Screams of terror shot throughout the school while Haru laughed like a madman from within the Principal's office. The sounds had gained an audience at the receptionist's office, and they looked on with terror, imagining what kinds of atrocities were going on behind the closed door.
The receptionist had already called the police and was filling them in on a description of Haru while waiting for them to arrive. If he were strong enough to defeat the Principal in one move, they would have to send the elite magic task force to deal with the situation.
Many of the students pulled out their phones and recorded the door to hear the cries of pain, but not a single one of them dared to get close when suddenly the sounds were overlapped with blaring sirens outside the school.
The receptionist ran outside to meet them and showed them the way to the Principal's office before three men dressed in black tight-fitting uniforms with plates of armour lining them stopped at the door.
"Agh! Why are you doing this to me!?" The Principal cried out as the police officers pulled out a scanning device and held it up to the door.
The device showed both the principals and Haru's heat signature, but they couldn't quite make out what was happening since Haru was obstructing the line of sight with his back to them.
"It looks like he is torturing him. What do we do?" The officer holding the scanning device asked as he turned to see another officer with a green armband on his left arm.
"We have to breach immediately. We can't stand by and watch. But first, make sure the students are evacuated before we do anything else. We can't afford to have them caught up in this." The man with the green armband said while looking down at his wrist.
"Yes, sir." The third man said and then walked to the door where the students were standing and ushered them outside. He then called in back up and had police surround the building and take all of the students outside and away from any danger.
"Okay then, On three. We rush in and apprehend the suspect. Do whatever is necessary. I have lethal you two go less than lethal." The man with the green armband instructed them now that the students were out of harm's way and ordered the other officers to line up against the wall.

The officer counted down before blasting the door from its hinges using an explosive type of fire magic followed by all of them rushing into the room with their guns pointed toward where Haru was standing.
"Don't move! And let the hostage go!" One of the officers shouted upon seeing Haru standing with his back towards them.
"Aw, It looks like the fun is over. I was hoping to talk business with you. But I guess I will just leave that for the next time we meet." Haru sighed and then raised his hands above his head before turning and stepping to the side to reveal the Principal was tied to the chair with a long green vine.
His tongue was frozen solid and hanging out of his mouth, and his fingers were stuck inside his ears as his eyebrows were frosted with ice.
"Ugh, ugh!" The Principal screamed upon seeing the police officers aiming their guns on Haru, but there wasn't much he could say with his tongue frozen.
The police officers stood in the doorway in shock. They thought that something sinister was going on, but in reality, they didn't have a clue what had happened. They had gotten a report that a man had invaded the school and was holding the principal hostage.
While it was clear that Haru was holding the Principal against his will, it didn't seem like he meant to cause any harm given the fact that he hadn't injured him but instead decided to humiliate him.
"Well, it was nice meeting you, but. I really have to get back to work. So if you don't mind me." Haru began to walk back toward the door and approach the three police officers.
"Stay where you are! Don't move!" The officer with the green armband shouted with his gun raised as Haru approached them, but there was no sign of him stopping.
"I'm warning you I will shoot-" The officer yelled out again as Haru didn't abide by his demand and then suddenly vanished from their sight.
"What where did he go!? Did you guys see anything!?" The officer asked his two colleagues, but none of them had a clue.
"Ugh, Ugh!" The Principal yelled out, but his words fell upon death ears until a cold chill ran down the officer's spine as he felt a warm breath on the back of his neck. His hands began to shake as he tried his hardest to turn around and aim his gun again.
But the more he tried, the more it seemed like it was impossible for him to do so. It was like his body had shut down in reaction to the sudden feeling of fear that washed over him.
"Lighten up a little. There's no need to be so serious." Haru whispered before walking away. The other two officers turned to see Haru was now walking out of the room, but before they could say anything, their leader raised his hand up in the air.
"Don't. We are clearly not a match for whatever type of magic he just used. I didn't even sense a mana fluctuation." The group leader said with a frown as he realised that he was much weaker than the person he was sent to arrest.
"But sir, we can't just let him-" One of the other officers complained as Haru had already left the immediate area.
"Enough, We would only end up embarrassing ourselves if we tried to do anything to him. It's better that we just report that he fled using spatial magic." The man with the green armband said to keep his pride intact. He didn't want anyone else to find out that he let someone go out of fear.
'He vanished right before our eyes. How is anyone supposed to fight against someone who can casually vanish? Not to mention that feeling he gave me. It was as if every fibre of my body was telling me to run, but I couldn't move no matter what I tried. I can't let anyone else know about this. Not ever.' The officer thought as he imagined the type of punishment he would receive from his boss anyone found out.
"Okay, He escaped using spatial magic. I got it. But what do we do about him?" One of the men asked before pointing to the Principal, who was still tied to the chair.
"What about him? He's the Principal of a magic school, yet he couldn't defend himself against an unknown young man. If he tells anyone the truth, then a picture of him tied to a chair like this might accidentally leak to the public." The man with the green armband said and then held up his phone to the Principal as a flash shot out from the back of it.
"Just let him thaw out. I'm sure he can get himself out of the vines. I don't think our presence is required here anymore. Let's head back and get the report over with. I want to find out more about that man we encountered just now. TheThe way he moved was similar to that of an S rank mage.
There can't be too many people with that amount of strength currently in Tokyo after all." The man in the green armband said with a stutter as he wondered about Haru's identity.
"S rank!? Are you serious? I thought all the S rank mages are combat-ready right now just in case war breaks out. What would one be doing here?" One of the other men asked.
"I'm wondering the same thing. On second thought, let's take him with us. I bet he can tell us some useful information about what that man had come here for." The man in the green armband said and then ordered his men to take the Principal into custody.
As Haru got outside, he noticed that there were flashing lights reflecting off every surface in the visible area. Police cars were lining every entrance of the school, and there was no escape for him.
"I guess I should head back to the cafe now." Haru sighed before holding his hand out in front of him [Spatial Rift]. A purple vortex appeared In front of him.
"It's been a while since I used this one." He said with a smile before stepping into it and appearing back in the centre of the cafe.
"Dad, I'm back," Haru announced before taking a look around to see that his father was still talking with the two police officers at the entrance. What he thought had taken a few hours had, in fact, taking less than half an hour, and his appearance caused surprise as he openly used magic.
"Woah, Spatial rift? That's some high-level magic. If you don't want him to join the army, then why would you teach him something like that, eh?" Mills asked Luke with a smile as they had both now started to sweep the floor where the glass had shattered.
"I had no part of that. He quickly picked up magic when he was younger and then went to the Royal Institute of military arts. There's no doubt that he learnt a few tricks when going to the best magic school in the country." Luke bragged in front of Mills and then turned back to Haru.
"You can take your lunch break now. I doubt we will get many customers with all of the police surrounding us." Luke said with a smile as he instructed Haru to take a break.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
