Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280 Chapter 66.1 - Grave

"Haaaaah...Haaaaah….."

As I continued to release heavy breaths as if I was just about to drown underwater, I looked around.

"Astron!"

As the familiar voice of the certain girl echoed in my head, I turned to face her.

"Are you okay? Here, drink this."

For some reason, I wasn't able to remember anything. As if I had awakened from a dream, every memory of mine was blurry, it felt like.

'What was I doing?'

I knew inwardly that something inside me had changed. Something that was missing. Slightly narrowing my eyes, I resisted the pain that tried to overlap my head and took the water Sylvie gave me.

"Thanks," I mumbled as my brain started recalling the information of what I could remember to last.

'I was looking for some observations and then…..'

Then, everything suddenly became dark. After that, I don't remember much aside from some blurry moments.

"You won't ever leave me, right?"

Once again, a voice echoed in my head as I recalled one of the blurry moments. The voice that is familiar.

'It is her voice, isn't it?'

Most likely, I had awoken from a dream. If it was that, everything seemed to make sense. However, there were many other things in the environment that I couldn't quite put my feelings on.

'The atmosphere….'

–THUMP!

Just as I thought about it, suddenly, I felt a sensation in my chest. The same sensation I got countless different times.

'A demon…'

But this time, it was different. Much more different.

This sense of dread was so much that I was even about to have a hard time breathing. My heart started beating incredibly fast, as if I was running for a long amount of time.

'Everywhere around is filled with demonic energy.'

Whether it was because the demonic energy was incredibly potent or, for some reason, I could see everything better; I was able to notice the energy surrounding us. The dark energy was covering almost every other location around and those dark threads connecting in the air.

It was disgusting, as if something was feeding from it.

"ASTRON!"

Sylvie's urgent voice brought me back to the present. She asked if I was okay, and I nodded, reassuring her that I was fine.

"What happened?" I asked. I had an idea in my head, but right now, I needed to understand the situation first.

"Sigh…." Hearing this, Sylvie released a long sigh as she looked at my right side with a face filled with unease. "I want to explain everything to you, but we need to wake Irina up first."

Before Sylvie could answer, she suggested waking up Irina first. I turned my attention to the side, realizing for the first time that Irina was lying on the ground, unconscious.

'Irina is unconscious as well?'

But something seemed different about her, as her body was slightly convulsing.

'She is about to wake up.'

Realizing that it was the symptoms of waking up, I waited.

–PAH!

"Haaaaah..."

Irina's eyes snapped open as she jolted forward, her sudden awakening accompanied by a sharp intake of breath. The surroundings seemed to take a moment to register for her as she glanced around, confusion evident in her amber eyes.

"Irina, are you alright?" Sylvie asked, her concern palpable. I moved closer, offering a hand to help Irina, and she accepted it, using the support to steady herself.

Her initial disorientation faded, and she nodded in response to Sylvie's question, reassuring us, "I'm fine, just a bit disoriented."

'Everything seems too weird.'

My memories were blurry, and from the looks of it, Irina was in the same condition; she looked blankly around.

But at that moment, suddenly, she bolted from her place.

"We don't have much time!"

And she shouted. Her complexion turned paler as well, and her blood circulation sped up. It was evident that she was now in a state of excitement, but that wasn't what I needed right now.

"What do you mean? Elaborate."

I answered. 'We don't have much time, what does it mean?' While asking this question to myself.

"That…..I don't know."

However, the reply she gave me made everything weirder.

"You don't know?"

"I mean…..I know something is going wrong, but I can't quite put up what it is." She replied, trying to understand what she meant as well.
