"Don't you ignore me!"
Even though the irritated guy kept screaming, Detro focused on figuring out what was happening to his left arm. But Alice on the other hand is about to snap. He knew that he should do something about it.
"Hey Alice, I think we should leave"
She agreed with him. He stood up and Alice then followed her. He used fortification magic to himself then carried Alice.
"Hey! Get back here!"
Right before he got caught he multiplied the fortification magic to 3x. "That was close wasn't it?". Even though he's known as the weakest he is still a formidable foe. Alice is not surprised that he can do these types of things with magic since he's the second smartest at the academy.
"Where should we head to?"
"To the roof" Alice replied. He's still wondering what happened to his arm. They arrived at the roof. He quickly puts Alice down. Alice looked at him.
" You're pretty tough not getting irritated by that. I hate people who look down on others."
"I never thought I'd here that, especially from you." he replied. He always thought that Alice didn't think about these things because she is royalty and most importantly one of the elite 3, the most powerful students at the academy.
"I was actually looking for you."
He was confused. "Huh? Why?" he doesn't know why she was looking for him. He knows that there is nothing special about him so he wondered why.
"Your left arm. What happened earlier was because the seal of the shadow dragon is almost undone."
"So that's why there was an overwhelming amount of Magic. Wait , you noticed." He replied. He thought that none of them can sense that Magic coming from his arm. He remembered that he heard of the shadow dragon before, it was the dragon that almost destroyed the whole kingdom. He was shocked learning that the same dragon that almost destroyed a kingdom is now sealed within his arm. He then remembered that a training camp was announced this morning and thought that this is a great opportunity for him to control this seal power. Alice then claps.
"So do you have a partner for the training camp?"
"No" he replied. No one wanted to partner with him since they thought that if someone tried to kill him at that time they would also get killed.
"Then I'll be your partner"
He was shocked that he couldn't say a word. "I'll take that as a yes." Alice said. "Wait how do you know about the seals?" he asked. "Oh! I read it in a book that the shadow dragons power is ominous and that's the same case in your hand hehe" she replied. He felt a dark presence watching them. He looked behind but there was no one there. Then he remembered something. The guys who were picking on him at the clinic also picked on him this morning and they said that they hired an assassin. Worried for Alice he told her that he had somewhere to go which Alice accepts.
"Why would they tell me that they hired an assassin?" he said. But thanks to their ignorance he was extra wary of his surroundings. "But I sure am lucky today. I got to talk to Alice." he said. Alice the eldest daughter of King Julius. Being beautiful is one thing but her Magic is the most powerful in the royal family. He thought that because of Alice's power and position in the kingdom it would be impossible to talk to her. But her beauty can't go unnoticed. Her beautiful eyes that has the same color as a beautiful night sky. Her golden hair and pale skin. "How can a beautiful and kind girl get born in this terrible world." he then said.
He remembered what his mother told him. "That this world only goes in favor of those who have powerful Magic, well at least that's what others may think. But the truth is that this world doesn't help anyone at all. They say that the world has 3 rules. 1. Don't ever belittle any race. 2. Don't use magic for evil. and 3. Never take advantage of anyone. No one actually believed this until the shadow dragon came and almost destroyed the kingdom. Since then we all have been following these rules."
He wondered where did these rules come from. And how is he related to the shadow dragon that the world sent."I'm just a normal looking guy. Red eyes, black hair, and pale skin. But still it's weird the weakest being connected to a dragon... I think things will get interesting from now on. But these uniforms sure are weird."
