"Cough, hello, you must be...?" Larissa coughed to calm herself and asked Lucio questioningly.
Although she clearly knew and had read everything about Lucio about 10 times, she feigned ignorance.
"Hello my name is Lucio Teseo Creat, I am the new transfer student who was recommended by the Nevermore Academy committee." Lucio respectfully introduced himself to Larissa.
"Oh, now I remember, so you are Lucio, the new student who is a Fairy and he who was voted for by all the people in the committee to enter the academy. You are a little late, but still let me give you welcome to Nevermore Academy. My name is Larissa Weems and I am the current Principal of Nevermore." Larissa also introduced herself and still hadn't made direct eye contact with Lucio, to the eyes of the others she seemed like she wasn't caring about Lucio and she showed little interest in him.
But in reality he acted like that because if he looked directly into Lucio's eyes, he was afraid of losing himself.
Morticia who hadn't spoken, she spoke with a surprised and excited voice.
"A new student... Wait, a Fairy? He's a Fairy? But weren't they extinct?" He asked with surprise now that she was looking at Lucio again, her gaze showed more interest in him.
When she heard that he was a new student, she was surprised, but when she heard that he was a fairy, she was even more surprised and excited.
"Can you show your wings so I can see them please?" Morticia asked excitedly as she looked at Lucio with a look full of curiosity and she got up from her seat to approach Lucio.
"Morticia, please calm down, I know you've always liked researching other species and learning everything about them, but you're not being respectful by asking for that kind of thing." Larrisa said and let out a soft sigh, she had said too much and ended up saying Lucio's career without realizing it in front of Morticia.
She had forgotten that Morticia was present, it seemed that even after so many years Morticia had not changed, she was still the same curious girl who loves to investigate everything about the other races.
"Huh?" Morticia upon listening to Larrisa realized her lack of common sense. Realizing that she had gotten lost in her own excitement of investigation, she flushed furiously with embarrassment.
"S-sorry, I was just curious to see your wings..." Morticia apologized to Lucio with an embarrassed voice and an apologetic look.
"No, no need to apologize, you can watch." Said Lucio and spread his Fairy wings.
Beautiful Fairy wings spread behind his back. They were a meter long and a meter and a half wide. They were transparent, but had multicolored reflections. They were a truly impressive sight that could fascinate anyone.
Well except one. Wednesday when she saw Lucio's wings she was a little surprised, but seeing the reflections of the wings she turned a little pale.
Morticia seeing Lucio's wings made her eyes shine with excitement and happiness. She looked like a little girl seeing a new toy.
She got behind Lucio and began to inspect the wings with curiosity, she subconsciously reached out her hand and began to touch them with her delicate hands.
"They are so soft..." She murmured lost as she touched Lucio's wings.
"Cough, my dear, I think that's enough. You can make the young man angry if you invade him so much." Gomez after seeing Morticia invading Lucio's personal space intervened. He wasn't upset with Morticia for how she was acting, he knew her very well and knew that she loved to investigate other different species in the world, and now that she had found one that was said to be extinct she could more or less understand the excitement of her
He himself was curious about Lucio's race, and knowing what his wife was like, he knew she must be jumping for joy to discover a new race to investigate.
He mainly intervened because he thought Lucio might get mad at Morticia for invading his personal space so much. He didn't want to imagine what would happen if they bothered a Fairy with the ability to control elements, even if she was a young Fairy it could be a catastrophe.
"Eh? Oh, haha, s-sorry I lost myself again." Morticia said embarrassed and with a bit of fear in her tone, this time she moved away from Lucio, fearing that she might get lost again and make a mistake by angering Lucio.
*Gulp*
Morticia swallowed audibly, this time with a little fear as she remembered the stories of the Fairies. Although Fairies are good beings and they don't like to provoke people, but if they were provoked and even worse, if you angered a Fairy... It could be the last day of your life, because you would have a horrible death.
She remembered the history of the Fairies very well, they were good beings, but if you angered one it could be a disaster, the Fairies in ancient times were not only recognized for their unstoppable armies but because they were very sadistic when killing.
Imagining that she could end up like the description they said in the books, burned alive by the fire element of the fairies, drowned by their water, impaled by the earth, torn to pieces by the wind, or have her eyes melted by the light... I inhale a breath of cold air and I hope I haven't angered Lucio.
"Don't worry, she can play all she wants, I don't care. I can see that she's very curious about my race. If she likes to research all races, it means she must know a lot about them, I'll let her research about me, after all I don't know much about my race and I could use someone who wants to know more about my race."
"With your help and with a lot of luck I could find my parents if I know more about myself." Lucio said as he looked at Morticia and said the last part with some sadness in her voice, everyone could feel her sadness and the hope that one day she would be able to find her parents.
"Really? In order to meet your parents, would you let me investigate you?" Morticia asked to confirm with an excited and somewhat surprised voice, after all not many people are in favor of a person investigating them.
"Yes, you can." Lucio said with a soft smile.
'What determination... letting a stranger investigate you just to be able to find a trace about your parents...' Morticia thought and looked at Lucio with a determined look.
"Good. I swear by my name that I am Morticia Addams that I will help you learn more about your race and I will help you investigate the whereabouts of your parents." Morticia said with a serious voice and you see her excited.
Lucio smiled upon hearing her and nodded towards Morticia, then made her wings disappear.
Although normal people would think that Lucio should be a fool to let Morticia investigate him, but for Lucio this was a chance to get closer to her. Besides, there would be no problem with her investigating it.
He knew Morticia's character very well and he knew that she would not try to dissect him or harm him, she would only explore his powers, his abilities and so on, he also knew that thanks to this he could get closer to Morticia.
He knew that she was still innocent, and he would take full advantage of this.
Imagining the scenarios that could occur, he smiled wickedly to himself.
