The Mech Lord

Chapter 41 - 40: Amelia In Trouble

The matches in the Colosseum continued and Leo clearly lost the track of his time in excitement. Mechs were always his weakness and it still haven't changed.

Not to mention, Yuji who preferred himself to be called Doc was a Mecha enthusiast as well and the two automatically hit it off.

Even though almost everyone wanted to be a Mech Knight here, all this people still didn't have the ability to call themselves a true Mecha enthusiast in front of Leo and Doc, the two were really crazy about it. And for them, just piloting a Mech wasn't enough but knowing each and everything about it was.

"Hell, yeah! That's how you do it!" Doc cheered when both of the Mech on the field lost their weapon and it ended up turning into a fist fight.

The fight continued for a while before the winner was declared and the mock battle session for today was finally over.

The students in the audience seat finally began to leave and it was only then that Leo realize that he had lost the track of time. He immediately looked at his smart link and his face twitched.

Two hours…

He missed two classes!

'Sh*t!'

Leo really wanted to cry, nothing was going his way today. He was really having it for worse honestly.

"Well, then I will be going, Leo. See you around.." Doc rose up from his seat and waved his hand before leaving.

….

Leo got out of the Colosseum and went around searching for his next class. There was break time now but he already had more than enough of a break and it was best if he stayed in the class and made sure he didn't miss the next one for any reason.

But as soon as he reached the place, he saw the guy whom he had kicked in the face earlier with a bunch of other people. He seemed to be standing in front of the class waiting for someone. There was still the mark of shoe on his face and his face had really turned ugly. Leo could tell one thing for sure if he was caught then it would really be over for him.

In the end, he quietly sneaked away.

'What kind of life is this? Ain't I the son of Edgar Silver? People dare to insult as well as seek revenge on me?' Leo really was speechless. If it was Earth, he was sure that none of the guys would have even dared to look him in the eye.

Hell, he was supposed to be an Aristocrat!

Anyway, one thing was for sure, he wasn't going back to that place to get beaten up. He would rather have Aaron deal with it. He tried to message him for help but then realized that he never ever asked for anyone's contact information.

"What are you doing around here?" A voice entered Leo's ear and he turned around to see a middle aged man standing behind him. He had a scar on his face which ran down on his eye and made him looked kind of menacing. The man had light beard mustache with an olive skin tone while his black untied hairs ran down the shoulders.

He was wearing a strange samurai like gown that Leo had seen in movies back on earth and had an overcoat on his shoulder. The person was way taller then Leo almost rivaling Edgar in terms of height and Leo had to raise his head in order to look him in the face.

"This area is off limits don't you know it," The person frowned and Leo immediately realize that he had arrived at unknown place while running away from that guy earlier.

"Uh, I am sorry." He immediately apologized to the person and turned around to leave.

"Where do you think you are going, I am not done yet!" The man didn't seem on letting Leo go this easily and reached out to grab his shoulder.

"Aaahh!!!" A scream escaped Leo's mouth as the man's palm grabbed at the severed section of his arm.

Let's be honest, the person's grip was too strong for Leo's wound and the pain send him down on his knees. It really hurt like hell and was a terrible thing to experience.

The person was taken back in surprise initially but then he frowned and took Leo's jacket off to see that the kid was missing his arm.

"You kidding me?" He shook his head. A person with a missing arm in the Academy like this? This had to be a joke.

How could a person like this become a soldier? This was literally limiting one's potential.

Not to mention, a severed arm could be connected if immediately brought into and treated. Just what kind of situation would have led his arm to be severed like this and even prevented him from reconnecting it.

Seeing that Leo was showing no signs of getting up, the man grabbed his collar and picked him up before taking him along with him.

….

On the other side…

Year 1D of MTP Class

It was the break right time and the students were clearly gathering around in their own groups having fun.

Amelia similarly was among her group of friends when one of the guy suddenly spoke, "Hey Amelia, isn't this your loser brother?"

Amelia frowned as the guy suddenly sent a projection screen out of his smart link and it showed the incident from before when Leo had kicked the guy in the face.

"What happened to him? He is missing an arm?" One of the girl asked.

"That still doesn't surprise me, but the fact that he was running away from a fight really does…" Another one chimed in.

"Did he hit his head? Why does he seem to be behaving like that?"

"Wasn't he weird to begin with? What are you surprised about?"

"You are caring for that? Isn't he in big trouble for kicking a guy outside the fighting arena."

"I can't believe Mr. Ideal would break the rules someday." The guy who had started the conversation shook his head and laughed.

"What ideal? He is just a loser." Another guy shook his head.

"I am curious as to what happened to him though."

"Why don't you just ask Amellia?" The guy said with a laugh before turning his head towards her seat only to find her missing.

"Where did she go?"

….

'Oh my god! I am dead!' Amelia screamed inwardly as she hurried towards Aiden's classroom.

Now that he had caused some trouble, it was very likely to reach her mother's ears. If her mother found out that she hadn't done her job, Amelia would be done for.

'Why in hell did that idiot do that? I thought he was the enforcer of non-violence.' She really didn't know what was going through his head at all.

As soon as she reached the classroom, she looked around but didn't manage to find Aiden anywhere. In the end, she looked around for someone familiar whom she would be able to ask something.

…

"Isn't that Amelia?" Serina said as she looking at Amelia waving her at them.

"Yeah, its her." Becky nodded.

The two of them had just returned to the classroom as the break was about to end.

"Let's go, she might know where he had been missing since the first class," Becky said with a slight glow in her eyes and the two walked out of their seat towards Amelia.

Today was full of shock, Aiden was first kicked out of the class, he then bunked the next classes and kicked some guy in the face. It seemed he was on a mission to change his image and rebelling against his past self.

And this had clearly left a lot of people in confusion including Becky and Serina as well.

When Becky reached the door, she smiled at Amelia and asked, "It's been a while Amy, how are you?"

"I am fine, Princess," Amelia replied with a smile before asking her and Serina the same.

"Umn..I am looking for the lose- brother, have you seen Aiden around?" She finally asked them hiding the nervousness on her face.

"We were about to ask you the same? He has been missing since he was kicked out of the first class," Serina replied while Becky only stood there with a concerned face.

Amelia's eyes dilated when she heard that Aiden had been kicked out of the class. This had to be a joke, who would have thought she would hear this someday.

But that wasn't the problem now…

"Why was he kicked out?" She asked Serina while sweating. She knew she was in trouble here.

"He couldn't answer the question." Serina awkwardly replied. It felt like snitching to her for some reason.

"Isn't that obvious? He lost his memory, how in hell is he supposed to answer questions when he don't even remember anything? Isn't the Instructor bullying him?" Amelia couldn't help but frown after hearing that.

"Lost his memory?" Both Serina and Becky simultaneously spoke in confusion.

Amelia looked at the two and her eyes pupils enlarged, "Wait, don't tell me he didn't inform anyone about it?"
