A week later, Shen Riku Yuuto walked inside Zion Empire Blacksmith late afternoon as he was humming a song he saw Maya waiting for him. Shen Riku Yuuto waved his hand, and Maya let out a sigh she was about to ask someone to go and get this boy it's almost been over a week, and he has't showed up. Maya took his hand, and Shen Riku Yuuto jumped up happily. Today is the day he finds out if he passed the test or not. If he did, he would be earning that sweet good Euij points! The moment they walked inside, Shen Riku Yuuto noticed so many people that he didn't deal well with the crowds, so he just gentle tagged on Maya and who giggled.
"Master Ryker Maxwell."
"Come here, Shen Riku Yuuto, do you this men?"
"So you are the brat who broke the record on the fastest and the youngest blacksmith."
Shen Riku Yuuto his head.
"I must be in the wrong place, Sister Maya. Are you sure I came on the right floor? I am a free-range blacksmith!" Shen Riku Yuuto whined.
Maya laughed and pinched Shen Riku Yuuto face.
"This is President Zion Camden. Pay your respect."
Shen Riku Yuuto eyes turned red, and he bowed his head.
"Hello President Zion Camden."
Zion Camden walked forward and stood in front of Shen Riku. Yuuto felt so scared. What kind of hell did he walk into? Teacher Ming Ray, I am so going to kill you.
Zygote City
Achoo is my troublesome disciple cursing me humph that fool good luck in blacksmith world hehe but let's see how people can handle that temper of yours and your cunning attitude haha.
Shen Riku Yuuto looked at the president, who knelt down and gave Shen Riku Yuuto his second grade badge.
"Shen Riku Yuuto nine years old and the youngest to ever reach this level welcome to our blacksmith these people here are important people and they will help you in the future you must remember to always work hard."
"I understand."
They was one person in the room who was unhappy. Zion Ruby she used to be the youngest blacksmith in Zion Empire Blacksmith now she not it pissed off that a nine year old showed up out of nowhere and took her spot light she stepped forward and grabbed Shen Riku Yuuto hand within a second everyone was shocked from her movement.
"I challenge you into a battle."
"I don't want to."
"What do you mean you don't want to be your senior brother."
"Do you pay me points?"
"Excuse me!? I am your senior sister!"
"Humph, so what why do I need to fight you and please let go of me," Shen Riku Yuuto said as he pulled his hand away.
"You are so arrogant!"
"How am I arrogant I don't care about the fame or whatever only money and that's all I don't care about my status as a blacksmith so am I arrogant you are the one who is arrogant."
Zion Ruby clenched her teeth together, and she pointed at Shen Riku Yuuto, who narrowed his eye and crossed his arms.
"Alright, Ryker Maxwell will show you where you will get your task. Please come as often as you like we will get a blacksmith shop ready for you."
"No need, my master already has one for me, thank you."
"Daddy, why did you stop me from attacking him and defeating him in blacksmith."
My dear daughter, you will lose face. This boy is a blacksmith monster.

The next morning, Shen Riku Yuuto was in a good mood he skipped along as he sang his favorite song, and he saw a group of third years standing in front of him.
"You brat you will have a blacksmith competition with me."
It's this girl again.
"No."
"Little boy, I will take you -"
POW!
He sent a third year student flying as he tried to walk away but Zion Ruby kicked Shen Riku Yuuto so hard on the chest what is this heat so powerful it feels like the sun is just shining on you.
"Aren't you coming now."
Whoosh.
"Oh, so Zion Ruby is bullying people now," a voice called out. It was Kingston Hayden he grabbed his sword as he was behind her.
"Humph, don't you think you can kill me?"
Kingston Hayden had this killing instinct.
He truly would kill me.
"Tsk messing with my sworn brother how about I just slaughter these fuckers?" Dominic asked his eyes aren't hazel green but dark green as if his was about to go and a killing rampage. These two people are truly full of killing instinct and that guy just fought everyone within a second.
"What is going on out here now all of you my office now!"
Few minutes later.
"Shen Riku Yuuto explain what happened."
"Once my dad said if I ever bully someone younger then me he will strictly punish me but if an older person bullies me and I choose to fight back he will see if I was wrong or right he also said if someone throws the first punch it's self defense so I fought back when they gained up on and they attack me first I don't see what I did wrong."
"You."
"We only wanted to have a friendly match."
"Oh please even the pigs wouldn't believe that shit what kind of friendly match did you want where you beat up a nine year old humph senior sister my damn ass," Dominic said.
"Shut up!"
"Yeah we did the right thing after all you are older shouldn't you be protecting us but instead you are bullying us how unlucky are we?"
No one said a word until someone spoke up.
"Yes my student is right humph you stupid kids if you dare bully my students again I will fight your teacher!" King Remington said as he pointed at Vice Dean Ashton.
"King Remington can you please show some respect?"
"Sure how about you defeat me first you three let's go," King Remington said.
"They need to get their punishment!"
"Humph it's your students who started in my eyes my student didn't do anything wrong but try to protect themselves."
Vice Dean Ashton stared at King Remington who was already walking away with his three students.
Outside. All King Remington students were wearing their gym clothes he threw metal on the ground and dusted his hands he sat down on his chair and grabbed a cup of coffee.
"All of you put on the metal pieces and start running ten laps if I see you walking that will two more laps around the track for everyone!"
Within thirty minutes a guy named Lucas started walking.
"That's two more laps Lucas start running."
Everyone groaned and shot daggers as Lucas who started running again. Kingston Hayden was running out breath he felt so dizzy. Shen Riku Yuuto helped him up and his eyes widen isn't this guy way to proud of himself to help someone.
"We are friends now."
Kingston Hayden eyes widen he has never had friends all the friends he had were fake and they all used him but what he saw was warmth and kindness in Shen Riku Yuuto his face turned all red.
"Kingston are you alright."
"Shut."
"Oooh is someone blushing can't believe someone is nice to him and want's to be his friend?" Dominic asked as he run along side Shen Riku Yuuto.
"SHEN RIKU YUUTO YOU SEEM TO LIKE HELPING PEOPLE TEN MORE LAPS FOR EVERYONE!"
"SHEN!" Everyone shouted and he let out a groan.
"Shen you should stop."
"No, no we are friends ten laps that's no big deal!"
As King Remington watched the students he heard footsteps. King Remington gaze swept back and forth, his pupils abruptly shrunk while the expression on his face changed for a moment before he let out a frown.
After two hours of running the kids were given a day off. Dominic and Shen Riku Yuuto both walked to Alice Cafe and grabbed their food. As they were walking home together, Shen Riku Yuuto noticed a crowd of people.
In front of the was a large number of students who were all speaking in a lively manner. These students were all surrounding a very special bluestone wall – the Southwind Academy's Wall of Honor. It contained the descriptions of all the mighty figures who are known to be outstanding talented but also bride new at Star Fairy Academy.
By now, all the students had seen the Wall of Honor countless times. Logically speaking, the oldest kids were used to seeing this, but for the newcomers, this was new for them. To them, they stood there weary of examining it long ago, but for some reason, they were quite focused on it today.
Shen Riku Yuuto turned his gaze to a very specific point on the Wall of Honor. There was a gleaming crystal at that point, emanating rays of light that slowly coalesced into a tall, willow, and almost lifelike figure.
The figure was that of a girl. She was dressed in the school Star Fairy Academy, a light blue cape, a simple white tunic, and a short black dress. She had a pair of long, dainty legs that were perfectly white and pleasing to the eye.
Her facial features were similar to the exquisite. She had an elegant, raised nose, long and thick lashes, and snow-white skin. Blackish purplish hair that was long tied up in a ponytail, her eyes were full of mysterious energy which gave off a purplish pinkish color that blended in extremely well together. She wore a veil over half of her face, showing only her beautiful eyes.
Her eyes emanated an ineffable feeling of purity. If you stared into them long enough, you would begin to feel a sense of pressure.
Her gaze was rather cool, and she stared straight ahead, with one hand on her slender hips and the other resting on the hilt of a heavy sword. Anyone who saw her would instantly feel a sensation of heroic, fierce majesty emanating from her. She truly was a soul-stirring girl in terms of both appearance and demeanor. Next to her were two little creatures, one little golden brown creature that looked like a dog. Its large golden red eyes stared straight ahead, the other was laying fur was pinkish white color it looked like a soft little guy.
The wall behind her projection held her name –Shi Miryu Yining. She was one of the dazzling star. Even though she was the same age as Shen Riku Yuuto and Dominic, both could tell that her talent was above anyone else.
