59 Dean Maynard

"Mr. Dean, a new Magsinghay entered the school. I wonder if you know him."

"Hmm." The man on the other side paused. "What's the name?"

"Matthias Magsinghay, sir."

The man went silent. He then said, "Yes, I do know him. Don't worry, I'll handle all matters regarding him."

"Affirmative, sir." She nodded and ended the call.

Inside the Dean's room, a man who has an aura of a leader was seated at the table. His back was facing the table while he was looking at the University buildings behind the window.

He stood up and picked up a rock glass cup and grabbed a tong and picked ice cubes and put them inside the cup. He then proceeded to grab a whiskey and poured some in the glass.

He placed the whiskey bottle down and picked up the glass. He spun the glass cup with class and took a sip of the whiskey.

He looked below and saw Matthias wearing a blue sweatshirt with his big backpack behind him. Matthias saw Key and Jeremy and catched up to them.

He then smiled and said, "Aisha, your son is already here. I shall take the responsibility of protecting him on behalf of his father."

He then returned to his seat and continued his work.

Below, Matthias and his two friends walked towards the Humanities Building and entered. They ascended to the third floor where their room is; Room 301.

It was only five minutes before class started when they arrived. The room is enough for seventy students inside. Currently, There are fifteen students inside. When they saw the Key and Jeremy, they slightly nodded as greetings. Then, they saw Matthias. As Key was always with him and isn't really that observant, he didn't notice anything, and Jeremy knew that Matthias was a god so any physical change would be normal to him.

But for the others, it was as if they saw the most handsome person alive. With Matthias' refined look, sharp eyes, elegant nose, long eyelashes, and the hair that stays combed back even though there's no wax, a lot of girls fell in love with him.

The boys were amazed by his looks and felt jealous.

One of the braver girls walked forward and asked flirtingly, "Who are you?"

"Oh, hello. I'm Matthias." Matthias slightly nodded in response with indifferent eyes. Different from those that he knows and judged as good, he will be indifferent, cold, or just wouldn't look at those that he doesn't know and he judged as too bad.

Met with his indifferent eyes, the girl shuddered. She left hurriedly and sat back on her chair. When the others saw what he did, their evaluation of him went down.

"Who's he? Even if he's handsome, he doesn't have any right to be indifferent?"

"Pitiful Ellise." 

"Matthias, I think that indifference wouldn't be okay here." Key whispered.

"Why? I would rather be cold than to be pestered by everyone that I don't even know." He replied.

"You've really changed, Matthias." Key shook his head helplessly.

Matthias then laughed while they sat in the back of the classroom, "Compared to you that changed from becoming a cheery and naive young man to a mature and responsible man, I'd say the change that I had was pretty weak." 

"Hey. Try living a 255 million year old life in a dream while being able to remember everything! See if you don't change this much." Key muttered. 

Matthias and Jeremy heard that with their enhanced senses and chuckled beneath their breath. 

Matthias placed his bag below his desk and leaned to sleep. Suddenly, he remembered something. "Sana!"

"Wish/Hope what?" Key tilted his head in confusion (A/N: Sana is Hope in Filipino but could also be used when wishing.)

Jeremy also reacted, "Yeah! Go!"

Matthias stood abruptly and ran outside. When he reached a secluded corner, he immediately shut down all CCTVs that might catch him and entered his galaxy. He looked for Earth but found out that it has changed very much. He looked for Sana's spirit mark and pinpointed her to be in Alphan.

He rushed there and arrived at a lonely peak in the middle of the ocean. He saw her living silently while waiting for something.

He went down and said apologetically, "Sorry if I'm late, Sana."

Sana woke up from her stupor and stood up hurriedly, "Greetings, Lord." She bowed.

"What happened? Why did you leave Earth?" He asked.

She went silent, and said, "Time has passed, as it usually does. So I went here and cultivated"

"Hmm, I see. You're already at the Chaos Saint Rank. Very fast cultivation, I must say." He nodded in satisfaction, "Now, shall we see your master?"

Sana's eyes sparked, "Yes, Lord."

They then flew and left his Domain. He changed Sana's appearance into her 16-year old form. They went to Miss Federa to also enroll her.

"I have to ask someone if you're going to do that." She responded.

"Who?" He asked.

"Dean Maynard." She replied.

"Wait." Matthias suddenly thought of something, "Is Dean Maynard's surname Capiso?" He asked.

"Yes." She nodded.

"Oh." Matthias gasped and chuckled, "Can I speak to Dean Maynard myself?" 

"Sure. I'll call him." She dialed on the telephone. "Dean, Mr. Manresa wants to talk to you personally. Shall I send him to you?"

"Okay." She nodded and ended the call.

"Follow me."

They left the room and entered the elevator. They ascended to the highest floor, the 20th floor. 

The elevator door opened and they arrived in the office itself. It was very wide. The chair was facing the window.

"It is nice to meet you again, Uncle Maynard." Matthias smiled.

The chair slowly turned and showed a very handsome man wearing formal attire. "It's good to see you again, Little Nephew."

Matthias smiled and walked to him. He hugged him with Maynard hugging him back.

They ended the hug and Maynard faced Miss Federa, "Anisa, you could leave us now."

Miss Federa nodded and entered the elevator and went down. 

Matthias and Maynard talked a lot, reminiscing about their past.
