Ero Meter - Chapter 193: Spell
“What do you mean he has ventured out alone?! Are you guys fucking stupid, I told you to take care of him!” Elma said over the phone.
She was sitting at the desk of her office and there was an angry expression on her face.
Her fist was clenched and she was gritting her teeth.
“Madam, but he said that he wanted to go alone.” Faneel’s voice came from the other side of the call.
“Shut up! I didn’t pay you for making excuses. Go and search for him right now! If anything happens to him then you two will be on the top of the hit list of your organization.” Elma said in an angered voice as she banged on the table.
“Ok, madam…” Faneel gulped his saliva.
“Fuck off, apologise to me when you find him!” Elma hung up the call and threw the phone on her table.
“These guys! Can’t even do their job properly!” She yelled and grabbed her head with both of her hands.
*knock* *knock*
As she was seething in anger she suddenly heard some knocks on her office door.
She looked above and her gaze landed on the door. “Who is it!!” She yelled, she was already distressed by Jack’s matter and didn’t wanna talk to anyone else right now.
“It’s me, Cassie, Professor if you don’t wanna talk then I can come later…” Cassie’s voice came from the other side of the door.
“Cassie?” A frown appeared on Elma’s face when she heard her voice. ‘What is she doing here, it’s college holidays right now?’ Elma thought and calmed herself down.
If it was anyone else then she would have sent them away even if it was the director of the college.
However, she knew that Cassie was one of Jack’s girlfriends and Elma didn’t wanna anger her as it could also anger Jack.
She stood up from her seat and took in another deep breath. “I am coming.” She said and quickly moved towards the wooden door.
And soon enough the office door opened and Cassie was standing in front of her.
“Hello, Cassie,” Elma said with a small smile on her face.
Cassie nodded at her greeting. “I am sorry if I am disturbing you, we can talk sometime later if you want,” Cassie said as a guilty expression appeared on her face.
Just now by the tone of her voice, Cassie figured out that Elma was not in a good mood.
“No, you are not disturbing me, come inside.” Elma held her hand and pulled her inside the office with a smile on her face.
“Thanks,” Cassie murmured and moved inside.
‘She has become so gentle with me, it’s all because of Jack.’ Cassie thought and sighed.
She remembered how Elma used to be the strictest teacher in the college and she berated everyone, even the higher-ups were scared of her.
However now she was acting all happy and affectionate towards her, as if she was her friend and not her professor.
“Come sit here.” Elma made Cassie sit on the chair in front of her and sat down herself.
“So how can I help you?” Elma said while leaning forward a bit, her smile was still on her face.
“Uh, I was here just for the extra classes. I was wondering if I can continue coming to the library?” Cassie said with an awkward smile on her face.
She was not used to Elma treating her like this.
“Extra Classes?” Elma raised her brows in confusion. “Why? You are already in the top five of your batch. This is the perfect time for you to relax a bit.” Elma raised her borws with a frown on her face.
Cassie listened to her words and bit her lip. “It’s just that I don’t want to relax, I can do with getting permission for the college library,” Cassie said.
Although she planned to relax, however after Jack was gone, she couldn’t get peace no matter what she did.
So she decided that it would be better for her to join the library again to study for her next term in advance.
“Why?” Elma asked while adjusting her glasses and a worried expression appeared on her face.
Cassie listened to her and took in a deep breath and then she leaned back on her chair.

“I think you know the reason professor,” Cassie said and looked at Elma in the eyes.
Elma listened to her words and turned silent for a bit. ‘Is it because Jack has gone? Even I feel uneasy and the only thing I can do peacefully is work.’ Elma sighed and looked at Cassie with pity.
‘He has such a charm to him, we can’t even relax properly without him.’
Elma stayed silent for a minute and then looked at Cassie again. “How about we go on a trip, just so we don’t feel sad.” She decided to open up in front of Cassie.
It was no secret that both of them loved Jack and now they are like sisters.
“Trip?” Cassie raised her brows.
“Yes, it could be a good opportunity to know each other. I think all of us should go on a trip together. I will arrange everything.” Elma said again.
As Jack was gone she felt that it was her responsibility to take care of his girls behind his back, that’s how much she loved him.
She knew that if his girls were sad he would also be sad and Elma couldn’t see Jack sad.
Cassie when heard her offer turned silent for few a seconds and a few thoughts moved through her brain.
“I don’t know if others would be ready to come and I don’t think I can invite some of his girls,” Cassie murmured as she thought about Sophie and Meadow.
She knew that Jack was sleeping with both of them and it would be hard for her to call them.
Cassie can only call one of them.
“Just think about my offer after you go home. And yes you can use the library if you don’t want the trip.” Elma said with a smile and nodded.
Cassie listened to her and nodded. “Thanks, Professor.” She said and stood up.
Elma also stood up looking at her. “Just call me Elma.” She said and moved towards Cassie and then hugged her.
“And no need to worry, he will be back soon,” Elma said while patting her back a little.
Cassie felt her hug and relaxed a bit, she then moved away and looked her in the eyes again.
“Thanks, Elma…” She murmured.
“That’s more like it, I am like your sister now.” Elma placed a hand on her shoulder.
….
Jack was sitting on the ground with his notebook in his lap, there were many questions written in the book.
And he has come to some findings.
First, he found out that the entrance to the rock could be opened by a spell.
And he has even asked for the total number of words in the Spell.
And there were Six.
He then asked for the number of letters in each word and also got the answer.
“The first word of the spell contains four letters,” Jack said and started asking for each letter of the spell.
After about half an hour Jack looked at his notebook and sighed in relief.
“Finally I have completed the spell.” He stood up and placed the pen in his bag again.
He then looked at the notebook and then at the stone in front of him.
“If this didn’t work then I don’t know what will.” He sighed and looked at the spell again.
After that, he placed the notebook in his bag again.
He has already remembered the spell.
His eyes landed on the big Rock and he placed his palm on it.
…..
Nicole sat in a restaurant with a hat over her head and she was wearing a black shirt and back pants.
She sipped on some coffee as she looked in front of her.
Ther, in the corner of the restaurant sat a handsome man who was talking to a young girl.
“He is definitely a murderer.” She murmured under her breath and her heart started beating at a rapid pace.
‘That day, I saw the paper that the evil bitch gave Jack, I even heard her words, she wanted Jack to kill such a dangerous guy. I have to deal with him.’ Nicole thought and sighed.
After some time she stopped focusing on Rick and started sipping her coffee while looking at her phone.
And after five minutes when he looked above again, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
In front of her stood Rick with a smile on his face. “Hello, beautiful lady.” He chucked and looked at the chair in front of her. “Can I sit here?” He asked.
However, he sat on the chair without waiting for her response.
“Hello,” Nicole said as a nervous smile appeared on her face. She knew that Rick was a dangerous man and that facing him without a plan would be akin to suicide.
“I noticed you from across the restaurant and thought that you looked pretty and came to say hello,” Rick said and leaned back on his chair.
“Ah… Actually, I am already married but thanks.” Nicole said with an awkward but polite smile.
Rick listened to her and turned silent for a bit and after that, his smile came again.
“Oh, sorry then, just take it as a compliment. I will excuse myself now.” He said and stood up.
And soon enough he was gone from her sight.
