"Is your family na Drake?"
Jason wasn't really good at beating around the bush and asked straight away without hesitating for a single mont, causing Seron to look at him taken aback.
Seron was fine with being treated like that by Jason, but that was because they were friends and not strangers.
However, the blue-haired youth was a complete stranger to Jason, yet decided to talk to him like he was a stupid monkey.
Even the surrounding students were astonished by his behavior, as they could faintly perceive the blue-haired youth's strength.
Jason, however, didn't mind that a single bit, as he looked straight inside the blue-haired youth's blue shining eyes as if both were equally strong.
"So, you know who I am?! How dare you treat like that!" the blue-haired youth burst out, not minding his image, as he did a mont before.
'Why should I care about that? Idiot!' Jason thought inwardly, no minding the blue-haired youth's anger
He was enraged right now as Jason who stood right in front of him was too much of a hassle for him.
"Apparently I know your family na, but neither do I know why you're really how nor am I aware who you are"
Jason admitted before he turned around, in order to squeeze his way through the group that surrounded them, leaving the blue-haired youth alone.
"Did he leave...just like that?" The blue-haired youth mumbled, and he began to wonder how soone without background dared to do sothing like that.
However, at that mont, he rembered sothing his great grandfather told him when he arrived in Cyro-city.
'Max, I know your talent is terrifying but you shouldn′t attract the attention of certain individuals on Astrix, even if the island is governed by our family, alright? It would be best if you stay away from Jason Stella and his company`
Unfortunately, his great grandfather's words, which faintly hinted at Jason's disguised background caused exactly the opposite, as Max beca curious about Jason and who exactly he was.
In the beginning, when he saw him, Max felt extrely disappointed as Jason′s mana core rank was barely at the 3rd Adept rank, which wasn't even remotely close to his own rank.
However, Jason′s behavior was interesting and ignited the lost curiosity in Max′s heart once again.
`Why did gramps tell sothing like that and what exactly is so special about Jason, that not even gramps says sothing to him?
Not only is Seron, the cripple here in such a shabby school but he also seems to be his friend. Furthermore, he ignored and doesn't care about my existence at all?! Whole exactly is he?`
Max′s curiosity heightened, and he decided to pursue Jason who dragged Seron behind him.
The surrounding group of students made his place as the aura around him scared them away, as Max′s blueish gleaming fair skin underlined his outbursting anger.
Seron felt still slightly uncomfortable but Jason′s confident and useless prideful words brought him back to his senses.
As such he looked at his friend, wondering how he figured out that Max was from the Drake family and why he behaved like that, without even daring to accept Max's challenge.
Seron was sure that not a single special combat class seat of any class could handle Max′s strength, except the most powerful prodigies from the main school, but it was still not the best move to disregard his challenge and even retort like that.
Even these might have a hard ti against Max due to multiple reasons but to Seron it looked like Jason only figured out that Max was from the Drake family a few seconds ago.
"Why did you drag away? Don′t you know that offending Max will be bad?" Seron said worriedly and only now did Jason get to know that the blue-haired with blue eyes was called Max.
"So his na is Max Drake...well it doesn't matter! His attitude pissed off!" Jason confessed with a weird smile when both of them heard sothing behind them.
"I pissed you off!?! Why are you so full of yourself? Can't I even challenge soone on Astrix? If everyone is as scared to fight anyone, like you obviously are, humanity would already be annihilated!"
Max heard Jason talking about him and was even more enraged than before.
He couldn′t really understand why Jason was treating him like that and felt treated unfairly.
"I don′t know if you're just behaving like a spoiled child or if you really are one, but why should I risk injuring myself by fighting against soone with a 3rd Expert mana core rank in addition to an unblemished soulbond at the worst. Should I continue and talk about your special trait right now, or can you just stop bothering ?" Halting his steps and turning his head, Jason wanted to finally have so peace.
He was still exhausted from his morning blacksmithing exercises and Jason was not really soone who loved to be the main attraction in his surroundings.
Thanks to Max, who needlessly tried to challenge him, even though he obviously knew the outco, Jason could only co to the conclusion that Max wanted to provoke him or humiliate him by defeating him easily.
But how could Max know that Jason knew about his mana core rank, he intentionally concealed?
If that was everything Jason knew, Max wouldn't be as surprised as he was right now, but Jason even figured out about his soulbond's rank in addition to his physique, which not many people knew about.
At most the big families, clans, companies, and so higher authorities on Canir knew about it, as it was an important secret weapon of his family.
But now, nobody should have figured out about his strength just like that? Max couldn't believe it and he glared at Seron as if he killed his whole family.
"You revealed our family's secret to soone like him?! Don't you know about the silent treaty our families have?!!" Max shouted out, attracting the surroundings students' attention once again.
Noticing that, Jason stepped forward, trying to soothe the escalating situation "It's not like that, relax....or everyone will know about your secret because you′ll expose yourself and nobody here wants that, okay?"
Max averted his gaze towards Jason, whose eyes were much calr than before as he tried to provoke him.
However, this didn't change the fact, that he was still pissed off.
Once Max cald down to a certain degree, Jason was once again able to talk to him as he said
"Old Drake is here....probably to look out for you, right? Should I ask him why you tried to challenge intentionally, even though you're not even a student from the main vanguard school?"
Due to his good eyesight, Jason sighted sothing particular which seed odd as both Max and Seron looked at him weirdly.
"How did you figure that out? I could have been a Vanguard main school student like Seron is a student of the 6th affiliated school?"
Looking at his clothes, Max couldn′t find anything amiss as he threw an asking glance towards Jason, trying to squeeze a question out of him.
"I won′t tell you! Let's go to Old Drake.." Jason simply said, killing the curiosity within Max, as a bad premonition ford in his mind.
`Ughh...F**k!` Max could only think in his mind imdiately forgetting how it was possible for his disguise to be discovered.
Even Seron was unaware, what Jason noticed about Max's outfit, but if Jason answered honestly, both would be left with more questions than before.
That was because his mana eyes detected sothing interesting as it seed like Max′s clothes were actually from an earth elental affinity user, as his eyes perceived traces of earth transmuted mana lingering at the clothes.
