Reborn With The All Seeing Eye

Chapter 44: Why Are You Here?

Aaron stared at the princess’s hand for a moment, and said without an inch of emotion.

"I’ll leave you guys alive because you apologized, if not for that..." He didn’t finish his sentence, and walked away leaving a stunned princess behind.

"How dare you disrespect my elder sister?!!" Aura yelled with killing intent, and added:

"Guards! Teach this urchin a lesson!!!"

The five knights quickly got down their horses and walked towards the still departing Aaron.

"Stop there your man! You’ll have to pay for disrespecting the princess!" The muscular man with goatee beard yelled. Walking towards Aaron.

Aaron stopped, and simply looked at the man over his shoulder, a powerful energy wave burst out from him. Throwing the five men 10 meters back.

Aura: "Huh?"

Angela: "...."

Coachman: "....."

"You!" Aura was so angry that her face turned red.

"What?" Aaron asked innocently, and added:

"Do that again, and you’ll be next."

"..." Aura was stunned.

Seeing this, Aaron exhaled and walked away from the place.

Angela stared at his departing figure till he vanished from her sight.

"Why didn’t you do anything, Sister?!" Aura asked in mild confusion.

"That fool humiliated you, and you did nothing... This isn’t you." She added.

"He’s with a sword, but used a... Spell... What do you think about this?" Angela turned to her sister, with a smile on her face.

Aura thought for a moment... Her eyes widened instantly. "A dual-class?!"

"Correct." She walked past her. "Come on." She got inside the carriage.

Aura looked at the direction Aaron took, and turned to the knights who were limping back to their horses.

"You weaklings embarrassed us! I hope it won’t happen again, especially in the academy city."

"It won’t happen again" the man with the goatee beard bowed with a sad expression.

"Humph!"

Aura scoffed, and entered the Carriage.

"To the protectors academy!" She yelled at the coachman.

"Yes, princess." The coachman quickly struck the horses, riding the carriage, while the knights followed behind.

"Captain, who was that kid?" A knight asked.

"I don’t know, but the eldest princess said he’s a dual-class."

"But, why can’t we feel his Sid energy?" Another asked.

"I don’t know, I think Dual-class has the advantage to hide their energy." He muttered with a dark expression.

They were defected by a kid who isn’t even 15, they’ll be a laughingstock if this spread out in the kingdom.

[Protector Academy.]

In a huge office in a high building, an old man with long white hair and beard, in a taoist robe; slowly moved his gaze around the three academy guardians standing in front of him.

"How are the children doing?" He asked.

The first guardian, who was the leader of the core students of the academy stepped forward:

"As for now, the strongest child in the academy is in the saint realm... The training are going smoothly."

The other two guardians’ faces were filled with envy, being the first guardian in the core students section, this human received more resources than the two. From weapons, potions, and even spells and runes books, all high class.

The dean nodded in satisfaction, and turned to the two. "What about you two?"

An elf stepped forward, and bowed. "The strongest child in the inner section is in the Master realm, and she’s a very hardworking student, and always seen cultivating."

"Nice, if she enters the Saint Realm, we’ll promote her to the Core section."

"Thank you, Dean." The elf bowed, and stepped back.

The last, who has the upper body of an eagle, and a lower body of a human, stepped forward;

"What about the outer students?" The dean asked him.

"Well... The strongest is in the Awakened realm, and some are still in the beginner realm."

"Beginner realm?" The Dean slowly stood up.

"It’s understandable with their background, that’s why they are all outer students, no prodigy among them." He sighed deeply, then walked up to the window, staring at the Academy below.

"We all knew the Cursed child entered the Flesh Eaters’ forest, but... That didn’t mean he’s dead... Yesterday, there was a battle in the forest... Monsters fighting against one another."

First guardian: "Why would they do that?"

Second guardian: "Yes Dean, the monsters have been unified for hundreds of years now, why attack each other?"

Third guardian: "...."

"I don’t know the exact reason, but I have a feeling it’s related to the Cursed child..." He looked at them over his shoulder.

"Have any of you heard the rumors about the flags which rose from the sea, one appeared on the north, the second; East, and last; West... Forming a triangle pattern, and do you know the locations these flags appeared on?"

The three shook their heads, utterly perplexed.

"In the Sirens’ island, the merfolks and lastly, the ancient sea folks..."

"These are all powerful figures with enough powers to wipe out some cities!" The third guardian exclaimed.

"Yes." The Dean looked at the children training below him.

"All these have the mark of the Cursed child, he’s preparing for a war, the only unfortunate thing here is; when is he planning on attacking? Is there still time for us?"

The guardians looked at each others, and turned to the Dean.

"Dean, why don’t we hunt monsters, and make the kids absorb their cores, that way, they can all quickly grow stronger... Cultivating is good, but it’s slow." The first suggested.

The Dean thought for a moment, and turned to them: "Tomorrow is the registration day which only happen each month, One of the tasks will be hunting... The higher the monster a student kill, the higher section he’ll get."

"But Dean? Which forest should we send them to?" The elf asked.

"The Flesh Eaters’ forest is too dangerous, so we’ll be going to the Nightmarish forest, the strongest monster there is a Cursed-Demon stage... You guys will be able to handle it... Now dismiss, and prepare for the registration day."

"Yes Dean." The three bowed, and walked out of the office.

The Dean looked down, staring at a young redhead, who was busy attacking the training dull with her wooden sword.

"Even outer students want to be the best, but their background and low talent made them full back from the rest." He muttered to himself.

[Academy City.]

Academy city was a huge city built around the academy, half of the buildings in this city were built for the children’s training, and the other half was their dormitory; those who has powerful backgrounds, like royalty, nobles, and powerful families, has their own building, with an extra for their personal securities...

While those who don’t have all these privilege could only stay in the dormitory.

Aaron and Protean finally arrived at the gate, only to see the princesses’ Carriage driving inside.

"I told you we should fly here, that’ll make us look cool." Protean whispered, a little disappointed seeing the carriage.

"We aren’t here to draw attention." Aaron reminded, and walked towards the gate.

"Why are you here alone, kid?" The guard at the gate asked, observing Aaron, and Protean.

"Only weaklings move around in the protection of their families and guards." Aaron stated, stunning the two guards stationed at the gate.

"I didn’t know you are also coming to the Academy."

Everyone turned their heads to the open gate, seeing princess Angela walking towards them... She spotted Aaron’s figure before their carriage drove inside, so she came out to take a look, but found out he’s the one.

"Why are you here?" Aaron asked.

"Princess." The two human guards, quickly bowed at Angela, who walked past them like they were invisible and stopped in front of Aaron.

"Why are you so cold to me? If it’s about the incident, I’m truly sorry."

Aaron sighed, because Angela was truly sorry about what happened, but still... Why is she trying to be friends with him?

"You might be wondering why I’m interested in you, trying to be your friend."

Aaron looked at her with a slight frown.

"I’m a warrior-class, I can detect what someone is thinking with only their facial expressions."

’Is that even possible?’

Protean asked telepathically.

’It is, because what she said is the truth.’

Aaron replied to him, with a straight face.

"Now you are thinking how this skill is even possible."

Aaron’s frown deepen.

"Ok, ok... Come on in, I’ll show you around." She walked inside, then stopped on track, turning around to face Aaron who stood on his spot.

"Come on, there’s nothing to fear here."

Aaron chuckled inwardly, and walked inside.

"So, you are also here for the registration?" Angela started a conversation.

"Mm." Aaron nodded, and asked: "How will you show me around if you’re new here?"

"Oh, I’m not new here, well... You see... My sister is a Core student in the academy, so I visited her a lot... I’m registering this month because Dad wants me too."

Aaron nodded in mild confusion: "Core students?"

"Yes, I don’t know why you are hiding your true powers... But that won’t help you here, if you are after high resources, you need to show them your powers, and you’ll be placed in the core section... Instead of the outer section."

’Emm... Emily said she’s after the resources, so she’ll lightly be in the core section... I’ll have to show a little of my powers, so I can enter, look for her, confess, and take her back...’ He looked around the calm street.

’I must complete my plan before next week.’
