"hah!" I stretched both my arms above my head slightly as I moved through the corridor of the academy, following right behind a blonde who was trying her best to ignore my presence.
As it was a little hot, I took my blazer and mid-coat off, throwing them into the inventory as I moved.
I was just wearing a plain white shirt from the academy, which I had folded just below my elbow with the first three buttons opened.
Moving a little faster, I reached beside her, matching my pace with her.
The class after lunch has been canceled as today marks the start of the activity clubs for the first-year students.
Unsurprisingly, almost everyone in the academy is having the ti of their life as they move through the academy, checking out different clubs arranged by second- and third-year students.
"Are you trying to seduce those innocent girls?" After a long silence, Grace opened her mouth, asking as she glanced at .
"What?" I asked in confusion, but she didn’t reply, so I shifted my gaze around .
Almost every girl within my range of view was glancing towards from ti to ti, while so were blatantly staring at as if I were so kind of souvenir to take ho.
"Well, I can’t do anything about that," I replied, shrugging my shoulders. "I am too handso to be true."
Since the ti when my charm reached the mortal limit, I knew how people would view , especially won and girls.
Even with my rock-bottom reputation, it wasn’t enough for them to stop looking at like love-stuck birds.
One has to understand this: I am accused of trying to rape the princess of the very kingdom they live in.
Even if I remove the princess part, any girl would never want to be with a rapist. And yet, this is not enough for them to stop ogling at .
Plus, my charisma stats are still locked, so I don’t have any charisma in .
Anyone who looks at will think of as a plain man without anything special.
That’s enough to prove how downright charming I am.
"Are you jealous?" I teased her as she kept her silence for quite a while.
"I would rather be happy to die than be jealous of so idiot girls," she replied, looking at in disgust.
"Ahh, I think my heart stopped there for a second," I replied with a painful expression, placing my hand on my chest. "Why are you so venomous?"
Again, she looked at with disgust as she started to ignore my presence.
"Hey Grace, Why did you leave student council?" I asked, looking at her.
".....There wasn’t a place left for there." After a few seconds of silence, she replied.
Right, she was supposed to be Angelina’s assistant and later vice president of the student council, which were both taken by Aeloria.
Right, she was supposed to be Angelina’s assistant and later vice president of the student council, which were both taken by Aeloria.
’But then again how are
’But then again, how are you going to take your revenge now when you are not close with her?’ I thought as I looked at her.
After a few minutes of walking, we arrived at our first destination—the Mana Beast Club, which was having their presentation on the field in the open stadium of the second-year building.
The field was expansive, considering that mana beasts, which are generally larger in size, would be present.
Various security asures were in place to ensure the safety of everyone handling the beasts.
As we walked towards it, the sky was filled with different types of giant birds and beast that jumped as high as the building itself, creating loud sounds every now and then.
"Remind again, who is the club president of this club?" I asked, looking towards Grace.
"Verena," she replied without looking at .
"Ah, Cardin’s sister," I mumbled as I thought about her. She is in her final year, if I rember correctly.
We soon entered the area, and a few third-year students were placed as guards at the entrance, which Grace quickly noted down in her report.
*Screech*
As soon as we entered the stadium, a sudden screeching sound ca towards us, and a large bird landed gracefully right in front of us.
It had a majestic presence with its powerful wings, sharp talons, and a combination of a lion’s body and an eagle’s head.
"A Griffin," I mumbled as I looked at the beast, which had a strap tied to its back and a person with black hair sitting on it.
"Would you like to have a ride?" he asked, looking at us but mainly towards Grace.
"No," she bluntly refused as she wrote it down on her report and walked past the Griffin and the idiot guy.
I smiled at him as I walked pass him as well, but I knew that idiot will not going to stop there.
We both moved around the area, thoroughly inspecting every detail that could potentially cause harm to the students, writing down any minute issues we found.
While I was just hanging around, Grace was the one doing all the work.
"Let’s go." After fifteen full minutes of rigorously checking the whole area, Grace said to as she moved towards the entrance.
"Wait a minute, I have to register my na in the club," I said, looking towards the registration place which was a bit crowded.
"It will take too much ti," she said, glancing at the sa place. "You can co back later."
"Just give a minute," I said, and without waiting for her to reply, I moved towards the registration place.
My presence had already gathered the attention of the students since the ti I entered, and as I moved towards them, the students present there also noticed .
"Move!" I said in an authoritative tone that was not going to take no for an answer, and little by little, they started to make way for towards the place.
"Why are we moving?"
"You don’t know him... I heard he kills anyone who tries to stop him."
"I heard... he took the innocence of girls who he likes."
"I heard... he eats infants to look this handso."
I shot a glare towards the students who were saying these things.
I could ignore all the comnts but not the comnts about my face, I earned that face damn it.
They ran away as soon as I looked at them.
I stood in front of the third-year student who was registering the newcors.he tried to appear calm, but she was having a hard ti at it.
"Register ."
"Y-yes, sir."
"Do I need to tell my na?"
"No-no, sir."
"Good." Smiling at him, I moved back towards Grace.
But just as I turned back, I t soone I didn’t want to see.
Angelina stood there with Aeloria as she looked at , her expression remaining unreadable.
Yeah, they would also be in the club.
I moved past her, ignoring her presence, as I arrived towards Grace.
"Let’s go," I said, smiling.
But she stood there, looking at , her eyes filled with various emotions while her lips were arching up, desperately trying to form a smile.
Well, I just did sothing that she always wanted to happen.
"Yeah," she whispered softly composing herself as she started to move.
"You look happy," I said, matching her pace.
She looked at , her calmness returned, as she said, "it’s too late, Eden."
"I know. I lost my chance when I should have taken it."
"Though it’s good to see that you have overco your obsession with her." She said, her voice filled with a sense of relief.
"I was never obsessed with her." I rebuked.
"You were, Eden."
"I was not."
"You were."
"I. Was. Not."
She just shut her mouth after that, as she understood she can’t argue with .
And that made nod in satisfaction.
"I know it’s out of topic, but I felt good whenever you visited at that ti." Though a lie, I said all of a sudden, which made her halt her step for a second as she looked back at .
"You won’t have ignored every day if you felt good, Eden." She exclaid, her anger-filled eyes t mine.
"You arrived once in a week or two, Grace, how would I ignore you every day." I replied, frowning at her words.
"I ca to et you every day, Eden. You were the one who always rejected to et !"
"What do you an? I never rejected whenever you ca."
"Don’t lie, Eden. Duke Morton would co himself to inform us that."
Saying so, she walked away, her footsteps now stomping the floor, making heavy sounds.
"Arhh, no fucking way."
My mind imdiately snapped as soon as I understood her words.
