President of the Academy

After the dueling lesson, it was time for the other classes.

* Science, language, history, economics, mathematics...*

Everyone's rear end was cramping from sitting, but they tried not to think about it because of their excitement for the last lesson, which was magic.

* Seiron was feeling tired and was thinking about tomorrow's duel.*

"Damn, why are there these boring classes in a magical world? All the stories I've read were about explosions, fights, and fancy parties, but now I'm studying the laws of gravity and the principles of macroeconomics and microeconomics. Oh God, save me from this nonsense and let me go to a world with martial arts clans."

[Hey there, you're not in a novel where you can skip over the parts you don't like, so listen carefully to the lessons. If you don't stay in the academy and get expelled for failing, I'll make sure you live in misery for millions of years, fo fo fo ^o^]

Class time began at eight in the morning. Students spent most of their time on dueling, followed by academic subjects. Each lesson lasted an hour. At one o'clock, it was time for lunch and a break, which lasted an hour and a half. At two-thirty, the last lesson began, which was usually magic and lasted until three-thirty in the afternoon. After that, students went to their rooms. This system takes advantage of the fact that people come here to learn dueling and magic, so they make them the first and last lessons to keep students interested in the other lessons, which were based on understanding and memorization rather than talent. Nobles studied most of these subjects because they had to be the best. The poor didn't care as long as they became famous knights or wealthy wizards, so only a few of them cared about science. But to avoid being expelled, they had to study everything and succeed with a perfect grade, whether in magic, dueling, or other subjects.

"Finally, it's break time!"

Everyone cheered happily.

Sieron headed towards the academy's cafeteria, stood in line, took his food, and sat in an empty seat. As he began to eat, one of the guards approached him.

"Sir, the director wants to see you."

"Yes."

He stopped eating and went to the director's building. The administration building was located a bit far from the student lounge and closer to the classrooms.

Sieron arrived at the administration building. It was a pyramid-shaped building consisting of several floors. The building was covered in reflective glass, a type of glass made with magic and the specific sciences of this world. It blocked the sun from the building in the summer and stored it, and in the winter, it released the stored heat into the building, making it warmer than any other place. The building was blue due to its glass covering.

Sieron entered, following the guard. The place was much warmer than outside, which wasn't very unusual compared to what Sieron had read in stories. Magic engineering was weak in this world, which was considered one of the many worlds he had read about where magic had reached a greater place than science. Sieron had never even heard of things like magical lights and different tools.

Sieron reached the director's room.

Knock knock

"Come in."

"Hello, the young Duke is here."

"Let him in."

Sieron entered and found the old man, who was wearing Shaolin fighters' clothes, sitting at a large desk, writing on paper.

"Hello, Director Frederick, I am Sieron Fad Yosburg, it's an honor to meet you."

"Sit down, Sieron. You're now one of my students, so there's no need to treat me like the nobles. You can leave, guard."

He didn't even look at Sieron but continued flipping through the papers, signing, and writing on them as well.

"..."

"Sieron, do you know why I called you?"

"Because of what happened this morning?"

"Yes, that's the thing. Tell me, how do you want your punishment, expulsion or a fine?"

"..."

"You may not realize what you've done, but I assure you it's a big deal, boy."

"Sir Allison, I didn't do anything wrong. If I had committed a crime, I would be in prison now. What happened this morning was something that should have happened a long time ago, but you overlooked it. In fact, there is no rule in the school's laws that says students should not kill each other. Rather, there is a law, I think it's the tenth or eleventh in the student conduct laws, which states that all students are allowed to do whatever they want outside of class, and I didn't do anything, I was even good to the students."

"Good to the students?!!, You... On your second day at school, you killed seven students from the second grade."

The director was very angry as he threw the pen from his hand and looked at Sieron angrily, but he didn't use his magic against him.

"Sir Frederick, leave these matters alone, this doesn't fool me. You want to know about me, weren't you the one who sent them?!!

Everyone knows that insulting a noble ends in death, but they were bold enough to ask me for money and try to threaten me without feeling fear of death, what does that mean?!!, It means that there is an instigator, and then you talk as if there were no cases of murder that were overlooked in the school?!, Huh... Do you want me to tell you the number of them?!, Tell me, do you want to?"

The director didn't speak but smiled and leaned back in his chair, then smiled.

"Tell me, Director, do you want my family to invest more in the academy? But the problem is that I like to own things, you know it's a habit in the Yosburg blood, so I want you to swear allegiance to me and have the academy directly affiliated with my family, and I will make you one of the members of my family, I will even put you on the family's board of directors, what did you say? Will you leave begging in the Gomez family and come to the Yosburg family?"

"But... the Gomez's daughter will be an empress."

"This villain."

Sieron thought

"Don't worry about him, I won't hold a grudge against you."

"Are you sure about that?!!... I mean, don't worry, but what will the Yosburg family gain from this academy, it's going through a hard time if you want the truth, so... I have to reject your offer, I don't want to make your family suffer in this academy and lose your money."

"Damn, he's cunning, but I'm from the ground."

Sieron smiled and thought

"If you don't want to agree, then I won't pressure you, so, if you'll excuse me, I'll be leaving."

"What..."

The director was stiff because of Sieron's behavior. Usually, he uses this method to appear kind and care a lot about money. It's just a simple trick he uses in front of old people who don't think much, but now he couldn't gain anything.

He originally wanted to use the gang to get to know Sieron, but after their failure, he tried to exploit their death but didn't succeed and instead rejected an opportunity to become part of the Yosburg family.

This was his last year as the school's director, so he wanted to collect a lot of money before his retirement, but he failed now in the biggest deal he could get.

On his way back to the lounge, he found a group of girls gathered, among them were Selena, Aista, and some of the secondary heroines and friends of the heroine and the villain.

Sieron approached them, walking with full confidence.

"Duke Sieron is coming this way, look."

"He's so handsome... ahem ahem. Excuse me."

The girls were impressed by Sieron because he was one of the most prominent young men in the entire academy. Aista felt angry and jealous of the girls' behavior.

"Damn... Teenage girls, they couldn't believe they found a handsome young man, but why is he coming towards us? Is he coming to me?"

At that moment, Sieron arrived. The Giant's skill had slightly altered his appearance, as some changes began to appear in his body and features, making him more beautiful.

"Hello ladies, how are you? May I speak to Miss Gomez alone if you'll allow me."

He said, smiling calmly.

"Me?!"
