《Honest Way of Living》You look younger!

Suddenly, the earliest remains left exploded. Asfa saw the process of the explosion since he was observing how strong the impact of the explosion would be.
Luckily the first explosion only destroyed two empty rooms nearby the source. But now, the other customers started to notice that things are not going smoothly for them. The customers from the nearby floors start panicking. They were screaming and hitting their room's door with everything they got, but it won't break.
"Urgh, I need to do something. The second explosion will happen in 30 seconds, and they are people inside their room."
Asfa uses his ability to move the next corpse that is going to explode further away from the occupied room. He couldn't toss the remains outside the building since the drones were watching, and the remains might also stuck on someone elses balcony.
When the second explosion happens, people inside the building realise that they need leave the building. Some of them were screaming for help calling from the people outside the building.
The second explosion destroyed the lift lobby areas, and Asfa could feel the tremors caused by it.
Asfa realised that moving the remains won't solve the problem since there were more going to explode soon, and the explosion gradually improved.
He then sat down on the floor and started meditating.
"Screw this sh*t. If I could absorb the white mana ball, I should be able to absorb these dark green mana!"
He then sat down on the floor and started meditating. Since he knew the locations of the remains, he drew the dark green mana from the nearest one from his spot.
At first, he found it quite troublesome to remove the mana from the first corpse but eventually, he got used to it. HHe gathered every dark green mana he could locate into a single spot.

After a minute, the mana he gathered turned into a dark green ball that has the size of a coconut. He carefully brought the condensed into his room without alerting someone else.
Asfa looked at the condensed mana in front of him. There was a sinister feeling just by being near it, and he hesitated for a while to touch it. He poked it with his finger to see if he could actually absorb it or not.
Thankfully, absorbing it was not a problem, but it was painful to him. It was like being poked by a hundred needles. He wanted to give up, but he couldn't.
"What if this condensed mana exploded? It would kill everyone inside this building!"
Asfa then puts his handkerchiefs into his mouth and presses the condensed mana with his hands. He was shaking furiously, and a pool of sweat was made on the floor. After a few minutes, he absorbed everything and collapsed.
Brian is looking at the hotel with the Legion from far.
"Strange, it has been half an hour since the last explosion. Are you guys sure that he completed the spell?"
Shield then replies, "Yes, we are so sure that he completed the spell since all of the remains on that floor started to react after he finished chanting. In fact, the first explosion starts from the earliest fallen terrorists."
"Well, at least there is no casualty. You guys can go back now. I will go there first to see if it is safe enough for the cleaning team to start doing their job."
A few hours passed.
"Beep beep beep beep beep..."
Asfa turns off the alarm on his phone and stands up. He lost his consciousness the moment he was done absorbing the condensed mana. There were traces of sweat on where Asfa felt, and his shirt was still wet and smelled awful.

"Urgh, I must have fallen because of the burning sensation. I should be going now else I would miss the running test!"
As Asfa entered the bathroom, he was stupified by the image reflected in the mirror there. As a fitness enthusiast, changes in his physical appearance are easily noticeable to him. He was 178 cm previously, but now he grew 5 cm taller after absorbing the mana.
Meanwhile, in the Royal Castle dining hall, King Aldrich was just done reading the report he got from the Legion about the hotel bombing accident. Olivia then enters the dining hall and greets him.
"Good morning, dad! What's up with the long-faced?"
Aldrich then calls the butler to take the report away.
Aldrich then calls the butler to take the report away. "My princess, nothing important. By the way, we are going to the college together since I have a meeting there."
"But dad, won't we be exposed if we go to school together?"
Aldrich then explained to Olivia that the meeting would be off the record, and only a few people knew about it. There will be fewer people to protect him, but the one who is going to protect him will be the Legion. He will be going there in Olivia's driver's limousine to avoid being caught by someone with bad intentions.
Half an hour later, both of them arrived at the college's main entrance where also where the students were dropped off by their drivers. While waiting for their turn to drop off her, Olivia suddenly sees Asfa running into the building.
She then mumbles something in a low voice," Wow, Mr Hunt looks so good with a suit. He must have bought it yesterday while visiting the Blue Diamond Mall."
Though she mumbled it quietly, everyone inside the car could hear her and saw her giggling. Aldrich frowned when he saw that since Olivia had never shown this side of her before this. Olivia has always been a reserved type of person since she rarely gets any chance to get closer to someone because of her identity.
Aldrich tried his best not to say anything since he couldn't be showing his emotion in front of everyone else except her daughter. Everyone inside the limousine knows that their king wasn't pleased with what they just saw. But who would even dare to say anything?
Olivia takes her phone from her handbag and types something while giggling like a little girl. Since Aldrich was sitting next to her, he saw what Olivia sent just now.
"You look younger with the new suit, sir."
A moment later, Olivia left the limousine. Everyone inside tries their best to not look at the Aldrich.
Aldrich began to speak calmly, "Ian, do you know who is that person running with a suit?"
Ian nervously replied, "My king, he is the commoner hired by the college to be an instructor here. Though he is new, the college mentioned that he got selected by acing the physical entry examination. Currently still clean from any crime and good with his job. He has been financially unstable due to his family's debt."
Aldrich deeply sighed, then looked at others.
"Is there any reason for him to be so close to Olivia?"
