THE NAME MERLIN WATSSPED
The practical class incident that week was very hard for him. But now his peaceful life was back on its path or so he was thinking. The next week, he got called by the Headmaster of the school through the moderate magic class president Sunao Sakurako.
"Hello, Mr. Kagen Starlezia,”
“You can take your leave now Mrs. Sunao” Principal said with his glasses down.
Kagen greeted him with just a simple "Hello"
"I think you already got the idea that I am the principal of the school”
“And I need a little help from you."
“……”Kagen stood there for a certain time in the confusion what he just stated.
"Oh... Sorry sir but I think you have mischosen the person” Kagen replied.
"You are Kagen Starlezia right and the one who destroyed the magic ball, am I right mister?"
Kagen thought ‘Is he going to make me pay for the magic ball? I don't even know how much it cost. Why always problem keeps poking me? I will say bravely sorry but I didn't break that deliberately, it's just an accident.’
And here he went
“Noo...-" as principle started to gaze strongly at Kagen he changed his answer to
"Yeah I mean I don't know that” Kagen nervously tilted down his head.
He knew the fact that he screwed up. He just accepted the sin that he didn't even do. And he thought ’Ohh... I can see my soul in front of me- wait what is this ohm... I was just hallucinating. Relief, wait it's not time for unfunny jokes.’
"I want you to join the moderate magic class, and I think you are aware of the magic upgrading system" the principal replied.
The magic upgrading system is the shittiest side of this school. Two fighters will fight an official match under the surveillance of one of the teachers and the one who won the match, points will be added to their teacher certification. But it needs the scholarship approval of Principle.
After heard him Kagen thought ’If he said now that to me it means I already recommended and approved. But one more question in mind who recommended me? Only teachers can recommend scholarships. It seems off to me. Nothing to think just say no and end this job.’
Kagen was about to decline the matter but then suddenly
"There is no decline for this, if you decline you will have to be expelled from this school" Principle replied with an evil smile.
"Is it a trait or something?"
"Mr. Kagen does a trait look like this to you? Even if it is a trait you don’t have choice to choose you do it or not, I am the principle of the school ,I will decide what is going to happen to my students, and I strongly believe that you don’t want your peaceful life to be end like that right?" the principal replied with a smirk on his face.
With a surprise and feared emotion Kagen thought ‘How does he know?’
"Surprised? I have been a principal here for thirty years now. I can predict a student just by looking at his moves" the Principal replied.
‘I don't think he can read my thoughts but read my moves how foolish. Is this for real? It is just like he can see through me. Just who is this damn Headmaster is?’
‘But I can't do anything regarding this matter. It's just like if I move forward I will fall in the sea and if I step back I will fall on lava.’
He had no choice to decline that offer. That time he realized one thing this principle wasn’t a person to ignore and he wasn’t a normal teacher and person.
"Uhhmm... Sir Can you please kindly tell me why moderate class?”
“Why not the royal class?”
“I mean why I wasn’t selected for royal class if this scholarship is happening"
After this principle got silent for a moment.
Kagen thought ‘ So he took the bait now tell me old man what is the purpose of this offer, You can see through my bullshit I will make you show yourself in front of me. Now show me’
“To the royal class scholarship you have to have something blood-related to royal families.”
“ and I am afraid you are not and apart from this I heard that you had a little fight with a royal class student named Tristan, Don't worries I don't assume you for anything.”
“You didn't do anything wrong. As a Principle I always has some brief notification of what is occurring in school." the principal replied with a cheerful look on his face.
"But the match winner wasn't me, she was Sunao" Kagen replied.
Kagen thought maybe he was mistaking him for the winner and offered the scholarship.
"I already know that, you don't have to tell me and I remind you of something another time I can predict a student's move. Besides this teachers here are more capable than you think. You can't just hide."
Kagen thought ‘Capable you say? From the start I don't give a damn about others, now I can't ignore teachers and this Principle.’
"Ok sir I accepted this offer but how much is the time limit for this scholarship?"
"It will valid till your 1st year's end and it will only take to win ten official battles"
Kagen thought ‘Crap now it is April and I only have five months on my sleeves to complete this task before being promoted to second year.’
"Can I ask one more question sir, what is your name sir?"Kagen asked.
"I assume that I don't give my name to others and I also did nothing great to remember my name. Apart from this try to keep your grades balanced "the principal replied while heading toward the window.
Kagen thought ‘Not to give your name huh? I think I heard this sentence somewhere. How nostalgic. This principal teased me for the cross question I asked. Just who are you? Magic school's chief editor/Principal of Zardia school of Magic.’
"Allow me to return to the classroom if everything is sorted out, Then I shall take my leave “Kagen said this with an angry but compressed voice and left the room at once.
“Huh, that hazardous principal. Traiting his student is a crime... but still I have to do this, only five months...”
Kagen thought he won from him.but his disillusion got cleared up very soon.
"I want to give you a scholarship for royal class but even as a principal I have to follow some traditions made by school from history.”“What will happen?”
"For now let's head back to class"
After classes were over he went to the library and did some research about the principle from the record and Bingo he got it.
He was once the leader of the Great "Celestial Age" and tamer of the Scorpio sign.
"Celestial Age" is considered to be the most powerful warriors of every century of the Kwasiki continent.
Celestial Age is consisting of twelve members. The twelve members of this committee tame the twelve powerful divine celestial being such as Scorpio, Cancer, Virgo, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Gemini, Libra, Pisces, Taurus, Aries, and Leo. Kwasiki is the continent that is present on the path of the Celestial Devine Dimension. So the celestial being decides their suitable vessel and in exchange, they help their user to fight with their divine power.
After one celestial power user died or retired they were replaced by another user but still old users can access one percent of their power.
This is a costume of this country that carries out for hundreds of years. But recently seven Celestial users have gone missing from twelve users presently. Only five users left.
But still, the Principle was someone who Kagen didn't want to make an enemy of his for now.
His Name was Great sage Merlin Watssped.
He thought for now, he will make a plan for the whole scholarship part and achieve a peaceful life.
How much longer will he have to wait for my beloved stable peaceful life?
