"Well, I guess I did," My sister continued to laugh after checking that the light was shimring a bright green color.
It was. I an, of course, it was. My heartbeat was at such a low resting point I doubt the app could even pick it up.
"Alright, I trust you, but if you tell anybody the location of the temple, I will be forced to kill them. I won't do anything to you, but they will be forced to die."
"I understand," I smiled, leaning closer in, but my sister quickly pushed back before opening her mouth.
"The location will co to you at a random ti, on a random person, at a random place. Nobody can know about this, okay?"
…
It wasn't long before I had to go to my next class: Sword Mastery which I assud was going to be more entertaining or useful than the Sword Theory I just had… yet, there I was, sitting in class, reviewing the basics.
"Excuse , ma'am. When are we going to actually be using a sword?" An older teenager sitting right beside asked the sa question practically everybody was itching to say.
The woman, whose skin was a light brown, slowly moved her braids from her face, revealing two golden eyes that attempted to pierce straight through the boy's head. Your next chapter awaits on empire
Her eyes were so sharp you'd think they were a weapon in itself, and seeing how the student next to nearly pissed his pants, it was obvious she was approaching that realm of power.
"I apologize," the boy quickly got up and left, presumably to use the bathroom.
"Now! It seems you all are discontent with the fact you are sitting in a classroom, reviewing the basics. I an, I would too, but the fact is, most people are stupid as hell and don't understand such basics… which is why we'll be taking a test tomorrow. We are reviewing the basics, so you have no excuse for failing the test tomorrow. If not, you will be expelled from my class. Nothing more, nothing less. Just straight up expelled… now, everyone who has their hands up, please lower them before you piss off even more."
I leaned back in my seat, lightly smiling as the woman continued her review, and well, it went by pretty fast, carrying us through the entire class.
And as I began to leave, the woman shouted, "The notes are online! So if I see any failures in my goddamn teacher view, I'll be making the rest of the class do pushups and laps for the entire day. I don't care what your other teachers say! You're running until your legs fall off and doing push-ups until your entire upper body shreds every muscle!"
From the looks of it, most didn't like this teacher, and I guess I could agree with them to so extent, but if you want to master the art of swordsmanship, you need discipline and a good foundation.
Without a good foundation, all of your skills and such will crumble when sobody much better than you decide to pick a fight.
And as I walked back to my dorm for the half-an-hour-long intermission between classes, a boy bumped into , placing a small piece of paper in my hand before disappearing… like completely disappearing. It was as if he was never there in the first place.
I glanced down at the small slip of paper in my hand after checking how few people were around , and upon reading it, it disintegrated into dust that gently hit the marble floor.
"Who would have thought…."
Creeeeeeeek
I opened the door to my room, shaking my shoes off with barely any trouble, and then sat down on the edge of my bed.
My foot tapped the ground silently until I saw three… four people enter my room?
"Wait… you're…." I paused for just a mont as I stood up and inspected the boy, who had grown big and strong, presumably hitting puberty by now. "Jake. You're Jake from daycare, right? Alia, the headmaster of the daycare, told to check up on you," I smiled, but my siblings didn't.
The boy, who was about double my size in muscularity and height limply, sat down on Petra's side of the bed, letting out a long sigh before rolling up his sleeve.
He had short brown hair and very dull black eyes. He didn't look too special besides the fact it was clear he had been in the weight room training.
Honestly, I had forgotten about him since he was so forgettable, but I do rember those constantly angry eyes.
"Ugh… fuck… please, slow down," Jake lightly whimpered as Mari began to disinfect a large bruise that had a slight abrasion on his skin.
"Oh, shut the hell up. How did you even end up like this?" Mari questioned the boy, but he seed reluctant to answer, especially when I was there.
His eyes continued to dart between Mari and , his eyes clearly showing a bit of fear as they grazed over .
"Just a small skirmish with my friends. We have been beefing with a few other people, and the fight finally broke out," Jake let out a long sigh as a cooling dical patch was placed over the bruise.
"A skirmish, and you ca out with just a bruise?" I asked, and as the boy slowly rose his pupils towards , an expression of anger soon infiltrated onto that dirty face of his.
"Well, I'm sure you didn't know this, little boy, but I'm a top ranker in my class for Combat Theory. I know how to defend myself…."
"You still don't like ?"
"How could I ever like you when you still act like a dick to …?"
"You were the one who kept looking over at , so I assud you wanted to start sothing… or what? Are you just scared of ?" I smiled, hoping to get a reaction out of him, but he seed to be much more mature than before.
Yes, he was angrier than before, but he was able to hold himself back. Although, he was about to spew a few nonsensical words at .
"Listen up you-"
"Alright! That's enough! God damn! Cyrus, stop instigating a fight!" Mari shouted, shutting both of us up before our words devolved into a physical fight.
