The Academy(Part 3)

After class was finished Shu headed out for the cafeteria along with Ean who guided him there

"So, this cafeteria place, what is it for?"

Shu questioned while Ean simply smiled

"Well, it's a place where you can eat, and let me tell you since our academy has one of the biggest budgets in the kingdom, we get amazing food!"

Ean replied with a gigantic grin causing Shu's eyes to widen as he slowly placed his hands over Ean's shoulders

"Ean"

Shu whispered with a serious tone as sweat began to fall from Ean's face

"Y-yes?"

Ean replied as Shu looked into his eyes

"You just became my best friend!"

Shu exclaimed with a smile on his face as Ean simply stared at him causing Shu to do the same, looking at each other with serious faces before they both bursted out laughing

"Come on let's get us some food!"

Shu yelled while laying his arm over Ean's shoulder as Ean did the same

"You gotta eat the Chicken meat we have, it's simply exquisite"

Ean added to Shu's loud statement as they began to walk opening the cafeteria door with a combined kick laughing as they did so to then proceed and get themselves some food before heading to a table all the while being watched by everyone that was eating, in particular, a cyan hair-colored boy

"It already smells amazing!"

Shu yelled as he placed his food down on the table while Ean did the same, Shu, in particular, got quite a lot of food, enough to feed nine people

"Hey fat ass"

A black-haired boy exclaimed while tapping Shu's shoulder as Ean's eyes went blank in fear of the boy standing next to Shu

"Fat ass? He must be talking about you Ean"

Shu said while shoving a piece of chicken into his mouth as a vein popped out of the black-haired boy's forehead

"I'm not talking to him I'm talking to you"

The boy said with an angered tone before pulling Shu by his shirt forcing him out of the table

"Oi"

Shu whispered with an irritated tone as he faced down, his white hair hovering over his eyes as the boy simply stared him down

"Watch your tone, you peasant"

The boy replied while pushing Shu away as the people around them began to laugh

"What's a peasant doing in an Academy of Nobles, hmm?"

The boy questioned while moving his face closer to Shu's face

"Back off, I'm trying to eat"

Shu replied as Ean simply watched from the sidelines with a scared expression, not wanting to get in any trouble

"What did I say about that tone, huh!? I'd allow you to talk to me that way if you were a noble, but you're not"

The boy explained the reason behind his attitude as Shu simply looked up at him with an irritated expression

"How dare you stare me at like that!"

The boy exclaimed before attempting to punch Shu, successfully doing so as Shu didn't even try to dodge the attack

"I'm trying to eat so..."

Shu quickly docked down stretching his arm backward before swinging his arm towards the boy's stomach punching him right on the left side of his ribs, making the boy fly crashing against a wall, cracking it in the process

"Back off!!"

Shu yelled but before he could do anything else he felt a hand on his right shoulder

"Listen, we're all trying to eat here, I understand that you're angry at his attitude but if you were this strong from the beginning then you could have taken the punches, no?"

Said a voice as Shu slowly turned around getting a look at the person, it was the same Cyan colored hair boy who stared at him and Ean before

"You want some too, huh!?"

Shu questioned before swinging at the boy's face, but all of a sudden blood began to fall from Shu's nose as he took a step back

"Oh no, why did he have to run into him of all people.."

Ean whispered as he watched from the sidelines pulling his own hair in irritation and fear for his newly found friend

"Why did he have to meet Louis...he's an even harder opponent than Arthur"

Ean said to himself before turning his face away not wanting to see what was about to happen

"You made me bleed. That's interesting, I've never encountered anyone who has made me bleed since I left the mountain, so beating you up will feel most satisfying"

Shu whispered as he slowly turned to look at the boy now known as Louis with a malevolent smile on his now scary looking face, but before he could even do anything, a man stood in between the two boys

"Last time I stopped your kick and the shockwave destroyed half of the academy, even if we can repair it at a phenomenal speed, I don't want that to happen again, so please, refrain from fighting"

Was what both Shu and Louis heard as they looked up at the man. It was the same tall Red-haired man who stopped Shu's kick when he was fighting Arthur

"And, for those wondering what a commoner is doing here. Well, I was the one who wanted him here"

Said the man while all the students gasped in surprise while Louis simply raised his right eyebrow slightly not surprised in the slightest

"Wait, vice-principal Reimen?"

Said a girl in the crowd while another boy added to her statement

"Why would vice-principal Reimen recommend a commoner? That doesn't make any sense, I bet he probably beat Arthur by cheating"

"Yeah!"

Another boy added as every student in the cafeteria began to agree, making Reimen sigh as a red aura began to spew from his body before stomping his right leg against the ground causing a loud 'boom' to be heard, shutting every student in the cafeteria up

"Shu is quite the capable fighter, not to mention he was able to take out or strongest student, Arthur. Let me remind you all of something, this academy isn't to show off to your friends, this academy was built so that we can successfully obtain the strongest military force in the world. Am I clear!?"

Yelled Reimen, loud enough for every student in the cafeteria to hear as they all yelled in response to his statement , with the exception of Shu, 'Sir Yes Sir!'

"Good. I'll now take my leave and remember, I'll know when something like this happens, so please avoid any fights in the cafeteria or in any place that isn't the Arena"

Said Reimen before disappearing in a blur, leaving every student in the cafeteria quiet

"Well, sorry to bother you"

Said Louis before beginning to walk away from Shu waving his hand as he did so

"Yeah, I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have reacted like that, I was a bit irritated at the guy's attitude from before"

Shu replied as Louis smiled to himself walking out of the cafeteria with a serious look

"See you in The Tournament, Shu Hellgard"
