Out. I Know You Are There

“Ha ha.” Amelia’s laughter was chilly and echoed through the room as she sat in front of the desk and looked at the Dean, her eyes penetrating his soul. He felt that she could understand all the underlying deception. He did not dare to breathe out loud. Her intimidating presence was enough to scare him. He never thought that a gentle and demure lady like Amelia could do anything to him. He was wrong for the second time in his life. The first time was when he underestimated Brad. He held his breath for her to utter the next sentence, but it never came.

Deathly silence permeated the room before he saw her look at a distance and utter, “Come out. I know you are there.”

“Wha..” He was going to ask her when he saw a shadow from the corner of his eye. He was so frightened that he almost fell off his reclined chair. He cursed his luck. “Why did everything happen today?”

He saw Brad was holding something in his hand and from the window he asked, “May I come in, Sir?” His voice was extremely sarcastic to the point of giving him chills.

“Yes, Mr. Holman, but I’m afraid it isn’t the best place to come through.”

Brad jumped from the window sill, perfectly landing on the solid marble floor and said, “Never mind Sir. I just came in to return your book.”

“Ah, that. You can keep it.”

“No Sir, how can I do that? After all it is your precious treasure.” Brad’s voice was laced with extreme sarcasm as he eyed the middle-aged man on the other end of the desk and said, “Mind if I take a seat Sir?”

Mr. Collen looked at Brad, his mouth agape. Brad answered his own question, “I guess you don’t. No problem then.” Brad pulled the chair beside Amelia and sat down. He gave her a reassuring smile. Olympia stood behind him and released her aura to sense all the happenings nearby. She knew something was up from the moment she saw those idiots going around this place with those ‘weapons’. She heard those bunch of puny humans mentioning her Master. She knew that they had evil intentions. She glanced at the lowly human sitting in front of them and saw him holding another device in his hand. ‘Master said it was ‘mo..’ What was it again?’ Olympia thought to herself. Anyway, let’s not bother with it. She cheered herself for being intelligent. She slowly enhanced her hearing, and heard the commotion from downstairs.

“Why were we not informed that someone had some illicit relation with a teacher and they are just riding on that teacher’s coattails and entering some championship?”

“The Nation wants to know why the education system has degraded so much.”

“Why was that person given free pass to attend any event on behalf of this University?”

There were barrage of questions which puzzled Olympia. ‘Those puny humans shout too much. My ears are deafened because of it.’ She thought in her mind before deciding to relay them to Brad.

“Master, we have a problem here. Those puny humans are saying something probably bad.”

“What?” Brad asked and Olympia relayed the content of her information she heard.

“Interesting.” He muttered to himself and then cleared his throat before he stared at the Dean and said, “Mr. Collen, I have an interesting story. Do you want to listen?”

“Sure, Mr. Holman.” Mr. Collen wiped his hands on the paper napkin and pressed his on his forehead before he said.

“The story is that, there was a teacher and a student. A person came and threatened a teacher to smear the name of a student. The teacher wasn’t sure how to do it. But soon he found an opportunity as a new teacher joined the school. He shifted his target a bit and he tried to kill two birds with a stone. The teacher was famous, and he didn’t want that teacher to gain so much attention. He was jealous of that teacher and he smeared their names together. Isn’t that an interesting story, Mr. Collen?”

“Ah! Mr. Holman, those are wrong accusations. You can’t accuse me like that.”

“Did I now, Mr. Collen? I was just telling my story about a teacher and a student. What made you think that it was about you? Now now, Mr. Collen, I think it’s the best time you can help me complete the other parts of the story I missed.” Brad said with a smirk plastered across his face.

“Mr. Holman, listen to me. I didn’t know what to do. I was forced.” The Dean tried to explain himself. He gave Lisa a pleading stare. Lisa smiled. Her son wanted to deal with this on his own, so she would let him do that. But that doesn’t mean she would let him fight alone. She was Lisa Hudon. She had enough connections to make people afraid.

She picked up her cell and said, “Send two. No, two is enough. Yeah, sure. Ha ha. I’ll see you soon. Yeah, please make it fast. Oh, okay. I’ll send you the location.” Amelia placed her phone down after typing something on it. And then.
