Your Not So Ordinary Villain

Chapter 107 Impending Visit

?Ezio and the other students noticed that the staff of the academy suddenly became busy. They were busy preparing one of the halls which made the students curious. Just as they were about to ask, one of the passersby told them that an important visitor will be coming that afternoon so they needed to prepare.

The students started to talk amongst themselves and tried to guess who will be coming. The only people that the academy treat with care like this were those from the nobility but they couldn't think of anyone who would visit the academy.

Ezio watched from a distance as the staff and the students clamor to fix the room and to know who would visit. He remembered the master's words but he immediately shook his head. It was impossible because as far as he knew, the master was not part of any noble houses in the kingdom.

Since he had nothing to do with what was happening, he left to practice once again. He needed to calm himself once the master comes to visit him. He was excited and expectant because there was a chance that the master would help him escape from the tower and that academy.

While practicing his magic, he could feel several pairs of eyes that were looking at him. He gritted his teeth and endured for a while before he finally lost his cool and interrupted his own magic. Then he disappeared from where he was standing and appeared behind one of the people watching him.

"It's really annoying when all of my actions are being watched," he whispered and before the man could react, he was already holding the other's arm and pressed it behind his back before pushing him, face first, on the ground.

The man grunted as his body hit the stone ground and the pain in his arm made him whimper. Ezio didn't let him go even though the man was clearly in pain, instead he tightened his grip and pushed down the arm that he was restraining.

The man tried to topple Ezio who was pinning him down and tried to use his free arm but the man was not budging. Ezio pulled the man up then slammed him again on the ground. A shout of pain came from the man which alerted the others.

They appeared from where they were hiding and went to try and stop Ezio from further hurting the man. "Please stop master Ezio or you will kill the man." One of them went to grab Ezio's shoulder but he was thrown back by a force that was covering Ezio.

"If you don't want to get hurt, next time stay away from me and don't let me ever catch you lurking in the shadows and watching my every move." He let go of the man and stood up while patting the dirt that got to his clothes. "Don't ever show your shadows here again." He warned before he left.

He knew that even though he warned them they wouldn't leave him alone because of those old men in the tower. He couldn't wait for the master to come and visit him then he would ask the master to take him away.

The men who were sent to watch Ezio looked at his disappearing back and sighed. The captain looked at the man who was holding his dislocated shoulder and shook his head. He thought that the job that was given to them would be easy but it was way more difficult than the other jobs they have done.

They were tasked to watch the child and report back to the tower everything he did but it was difficult for them to follow him wherever he went because sometimes he would suddenly disappear and reappear in a different location. They were doing their best but the child was wary of them. Now he was worrying about what they should report back.

Linius received a response from the headmaster and Cygnus was satisfied with it. Although he hated protocols and formalities, he was still pleased that the response immediately came.

"Now that we have confirmation, we must prepare. You should bring some gifts with you for that cousin and for those who manage that place." Cygnus clapped his hands and he looked excited while directing those words towards Linius.

"Don't worry, all of those are already prepared. Are you really that pleased to be able to see Ezio?" Linius couldn't help but ask. Aside from the times where he became excited, well that is when he was wreaking havoc and killing, this was the only time that he had that expression regarding a person.

"Well, of course because I just received news from Ari that he managed to beat up one of those so-called elite spies from the tower. What a pity that I am not there to witness the spectacle." He laughed as he started to pace inside the room.

The others remained silent and did not comment on the master's words. Even Astrophos was not refuting his words. Cygnus appreciated the silence as he pondered on some other matters they would need.

"Who is Ari?" the major suddenly asked because it was the first time that he would be hearing that name.

Cygnus stopped pacing and looked at the major, "Are you sure that you are ready to meet her?" There was again a glint in his eyes that let them know if the master was going to do something crazy once again.

Linius immediately shook his head. "No never mind. The last time I heard those words I almost died because I got provoked by you." The major did not want to remember the past and just continued with the present.

"You're really no fun major." Cygnus sat on the window sill then leaned on the side. "You'll meet Ari soon so you don't have to ask."

While looking at the man, Linius had this sudden thought that the master seemed to have a noble birth. His actions, his demeanor and even the way he spoke all indicate that he might be a noble too.

"Don't go too far and guess who I am major or you'll regret it for the rest of your life." Cygnus's expression turned cold when the major's thoughts came across him. "Now, why don't we focus on the visit that we will be doing this afternoon?" He slightly tilted his head to the side then gave them a seemingly warm smile.

Sensing that the master's mood was not that good, Mr. C bowed and left the room followed by Nina and Astrophos. Linius gave him one last look before he left. When they were all gone, a man emerged from the dark once again and looked towards the closed door.

"I don't really understand why you are playing with those humans." The man sat on the vacant chair and spread both of his arms on the seats back. He was bored inside the dimension so he decided to come out and play.

"It's been my hobby and can you blame me? They are fun to play with." Cygnus chuckled at the dragon's words. He was older than him by a few hundred years and yet he was still acting like a child.

"Don't look at me like that, I already know what you are thinking, that I am childish but who cares, now that you gave me permission to leave that dimension then I believe that you have a greater plan for this place." The dragon who took on his human form shared his thoughts. He had been traveling with them ever since he appeared at the town of Alfonso.

"Yes, and in order to do that, I'll be needing your help but don't worry because I have prepared an army just for you. And when that time comes, I want you to lead them."
