Chapter 56 - The hidden test

Reiji and Lilith are walking towards the stands when a large man steps behind them. King Ragnur's face sours.

"I didn't know you were the new headmaster Gillian."

The man laughs heartily "Well well Ragnur if you weren't going off all the time to talk to azimuth you would know."

Gillian looks down to reiji then to Lilith. his eyes glow a deep shade of red.

"I am Gillian the red that is who I am outside of school. In this school you will call me headmaster." he turns his attention to Lilith " so your a living weapon of the sword type huh.

You are awfully weak for a sword.

Lilith chuckles at this while reiji steps forth glaring at Gillian.

Gillian response was to grab reiji by the shoulders. they both dissapear from their position Lilith freaks out by reijis sudden dissapearance.

Gillian and reiji appear inside the academy. inside the gym Gillian let's go of reiji.

"It is time for your true test reiji hashimiya. while you were specially admitted I won't allow a unknown in my academy. At least not while I am headmaster."

he looks to the side drifting off in thought. This man may look like a hulking brute, but he is a surprisingly good scholar as well.

"Let's see if you can survive for thirty minutes. I will consider it a passing grade."

reiji feels his scar on his cheek. "Thirty minutes huh? are you sure you will survive that long?"

Reiji's attitude has gotten less jubilant, and more solemn. "I have no time for this but."

he pulls his hands out and calls for Lilith. Lilith is instantly formed around his hands in gauntlet form.

Gillian eyes widen and he pulls out his weapon.

Rriji rushes him and Gillian pulls out a collapsible spear. spinning it, and knocking against Reiji's fist a Shockwave resounds. reiji uses his other hand to do a palm strike hitting Gillian. sending him back a bit. Gillian hands shake as a huge smile appears on his face.

"That's great time for the second round."

A giant aura surrounds Gillian his aura starts melting the area around him.

Gillian laughs smiling while her eyes turn to slits.

"You aren't the only lost one that wants to hide. Not many have been able to survive. I am Gillian the red called that for being the bastard half son of the dragon azimuth. not that he'd ever know."

Gillian walks around Reiji like a carnivore checking out prey.

' I see you aren't intimidated."

Reiji smiles walking towards him. Scales start forming around Gillian. King Ragnur senses Gillians aura quickly he rushes towards the area where Gillian and reiji are. When he arrives he sees the fight unfold between reiji and Gillian.

Outside everyone is around the entrance to the archway of the school chatting.. they start to feel the impact of the fight each Shockwave passes the new students. some academic some military.

[???] What the hell is going on what are these Shockwave from.

[???]Get down everyone

One of the building archways shake and fall. A white haired woman steps in front all the rubble is blown away the second it gets close.

The woman helps up a fallen student. the student asks for her name.

[???] My name is Anna

The woman says walking away towards the schools entrance.

The fight between Gillian and Reiji stops thick darkened scales appear on Reiji's arm. slowly fading as the two retract their powers. The cloud of rubble settles revealing the conclusion of their clash. Reiji has a broken arm, and Gillian's fingers are broken.

Gillian smiles "Shame we couldn't finish what we started huh?"

Reiji responds "Sorry I don't think I'm ready yet. I'm still not strong enough."

Gillian's eyes widen " Not strong enough..I understand. starting today you are a student of this academy. Don't forget to go to orientation you little brat."

Gillian snaps his fingers back, like it was normal while walking away he waves. Reiji uses healing touch on his broken arm. rips a piece of his shirt that was hanging off. and uses it to make a sling.

Reiji sighs shaking a bit " That is one scary man. Soon very soon I will be strong enough."

Ragnur turns to Gillian as he walks past him.

"So he can fight even you, He has to be her child."

Gillian grabs his wrist "I don't know something doesn't seem right. Please be on guard he can be far more powerful than I ever was."

Kong Ragnur looks at Reiji then Vanishes

Arianna runs in to the arena as reiji steps off the platform. She stops in front of him looking nervous. Reiji looks at her with a stern, but puzzled expression.

Arianna bites her lip "Umm hey do you.."

Reiji smiles "how have you been princess?"

Arianna smiles the sun shining on her, but that reunion was cut short.

[???] This us the last time you turn me Down you are mine!!!!

Reiji sighs giving himself a facepalm. Arianna turns around puzzled.

Skye steps out of the arenas entrance holding a blade to Sarah's throat.

[Skye] that girl is coming with me. In fact both of them are.

Reiji's face darkens he slides off his coar handing it to Arianna. Arianna looks at him

"Reiji please just tell my father we will be fine."

Reiji looks at skye his disheveled face looks deranged. early not used to losing.

"I will tell you once more she us mine leave or this girl dies."

Sarah is crying non-stop "please...please do as he says."

"Sarah is it?" reiji cracks his neck holding it.

Sarah moves her head slowly in a manner meaning yes.

"I am sorry but I have a job to do"

Reiji vanushes then reappears next to skye grabbing his wrist with the dagger. Reiji breaks his wrist causing skye to drop his blade. Sarah falls then rushes to Arianna.

Reiji kicks skye into the wall causing a depression in the wall from his strength.

"Those who can't tell the difference right or wrong at your age are rare. I let you off so easy after all. Skye rushes reiji screaming his face bloody and bruised. Reiji slides back then when skye got close pushes forward with all his strength. Reiji had struck skye in his neck killing him on the spot.

50 exp gained

Arianna and Sarah look in horror at what reiji had done. killing isn't new at least killing monsters, but to have a man killed in front of them in the school. the fear from them is palpable. they look to reiji whose face us half covered in shadow his eyes glow in the dark.

He breathes slowly then exhales.

The girls run out of the arena past reiji.

Reiji walks back to pick up his jacket. When he stands he is surrounded by imperial knights. A woman with white hair walks in. She stops in front of Reiji who finishes putting on his jacket. He looks up gritting his teeth. when he notices who is before him he bites his lip causing it to bleed. he knows now isn't the time to fight.

[Anna] You are Reiji hashimiya?
