1 Leo's escape

*Bam*

A Blonde haired boy slams on the desk. His face is fuming with anger and his lips trembling.

In front of him is a very attractive person. With silver hair and ocean blue eyes. His name is Leo.

Seeing the blonde boy in front of him. Leo stands up from his place and with an angry look in his face. He speaks " What do you want?"

" What do I want? You clearly know what I want." The blonde boy replies in rage. " Look, if it is about sia then I am telling you she was the one who started talking with me. I did nothing and even if I did what is wrong with it." Leo replies in a questioning tone.

" Look he never learns is it." " What an idiot." " He will again be beaten to a pulp today." All the students are gossiping with each other.

The blonde boy abruptly holds Leo by his collar. Making Leo stand on his toes. He catches his hands and gritting his teeth says" Put your hands off me."

" What if I won't? What will you do, you bastard?" The blonde boy replies in an arrogant way. *Smach* Leo punches the blonde guy with all his might. Making him bleed through the corner of his mouth.

" You Motherfucker!" The blonde says as he leaps towards him and tries to punch him. Leo easily evades his lousy punches. One glance and you can tell that the blonde body is not strong physically.

Whilst Leo has quite a firm body.

Leo snorts in laughter when he sees the blonde guy nearly tripping down on the floor unable to punch him. Seeing him mock him the boy trembles in rage. But he knows he can't win against him in terms of physical capabilities.

He grits his teeth and cleching his fist he points with one hand towards Leo and says" Just you wait. As soon as we leave the Academy I will make you regret being born."

Leo leaps forth and grabbing his finger which was pointed towards him. He applies force as if trying to break it. The blonde boy starts yo scream in agony and starts saying" I-I am sorry. Please let me go, you are going to break my finger."

Leo grins and says" Just let me savour this moment till I can. After all, I can't do anything to you later on."

Leo applies more pressure and the blonde starts to howl in agony. *Smach* Leo kicks the blonde sending him flying to the wall. Leo smiles in satisfaction seeing the blonde on the ground.

He turns around and sits on his place. He makes it seem like as if nothing ever happened. But deep inside he thinks about what that blonde will do today and smiles bitterly.

After a while, the teaches enters the class. The blonde boy has already tended his wounds and is sitting a few desks forward to Leo.

In this academy, The places are decided by the ranks of the students. The lower the rank the backwards he sits and vice versa.

As of Leo is the lowest ranking student of this class he is on the far behind the corner alongside with two other students.

In this world of magic, everything is based on one's ability; The strongest rules while the weak are ruled.

Leo's past-parents were very weak in magic ultimately making Leo weak too. But he never regretted being born their son as his childhood was the only best memories he has.

His father was a low-grade warrior while his mother was a housewife. They lived quite a normal life until one day they received news saying his father abandoned his teammates during a mission.

Which was a non-forgivable act according to law and nonetheless was executed hearing the news his poor mother was not able to accept the fact and she strongly opposed it in the court of Justice.

But one person can't change anything and Leo was still considered a minor. Leo was of 11 by then.

His mother did not give up and kept on fighting against it using all their leftover savings for Leo's future. At last, his mother lost the case and gave up on her life along with his father on the same day he was executed.

Leo was left all alone. He only had a letter left by his mother in which she had justified why she believed his father was innocent.

His mother was being pursued by a person while she was reading. But she never liked him and kept on rejecting him.

The person never gave up and kept on pursuing her until one day she was confessed by another boy who she liked. And without hesitation she accepted.

But the pursuer kept on creating problems for them. Ignoring everything he did they soon completed their study and after a short while married each other.

They were living happily along with their child until the pursuer once again showed up. He kept on creating a problem for his father during work and also kept coming to their home. And he also kept on threatening her that he would kill her husband.

So, from everything he did, she believed that Leo's father was framed by that person. And at last, she said that if she was to keep on living she was sure that he would make their life hell.

So, she committed suicide as a way to prevent it and with her dead, he would do nothing to Leo. She had written those words on the piece of paper.

Leo knew life was never easy. He knew what it meant to keep on living. And to not let his mother's sacrifice in vain he determined to continue living till he can. He also decided to get his revenge when he gets stronger but it seems pretty distant due to his powers.

Classes are finally over. The two boys who are also in the last desk as he glanced at him when their eyes met his. They couldn't help but smile bitterly thinking what awaited him outside.

The blonde boy leapt towards the door and turning back once he made a gesture of killing with his hand.

Leo sighed and kind of regretted what he did. But again, he would be beaten even if he did not so what was the problem. He took a deep breath and walked out of the room.

And slowly, he went downstairs and finally out of the main building. He kept walking forward towards the gate with a straight face.

Students from his class were gossiping about him saying what bad luck and other things.

Ignoring all their words Leo kept on walking forward. Towards the gate. He knew once he steps outside he will be welcomed by a huge surprise.

He clenched his fists and just as he approached the gate he spoke out loud" Sia, hurry up or we will miss our favourite show." He said with a slight smile on his face.

Three students were waiting near the gate. One had stone-like fists, another had a small fireball floating on his hands and one was standing without doing anything as if he was waiting to see Leo get attacked by those two.

But just as he heard Leo's voice. His body stiffened and he gestured the other two to fall back. Seeing his gesture both of them dissipated their powers.

Leo continued walking and just as he put his leg out of the gate. He turned back and said" Hey sia, what are you doing standing still? Hurry up! We will miss our show."

The gate was a huge one and in the middle, there was a small one. The large one was closed while the smaller one was open. So, they couldn't see behind Leo.

Leo looked at the blonde guy and turned back his head he spoke:" Sia look who is waiting for you." Hearing his words the blonde guy immediately turned back and started sprinting seeing the blonde guy run others two followed.

Leo kept on watching them until they were completely out of vision behind the huge buildings just outside the gate.

He gave a sigh of relief and all of a sudden started sprinting at full speed.

He ran at a very high speed using his little what mana to produce a wind gale behind him which pushed him forward.

Just as he crossed the building from where the blonde guy disappeared, he turned back his head and saw a guy pointing towards him.

Immediately realizing he was the guy with the blonde hair. Without even batting an eye, he turned his head around and started sprinting again.

Seeing him run the blonde guy too used a wind gale to do the same. He was faster than Leo as he had a stronger aptitude for magic.

His face was twitching with anger but Leo wasn't able to see it.

Leo was lost in his own thoughts' Come on, Come on. Just a little. Just a little.' as he was about to approach his house just as the blonde was about to approach him.

There was only a few meters gap between the two and the other two guy with blonde were a bit far behind.

As they were running on the road everyone was gazing them with curious eyes but none of them tried to stop them.

Leo was aware of those gazes. Gazes filled with pity. Because it was not the first time this was happening he always had to go through this almost every day.

But ignoring everyone he kept on running.

Seeing Leo approaching his house. The blonde guy cast a spell but as he was a low levelled caster he took quite a long time to double cast which somehow decreased his speed.

Just as he finished casting his spell, a small ball of fire appeared in his palm. A grin appeared in his face and without any hesitation, he shot the fireball towards Leo's way.

Unaware of the attack, Leo was fully immersed in the thought of reaching home and losing those bastards.

* Baam* All of a sudden the place where the fireball landed exploded resulting in a small explosion. But it was quite dangerous.

Leo turned his head behind towards the blonde and saw a grin on his face. He was about to fall down but after seeing every ounce of energy from his body he maintained his balance and finally reached the house.

He hurriedly stormed inside his house. His house was quite small. Although it wasn't old it wasn't new either. His house was a two-storied building, with white colour all over it. It was a very common type of house in his country.

Just as the blonde saw Leo entering his house. He clenched his fists tightly and cursing Leo one last time he turned around and walked back along with his two partners.

Leo gritted his teeth tightly and clenching his fists. He thought' What the fuck is up with this world? Only stronger people are the one who has rights are weaker people animals to them. Is it a sin to be weak? If so then- Huh! What is happening..' Just as he was thinking those words. He collapsed on the floor near the entrance.

His internal organs were shaken by the explosion. The explosion happened directly on his body which caused it to happen.

His coat and shirt both of them had a huge hole on the back. And a scar was formed on the point of contact of the explosion.

Leo is lying down on the floor lifelessly while inside his mind he is holding quite a fun conversation with someone.
