One hour teacher Quinn switched him to another dormitory, not forgetting the 500 credits of the bet. The night passed quietly.
A day passed in a flash after Orpheus and Amber arrived at the academy.
The Heaven Star Academy beca livelier as the beginning of school drew closer.
Even so, that was only relative to the academy.
The sprawling campus stretched far into all directions, with dozens of kiloters between east and west as well as south and north. Currently, there are less than 5,000 teachers and students scattered across such a large territory. It was no exaggeration to call this a vast but sparsely populated place.
In the absence of unified action, the campus appeared largely deserted day and night as the teachers and students were concentrated in one area. With an increasing number of first-year students arriving on campus, their presence added a great deal of liveliness to the atmosphere.
This was a scene that Orpheus had never seen before. In the past, he never went to school, so he won’t know how it was. This was his first going to school.
The new dormitory that teacher Quinn placed him in also had two bedrooms and one living room, though it was much larger and luxurious. In fact, the entire residential building was much more extravagant than the rest. Orpheus had particularly paid attention to this. It was now less than 24 hours before the beginning of school, but he remained the only resident in the building. His roommate was either lazy or arrogant. It doesn’t matter. He didn’t plan to live here for too long anyway; it was inconvenient; he needed his own space; fortunately, it was possible to get one. Almost anything is possible in the Heaven Star Academy; you can rent a villa if you have the credit; it was why he provoked that teacher who ca to test him. With the 500 credits acquired, he could acquire a dium size mansion. To apply for a personal mansion costs 50 credits and 150 credits to rent it for a whole year.
Just as Orpheus was thinking about going to rent a mansion stopped because suddenly, a crisp voice that sounded familiar ca from outside the door.
Then, he heard the door being unlocked. A young man walked in, a handso youth walked in, with long black hair and green eyes. The mont Orpheus saw this youth’s face he knew imdiately that he ca from the Eastern Empire.
At the sa ti, the youth walked in and saw Orpheus; his eyes widened, not because he was more handso than him because of his presence. As a future emperor, he had a sixth sense for exceptional people, people one should not ss with, and the man with crimson eyes before him was both.
Right after, the young man smiled.
”Nice to et you. I’m Ren Xiaosu.”
Ren Xiaosu, the crown prince of the Eastern Empire, introduced himself with a sly smile. He extended his hand to ask for a handshake. Orpheus thought of refusing him but had the feeling that it would be annoying; yes, his first impression of Ren Xiaosu was this fellow would sure be annoying. Having lived longer than him, Orpheus could easily see through him; he had seen how he reacted upon seeing him; his eyes shone like he had found a rare gem worth getting. It was why he was trying to befriend him. Orpheus had nothing against people using others, as we all do.
While Xiaosu had decided to befriend Orpheus because he was sure he was not a nobody and would accomplish great things, Orpheus was thinking of making this man his subordinate. Judging from his bearings, he must be the crown prince of the Eastern Empire; getting him ant getting the empire.
”Kyle Blake.”
Having decided how to use him, Orpheus also extended his hand and shook Xiaosu’s hand. Still, the latter felt an inexplicable chill, as if he had done sothing he shouldn’t have, but he quickly shook his head and attributed this feeling to being overly sensitive. At least he encountered soone worthy of befriending.
”Good na,” Xiaosu said while ruminating through the biggest family nas he knew but sadly found no Blake.
”We will beco good friends. Let’s eat.”
Xiaosu shook Orpheus’s hand hard enough that their hands were swaying. The man’s bright smile lit up his entire face as he babbled.
Orpheus’s expression was stiff. As he thought this man was annoying. He talks too much; he doesn’t look like the crown prince of a big empire.
Xiaosu dragged Orpheus out of their dormitory to eat. They didn’t go to the cafeteria but chose a small restaurant where they ate their lunch.
”Tell , being put in that dormitory ans sothing?”
Finally, Orpheus said sothing. He did it because he was getting annoyed as Xiaosu never stopped talking. He wondered if he was usually like this or just because he was talking with him.
”Ah! You don’t know?”
Orpheus glared at him. He had shown more emotions than when he was with Amber. This man was really annoying.
”Cough! Cough! That block is a special block for those who will be put into the S class, the Special class. I heard all the princes and princesses and other exceptional students will be put in the S class.” Xiaosu explained.
”Prince like you and your sister, right?”
”So, you knew, but you acted like you didn’t.”
Xiaosu sighed; after introducing himself, he deliberately omitted saying his full identity just to see if Orpheus knew him, but he did not react, so he thought he didn’t. However, he knew all along, Xiaosu understood sothing with the few minutes spent with this man; he was unreadable; he was like an old man in young man’s skin.
Ignoring the weird stare Xiaosu was giving him, Orpheus asked another question.
”Who will be our teacher?”
”It’s the extrely talented Quinn Asmodeus.”
”I see,” Orpheus mumbled. Xiaosu was too focused on talking about their teacher, so he didn’t notice Orpheus’s eyes shining when he heard the na Asmodeus.
‘So, they beca the ruling family. I wonder what happened.’ He murmured. Another thing to check. He thought.
