RAFFAELO POV.
Most classes had ended by now, and that included the second year. So it was expected I encountered so of them on my way to their LT, and on observing them, I could recognize a few.
Most were system users, and popular ones in the far future….or past. It didn't matter, but I seriously had to consider the system users I would convince to join my club.
As it is, the great families have three kinds of reactions from the students, especially the system users. One would be the nonchalant reactions, students who literally didn't care about our upbringings.
Honestly, those were the kind of people I needed in my club.
The second would be respectful reactions. They actually care, and they tend to show their respect, admiration, or fear when they're dealing with us. They mostly avoid us in general.
Third were the hateful reactions. Just the sight of us made them viciously upset, and it was obvious from their expressions or choice of words.
They are not that difficult to deal with, but at the sa ti, they're quite annoying to deal with.
For example, if I decide to end an argunt with them peacefully and apologize, these bastards may get 'entitled' and expect an apology even if they were in the wrong.
'The best way to deal with them is just to knock so sense into them with overwhelming superiority….not that I have a superiority complex'.
Because of this distinction, I have to be careful of who I select or ask to join my club, because as much as so could beco a great deal of help to us, so could also beco a great pain and weakness. And a sign of weakness on the battlefield will only lead to death.
I sighed, shoving my thoughts aside, and focusing on the task at hand.
'Louis should still be in class if I'm correct. He's probably waiting for Mariam so they could leave together…..what a hassle.
There was nothing I could do about it, you can't force love. A past life won't always repeat itself, especially if you change events that had once occurred.
'If they were like this now, then they were most likely like this in my past life as well…..after all, It was not until Louis' death before Mariam even recognized my existence as more than just friends'.
A sigh escaped my lips as I got to my destination. I stopped, and slowly looked up, basking in the sunlight of the beaming sun while sophomores walked past with intrigued glances.
It's not a cri for a junior to visit their seniors, and most would just prefer to mind their business, but most of the glances I received were from girls.
'What can I say, I'm beautiful'.
I never really paid attention to it even in my past life, but I tend to attract unwanted attention with my features.
'well even I would be intrigued by a blind person walking about like he could see clearly….not that I'm blind or anything'
After a brief mont, I cast away my thoughts yet again and walked into the LT. Stay connected via My Virtual Library Empire
Firstly, I needed to find Louis in the Gold class.
As I walked in, the coolness of the LT interior suffused , contrasting with the warmth of the sun that I experienced a short mont ago. I could feel my system slowly get invigorated, and energy coursing through my veins…..well aura.
It was sothing I observed in the North, but I tend to get stronger in colder environnts, and this coolness wasn't that far from it.
However, the temperature regulator would change once it gets too cold.
I quickly spotted the door leading to the Gold class from the students in red exiting it. So seed familiar, while others seed...even more familiar.
I stood by the far side, ignoring the glances until my gaze t a particular black-haired girl.
She flinched, then suddenly turned away, increasing her pace forward. I raised a brow in confusion, recognizing the girl instantly. "Rita Vinci?"
The side of my lips curled upwards, but just then two familiar voices shook back to reality.
"Huh, Raffaelo Jun?"
"Is that Raffaelo Jun, brother?!"
'Hah shit…..I forgot about those monkeys'. Turning towards the door, I t the gazes of two familiar boys from the group of sophomores exiting the Hall.
"Oh, nice to see you again. Rhett, Brett. It's been a while".
Of course, every year had at least one Great family as a mber, and in the second year, we had four.
Louis La Teur, Rhett Son Goku, Brett Son Goku and Rita Vinci.
"Holy shit! It really is him!" Rhett cried out, his tone laced with excitent.
"Brother, calm yourself. We've talked about this before!" Brett said, snapping at his elder twin while adjusting his well-combed hair.
They were so contrasting, yet so alike, and their monkey tails stood out like a sore thumb. 'Not like they cared, though.'
"Oh, yeah…yeah" Rhett coughed out, calming himself as they approached .
By this ti most of the second years were gone, and only a few remained in class.
'I need to quickly find Louis and get this over with'
"Sorry, but I don't have ti at the mont. Do you guys know where I can find Louis?"
They glanced at each other and then at .
"That gloomy fella? He's still in class right?" Rhett asked with a raised brow.
"Yes, he is. But what business do you have with Louis?" Brett asked, his fingers placed under his chin.
'Well, wouldn't you like to know…' I thought, but I quickly erased the thought. Rhett and Brett would have been nice additions to my club if they weren't already in one. It was compulsory to join one, but Louis wasn't the type of person to do things he had no interest in, and no one in their right mind would want to ss with him into joining theirs.
"It's more or less a personal business," I replied, and they glanced at each other, but then Rhett suddenly flinched, turning towards .
"Oh yeah! Yeah! Forget that! I just rembered I needed you to join the Combat Departnt Club" He said, smiling from ear to ear.
"....why's that?" It was the club I joined in my past life, but I don't necessarily see the point in him asking to join, especially when they never paid attention to in my past life.
"...why else? You're strong. And I like fighting strong people"
"....Huh…." I said, glancing at Brett. 'He's the reasonable one right?'
Brett, noticing my gaze, sighed. "Yes, my brother is quite interested in you, especially after your battle against each other.
You defeated our primordial forefather, even if it is just a fracture of his actual abilities….but you've proven how strong you are from that battle"
"I also heard how you defeated the rlin girl and Jang Kang Lin! The way you deceived everyone was cool" Rhett said with a bright smile, showcasing his canine fangs.
'Oh wow…I thought they would hate …but they're actually impressed?'. This was surprising and contrasted a lot with their mother's reactions.
Their mother, the fox goddess, Aria Son Goku attempted to put in her mind control, so I expected her kids to harbor so kind of evil intent towards .
It was like Brett understood my dumbfounded reaction, as he said. "Don't get us wrong. We do not like you in any way…but strength is unparalleled in the world of the Beasts.
Soone as strong as you should at least be respected".
"Oh, well….thank you…but I can't for now" I replied, scratching the back of my head at the sa ti. 'Well, this is new….and awkward'. I thought, but then again, ti was of the essence. I needed to find my target soon.
"...I..…I really have to go now"
Rhett and Brett nodded simultaneously, restraining themselves from asking further questions, but as I walked past them, Rhett called my na.
"Raffaelo Jun!"
I stopped, turning back with a raised brow. 'Why is he shouting?' I thought ignoring the blatant stares from my sophomores.
"Let's battle again. I won't lose a second ti"
My eyes slowly bulged, and my lips curled up. "I would like nothing more".
Battle partners. That's what you call people whose bond is the urge to fight one another and strengthen themselves while doing so.
It's not friendship, as it holds more respect for one another than friendship does.
'It's not bad….maybe getting close to them will help know more about Aria Son Goku'.
We slowly turned at the sa ti and walked away with a satisfied smile on my face.
I walked into the room, and taking a look around, I spotted the figure I was searching for.
His presence was sothing you could not feel unless you at least attempted to use aura or mana, but my eyes would suffice for things like that.
It seed like he felt my presence at the sa ti since he looked away from the window he had been staring at and turned towards my direction, facing downwards towards the door from the right edge of the Hall.
A blank expression on his face, but just then from the corner of his lips, a smirk appeared.
