We meet again

Seyan had stopped near a random corridor to hold her breath. Her large tablet was drenched with moisture from her sweaty palms. She cursed under her breath for being so unfortunate, "Damn it, What a weirdo pervert. So unlucky."

Unknown to Nik, he had already gained a new name, a weirdo pervert. Seyan hoped they won't meet in future however, fate had it in for her. Seyan found herself in a comfortable corner and boringly perusing the internet when she suddenly, landed on some juicy gossip. My fort, she thought grinning from ear to ear.

She read, "The anonymous hot racer, the Dark racer. Having been the best racer in the history of racing, he still kept a low profile. Despite the curiosity of the enormous number of fans he has, they still love him."

Seyan saw a photo of a masked man with red eyes. His raven black hair was a bit messy but it didn't alter his beauty. However, on a closer look, Seyan found him quite familiar but she quickly dismissed the idea. Overall, she had a good impression of him. Seyan lifted her head from the tablet she was holding and gazed into space. A smirk crafted on her dainty-looking face...it only meant one thing, action.

Seyan didn't know the city very well so she had to find an ally and that was going to be an easy job if she doesn't encounter schemers. Having been a socialite in her school, she was quite outspoken and had a multiverse character. Time flew by until Seyan heard the irritating sound of the electric bell. She smoothly stood up and went to her allocated classroom.

Seyan knew the lesson was going to be boring. Entering the classroom, her eyes swept the rows and columns until they landed on a back seat where she could face and peep through the window. Her classroom being a floor high, she could get the perfect view of the bustling city.

A few minutes later, a long white-haired man entered the classroom. His facials were cold as glaciers with a single lensed glass perfectly covering his left eye and were supported by his nose bridge. Dressed in a simple white tuxedo suit matched with a pair of black shoes.

In his hand, he held a large black book as he scanned the class of students before him. None could read nor guess his expressions, he was the perfect definition of a mask. His rakishly handsome features captured the attention of all girls but none dared to openly fawn over him. His expressions were simply too scary.

Gazing at him, Seyan guessed that he was a new teacher as his strange expressions gave him out. After the seemingly eternal silence, he began, "I'm your new Professor, Ark Angel. I'll be taking you through the history of Zenov."

The subject was new to Seyan so she paid attention though not fully. She would occasionally glance through the window to kill time. She tried to understand but she couldn't as the names of the cities kept on being hard. Nonetheless, she believed that if she put her mind to it then it wouldn't be too hard to master them.

Two hours later, the stern classes finally ended. The students felt that they were on an ice edge for the teacher kept it as a business-only profile. The students felt relieved upon the departure of the professor. Seyan thought their reactions were hilarious but she didn't bother with them.

She was thankful that she hadn't so far encountered a bunch of mean blondies like how she would in her previous life. For that reason, she had grown to hate people with blonde hair. They had scheming characters, she thought and sighed.

She headed back to her room where she found Reyo sitting on her bed. She looked bored and lost yet cute. When Reyo heard the clicking sound of the door, she immediately raised her head to have look. Seeing her cute face, eased Seyan's face who immediately rushed and hugged her.

"I'm back my baby doll. Were you so lonely, I'm sorry I wasn't there to accompany you," Seyan said and tightened the embrace.

Though tight, Reyo was happy that she could experience some love from her young miss. She had vague memories of her past and couldn't remember most of her childhood life. At the age of six, Reyo lost her parents and was sent to the city where she was sold in the black market for young slaves. The Slave trade was common in this era despite it being a modern era.

However, slaves had their rights and in case they weren't satisfied with their masters, they would report it to the higher-ups. However, for years this law had been ignored and the slaves were continuously suppressed by the big shots most of the high officials were corrupt and only cared about benefits.

As for Reyo's case, if it wasn't for the Old Master Murin, Seyan's grandfather who took pity on her and took her in, then perhaps she would have been in a horrible place. She was indeed grateful for that and had been loyal to her young mistress for all those years.

The duo shared silent harmony in their embrace and finally, they broke it after they were satisfied. Later in the evening, Seyan took Reyo to the canteen cafeteria for dinner as they had both skipped lunch. Half an hour later of their sumptuous meal, the two happily chatted like siblings which brought quite the envy to the rest.

In a corner of the cafeteria, two boys sat silently munching on their dinner. Suddenly, one of the raised his head and asked the boy next to him, "Is that the girl you talked to for 3.5 minutes long?"

The white-haired boy who had his backside facing the table cranes his neck to look at the girl. His eyes landed on Seyan who was happily ruffling Reyo's hair. She had a beautiful smile that formed crescents beneath her eyes. Despite the distance, Nik got lost in her smile which he found mesmerising.

For a moment he hoped she could just smile like that only for him. His dark past had wiped out all the bliss and he had even forgotten what it felt like to smile. Seyan's smile seemed to send ripples in his heart.

"We meet again, little villain," he murmured with a shadow of a smile that could be seen on his lips.
