5 The Long Forgotten Childhood pt3

On the next day, Alduin submitted his application to the Kuoh Academy under the watchful eye of his mother.

To his dismay and surprise, he was accepted without even looking at his record, just because he had graduated with honors.

There was no going back, and he spent the rest of his vacation continuing to practice the Nirn magic that the Nords and that thorn in the horned helmet, who spat out the Unrelenting Force left and right, used.

Although, Alduin admitted that she could do it quite beautifully at times.

After throwing some mortal chick off a cliff and screaming, then bringing a few more and repeating, trying to figure out which one would fly further - Alduin then began to respect the Dragonborn.

But then he remembered a strange pattern that he had previously not paid attention to, which was observed in such victims - they were all full-breasted blondes.

On 1st April, the Hyodo brothers, older and younger, headed to the Kuoh Academy. Issei was eager to return to what he called a paradise for guys and was almost drooling, describing the virtues of the female students.

"Ah, there are such chicks there, Tatsumi. You will definitely find someone for yourself. The Kuoh Academy was a private girls' school a year ago, but since last year, it has started accepting boys too. It's just a heavenly garden full of girls who don't know men but are just thirsty to find a boyfriend" Issei said dreamily.

"I can see that you've already collected your harem. The Left-Hand-chan and Right-Hand-chan" Alduin quipped, to which Issei replied grumpily

"That was unnecessary."

"Listen, bro, you're not dumber than me. Get into sports, throw away your porn, and stop looking at girls like a hungry hyena. They won't look at you as prey, maybe not right away, but then you'll fix your reputation at the university" Tatsumi interrupted, putting an end to his speech.

"You don't understand the beauty of it. Don't worry, as soon as you step on the Kuoh Academy's territory, you'll understand the meaning of the word 'beauty'" Issei said, looking at his brother like a one-year-old child.

"I get it. You are lost I'm afraid. At least stop describing this cowshed where I have to study for three years. The only thing that makes me go there is the word given by my mother and the threat of being disconnected from the internet" Alduin said, raising his hands in the air.

His brother's obsession with female breasts seemed to be one of the fundamental physical constants. But, unlike Issei, human hormones greatly interfered with him. It was not possible for Alduin to puncture his skin differently from using a compass with three different Tuums to amplify the needle. Saddly, there was no other way to deal with his morning erection.

"Yo, Issei!" two voices interrupted Alduin's angry tirade.

"Oi! Two idiots. What the hell are you doing here?" Alduin asked his brother's friends who had come over.

"T-Tatsumi! What are you doing here?" Matsuda and Motohama asked in unison.

"I'm here to study. Haven't you losers been jailed yet?"

"Issei, what the hell is your younger brother doing here, and in the form of the Academy?!" Matsuda shook Issei, screaming.

"I'm leaving you, bitches. You can continue to enjoy your inferiority together" Alduin waved to the trio and turned towards the school. "Just leave my little brother alone."

Arriving at the school, Alduin quickly looked around and asked the nearest girl for directions to the gymnasium, where the opening ceremony was taking place.

A pretty blond girl with a good figure answered him, but a quick glance at the students showed that the concept of "pretty girl with a good figure" was applicable to almost everyone wearing a skirt.

"Issei is a moron! 'There are only virgin girls who have never seen boys here' - yeah, right. I'd sooner believe in a kingdom of lesbian debauchery than in innocent girls. And knowing him, I wouldn't be surprised if some female club, like kendo or karate, is already after him today. For the love of Kin, why did I have to be punished like this?" Alduin muttered in the Nord language, which for some reason was called German here.

Scanning the crowd of students gathered in the gymnasium for the start of the school year, Alduin suppressed yet another urge to curse loudly and rudely, in Dragon language, with a Shout. The ratio of boys to girls was about one to thirty, and Issei was right about something after all.

This school had human females of all shapes and sizes, from flat dwarfs like the blond girl with the short haircut to a cow with a huge udder and a tail of long black hair.

"Although," thought Alduin, glancing again at the girl with the enormous breasts and long tail, "given her height, body proportions, and the fact that I like black, such an udder is forgivable."

The mentioned girls shuddered and, as if reading his thoughts, gave him a quick glance.

Alduin, on the other hand, smiled back with his trademark grin, reminiscent of a hungry crocodile's snarl as it greeted an antelope at the watering hole.

Soon the students dispersed to their classrooms, where Alduin realized he was in trouble. First, he was the only boy in the class.

Second, the carnivorous looks that most of his new classmates gave him reminded him of his most loyal brothers, who were ready to plunder the next human village.

But meeting the class had its own corrections. Most of the girls, hearing his last name, stopped eyeing him like a cat eyes cream.

Apparently, his older brother's reputation ran several miles ahead of him.

However, that white-haired flat dwarf, whose name was Toujou Koneko, made Alduin feel a familiar but long-forgotten presence.

Looking closely at Koneko, he quietly whispered the words of the Aura Whisper Shout and looked at the girl sitting in front of him again.

A light green aura appeared around the girl in Alduin's eyes, but the color was not uniform. In some places in the girl's aura, a familiar black shade was visible to him. This shade was not dominant in the aura, like a Daedra's, but its presence indicated fairly close interaction with Oblivion's inhabitants.

Looking more closely at the aura, Alduin concluded that the girl was a Daedra worshipper, but she did not go beyond the most elementary rituals; the trace of Daedric presence in her aura was too weak.

During a break, he heard some shouting coming from the street. Looking out the window, he saw his brother with two of his loser friends running away from a group of girls with shinai.

"What a great brother to have!" Alduin muttered, although he was thinking about something completely different.

"Look at them run, in formation, in line. If I were in Issei's place, I'd roar at them with Unrelenting Force. It would make a beautiful picture. Hmm, I wonder if Harmony Kin would work on human females? I could come up with another shout with a similar effect, but you can't beat a classic."

"Hey, Hyodo-kun, are you by any chance..." started a girl, but Alduin cut her off.

"The younger brother of this moron" he said, pointing at Issei, who was already being chased by the girls, who appeared to be members of the kendo club.

"Tatsumi Hyodo" a voice came from the classroom door.

"Sup?" asked Alduin, looking at the person who might need him. It turned out to be a blond girl who had shown him the way to the gym that morning.

"The president of the student council wants to see you" the blond girl said.

Alduin was about to send her to hell just out of habit, but then he remembered his mother's punishment.

As he followed the girl, he mentally went over the reasons for his summons to the student council. He had never been there so quickly before.

"It looks like I've set a new record: it's only been half a day at the new school, and they've already called me to the student council" he thought.

But in the end, the reason was simple to the point of absurdity.

"Miss President, I brought Hyodo Tatsumi" said the blond girl, entering the office with a sign that read "Student Council" gesturing for Alduin to follow her.

"Thank you, Momo, you can go" replied the girl in round glasses who was sitting behind a massive wooden table, on which papers were arranged in perfect order.

"I wonder how her name is properly translated, peach or something else?" thought Alduin, glancing at the blond girl.

There was something in her that reminded him of his classmate who worshipped Daedra.

"You must be the student council president" he said, hearing a quiet cough from the table.

"Hello, Hyodo-san. You're right, I'm Sona Shitori, the president of the student council at Kuoh Academy."

"Pleased to meet you, Shitori-san. Can you tell me why I was summoned to the student council?" he asked, hearing a note of caution in her voice after she had looked him up.

"Nothing serious, Hyodo-san. I just looked into you and, I must admit, your evaluation made me somewhat wary. I wouldn't want you to throw away any of what your previous teachers have written about you. Kuoh Academy is a prestigious educational institution that doesn't tolerate... unsociable elements."

"Did you call me just to warn me about the consequences of my behavior? And maybe even threaten to expel me?" Tatsumi spoke thoughtfully.

"It is not necessary to go to such extremes, Hyodo-san. I checked your records for all the time you were in middle and high school. Although your behavior raises some questions, I hope that the overall trend towards reducing hooliganism will continue. And I hope that you won't follow in the footsteps of your older brother."

"Oh, you can be sure of that, Kaicho. My brother and I have significant differences on key issues. And still, Kaicho, you didn't have to scare anyone with expulsion."

"Do you think I'm scaring anyone?"

"Oh, yes. After all, my brother wasn't expelled. The school has a reputation for being able to straighten out anyone, even a complete idiot. And by expelling someone, the school would admit that not everything is going smoothly in the Danish kingdom. Or rather, in the women's one. Something like that."

"Overconfidence, Hyodo-san, never leads to anything good."

"Overconfidence doesn't hurt when you have something to back it up, Shitori-san."

"I hope you can keep your overconfidence in check, Hyodo-san."

"I'll try, Kaicho. I have my own interests in finishing my studies at the academy and getting my diploma. And the quality of education here has nothing to do with it, even though I want to become a lawyer. Can I go now?"

"I'm not keeping you, Hyodo-san."

"Goodbye, Shitori-san."

After the first-year student closed the door, Sona looked thoughtfully at Tatsumi Hyodo's personal file lying in front of her. When she started looking into him, she expected to find another pervert like his older brother. But what she didn't expect to see was a diploma with honors and a character reference that spoke of Tatsumi's constant hooliganism. He was suspended from classes several times due to his behavior, mostly for fighting, some of which were quite serious.

After reviewing Tatsumi's file, Sona still didn't know how to feel about him. A hooligan who didn't recognize anyone's authority but somehow managed to become a leader in any school. In addition, he had very good grades. When Sona saw them, she couldn't believe her eyes. This newcomer was doing better in school than she was at his age! What an audacious guy!
