After dropping Alice and Luna off in their rooms, Theos made sure they would fall asleep comfortably in their beds.
He didn't try to do anything to them; after all, they were too tired, and he knew that perfectly well, so it wasn't unreasonable.
"Now it's ti to look for my room keys," Theos muttered.
Going around the academy alone was not fun at all; out of sheer boredom, he decided to look for the keys to his room.
The only place where he could be given so keys was in the Teachers' and Administrators' Lounge of The Academy, so he went there without distractions.
On the way, Theos thought and rembered his plans for the day. 'First, look for the keys; second, ally with Astaroth; he's too strong not to take advantage of his strength,' Theos thought.
He knew more than anyone else Astaroth's capabilities, being the only one currently in Class Zero to be Advanced Rank, except for Theos, of course.
Being Advanced Rank, in the novel, Theos and Astaroth are practically equally powerful; only Theos has more coldness in thinking and is even more ruthless than Astaroth himself; therefore, in a head-to-head battle, it is difficult to win.
Yes, it is difficult, even though Theos has that ntality advantage, Astaroth's combat experience is far superior to that of Theos. A radical difference.
All this is because of Astaroth's chaotic past.
But leaving aside the original Theos, now it is a new Theos, much more powerful and just as ruthless, and with much more combat experience.
Thinking about all this, he inadvertently arrived in front of the door to the academy's administrators' and teachers' offices.
"Okay, let's get this over with," he muttered, knocking a couple of tis on the door.
*knock* *knock*
Theos waited there for a few minutes, but when a couple of minutes passed and no one answered, he decided to knock again.
But just as he was about to knock again, the door itself opened, where a woman's face peeked out. "Who are you?" She asked curiously, her beautiful eyes looking into Theos' face.
Staring at him, she jumped and covered her mouth. "Don't tell , you're Theos Von Fallen! Heir to the Fallen family..." She said in awe.
Theos nodded. He had already said his na and status, so why introduce himself now?
"Oh, I see, I see," she said, shaking her head slightly.
Just one action of hers made Theo frown. 'Belle Iris... One of the heroines of Alan's harem, a sowhat... Peculiar teacher,' Theos rembered.
But he only rembered the na and Belle's general plot made him feel slightly angry.
And the anger didn't co from anywhere; it didn't co simply from seeing her face but from the villain in Belle's plot.
"Belle, what are you doing wasting your ti?" said a female voice, which although sounding thin and soft, conveyed authority.
Belle turned at the sound of her superior's voice, and with a guilty face, she apologized sincerely. "Oh, I'm sorry, Sophia, it's just that I got excited about the young man I have here," she said.
Sophia frowned slightly, moving to look at the "young man" Belle was referring to.
There, she saw him, just as Theos saw her.
She opened many eyes to who Theos is: the most talented man in the whole world, the heir to the most powerful and respected family in the world, and countless other titles.
Theos' narrowed eyes widened at the sight of Sophia.
One of the first Villains in the novel! And also the Top2 of his favorite characters!
His first favorite character is the original Theos Von Fallen, but his second favorite character is between Nichts Whitelock and Sophia Bolian.
"Nice to et you," Sophia suddenly said, snapping out of her surprise.
Theos smiled slightly. "Nice to et you too, my na is Theos Von Fallen, and you?" he asked.
It wouldn't be very appropriate to call her by na without her introducing herself, it would sound a bit creepy and scary, like a stalker.
So he decided to have a friendly conversation.
"My na is Sophia, Sophia Bolian, the third-year Class Zero teacher," she introduced herself, choosing to ntion that she is a teacher of a more important class so that she would not be treated inferior.
This is one of the many things Theos likes about her. Sophia is the kind of person who doesn't hide; she is who she is; she hates being underestimated and looked down upon, so she doesn't hesitate to use her status and power to dominate other people.
"What brings you here," before Theos could answer, she threw a question at him, frowning slightly.
"I ca to get my keys, rather, to get so new keys; I lost them," Theos admitted, expecting sympathy from Sophia.
And so it was! Sort of...
She frowned more. "I rember two won yesterday ca to keep your keys, I believed them because I knew that one of those who ca to get your keys is your maid, plus they ca with your sister... They lost the keys or were we tricked?" she asked cautiously.
She could not allow that the second option was what happened. If that were the case, if the Fallen family wanted it, it could deal a severe blow to the reputation of the Academy and, above all, to the Administration office.
And Sophia, one of the leading teachers and administrators of the entire Academy, could take the hardest hit of all.
Fortunately, Theos shook his head. "No, they were my maid and sister, you're not wrong. But they lost my keys, and I'm here to get a copy."
Hearing the black-haired man's words, she sighed in relief. "It's okay, I'll bring it to you shortly," she affird, before turning her around and disappearing.
Theos stood there waiting, motionless. With an uncomfortable Belle on the other side.
Fortunately for the uncomfortable Belle, Sophia arrived rather quickly, it only took a couple of minutes.
Holding out her hand, she opened her palm, signaling her that she had sothing to give him.
"Here are your keys."
