"Hehehe… the guts of those brats to talk about sothing like that… except the Primaria Class of every year, looks like I haven't beaten all the other classes into proper shape… those damn old bastards and their bad habits… Aeonia, should I go wreak so havoc on them?"
After scanning through the recordings that Aeonia has brought her, Aria couldn't help but shake her head in disappointnt as she felt like she fails as the one who holds the highest position in this academy whenever she co to know of sothing like this happening, especially when she always ntions to every students how important it is to not let their ego get in the way of their mind, and yet here they are, majority of them thinking of basically suppressing the freshn just because they want to have their respect.
'If you all really want to earn the respect of your underclassn so badly, then I will give you all just the proper amount of training for that~'
As she freezes the entirety of the record out of the anger still circulating in her system, the horned principal thought to herself all while she is trying to calm herself down for now, trying to watch the person about to be a student directly under her, rembering that this is the first ti that she will have a direct student, not to ntion soone as monstrous if not even more than her.
anwhile, the subject of the volatile principal's observation is currently standing on the spire that his friends are previously standing on, with said friends observing him oddly as if there is sothing that they want to hear from him, said stare being too intense that he couldn't help but just blurt out and ask whatever it is that they want to know.
"Ladies… and gentleman, how about you stop staring at like that and actually talk to ?"
Revealing a modest, slightly troubled smile on his face, the emperor-like young man said as he looks at the three person standing just right in front of him, all of them having almost the sa exact reaction the mont that they heard his words.
The first one who acted upon the opportunity is the one who the young man knows the longest, albeit just by a short amount, that being the elven princess, who already stepped out of the three and approaches him with a question that just makes her eyes glow in excitent.
"Just how much more strength are you hiding? You aren't even using that wind elental magic of yours…"
Wondering how larger the gap between them is despite already showing them things that they think they can never achieve even with the sa level of strength as him, the elven princess asked with the glowing excitent not leaving her eyes, the expression on her face clearly soone who just wants to know more about it all for the sake of it, nothing more or less of a reason there is to it to her.
Hearing the question of her closest friend, the young elven duchess' ears perked up as she is also quite curious about the strength of this young man that she just befriended because of the elven princess, Alea, with this friend seemingly being a bunch of secrets that is just waiting for them to unveil.
anwhile, the roommate of the person in question, despite seemingly being interested about this as well, is clearly still thinking about sothing else to ask, a testant to that being the fact that he wasn't really acting all too similar to the two elven beauties, sothing that might be attributed to him being a bit more logical given that he is a man, or possibly a completely different reason at all.
After hearing the words of the first friend he had ever made after coming out to his travels to the capital, the emperor-like young man, Diluc, thought for a while, not because he is considering whether he want to let her into his secret, but rather because he wants to think about the best degree of strength, he should reveal to them.
Pausing for a while, he finally decided on the degree of strength he should show them, his answer to their questions sothing that just made not only the two elven beauties, but also his roommate, wide eyed in surprise.
Not for any reason that one might expect though, as he doesn't even tell them anything that can answer their question, his answer making them all the more impatient for him to reveal his true strength.
"Just watch while we're still defending our place, who knows, there might be soone in the arena that is capable of dealing with my current strength, just then, I might need to use my actual strength…"
The emperor-like young man answered with a smile and a wink on his face, the words coming out of his mouth sothing that made all those waiting for his answer to feel like they had been played, the two elven ladies gritting their teeth in annoyance as they start thinking of ways that they might get back to this annoying young man, while said young man's roommate rely shakes his head as a wry smile appears on his handso face, the light coming from heavens above just making his appearance all the more beautiful and feminine.
While the three of them are thinking of all sorts of things regarding Diluc though, the young man himself already move past the topic as he once again, manages to use words in order to avoid answering such kind of questions, breathing a sigh of relief as he notices that the mind of those three, particularly the two elven beauties, are already on sothing else, such relief not going to last as it will co to bite him back sooner or later in the future.
"I'm just kidding, given how petty Alfia is, I shouldn't really be doing anything that will make her angry… let's talk about it later"
Seeing the expression on the three's face changing from the exasperation to surprise and then eventually joy, Diluc couldn't help but smile a bit before he once again focuses on sothing else, leaving his back completely open towards the three, showing just how much he trusts them.
Looking at his back, the two elven royalties looked at each other with a smile on their faces, feeling a bit at loss as they couldn't help but feel annoyed that they got satisfied with such answer, that despite his answer being quite vague once again, the two elven ladies thought that it was so much better than his previous answer, the two of them looking at each other before nodding, and then returning to their resting state once again.
On the other hand, while the three starts resting, Diluc rely sat in a place where he can see the surrounding area the most, deciding to defend this place until the three finishes their rest, deciding to entertain himself by just ditating lightly, not letting himself fall into a deep ditative state.
If soone were to find out that he is forcefully keeping himself away from a deep ditative state, they would definitely try to kill him just from sheer jealousy alone, but not because of the fact that he can always keep himself from entering a deep ditative state but rather due to the fact that he can so easily enter the deep ditative state that he even wants to forcefully stop it from happening.
However, no one does, and no one seemingly will be aware of that fact except for the person who achieves such feat, Diluc, and even if there is to be soone else who will beco aware of that, he always felt like this won't be such a big deal so he just always dismissed it.
And due to that, all four of them appears all too peaceful as they all enters ditative states in order to prepare themselves properly for climbing up so higher spires than the one they are currently standing on, the four of them agreeing to that just to make sure that they can enter the second round of this trial for the Primaria Class without any troubles.
As peculiar and odd as it is though, their spire, despite being on a considerably high place that it is already guaranteed that they will enter the second round, along with the fact that every single person occupying this place appears to be people who are recuperating, not a single person dares to even get close the spire they are standing on, with the most daring ones only achieving as far as staring at the spire from a considerable distance away.
The reason for that? The fact that the emperor-like young man domineeringly dealt with every single opponent that he had along the way, the competition, in front of him becoming a mass slaughter like that of a wolf entering a flock of sheep.
And they're the sheeps.
