Chapter 185  Rubina Alka Rosewood & Damon Cryptorn

"I doubt it. He might be still sleeping and just lied about it. I wouldn't be surprised." Rebecca chimed in.

"He can't be that lazy right?" Another girl who was sitting near them said, hearing their conversation. She was Amelia and Rebecca's roompartner, Rubina Rosewood. She had the beautiful face of a maiden, with her auburn hair tied in a ponytail and hazel brown eyes which seemed full of light.

The pair of 4 girls were sitting on the table near the door. They were all wearing the academy's uniform and were currently in the canteen, waiting for him to show up, so they could leave. There's around half an hour left until the classes starts, and no one wanted to be late on their first day. They've had their breakfast and that guy still hasn't come.

"You only met him a few days ago, so you don't know him?" Rebecca replied. "What is his room partner even doing? I saw him leave some time ago, can't he drag him here."

"He probably tried and then gave up." Ayla said with a smile.

"I should just give him a big alarm clock, that'll blast his eardrums, so he can wake up on time." Rebecca said with a smile. "Right Amy?" She asked her friend.

Amelia shook her head, glancing at the door of the canteen "He's on his way. He'll be here soon."

In the past week, since the protagonist was busy in his room, Rio gave everyone a tour of the academy. And they had found that they're all in the same class. The first year had 10 batches, and the division of students was done randomly too. There wasn't something like rank or background in consideration, so all students were mixed up.

Obviously this fact would've been random, but with an absurd thing as fate and protagonist halo at the mix, most of the important characters were pulled into the first class, including all of them too.

They were all busy waiting when Rubina saw some students gathered around a boy and pointed towards them. "Hey, look there."

Rebecca turned her eyes and saw Lincoln arguing with some student. Since there weren't many people in the canteen at this time, she could hear what they were talking about.

"What, you think you're some hot shot huh? Looks like you forgot our last meeting." Lincoln said, glaring at a student with gray hair and a pale complexion.

"I already told you, it's not up to me." The boy spoke, his tone hoarse. His name was Damon Cryptorn. Cryptorn family is a lesser known family of Hexcasters - dealing in poison, curse and death magic.

Cryptorn's are less powerful as the topic they pride themselves in, is something considered evil in the common people's eyes. Thus they have less influence and are looked down upon.

This gap of identity only increases when one compares it to the noble families.

And by Damon's bad luck, he became the room partner of a noble - Lincoln Korbil.

Lincoln and Edward, who had been friends since childhood, so when they joined academy, they naturally wanted to stay together for fun, but since the decision wasn't in their hands, they could just hope they'll get the same room. But it didn't happen. Both of them got separate rooms and even separate floors. That's why they've been trying to force their original room partners to make a request for change and leave the room, so they can shift together. The one living with Edward was someone from the holy church of Neisah, so instead of forcing him, they both decided to force Lincoln's partner, who was just a nobody.

"You just have to beg harder then. Maybe I ought to give you a beating, so you can learn your lesson." Edward said, as he came forward.

Since the use of mana attacks outside the classes and their own training practices was not allowed, he couldn't really use his skills and bully this kid. So he can just clench his fists and give him an old school beatdown.

"Don't, I'll talk to him again. This time more seriously." Seeing him Damon's pale face became even paler and almost turned dead white. He was scared of these 2 villains, cause he had been beaten by them once when he was a kid. He thought here at the academy no one would cause trouble for him and he could finally forget about the prejudice and learn what he wants freely. But the very allowed, but in some cases, if the warden agrees and you have a valid enough reason, one can still get their approval.

first day, he got stuck with that guy as a room partner. And if that wasn't enough, now they're even forcing him to go and ask the warden to change his rooms. Normally this kind of thing wasn't allowed, but in some cases, if the warden agrees and you have a valid enough reason, one can still get their approval.

Hearing Damon begging for mercy, Edward showed a sinister smile as he grabbed his shoulder "I'll give you 2 days time. If I don't see the results," His hands started to exert more strength in his grip as Damon winced in pain. Edward came near his ears and whispered "Then I heard that quite a few people die from their own poisons as accidents in your line of magic."

Damon's forehead drowned in sweat as he heard the death threat. He never expected just after coming here he'd be treated like this. Seeing him shaking in fear, Edward showed a kind smile on his face and left him alone there.

Damon ran out of the canteen in fear, afraid that they might really beat him next or even kill him. He was more of an auxiliary type of mage, and even his rank was much lower than these rich nobles, he dare not stay a second and risk his life. As for asking the warden to change his room, even if he has to beg on his knees, he'll do it. The thought of complaining about them or reporting them to the staff never even crossed his mind, as the notion that nobles can do whatever they want is etched in his mind.

"Stupid bullies." Rebecca muttered watching the whole scenario. She even wanted to stand up and teach them a lesson but remembering what happened the last time she went forward to help someone, she stayed silent too. And besides, she knew things like this were normal in the academy.

If one doesn't have the strength to fight for himself, then there is no point in saving them. As then they'd only be dependent on you and drag you down too.

She learned this lesson 4 years ago, on a certain dungeon trip with her brothers, Amy and a lazy panda.

Ayla and Rubina simply lacked the saint contrast, so they didn't feel anything about it. Ayla had spent her childhood being labeled as a curse and scum, a death threat was the least to make her bat an eye.

Rubina on the other hand, came from the tribes of Alka. Which only valued strength and simplicity in their nature. They're known for their behaviors of being frank and open about their thoughts.

So in her eyes, weak getting bullied by the strong is the most natural thing. It was even fun to watch this. That's what her intention was, when she first pointed at them. She wanted to let her friends enjoy this drama too.

Leon entered the canteen at this point, as he collided with Damon rushing out with clear terror on his face. Ignoring Leon who wanted to help him, Damon apologized and ran out in a hurry. His behavior made Leon puzzled, but he didn't know anything or anyone here, so he couldn't do anything for help.

Ignoring him, Leon entered the canteen and saw Edward and Lincoln chatting with each other - smiling and cheering. Those smiles on their faces irritated him, as those reminded him of the time when he was getting beaten by their guards and they laughed at him looking down on him.

[Don't lose your temper, boy. They're just ants in your journey. Focus on your strength and then, none of them will matter anymore.]

He heard Apollo's voice in his head, urging him to let go of his anger, thus he did just that.

Ignoring them, he turned and walked towards the other side of the corner and sat down.

<The menu of the canteen would be sent to every student on their devices every morning, so they can notify the chefs beforehand if they have any preference or dislike. Students can also order their own dishes which aren't on the menu, but for that, they'd need to spend their merit points(MP).>

Leon was eating his breakfast in a hurry, while glancing at his watch from time to time, to see how much time he had left. When suddenly a shadow loomed over his table and he heard a voice -"So you finally decided to show up huh. Now fight me."
