Secret Society: Raising Calamity Class Disciples
Chapter 71 Well… He Is A Good Comrade

Joseph had stopped trying to save himself from the clutches of the leather straps. All hope was lost. He had a first hand experience of how terrifying those two monsters were. He lay there—silent—awaiting his fate.

Xavier ignored the still psychiatrist on the bed and turned to Eulene. She had her eyes fixed on the 'empty' vase, pondering something.

Xavier walked to her. "What are you looking at?" He peered into the vase that looked empty and tried to sense anything that she might be discerning.

"I am getting a strange sense from this object," Eulene replied, her black eyes still glued to the artefact. "It feels…familiar."

Xavier's mask displayed a question as he peered deeper into the void like opening of the vase. She was right. There was indeed a familiar vibe. It even reminded him of something.

"Your third eye," Xavier answered.

"I know, right?" Eulene said. "I was thinking the same."

Xavier turned back to the cuffed psychiatrist, who was looking at the duo with his hazel blank eyes. Along with Joseph's gaze, there were a few more watchful eyes looking at them from the same direction.

Xavier snapped his fingers. The cave rumbled as earth bulged up from the ground and created a solid wall that divided the two parties.

He turned back to Eulene. "What are you planning?" He looked down into the vase. "It would be a waste to just let it be."

"Mmhm… I am thinking of something." Eulene gave the new-formed wall a look. After confirming that nobody was peering at them, she took off her mask.

Even after battling and toiling for hours, not a speck of dust or swear tainted her beauty. She took in a deep breath and closed her eyes, joining her palms together.

Her lips started to move as she silently chanted something. Once again, Xavier followed.

Sure enough, the surge of unknown power was the most what he could feel. After an attempt, he gave up.

A vertical slit appeared on Eulene's forehead before it opened. The blue sky was visible behind those vertical eyelids.

Eulene then opened her two principal eyes before looking down the vase. In the endless darkness inside the artefact, Eulene spotted something. There was a purple orb.

The more she focused her celestial vision on the orb, the more apparent it seemed to get and the closer it appeared.

In a few moments, Eulene realised that it was not that the orb became more visible, but it was moving at her.

Before she knew what to do, the orb closed in and jumped into her celestial eye.

"Aah!" She let out a surprised scream. She subconsciously closed all three of her eyes and moved a few steps back.

The red smile on Xavier's mask disappeared as he rushed to Eulene. He grabbed her by her shoulder and waist—stabilising her. Eulene grabbed his shoulder and arm in return.

"What happened?" Xavier asked, his mask still blank. His senses scanned Eulene's vitals. She seemed fine, but that didn't decrease his worry by any means.

Something clearly happened. And that event not affecting her body could mean something worse—like affecting the formless parts of her being: her psyche, soul, spirit, will or something else.

Eulene finally opened her eyes. Her celestial eye had disappeared.

"Are you okay?" Xavier asked.

Eulene did not respond and closed her eyes. She used her spiritual sense to check everything inside her.

She opened her eyes and nodded. "Everything's fine. But my third eye seemed to have faced a change. I will check."

"Go on," Xavier said.

"Ummm… you can let go of me now." Eulene moved her gaze from him. Xavier was still holding onto her shoulder and waist.

"Let go of me first," Xavier coldly replied.

Eulene coughed, realising her mistake. She was also holding onto Xavier's solid arms. She instantly moved her hands away.

Xavier, after another scan of her vitals, released her.

After a few moments of awkward silence, Eulene joined her palms and closed her eyes again, calling forth the celestial eye.

The dark cavern appeared as bright as day. Xavier was standing before her, emanating a yellowish aura.

Yellow? She thought. Was the bastard worried?

A surge of warmth struck her heart. Her mood had not been its best state since the separation with Aunt Maisel. Only the battle and the memorising competition she had with Xavier made her forget about it.

Now, Xavier's show of care meant a lot to her. Her focus subconsciously went to the white karmic link that connected them.

What?! She yelled in her mind. It has not even been a whole day since she checked the link back at Trisha's place. But it has already thickened by a few millimetres? Wasn't it too fast?

She then remembered how they went past tonight's trials together. Well… he was not a bad comrade.

She used her Qi to restrain the blush.

Xavier, who started to feel chills from Eulene's piercing stare, took a step forward to check.

Eulene, noticing Xavier closing in, screamed in her mind and blinked her third eye.

And with the blink, the whole scenery changed. A hill appeared, on top of which was a large building. To one side of the hill were fields and forests and to the other side were city buildings.

It was the bird's eye view of the Gallery. And from the hill, several white lines trailed out. A few went and stopped at the town, while the rest went North.

Eulene was surprised—pleasantly so. Now, not only could she discern the direction where the Karmic links went, she could also pinpoint the exact location of the other end of the link.

She had blinked with her celestial eye before, but this never happened. Was it because of the purple orb it just absorbed? Most probably.

Whatever the case, her Celestial eye had upgrade!

She blinked again. And sure enough, it returned to the previous scene.

Xavier was still looking at her, his yellow aura being more apparent. Eulene called off the celestial eye and opened her regular eyes.

"Everything's fine. Thank you." Eulene coughed.

"Let's go on to business." Xavier snapped his fingers. The wall began to drown down.

Eulene brought out her silver mask from the ring and donned it back on.

The red smile resurface on Xavier's mask.

"How proficient are you at using a saw?"
