Crimson Overlord

Chapter 52

The following morning Orpheus and the others arrived in their classroom. The atmosphere was a little bit tense because of what happened yesterday, but Orpheus ignored the weird stares he was receiving from the other students.

”Good Morning Kyle, why didn’t you wait for me?” Xiaosu asked as he sat down next to Orpheus.

As usual, he ignored Xiaosu; suddenly, there was a small commotion. Daniel had just arrived; his eyes scanned the classroom and landed on Orpheus, and paused for a moment.

Naturally, Orpheus noticed that Daniel was staring at him, but he paid him no heed. Most students thought that some exciting drama would unfold soon, but unfortunately, nothing like that happened. Daniel only stared at Orpheus for a moment before going toward his seat.

Those who were expected something to happen ended up disappointed. They hadn’t the chance to chat before their teacher Quinn Asmodeus walked in.

”Good morning, everyone. We have three new students who will be joining our class.” Quinn said the moment she walked in.

The students were shocked; if it were one or two new students, it would be understandable, but three at once, they wondered what they were doing to come today.

Orpheus chuckled and was looking forward to his daughter’s subordinate.

”Come in.”

Following Quinn’s permission, a girl entered; instantly, everyone gulped because of the girl in question. She had an exquisite physical, perfect form, D cup breasts. Her face was of seductive beauty that seemed to contain all the bewitching seduction of the world.

She had a black long hair and a pair of beautiful golden eyes. Those eyes effortlessly released a boundless bewitching allure that threatened to yank a person’s soul out of their body. Her lips were rose and dewy that one would want to taste them. They look like forbidden fruit. Even if one knows that it was forbidden, one couldn’t help wanting to taste them; this was a devil’s temptation. A glance from her could penetrate a man’s soul and topple his will, causing his body to burn with desire. She could transform any man into a beast; she’s a succubus, a true Femme fatale.

Most males in the classroom were caught under her charm; even the usually composed Leon felt a strong desire to possess this woman, and only a few were calm. Ren Xiaosu was not bewitched; he was frowning, trying his best not to look at her because he didn’t know how long he could endure her charm. Grim Asmodeus was also frowning because he felt like he knew this girl somewhere but couldn’t recall where.

Orpheus was the calmest one; this girl’s charm did not bewitch him.

‘Nemesis, huh?!’ He mumbled, feeling a headache coming. Orpheus knew this girl; she was the daughter of one of the few friends he had. She was a troublesome girl because she was in love with him. He had expected her to show up after he came back but not this soon. He was glad that she had disguised herself to some extent; if not, it would have caused not a small amount of problem if her real identity were to be known.

”Can you do something about your charm magic?” Quinn asked with a heavy sigh, and the new student smiled and canceled her charm; she then stepped forward.

”Hello, everyone. I’m a new transfer student. My name is Nemesis Ares. Nice to meet you; take care of me.” When she said those words, her eyes were locked onto Orpheus, and she didn’t particularly try to hide it, so most of the students wondered if the two knew each other.

”Choose a seat in the back,” Quinn ordered, and Nemesis walked toward the back and chose a seat not too far from Orpheus.

”Next!” Quinn said, and the next student walked. It was another beautiful woman with white hair and light red eyes; it was this same woman who appeared a few days ago at the train station holding a dagger name Scarlett.

The moment this girl walked in, the others students had one sentence to describe her, she was cold, way too cold.

Without a change in her expression, she introduced herself.

”Lilith Blake.”

”Hum?” Amber was surprised as she had not heard that there was another Blake out there, but come to think about it was not like she knew anything about her master.

A small commotion started when the girl introduced herself; Xiaosu looked at Orpheus, wanting to see his reaction. Would he be happy that another family member had come? However, to his disappointment, he was calm, like nothing in this world could affect him.

‘Sigh! I’ve expected this, but it’s still frustrating. He is a way too unreadable.’ Xiaosu mumbled to himself before looking at the girl who walked and sat beside Nemesis; the latter smiled and tried to start a conversation with Lilith but got ignored.

Meanwhile, Leon sent a secret message to his subordinate to investigate this girl. They desperately needed information about Orpheus. Someone who had just arrived, sharing the same family as him, couldn’t be more appreciated; if they succeeded in acquiring any information on this girl, they would be closer to knowing more about Orpheus. Leon was not the only one doing this; Grim and Daniel were doing the same thing.

Quinn Evelyn Asmodeus sighed; the current atmosphere inside the classroom looked like a battlefield where a silent war was taking place.

”The last student you can come in.” She said, and finally, the last new student walked in.

The moment she entered, a commotion broke.

”Eh? A demi-human.” Some exclaimed, and their teacher chuckled; it was why she didn’t let the three students introduce each other at the same time, because of reactions like these.

It was extremely rare for demi-humans to be put in the special class; the last time this happened was twenty years ago. Demi-humans don’t like to attend the same academy as the other races; only recently did this start to change.

The girl that walked in had the same height as Amber, white hair like the snow, silver eyes, and a pair of wolf ears and wolf tail.

”I’m Snow Argent Cathwulf.” She said before walking toward her seat. From the beginning until the end of her introduction, her face remained expressionless.

Another student with a cold personality thought most of the students; however, Orpheus was not in the mood to share their opinion. The moment this girl walked in, he had a bad feeling; something deep inside him warned him that this girl was dangerous. He frowned and decided to look into it to understand why he felt like this.
