As the group descended down the staircase they passed the many paintings hanging on the wall and reached the circular hall at the bottom of the staircase. There were 3 doors leading to different places.
"As you can see there are 3 sections in the ground level. The section is the comfort section where the staff have their breaks. Inside there is the kitchen and the lounge. Behind the second door, there are the ground floor offices.
Inside the offices are the Principle and another staff member and through the last door is the entrance. There is a reception with our building's secretary and the entrance to the building.
Now let me take you to the comfort section first, so please follow me." Malcolm finished his short introduction with a beckoning of his hand and turned around and walked to the first door.
After they entered through the door Kai saw a large luxurious living room. It had lots of comfortable couches, TVs and tables. He was surprised at the luxuriousness of the room's design but reminded himself that the room was for the upper management of the academy.
While he examined the room, a door on the opposite side of the entrance opened and two people walked through. A beautiful young woman and a handsome young man appeared in front of Kai.
The woman was Penelope and he guessed that the man was Sam, the love-stricken boy that followed Penelope everywhere. Malcolm saw them and said, "Ah, Penelope and Sam, this is our guest Mr Kai Natasa."
Sam was a tall young man with an arrogant aura that made him feel annoying, at least to Kai. He had brown eyes with dark green specks in them, wavy hair that reached his nape and a long fringe that allowed him to swing when he moved his head. Like those arrogant assholes in the movies.
He had a sharp jawline and a long nose. Thin lips that rivalled Snape's and a well-built body, however judging from his movements Kai could see that he didn't have any confidence even though he tried to seem like he did.
Penelope's expression briefly changed to a look of disgust and hatred before changing back to a friendly expression. Sam stared at Kai with unconcealed animosity and his eyes contained malice in them when he looked at Kai.
However, when the pair looked at the Director there was only respect shown in their eyes.
"Nice to meet you again Penelope," Kai said slightly with a smile. Before greeting Sam with a nod "Sam." Apart from these formal gestures, Kai made no other effort to communicate with them after so much unconcealed hatred concentrated on him.
Sam was filled with even more animosity after Kai's slight greeting to him. Completely forgetting that he was in the wrong. 'How dare a mere human act so high and mighty to a higher being like me' he thought.
Sam didn't attempt to return the greeting ignoring Kai altogether. 'Oh, what terrible manners these people have. What a bunch of arrogant beings.' Kai thought after getting a worse impression of the staff working in the building.
"Mr Natasa" Penelope greeted with a smile, before dragging Sam out of the room.
"Well that was very impolite," Kai said out loud. "Did his parents not teach him manners?" He said rhetorically. "Malcolm answered Kai's question "No he didn't, his parents died when he was still an infant. In fact, most of our staff are orphans that the previous director found and adopted. So please ignore his rude mannerisms."
Kai was silent, and he could feel the Director's gaze become less friendly. He looked back at the director and said "Although he may have had a tragic childhood that doesn't excuse the fact that he is unpleasant and extremely rude. If he was adopted as a child then the previous Director that raised him should have taught him manners.
This is one of the most prestigious schools in the world and this is one of the main reasons that I am investing in it. If you think that it is okay for staff to be rude and offensive then I should just leave and invest my money somewhere else. There are plenty of other schools that would love to have this opportunity.
I have been treated terribly in this academy since I have gotten here, from the long wait at the gate even though there were cameras at the gates, to the cold reception I got from Penelope as well as the offensive behaviour your staff member has given me even though I want to help the school and its students. Don't think that because I was polite I am a pushover."
Kai said coldly, but Malcolm could feel that Kai was truly angry. "And while Sam may have had a troublesome childhood that doesn't mean he can project his troubled emotions onto others. He isn't the only one who has had a troublesome life. If he really wants to project his emotions send him to a therapist."
The Director was surprised at Kai's outburst and was silent as he thought of the previous occurrences and the unsuitable behaviour his staff had shown Kai. In the end, he apologised in a sincere tone. "I'm sorry Mr Natasa, you are right. I should be stricter on him. Please accept my apology." He then slightly bowed his head. "Thank you, Director I appreciate and accept your apology," Kai said looking more appeased.
"Anyway, I don't think that I should continue with the tour today. After that outburst, I just want to rest."
..........
Outside Penelope and Sam were plating Kai's car with a thin silver casing over the handles. Penelope looked at Sam and told him "They're returning quickly finish and let's go." Once Sam finished his plating, he attached and connected a small powerful unprotected battery with 100 volts inside it to the silver plating.
Her plan was quite simple, Kai would touch the handles when he wanted to open the door and would get shocked and get some serious burns and wouldn't want to return to the academy. The handles would be covered in an extremely thin layer of silver and then would be connected to a powerful battery that would shock Kai.
(In case you don't know 100 volts can cause extreme burns at the minimum and at can even Kill a normal person. The power comes from the current and because of that, it can kill you. For more information check it out here- https://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~p616/safety/fatal_current.html)
Sam and Penelope disappeared from the spot and reappeared in Penelope's office and looked through the window. They were ready to watch the show as Sam took out a bag of pre-made popcorn and got ready for the show.
Penelope walked over to the window and opened it, ready to hear Kai's screams. Just as she finished opening the window Kai and the Director walked out of the door. Kai walked over to the car and easily saw through the hidden silver plating. He considered what to do as he stood there without moving, giving Penelope and Sam a fright as they thought that he had discovered that he had realised what they had done.
In the end, he decided to play along and slowly grasped his silver-plated electricity- charged handle. As soon as he grasped the handle he amplified the current by a 1000 and cast an illusion spell. Naturally, the shock didn't hurt him, even if the electricity was one hundred million times more powerful it wouldn't hurt him and since the electricity didn't hurt him he had to cast an illusion that made it seem that he was dead.
After all, he couldn't have them suspect him, who would believe he was shocked to death without seeing the giant burns. He made the illusion have the most burns in his hands and moved up to the rest of his body to the point that it was hard to see his hand's shape. The further away the body part was from the hand he made it so that the body would seem in better shape(I.E not as burned).
When he was thinking about whether to play along or not, he also spoke to Bob and asked his opinion. Bob who hadn't had any amusement in years decided to play along and happily told Kai to go for it.
When Kai had grasped the door, he made it seem that he was collapsing and let himself fall to the ground. He halted the blood strand acting as his bloodstream and made himself like a corpse while still allowing his body to be warm.
The Director looked at Kai in surprise and disappointment, before hearing Bob's yowl that quickly turned into a roar and his face turned incredibly serious. At the same time, Annabelle muttered a spell and a powerful protective barrier appeared. It had two functions, the first was to protect and the second was to hide what was going on inside the barrier.
Penelope and Sam looked at each other with horror after hearing Bob's roar and looked back at Bob who had started transforming back into his normal size. Kai who had sensed everything was lying down on the ground while boosting Bob's strength silently. Bob looked at the two watching from Penelope's office with anger and rage radiating from him.
