Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

[OP: ]

The outside station of the great academy where the airships were docked.

Students, the ones who had passed and the ones who didn't get the passing grades this time but still were here for some reason, were all walking down the giant airships.

There was a cheerful atmosphere all around and there was also gloom in the air as they stood there, gathered, made groups, and looked around to find the people they might have met on the illusion island and might have got close to.

There were many things happening right now on this platform and Rein and Eon were looking around the place, looking at the young children, their joyous expressions, looking at their brother and sisters at a distance surrounded by many people who wanted to talk to them.

They were fine and the two of them didn't have to worry about any of them from now on.

They were here as someone else so until they got acquainted here, they didn't know the two of them.

So… the two just followed the instructions of the people of the academy and the vice headmaster and stood there listening to the things they were saying.

Most of it was gibberish so they had no interest in it but there sure were many things that were important like the general schedule so they were paying attention.

The things here were fine, the atmosphere was calm, a serene wind was blowing all around them, the Mana in the atmosphere was also strangely calm and fresh, a bit different from one in the air or the one they might be familiar with.

At a distance away from them, there was a golden wall that led to the very outer part of the academy and it was a garden from what they had seen before landing on the ground.

There were trees and also a grand tree that they would visit after this small lecture from the vice headmaster was finished.

Sooo… things were fine around here, Rein was looking around, bored and waiting for when they would be freed and she would be able to visit the dorm that 'only' two of them would stay in.

Eon was enjoying everything as Celes's clones were looking around the place, enjoying things on their own or just roaming around, searching for colorful lights that Celes might later go and taste.

The little butterfly was really excited to see all the things around them and Eon was happy to hear the cheerful voice of his dear partner.

He was having fun, smiling and listening to things, watching the area with his third eye, and taking in everything around him.

The winds were calm, the atmosphere was cheerful for most of the parts, there was a scent of youth in the air around them and the bored expression of his fiancée was quite enjoyable for him.

But then, suddenly, that smile on his face vanished as the purple ring around his finger gleamed lightly, sending a small electric current that shook his entire mind and soul…

His eyes widened, his heart ran wild, cold sweat slid down his back, and his throat went dry.

He looked beside him, at his gorgeous fiancée that still maintained her bored expression, and then his pupils became wider, as a sudden thought crossed his mind.

She didn't know something was happening but he knew, he was just informed by their 'bond' of the ineffable transgression that some wretched being had dared to perform.

The blood in his body ran hot, his eyes went back to normal, the energies inside his body aligned, and… his soul left his body.

It wasn't new to him to separate his soul from his body anymore but he knew, he believed that in this academy at the very least, someone shouldn't do something like that in this normal environment and come to the two of them, the two who were perfectly disguised and had no relation to any of them, with not a good or neutral but some other intention on their minds.

So, he separated his soul from his body, entered the astral realm, and the first thing that he looked for, was naturally his clueless fiancée beside him.

She didn't know it but there was someone touching her. Touching her in their soul form from what he concluded in that small moment when he found nothing and no one around her in the physical world.

But there was a perpetrator, a criminal who knowingly or unknowingly tried something so funny that they would think back to this moment throughout their lives and think how they shouldn't have done it or even thought about it…

So, in the astral world where souls and spirits, astral and spiritual beings, monsters of darkness and creatures of nowhere reside, inside the great academy of hope, on the sky island that looked no less gorgeous than the top of this academy that was home to some of the most unique features of this arc, in a place full of many young souls who had faith and great goals, some darkness and a deep light in their core, besides the most fascinating individual present, an ember green female soul, a young lady who looked no older than in her pre-twenties, was hovering before his fiancée, looking at her with the eyes that had the same color as her entire soul.

Her eyes were filled with greed and excitement, question and sorrow, fascination and questions, and her hand was caressing the cheeks of the girl beside him, genially touching what wasn't hers.

She wanted this unique person, but she belonged to someone else and there was no helping that fact so she could only look, touch without anyone noticing, and admire it from where anyone wasn't looking.

She thought it would be fine in this place, in this ethereal world where only those like her, or only those who were qualified, held great strength, or those who were special could enter.

There shouldn't be anyone like that here, there shouldn't be anyone who could separate their souls and enter the astral realm at their will here like her aside from the vice headmaster who was busy giving the instructions and her small speech.

It was a safe place where she could take a closer look at the one who intrigued her unlike anyone was able to do in her life.

This was a proper place… or what she had thought when she leaned her head towards the lips of the girl who had a smile that had enchanted her from the moment she laid her eyes on her reflection on that screen in that dark room.

The open area they stood in was wide, there was enough place for thousands of people to stand at once, they were quite a distance away from the platform from where the vice headmaster was telling the things, and the area was covered by the gorgeous lights from the young, small spiritual creatures, but different from a moment ago, there was someone aside from her, looking at the same things that were available to only a few in the world.

Time flowed differently in the other realms, and it should have been the same in this one too.

But, as the jade-green soul of the girl watched, a teardrop slid down from the eyes of the boy beside her.

The eyes that the tear came out of glowed in ruby red, filled with anger and resentment towards someone who touched something very precious to him.

She watched the tear flow down those cheeks at a normal speed which shouldn't be possible right now, and before she could think more than that, the eyes that had suddenly transitioned from blue to red… were looking at her, glaring at her very soul.

It was strange and she had never felt something unfamiliar like this but right now, she could feel her entire soul-body shake as if in fear from the eyes looking at her.

She felt weird all of a sudden and as she looked, the red eyes came out of that physical body, and took the form of an astral body, form of a soul so more detailed than hers, and with eyes so unique from what she could ever fathom, he looked at her with eyes full of anger that screamed that she had done something very wrong.

He was angry, and the anger grew deeper when his eyes met hers, and saw how her lips were just a moment away from his fiancée's.

He was enraged, and that anger materialized in the form of a white magic circle that appeared just before Rein's head.

It was the same circle that bound the two of their rings together, and as the circle had materialized, the two rings on their physical bodies were growing as the gems on them blinked brightly for a moment.

She was surprised by the sudden appearance of the magic circle so she hurriedly turned her head but as soon as she did that, her eyes which were still interlocked with the ruby red eyes of the boy, took in the image of him shaking his head in denial, telling her to never even think of something like that again.

It was strange and she didn't understand why he would be angry at such a trivial thing that didn't even happen in the physical world but even before this thought could cross her soul…

-Ooooooooooooz. Pew!

A white beam of light was shot from the small white circle which pierced straight through her head and blasted away a major part of her soul's head!

It was an attack, she was attacked in the astral realm when she was in her soul form, the last thing she would have expected. And as soon as that happened, her soul body vanished and returned back to the physical body that would share the pain of her damaged soul.

It was damage to the very soul and it would weaken her physically and spiritually for a long time. But that was her punishment and she will have to live with this experience for the rest of her life.

He would have to live with it too and he knew it will be difficult for him to explain what had just happened when he goes back to her.

It will be difficult, but he was able to send away the criminal guilty of a grave crime.

The criminal had received her punishment and Eon knew, he knew very well that the punishment was neither small nor painless.

If anything, that person, their very own student council vice president, had just experienced the worst pain of her life, and wherever she was right now, as her soul body returned to her and the mental pain of her head being blown away is shared with her mind, she would scream so loud that even the people around her would get scared. If there were any people around her that is.

But that wasn't important.

She was punished for a crime that was a crime probably only his book, and he had sent away the criminal with the third-best gift he could right now.

The punishment was painful but she would live through it.

The resulting weakness would be temporary but she will experience hellish things for a few days if she doesn't receive proper medication.

It will be difficult for her, probably, but Rein was safe now, so Eon sighed in relief in his soul form, kissed his partner's general lips that were curved downwards, and returned to his body, and her.

It was an unpleasant experience but it had possessed now. So… he could thankfullygo back to the moment that they all were in right now.
