Kalego's POV:

As I came into the room, I found my student which was not so funny also my master since I was his familiar. He was shaking like a leave and started hugging himself while his nails dug into his own skin.

Me: MOVE!

Balam and the rest of the staff was just there watching him in shock and terror unsure what to do. Normally demons were proud creature and never show fear or any sign of weakness and yet this kid was here in front of us and crumbled into pieces. Something was wrong and I didn't know what it was but seeing him like this made me instinctively run to Iruma's side, grab him and hug him. Not only that but I tried my best to calm him down.

Me: Iruma, listen to my voice. Breathe kid.

It was my first time seeing such a server panic attack. Normally all I would see was a student shaking but he was literally having a full-blown panic attack in front of me.

Thank god he calmed down or so I thought because in the next moment he just busted through a closed window. Needless to say, that he shattered it and fell.

Me: I want an explanation after this!

That was all I said before following him out of the window and he to my surprise was falling down without even opening his wings. It was a natural instinct for a demon to open them but he didn't. This made me only suspicious if what Balam said was true or not. However now was not the time to think about this, I had a kid to safe after all.

I managed to reach out to him and he was shaking even more. By the time I had him in my arms, we nearly crashed to the ground if not for me pulling up in the nick of time.

What should I do with you Iruma...

For some odd reason seeing him being so fragile made me think that he wasn't the troublemaker person I thought he was. He looked like a glass doll to me one that could break any seconds and to my relieve he passed out very soon after I got him in my hands and carried him back. He felt cold by the touch and was still shaking. The pearls of sweat were visible to anyone looking at him. He was clearly in pain and not only that but I felt something wet as I was carrying him and touching his back. Needless to say, that he was as white as a ghost.

Me: Iruma!

Just one look at him and something in me awoke something was telling me to protect my master. I didn't know if this was my sense as a teacher or if this was something to do with the familiar bond I had with him. It however felt as if I wanted to protect my own child which he clearly wasn't.

Me: Iruma! Snap out of it!

I feared that something was wrong with him and tried waking him up while I flew back. Once back inside the teacher's office which I entered through the same way I exited it, I put the kid down on the couch and immediately saw the blood on my hand. It was blue which wasn't the color it should have had. The smell however was the same.

Balam: Kalego?

Not wasting any time, I began moving him on his stomach and pulled his uniform up so that I could inspect his wound but what I saw, no, what we saw left us not only speechless but boiling with rage.

Robin: Who would do something this horrible!

Momonoki: This... it looks like... THAT'S SOO HORRIBLE! We need to find that person!

Blushenko: I could try use some healing magic.

Me: Please do.

I went out of the way for the teacher to help my student but the moment he used magic on him his situation worsened and he screamed out in pain.

Blushenko: This is new...

Robin: What do we do?

Stolas: Bandage him up.

Me: I do not want to report this to Sullivan.

Balam: So he really doesn't have wings...

It went unsaid that having no wings meant disabling a demon's true power demoting him of any rank. Knowing this I began thinking back at the flighting course that I let my student participate as to determine their ranks. I literally threw him off the cliff... What a bad decision it was knowing what I just learned.

Iruma: mhmm...

Robin: He is waking up slowly.

Me: Give him space!

At my command everyone backed away only Stolas and I were still close to Iruma as I was lifting him up slightly so that the woman could wrap a bandage around his wounds. We needed to stop the bleeding and since we didn't have any option left without healing magic, we decided to wrap his wounds up for now. After that I was sure to bring him to the infirmary to see if they could have done anything more for him.

It was at the moment I put him back down gently that he fully woke up and tried to move to fast. Of course, seeing his wounds on the back, I immediately stopped him from doing so.

Me: Iruma stay put.

The moment I said that he followed my command and did as I said.

Balam: I am sorry Iruma.

Momonoki: Iruma, do you know who did this to you?

He didn't say a thing but he looked at us and I could tell he tried to follow our conversation but couldn't.

Me: Who trimmed your wings?

Orlas: Kalego! You didn't have to be so blunt.

Me: We need to know!

Blushenko: He's right. We need to punish the person. We are teachers of Babyls!

Iruma: Trimmed?

Momonoki: Oh my gosh, he doesn't even know!

It was clear to everyone who saw his puzzled face that he didn't know what we were talking about.

Blushenko: Listen Iruma, do you remember your wings?

Iruma: ... yes...

Blushenko: Do you know what we meant with trimmed?

Iruma: No.

Momonoki: Iruma, you see trimming or otherwise known as clipping or plugging is a horrible torture act that is forbidden among us demons.

Iruma: But... I... ahm...

Balam: We will take care of you, don't worry. No harm will befall you.

Robin: So can you please tell us who did this?

Iruma: I don't know...

Me: You don't know?

Iruma: ... No... I am sorry. I am so sorry.

I saw him crying and his voice was getting a lot weaker too until he fell unconscious.

Me: Iruma?

At first we all thought that exhaustion took over his frail body but after I touched his shoulder trying to shake him awake again since we needed an answer, I felt his body temperature and he was way too hot.

Not wasting any time, I picked him up and rushed out of the teacher's office.

Me: Inform Sullivan about this!

Balam was following me and I saw Robin run out and in the opposite direction of where we were going.

Balam: If I knew I would cause him such pain... I wouldn't have made dragged him here but told you guys...

Me: It's not your fault. No one would have believed you.

Balam: You think he will be okay?

Me: This is Iruma we are talking about.

Balam: I see. You have faith in him?

Me: Of course. He rules my stupid class with a big heart after all.
