Chapter 2 F. U. C. K

It all started with a scream! Oh... Sorry? Not a scream, It was an ice cream. I guess. (I know you are thinking how stupid this narrator is, but believe me... I'm the best, you've ever experienced).

Before killing any innocent bastard, I wanna clear 3 Things...

Number 1 - This world is not Earth. This is "ARD." And the people are 'Ardians.'

Number 2 - In this world, there is the only country name "The Kiiing's Empire" every other place of the ard is part of this empire.

Number 3 - The first conqueror of the ard who named the empire after him is the real reason why everything is abnormal in this world... (He was real shit).

Well, from the narrow streets of Kleine Stad (small town of The Kiiing's Empire) to the Capital of Koninklijk (the imperial state of The Empire) everyone is familiar with the Kiiing's University (the world's most famous and infamous university).

'Famous,' for their learning tactics, for their great contribution to the evolution of knowledge. And "Infamous," because people of The Kiiing's Empire believe that the university is cursed by the first King of The Great Empire. He also built it about 880 years ago. (Also the first king conquered the ard about 920 years ago).

Anyway, it's not that horrible but I think I should take you to the main view of the university. In the university, there are thousands of lecturers, assistants, professors, and other liberals. More interesting thing is, this university is as large as any big state of the empire. And about half of the entire ard's population have learned from here and also learn here. (You can imagine how the entire state can be seen as if it were to be built as a university).

(I've forgotten something to mention above, it's about the fourth thing).

Number 4 - At present, there's no king in the empire. The Empire is working under the government. And in history, there was the only king, before and after him nobody.

Every year in the university, on average 1000 to 5000 people die for many reasons and people use to ignore these incidents. Everyone in the ard wishes to be here in the university but not just to be a part of the university. Then, why do people want to come here despite knowing its curse?

(I'm gonna add another point... It will help you, stupid. don't judge me).

Number 5 - In the university, the first president and the only king made a culture. An exam which decides the next future president of The Kiiing's Empire every ten years. (You can say, the first king was not in the mood to rule the world).

Every year university hosts an award ceremony where they honor their staff with exciting awards and titles to motivate them and to show others to do like them. On this big day, the President himself gives awards to the winner. (After a decade the best one will get a chance to be the president for the next 10 years).

Like every year, the management hosted the award ceremony on the birth anniversary of the first king. (Another fun fact - The people of the ard are dumbass enough that they believe the first king was not a normal human, he was a "God," who came on the ground to unite the world).

Well, the people are almost right with their thoughts because he conquered the whole world alone.

The preparation for the award ceremony starts two months before the date. The entire university is decorated by five lakh laborers and artists. The main event of the award ceremony is hosted in 'The Ball Ground City' of the university. (It is the largest stadium of the ard where one million people can enjoy the festival at the same time).

Every building of the university was hitting the spark, the lightning was going directly into the head through the eyes. Every street was fascinating like always, it's a great festival of the kiiing's empire. (Actually, the empire has only one official festival which the ardians call "The Birth Of God," which they celebrate on the same day in the memory of the first king who made the empire unite).

If you ask me, 'how the hell this heaven (university) looks like,' I probably say, "It's hell." Well, it's fascinating, the ancient architecture of the ard made up of the black stone (the most horrible thing but people adapt it too), each building of the kiiing's is itself the university of average size. About 9 percent of the total population of ard is employed here. (Yes, in this world this university is everything because it's a gift from God).

Now, the date of the great festival has arrived. People are full of energy and excitement looking happy in their traditional dresses. Men have their swords in hand (it's a culture of ard from the very ancient time that every boy of the ard must have a sword made by their own self, they believe the art of sword tells how strong that man is. And I think you already guessed, who has the best sword of all times, 'of course it's me.' Lol... With tears, 'not me but the great king was).'

And the ladies... They all are beautiful and cute, I wanna go with someone too to enjoy the festival but there is a problem, and the problem is the man behind her holding a sword. Yeaah, forget this one. How unlucky I am that 'me' I mean 'I' is stuck here to tell you guys the fuckin story...

The ball ground city was full of crowd, wherever you see you'll see the greatness of this university. Everyone is waiting for The President, then the great festival will start.

Every light of the university got off, the service team went for a search in the electricity house, and in their way suddenly, the stage's light glowed up. There they can see The President himself is standing alone and everyone is shocked. The President with headlong hair some are white and the left are black in traditional dress is on the stage holding his magnificent sword, 'Ardians... The great people of the great kiiing's empire, I'm glad that today we can witness this day with the blessings of the god,' he said while coming ahead with a loud voice. (I'm sure he doesn't need any mic and big speakers to connect with people because the truth is like air, and it travels so far around the world. Not just the people of the ball city, every ardian can hear him and also they can see him live without being there).

'Let's start the festival with the name of the first king,' he waved and ordered others to proceed. The chairman and vice-chancellor came in front of the stage, the ceremony is usually hosted by the chairman but the VC was hosting it this year, 'Before doing anything let's pray together for peace, prosperity, health, happiness and for the future of our people and the world,' VC said while raising his hands.

(After some formalities, and entertainment they finally came to the point of 'awards,' one by one they announced categories and the president gave the award to the winners).

After the ten days of celebration now the ardians are back at their works. Everything was quite normal like usual in the kiiing's empire and in the university too. In the streets children were playing games together, the working men are going to their factories and offices, the teenagers who have not yet learn the art of making a sword are in 'The Burnt Steel forge' where their mentors are training them and others who have made their swords are learning fighting skills in 'The War Shells.' (There's a proverb of the ardians - The fire is god and god is forge, it makes the things what we need).

In the afternoon break, five backbenchers who are in the 12c block building, opposite the main building of the university, go backyard for smoking cigarettes as usual. They were talking to each other and laughing at dirty jokes.

One of them see someone is hanging in the backyard, they were shocked-one of them said, 'Fuck man, the man is hanging around us,' another guy said, "We should continue our conversation guys?' The one who's scared, 'we should inform others,' "Why do we go to inform others? What if they take action against us for smoking on the campus, do you have any answer?" (The oversmart dumbass). After 10 minutes of deep discussion, they decided to go back to their classes, and while the discussion they all were continuously staring at the man who's died.

In the evening, the gardener saw the dead man hanging in the backyard and screamed, he ran fast to tell others. The first man who recognized the dead man was Professor Jim Jack, he was shocked to find his colleague was dead. When the chairman and VC arrived, the workers lowered down the dead body. He was Asst. Professor Jean S Nicole, the chairman was shocked to know the best they have is now the best they had.

(Literally, I am laughing now with tears and thinking, how can someone hang this guy by the 30 feet high roof)?

Chairman contacted the police department, Senior officer Clark Black is going to investigate this case (One of the best investigators of the ard, top medalist and his sword is something that nobody wants to face). 'It seems like suicide and of course, it should be, the man in quick give a kick end to his life by giving his life, sad naaa.' Officer said, with a chill mood, he searched around the place where he found the wood box beside the pillar which was near to the hanging rope.

'This case is fuckin easy to solve, why the hell they appointed me to investigate,' he said to his investigating partner in a rude way. "How?" His partner asked him to know more about his skills because he is a newbie.

'A 10-year-old kid can tell you this, he hanged himself after climbing this box.' "Are you sure sir?" 'Fuckin sure,' then they both left the university to close this case. After reaching the headquarters Clark said, "take this file and write a report of suicide case of Asst. Professor Jean S Nicole, who died up by hanging himself."

But his junior investigator, Patrick Walls wasn't satisfied with this, so he decided to investigate more about the case. He went to the university again and while asking questions to the staff he saw some strange actions by the VC, he found something strange while talking to the VC of the university. When Patrick asked him, 'What do you think Dr. Sapphire, why your staff would want to do suicide?' Dr. Philson Sapphire answered, "Professor Jean was a blessing to our university, I never thought that he could do something like this," with a sad face he looked at him.

'It's strange to hear good from you for Dr. Jean,' he said to make VC confused and he succeeded. VC said, "how could you know officer, this guy who just died was valued to me and to this university as well!" He shouted at the officer. 'You are, one of the best actors... I have seen before, nice effort doctor but can you tell me, why most of the staff of the 12A building are talking about you and Professor Jean? Do you have any answer to why everyone is saying you're the one who fought with him about eight days ago and can you tell me why you were fighting that day?' Officer Patrick tried to pull him to confess the truth.

VC said, "believe me, officer, I didn't kill my colleague, it was a small issue but it can't be a reason for killing someone... I was a little jealous of him because the President himself said, "he was the best," he confessed the truth. 'You're saying to me that you killed your colleague because of his early success?' Officer doubted him, again. 'Okay... Let me figure it out, b-but... If I found you guilty, you'll definitely beg me for your life... You understood, na?' "It's not what you are thinking, officer... Of course, I'm not guilty," VC said and pointed to the door as if saying get out from here.

(I guess, it'll end soon as officers work hard to find the suspect. Though, let's see the next move).

Patrick is a very patient guy, so he will try to find out the reason for Jean's death, with his best efforts. He is not much experienced and despite that, he is willing to do it without thinking of the outcomes. In these kinds of situations when he gets zero clues and in his mind there's just confusion, he finds a place where he can stay in a peaceful environment to take some time to think about the solution to get rid of this confusion. (And in ard, you will find every other place more peaceful than the first).

He thought, and again he thought and he continuously tried to think what could be a reason for Jean's death? 'If it's a suicide, then I just need to find out the reason for his suicide attempt.'

All of a sudden, he stood up and held his sword tightly and wished to go to the university, direct to Jean's working room. In a single second, he reached there. He searched for any-any single clue that can prove that Professor Sapphire (the old shit) is the real suspect.

The old shelves of myth books, bocote wood's smell, its fragrance is quite good but by the time the shelves seem too dark... These books are about the legend-the king, who conquered the world alone. The cover of these old books is still too hard, it's ragged from some sides and its edges are faded, the title of this book is pretty interesting... "Kneel before I kill." When he was trying to look around his table, VC came in and asked, "You're not satisfied yet officer, don't you?" 'I don't want any interruption by you old shit, don't try to mess my investigation!' He said loud so anyone can hear his words clearly from outside of the room. "I was just looking for some books here but I guess you don't like my presence?" He said with a little smile on his face.

Before the VC leaves the room, Patrick finds a crushed paper in Jean's pen-pot. The paper was stained with blood on its right-bottom edge. He unfolded the paper, while VC was staring at him... It was a note written by Professor Jean S Nicole by himself, It was shocking to read and it was enough as evidence to arrest VC of the Kiiing's university Dr. Philson Sapphire.
