Chapter 25 - Evelyn Rosewood

The main building is huge like the warrior main guild base in the capital. It also had a huge hall with many receptionists for the administration purpose.

Many other students are already queued to do their registration and some administration procedure.

In this time of period, the hall is always full of people and packed like a sardine. Fortunately, I come early so the queue is still not too long.

Before that, I separated myself with my brothers since they have some appointments to do. We promise to gather again around lunch time in the dining area.

But, before my brothers leave, they also appoint some students to look over me like some kind of bodyguard.

The one that seems to be the leader of this group is called Lucas Morgan. He has blonde hair with a medium build body and brown eye. His attire is student uniform with purple armband that indicates he is also S class like my brother.

All student uniforms are the same except for their armband that indicated their class rank. Class E is white, class D is orange, class C is blue, class B is yellow, class A is red, and class S is purple as Lucas explained this to me.

Apparently Lucas is a commoner who has good talents. Fernan often rescues and helps him when he is being bullied by another noble class.

In this academy, the aristocratic title is not applied since a lot of youth from other kingdoms also come to study here.

The one that decides the most in this academy is talent and their own skill. But, still oppression toward talented commoners from the noble still occurs like Lucas's case.

As long as it does not cross some line, the teacher will close their eyes about this kind of behaviour.

Lucas talks non-stop about what brother Fernan did which is getting annoying. During this time, my queue was diminishing and finally it was my turn. I told Lucas and the others to wait while I approached the receptionist.

"Moru, watch out for everyone that handles my document. Take the one that I deemed as a target" As I said in whisper and got replied, "Yes, master" from my shadow.

It was one of the Moru skills, [Shadow Blending], a level 4 shadow warrior skill. The academy forbids students to bring their own staff to the academy ground. They only allowed other people to come in until the main area at the entrance.

Since my lovely Moru may do something unnecessary if I leave her for a long time, I told her to hide inside my shadow.

Besides, I feel more safe with people that I trust around me than this lousy bodyguard my brother appoints. Moreover, I also found few bodyguard camouflage themselves sneaking around the academy.

Moru's shadow blending is quite special as I did some 'modification' for her. I already test with my mother.

I found that even with eight-star level detection magic can't even detect Moru's presence when she goes hiding.

This is also the reason why Moru can easily beat Luna who is a high level warrior without making any commotion.

I give my letter recommendation, magician certification, and warrior certification to the receptionist while I keep staring at all the staff for the possibility of stealing a glance at it.

Fortunately, the receptionist is quite professional. After startled a little bit seeing my warrior certification, she immediately goes back to her professional face and handles my registration according to the procedure.

She asked me which certification that I want to add to the affiliation of the academy. I choose my magician certification and in a few seconds my registration is done. I checked my student identification and it show:

Yosep Temus

Age: 8 years' old

Student of Rosewood Royal academy

Combat Path : Magician

Class : S Rank

After my registration, the receptionist reminded me to check the announcement this evening for distribution of class and dorm at the announcement board.

I thank her for the info and leaving the hall. Looking at the time there is still some time before lunch time.

I decided to tour the surrounding academy first even though I already know where, who, and what is from my 3D map in my head. But, I still can help to observe the surroundings myself.

After a while, I regret my decision to tour the surrounding. It was because these annoying bodyguards keep following me around like I am some sort of mafia boss.

Students from the surrounding look at me warily and avoid me. I even hear a few of them gossiping me as "The Untouchable".

While lamenting my embarrassing condition because of my stupid brothers, I saw a girl that in white blouse fall down.

She has blonde hair and a slim figure with an eight years old body. Normally, I will not care about her at all as I am not a good person in nature that likes to help people.

However, when I see her I notice and surprise that she is one of those "Princess of light". Moreover, her power is still dormant and that's why my scan cannot perceive her.

I immediately help her by catching her from her fall using my fastest speed while asking, "Are you okay? You suddenly fell down." As I asked her worriedly.

She has white pale face with a charming golden eye and beautiful face. "Ahh.. th.. thank you. It's just my constitution is weak from a child and this academy is quite big. I just need to rest for a while." As she responded.

"Damn, I was right about all her features and the same weak constitution from a child. She is definitely one of the "Princess of light". But, that means I must… no awaken my other personality comes first." As I thought while looking at her.

"There is a bench near the shade tree nearby. Why don't I help you to rest there?" as I offer my help with my hand and smile.

While she is blushing, "In… In that case I will be in your care… Ahh… I mean thank you for the help." She stutters a little bit and takes my hand.

Then, I helped her walk to a nearby bench under the shade tree. I already ignore all the stupid bodyguard who praise me like some sort of God since I help her. During this time, I am also uncertain what to do.

"I.. No, we owe a lot to the princess of light at that time but she is a different princess of light of another world."

"I shouldn't feel guilty to do that to her. Still I can't decide what to do. Huft.. I guess I can just leave it for later."

"I will do what I feel when the time comes. But, the one for sure is my must protect this woman. Not only because of the debt and gratitude toward that princess of light but also because I feel this is what Septem will do." As I thought a lot.

"Eemm.. are you alright? You seem a little bit out of space?" Suddenly she asked and broke my inner thought.

"Ahh.. It's because you are so cute that I blank a little bit." As I responded by teasing her a little bit.

"Ccuutee… no I.. I mean.. are you trying to flirt with me?" she was surprised by my response and getting angry while pouting her cheek.

It seems she thought me like other men that only look at her beauty. Considering her constitution and personality, I really understand her predicament.

Then, I just pinch her pouting cheeks and saying, "Of course not, I truly say you are cute. Just look at this pouting cheeks. I really like to pinch it" while I keep playing with her cheek.

She groaned from me playing with her cheek. She also begged me to stop and tear up a little.

I stopped playing with her red cheek from the pinching.

At this moment, "Meaaniee… How can you do this to lady face? It hurt a lot." as she started to begin a little bit crying.

I smiled, "Can I hug you? You are just too cute. I can't resist hugging you."

She suddenly stops crying from surprise with my sudden proposal and wants to get away from me.

But, I already hugged her and restrained her. She struggles a little bit while closing her eyes. I give her a patting in her head until she calms down. Then, after a while I release her from my embrace while she is blushing like a red tomato.

"I am sorry about my sudden hug. I just can't resist as you are too cute. Anyway my name is Josep Temus. May I know who this cute lady is?" as I tried to emphasize cute words.

"St.. stop saying I am cute. My name is Evelyn Ros.. Rosewood, third daughter of the current King Rosewood." While she starts to stutter about her royal name part, she looks at me for my reaction.

From my reading I can tell that she expects me to be surprised and apologizes for my rude behavior before. But I will just break her expectation.

I pinch her cheek again, "Ahh so cute… are really a human or a plush toy? Oh you say that you are a princess. Then, it means you are a princess plush toy. Can I hug you again?"

I grabbed her hand. She was surprised by my reaction while blushing more, "Wh.. who is a princess plush toy. You are an insolent prick to disrespect me like that. You bla bla bla…." She keeps speaking bad about me non-stop.

After a while she out of breath and done talking. Looking at the time it was almost lunch time.

I hugged her once again and said in her ear, "I don't care if you hate me because I will always protect you from anything."

I release her from my embrace as she is blushing like baked crab now. While I said that, I feel another girl is approaching here. I thought she was one of her friends. Then, I told her I will meet her again as I go toward the dining area leaving her behind.
