A few minutes later...
"Huff! Huff! Aether where the hell is your dorm?" Claire shouts as she could not find his dorm at all, in fact, she's not even on the correct floor. "Why is there no number 113 here?, are you sure you are living in 113 Aether?" Lena ask as she was going through the same floor a lot of times. Of course, Aether was standing in the side watching them struggling. He was trying his best not to laugh. "Hehe, told you guys you can't do it. Accept your defeat and don't forget to treat me to food okay," Claire who was irritated voiced "This little p-," and then was interrupted "Alright let's go," by Aether before Claire finishes her sentence. "You did it on purpose didn't you, hey you," Claire was more irritated at how he treated her like a ghost "Hey, stop ignoring me," Aether inside his luscious mind "Hehe even I struggle to find my dorm at first, you think you can find it so easily. Never, not in a hundred years, hahaha." He said that and at looked at their face, they were confused "It's nice to see them like this, look at their faces it's terrific that I might burst into laughter," they were all confused as to why they were using the staircase to find dorm 113. "We are here, hehe." all of them saw it, with their own eyes, they even wiped their eyes, dorm number 113 was in the corner of the fourth floor.
"Why on earth is this dorm placed here at the end of the hallways of the fourth floor?" Claire shouts as she was also irritated with Aether's proud look. "So there really is dorm 113, I thought you were fascinating for a moment," Zheny and the others were mounting. "Oi! Oi! Oi! What do you think of me? Even if there is an age difference, I am not a small kid who fantasizes you know," Aether sighs and mounts in his head "Forget it I am too tired to argue with them anyway." Aether often gets tired, reasons? Of course, there is no reason for it, bwahahaha. We need our main character to have some special characteristics. "Hehe, that's my trick, anyway wanna come in?" Aether points at his room asking if they want to give a visit. "We would love to, but we can't it's already late, maybe next time okay," Claire and her friends leave after that. Aether then closes his door and mounted "Of course I know it's late, that's why I ask, it wouldn't be nice if just close my door, now they won't think I am rude," Aether then went to take a shower "Now then, since everyone has left and I have to think now, it seems the secret which I don't to reveal can no longer be a secret. There's going to be a big bang tomorrow. Well, this is troublesome now, what should I do? No matter how I see it, it's still damm too early. Maybe I should kill that Ryan guy, Nah not worth it. Arghhhh! I will see it tomorrow based on how things go. Hope it won't be as troublesome as I think...Hey, where is my saop, ack!" Ah yes, in search of soap, he sacrifices his backbone, a moment of silence.
The next day, Aether was standing at the hallways silently and calmly, yes, that's what someone who sees him right now will tell. But, in reality "Why? Why? Why is it more troublesome than I thought it will become? It seems like the rumors have spread. Everyone in the hallway is looking at me. Are they stupid? Did they really think I wouldn't notice them talking about me, sigh!" It was a sigh of life, for a man who failed to take precautions for something that he knows going to happen. As it was going, suddenly, Aether heard a voice reaching him, it was Morgan and it seems he heard of the gossip too. "Hey Aether, is it true that you have a sister in this Academy and it's one of the chosen ones too?" Aether sighed again and voiced "Yeah, sorry for not telling you. I had my reasons." Morgan was way too okay with it as he casually respond "Nah I don't mind." Aether was touched and he mounted "If only, everyone is like Morgan," It seems like the rumors have spread throughout the whole Academy, more than worrying about himself, "It's already spread this much, If anything I am really worried about her, how is she going to take this," Aether sighed again as too much is happening right now. "Hey! Hey look who it is, it's our Claire's little brother who doesn't even have magic. What a big difference between siblings uhh," yes another trouble arrived and it was none other than Ryan. Listening to that, people started gossiping again. Aether was pissed, he couldn't sigh again since the readers will kill him if they keep on reading that sentence. With a cold tune, Aether asks "What do you want?" even though he was using a cold tune, he still didn't release any pressure there as students are around him. "Hey, hey, don't be so cold to your future brother-in-law now," Ryans said with a smirk.
It was at that moment, he knew, he fucked up, Aether straight away activates his magic and stops the flow of time, "Inhales" Just as the name goes. Everything and everyone around him froze, completely. Aether didn't spoke a word, he just walked toward Ryan. "He won't be able to hear anyway,"..."Bamm!!"... a punch in the abdomen was delivered to Ryan, since the flow of time has stopped Ryan won't feel anything for now but after Aether deactivates his magic, Ryan would feel the pain of being punched out of nowhere, it's just like when Truck-kun suddenly comes and hits the male or female lead in the middle of the road. Right before Aether deactivates his magic he said this thing to Ryan in a cold tune "Watch your damm mouth, scum." and the magic was deactivated "Arghhhhhhh!" Ryans screams and kneels on the ground, "W-wh-what was that, who punched me?" the pain was overbearing "I didn't see anyone coming near, was it a sneak attack or was it him," he mounted before falling unconscious. "Ahhh! what happened, why has Ryan suddenly fallen unconscious." One of the students screams.
As the crowds were gathering, Aether took his chance and sneaks his way out of there. Luckily no one sees him, well even if they sees him I don't think they will accuse him since in people's eye, Aether is a non-gifter and a non-gifter can't possibly beat a gifter. "Who would have thought that I would use my magic against scums like you, but it felt good. Anyway back to business, I will go and look for her," and just like nothing happened, Aether started his search for Claire. Will he find her?
