Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 Trouble right after joy

Xavier woke up and looked at Clara who was sleeping peacefully in his embrace, her bountiful breasts pressing against his chest.

Xavier could resist planting a deep kiss on her beautiful lips.

This kiss probably wife her up as her eyes fluttered and opened up.

Her aqua blue eyes looked lazily at Xavier and shined with a happy expression. She leaned in and planted a kiss of her own on Xavier's lips.

This kiss slowly turned into a tongue was between the 2 of them and this again looked to another round of passionate love making round.

After another hour of war in the bed, both Clara and Xavier woke up and got ready to go back to the academy.

Xavier needed to hurry as he would be late for the class and there was an important announcement today about the apprentice mechanic exams and Clara was in a hurry as she couldn't miss her job as it would land her in a bit of trouble.

They got into a Hover car and went to the academy.

"I'll be going, I'll meet you today evening." said Xavier as he was reluctant to let her go.

"I'll be waiting for you." said Clara and have him a little smooch and went away.

Xavier nodded and also went to his class. In the class, the other three were already present and just as Xavier arrived and say down, Professor Luka also arrived.

He looked at the 4 of them, nodded and started the lessons.

While the lessons were going on, Josh, who was sitting next to Xavier asked," How was your first time?"

Xavier was surprised. He asked," How did you know?"

"Oh come on. I've also visited the mission hall and everyone i visit, I see you and that attendant lady act all lovey divert with each other. It's so sweet that it'll give me that ancient disease, what do they call it, the one which happens when we eat too much sweet stuff, ah yes, is diabetes."

"And yesterday, I saw you two going out of the academy in a fancy attire and I knew that things were going well."

"But how did you know that I had my first time?"

"Well only a man who had waged war all night will have both a bright face and large bags below his eyes at the same time."

The professor suddenly cleared his throat in order to catch Xavier and Josh's attention and started at them.

Xavier turned his gaze away in embarrassment while Josh didn't truly care about what the professor thought.

"Sigh, kids these days, they just don't have the respect that we used to have for our teachers" the professor mumbled with a sigh and continued on with the lesson.

After the class was over, the professor said," I'd like to announce something today. It's about the apprentice exams. It's been pushed back by 5 days."

"The reason for this is because there is the upcoming intercity academy tournament held every 3 years. This time, they have decided that they will send 2 students from the freshmen to the tournament along with your seniors to experience what it will be like and prepare for the next tournament."

"This is the privilege given to our mechanic department by the academy. Whoever get the to 2 spots will be eligible and will be visiting together with your seniors."

"So prepare well in the week time you've been given and try your best."

The four people heard this and got excited. This was a chance to spectacte the intercity tournament. This tournament had about 100 academy branches participating and getting any kind of achievement in this tournament will bring you glory in all of the South Star City.

Xavier got up as soon as the professor went out and rushed towards the missions area to meet up with Clara to tell the news.

But as he heard the mission hall, he heard Clara's voice.

She was arguing in a loud tone," Why am I being fired from this job? I've worked here for 2 years and have a perfect track record. And now out of the blue, your saying that I've done a mistake and your during me?!"

A man's voice sounded right after," Calm down Miss Sirius. It has been found out that you have been violating the rules for the past 3 days and on that account I've got the proof and the direct consent from the person in charge of the hall, Vice Dean Reginald Wade."

"And please don't go on violating the calm of this mission hall. The Vice Dean had also said that if you do not co-operate, the Punishment department can take custody of you and punish you accordingly."

Xavier saw that Clara was in distress and came running. He played Clara in the back. She was surprised initially but she buried her head in his chest and cried.

Xavier looked at the middle aged man who was talking wither and asked," Why are you during her?"

"And who might you be young man?"

"I'm her boyfriend, Xavier Argent."

"Oh, you're the new 1 star middle grade concocter who recently took the missions?"

"Yes, I'm the one who took the mission."

Xavier was secretly surprised. ' supposed to be a 2 star concocter but this man recognised me as only a 1 star concocter. Something's strange.'

"Well, you should be the one at fault because you are the one who made her lose her job."

"What?" Xavier cried out in surprise.

"How is that possible that he is the one who made me lose my job? That's bullshit!" shouted Clara.

"Hmph" the man snorted and replied," Weren't you the one who boarded the concoction mission these 3 days."

"Yes I did." answered Clara straightforwardly. "If you think that is a crime I suggest you read the rules of our job properly, I have the rights to give missions to whomever I deem fit to take the mission."

"That's where you are in the wrong Ms.Clara. You must give the mission to someone who is worthy and not only that you must also check if they have successfully completed the mission. Can you say that you have done the same?"

"Of course I have! I took a look at the number of potions and it was correct. I've even distributed them properly to their respective clients and recieved the confirmation as well. So where did I go wrong?"

"Miss Clara, that's exactly where you have gone wrong. First, Mister Xavier had finished the task in a single day. One must know that he took an order of more than a 1000 potions and he managed to finish it all within 1 night."

"Do you know how you did it? Well let me tell you, what he concocted weren't potions, but rather poisons. Yesterday evening, when someone from a mercenary group took the potion, he went straight into shock and died shortly afterwards."

"When the Vice Dean was informed of this matter, he personally said that he would die Clara from her job and expel her from the academy."

"Now so you know why you are getting fired?" the man asked with a cold glint in his eyes. But being the cold glint, one could see ridicule flash past it.

While others may not notice it, Xavier did and he said," What about the potions I created are defective? I'm a 100 percent sure that those potions were good and even more sure that they were not poison even if they did not work as intended."

"Mister Xavier, you are not to be involved in the masters of the mission hall. As the manager of the missions hall I have all the power to make sure you never get another mission ever again if you continue taking."

The Manager came close to Xavier's ears and whispered," And young man, there are some people whom you've offended that you can't afford to and this is just the small start in the retribution you'll face in these days you'll be living in the academy."

Xavier didn't understand at first whom he had offended to that extent but he caught a glimpse of Roger and Richard standing at the entrance with an evil grin tugging at the corner of their lips.

Roger then mother some words to Xavier and when he understood what he said, Xavier's heart turned restless.
