My Triling System

Chapter 167: Apology

"Noise?" Kevin inquired.

"Yes, if we are able to create some kind of noise, devilclaw will be chased out of Graham's body."

"I don't have a loud voice. How do we chase him out of the body?" Kevin asked impatiently.

"Look beside you. Sophia is holding a staff of some sort. The Staff's Power is able to create a loud noise if stomped on the ground and applied with an adequate amount of Mana." The system explained.

"So what do you suggest?" He asked again.

"I suggest you grab the staff as fast as possible before Graham uses his telekinesis magic to take it away from you. If he spots you trying to chase him away, he might do the unknown to you."

"Okay. If that's the only way to stop all this madness, I'll do as you suggested." Before Kevin could finish his speech, he had grab hold of the staff.

< 20 points of Mana to activate the power of the staff >

< Proceed > < Reject >

Without wasting any time reading the options, Kevin chose the Yes option.

< Choose the following skills you wish to use; >

< Noise maker >

< Barrier formation >

< Laser shoot >

Clicking on the Noise maker option because that was what he really needed at the moment, he was given a description of how it could be used. In the description that was shown to Kevin, he saw that the staff must be stomped on the ground just like the system had previously said.

He stomped the rod staff on the ground once and suddenly a high pitched noise surged out of nowhere. Everyone panicked as they saw this, but they fell at ease when they saw Pretta do the same thing.

She stomped her own rod on the ground and the noise increased more than before. Graham tried to cover his ears but the noise was too much for him to bear. It was too much for even sunny and the others why won't it affect the one who sees it as a weakness.

"Give up Devilclaw, you cannot defeat the Triling this time around. All fairies would be joining hands to support him this time. None of those who are greedy for the Triling's power are alive. You must have killed them to achieve your own goal but we are not greedy or power hungry like them. We will stand and defend the Triling and everyone against you."

"Do you think you can defeat me? I'll kill you all once I'm back in full piece. And did you just said give up? Give up my foot, I'll kill every last one of you!!" The spirit inside Graham's body slowly left his body thanks to the noise. Then after a while, it eventually disappeared.

Graham's body fell on the ground as soon as the spirit left his body.

Both Kevin and Pretta stopped as soon as Devilclaw was chased away.

They pant heavily as they watch the unconscious body of Graham in the floor. Everyone had their eyes fixed on Graham's body. They felt like the body could become conscious again at any time and start attacking them. So they didn't for a minute take their eyes away from the body till Graham has been taken care of.

Max has been rescued by the shadow fairies that Kevin created. He was made to land safely on the ground in front of Sophia and after he was rescued, the shadows disappeared. They already completed the task that needs to be done.

While everyone sat on the ground having a moment of rest, Sophia sobbed silently to herself.

"I'm so sorry I couldn't save your father, Max." Sophia said as she put Max's hands in hers.

Everyone felt pity for her as they saw how broken and teary she was. They could feel the pain of losing someone she love.

"It's okay Mum. I have you. As long as you're here, I don't want anything else."

Sophia turned to look at Pretta. "I'm sorry for ruining the plan Pretta. I just couldn't hold back the tears. I- I..."

"I understand you Lexa, we're lucky the Triling help us chase him. Go and rest a little bit, I'm sure the Triling here would love to have a discussion with us." Pretta replied.

Kevin realized that everyone is starting to know who he was and that also means they might know who the past Triling is. But who is this Devilclaw guy. How did he know such much about him and everyone here. What is his relationship with the last Triling. Are they friends? Or enemies? All this questions flooded Kevin's mind and can't wait to get answers to them.

"Thanks Dean Pretta, I would love it if you could answer my questions. See, the Devilclaw guy told me a lot of things but I didn't seem to understand them. Perhaps you could explain them to me?"

"Mr Kevin, I know you have a lot questions to ask us, but not right now. I need to see how Jeri is doing and Dean Sophia too will be visiting before going to her office."

"I'm visiting too, we can talk along the way." Kevin said, trying to convince Pretta.

"No, Mr Kevin. You have a class soon. You should have been there by now. We'll talk once your class ends, so have a lovely time in class." Pretta said but then she saw Sophia approach Kevin.

"You must be the husband of my daughter. Too surprising to see that you're a Triling. I guess that's why you were able to break her curse. I don't know what will happen to her now that the curse has been broken but I'm to be blamed for bringing that upon her. I hope she wakes up and doesn't resent me for what I did." Sophia said tearfully.

It's a surprise to see the teacher who acted all tough in the public become a crybaby all of a sudden.

"Kevin, I also owe you an apology. Not just one, but lots of apologies. So I'm fulfilling my promise to you. Let's meet in my office after today's class ends."
