Chapter - 74 [ Apprenticeship! ]

To his surprise, Raiser was in his room with others.

"Ah! Adam..! What were you doing with principal..!? We are sick of waiting brother..!"

Laughing a little, Adam explained everything, excluding his relationship with Resta. He only said about how he helped her with some things.

"So, you both were acquainted already..?" Theo asked.

Adam explained how he met her in the academy by coincidence. Of course he didn't mention about her disguise.

Next morning....

"So, Quon won't be here for the few days huh.."

Theo muttered while walking to the classroom. On their way, they passed someone they knew. It was, the arrogant young lady with dark blue hair.

With his eyes, Adam saw that, the being processing her body is the same kind, which is a devil, he defeated at the vampire kingdom.

But not wanting to do anything as he wanted to know about their plans, he ignored her for the time being.

In the classroom, he saw the girls talking amongst themselves and Raiser waiting for him and the boys. After waiting for a while, Jace entered the room and started her class.

"Now, that our class for today finished, let me announce something. In two weeks, the festival tournament is planned to take place. This time, the tournament is planned differently. Anyone, who wants to participate, should notify me. Some other announcements will be released later."

In the cafeteria....

Adam invited his friends and Amy and the others to eat together. He wanted to introduce them as well.

Seating around the table, the order was Adam, Amy, Ellie, Xe's, Rubelia, Raiser, Jesda, Theo, and Jeke.

"So, I'd like to introduce you all. Now, from the my left, this three beauties are my fiancees. Girls, this three boys after Raiser, are my friends."

First Amy and the girls introduced themselves. Which was followed by the boys.

"I actually have one more person as a friend. He left for an emergency situation from his hometown."

They all happily ate their lunch and talked a lot. Then in a shy and meek tone, Rubelia asked,

"Hey Adam...?"

Stopping the spoon midway, Adam asked,

"What's wrong Rubelia..?"

She looked very determined, so Adam already understood what is she going to ask. But wanting to push her, he waited.

"I...I've heard from father...I am sorry for being a coward!"

Denying her apology Adam said, "Why are you apologizing, princess..?" Hearing his old way of calling, she felt very panicked. He was only trying to tease her though.

"I heard from him that you already know about what I want. But, here I asked my father instead of you... If I was little more courageous, this wouldn't have happened!"

Although she was saying all this with a low voice, everyone inside the cafeteria could hear her words.

"That's why, I want to ask you the same. But i wanted to apologize first."

He nodded. He felt very bad attracting unwanted attention. So he wanted this all to finish.

Knowing what exactly is he thinking, she gulped before kneeling on the ground behind his chair with a determined eyes and requested,

"Master Adam! I'd like your guidance in Sword Fight! Please teach me..!"

Although her father, Rastus expected something like this would happen, it was not something planned beforehand. It was what she wanted to do.

Her voice and words made the whole cafeteria tremble and cause a ruckus.

"Did the princess just asked another student to teach her..?"

"But, isn't she a magister..?"

"How can a student teach another student..?"

"She even knelt! That means she is accepting him as her lifelong teacher...!"

"What is the princess thinking..?"

Among the people thinking this and that, some of them were releasing hostility. One of them was a young man with golden hair and blue eyes. The boys around him too eyed, Adam with a hostile look.

Next was a certain dark blue haired girl. Her whole body was trembling due to anger.

As this all happening, even though he sensed hostility, Adam wasn't going to attack someone out of the blue. But he had a specific role for now.

Standing up from his seat, Adam stood in front Rubelia, and asked, "You are a princess. You represent our country. Tell me, are you able to take responsibility if others creates rumors and say bad things about you..?

"I am willing to be responsible!"

Nodding his head, Adam asked again, "I am a student with your same authority and education. Why do you choose me instead of teachers from the academy..?"

"I know that if I learn from the teachers, I can get stronger. But, what I want is not strength. I want to learn everything. The reason I chose you is because, I understood, that, there is no one other than you in this world capable of teaching everything about sword. I want to learn from you teacher!"

Although he felt she was exaggerating, it was also a truth that, probably, no one can defeat him in terms of knowledge and strength in sword.

"Very Well! From now on, I, Adam Aves Aldians shall swear to teach you evey ounce of my knowledge in sword and guide you to surpass yourself!"

She bowed her head while still kneeling and said, "Rubelia, respects teacher..!"

Smiling at her words, Adam held her shoulder and pulled her up from her kneeling position. "Although, you are my student, it's not like a student has to kneel down to pay respect. So just saying is enough. I will start training you from tomorrow morning."

She said, "Yes! Uh.. But teacher, everyday, morning time is used for theory class. So I think it's not possible..."

Smiling in response to her, Adam said, "Don't worry. Just come to the training grounds tomorrow. I will do something about our morning class."

Bowing again, she smiled before leaving the cafeteria. Adam returned to his seat before asking, the people staring at him with a smile,

"What..? Never seen a handsome man before..?"

Feeling as if they want to beat him up, the boys all began cursing him for his luck, while the girls asked for more details. Only Raiser remained silent as he already knew about it.

The other students too returned to their own chores. But some of them were planning something....

.

.

.

.

Rubelia, who was running at full speed, reached the Royal Palace. She screamed, "Father! He accepted to teach me..!"

"I see..! Make sure you obey him and learn well. Even though his age is low, his knowledge and strength is not something anyone can joke about. I want to see, how this country will react about this...!

.

.

.

.

At night....

"Go! Investigate who that bastard is..!"

A young man with golden blonde hair and blue eyes ordered to a nearby young man. Obeying him, the young man ran out of the room.

"Wait for me, bastard! She is mine! I want to see who is arrogant enough to take what's mine..!"

.

.

.

.

In another room, a lady with dark blue hair was talking to someone. It was a shadow that appeared on the mirror.

"I feel like he's planning something... Why is a princess asking another student to teach her...?"

Answering her, the shadow said, "May be, this young man is a dangerous person..? Why don't you do a little investigation and try if you can find something..?

Nodding in understanding, the girl smirked evily before laughing with a low voice like a witch.
