Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Talk with Arthur

[Arthur's POV]

"What a cozy house."Zerox said as he was checking out Ryujin's house.

"That is true."It was a two storey house had a nice garden and every design of it was intruging.

As we were admiring his house,Ryujin opened the door." Please.Come inside" Ryujin asked us. He pointed at the sofa and we sat there.

He bought us a glass of water each.He definetly knew how to treat guests."So what brings you here?" Ryujin asked us.

"First of all I would like to thank you for saving my life."I thanked sincerely.

"Welcome" Ryujin replied to me with a staright face. He didnt try to be too humble

"However you saved me as well so thanks." Ryujin said to me with a gentle smile.

"Can I ask who is the man beside you?"Ryujin asked while looking at Zerox.

Zerxo fixed his attire and then with a bow he inteoduced himself" I am Zerox, Mr Arthur's butler."

"Nice to meet you Mr Zerox."

"I dont think you guys are just here to chat with me. Lets just get to the main point."

Ryujin said while taking a sip of water.

He had already read our intent so we cut to the chase." I want you to attend Astrik School. I saw your name on the examine's list.The entrance exam occured the same day the attack happened and you couldn't give the exams."

"However I have seen what you are capable of

so you can attend the academy without any problem."

Ryujin sighed. He then looked at me and said" Actually I didnt want to attend the academy. My freinds forced me to fill the exam form.I ran to Sunset city beacuse they would come to my house to pick me up. I never had any intention to join the academy."

I was shocked. I looked at Zerox he also couldnt believe what he had just heard.Astrik Academy is the dream school for every aspiring hero. The acceptance rate is so low but this guy decides to run way despite having such potential.

Zerox asked" Can you tell us why you dont want to attend our academy?"

Ryujin shrugged him shoulder and then said"I have just dont like school. Sit in a chair listen blah blah. Do assignemnts that dont even matter.Just too much work."

I face palmed. This guy is unpredictable. He really just does what he wants to do.Even if I were to pursue him somehow I know he would reject me.

"I am wondering Arthur how did you recover so fast?"Ryujin asked me. He probably is trying to change the topic.

"You are forgetting that I am an SS-rank hero. I recovered within a day." Wait a minute I remember something. I can pursue him if i do this.

I said to him" Ryujin we have lots of book regarding Rune Magic in our library. Though the books are only allowed for some people. I will give you full authorization to view the books."

Ryujin looked at Zerox. I assured him" Zerox knows your the Rune Mage and he swear on his name that he won't tell anyone."

"You really think I will join the school for some books." My plan failed. I looked at Zerox. His expression was telling me(Was that the best you could do?)

This bastard.Why don't you come up with a brilliant idea then.

Ryujin then stared at something. He wasnt staring at us but at the air. This guy is weird .

Ren touched him forehead as if he was thinking about something.He then said" I will join the academy."

"What why did you change your decision?" I asked him. I was sure he would join the academy but what made him change his decision?

"I cannot tell you that but dont worry I don't have any ill intention."

"Dont worry we trust you." Zerox replied to him in a heartbeat. After I told Zerox what Ryujin did in the battle, he started to trust Ryujin.

"There is also another reason I didnt want to attend the academy. You see only few people know I am the rune mage. I dont want to reveal my identity. Otherwise the school could be in danger."

That is true. If people knew he was the Rune Mage the demon cultists might try to attack the school.

"However I can perfectly cast a sensor barrier if you allow me to cast it." Ryujin added to his reason.

"ok" both Zerox and I agreed immediately. Having a sensor barrier made from him would be a big boost for the acadmey. It would make oursecurity even stronger as sensor barrier isnt easy to cast unless you know Rune language.

" There is something I want in the academy."Ren started to state his condition.

" I want a big room. I have three pets."

I nodded to his request.

"Second I want you to give me permission to leave school dorms any time I want."

The Astrik Academy had dorms. We had certain rules at the dorm. You had to be in you dorm before 8 pm.

I thought for a while then answere him" Is it because you are part of the Atropis." He nooded. Everyone knew the Rune mage was a member of Aropis.

"Though it might be hard but I will allow it."

"Thanks"

"No need to thank us but I also have a condition.You will be enrolled to S class."

Ryujin didnt show any expression. He probably would have known he would be assigned to the S class.

"And also you will only attend the Acadmey one week after the academy starts."I added to my condition.

"But why?" Ryujin asked me while tilting his head.

"You will know that thing when you attend the acdemy."

"Fine "As he said that we shook hands.

Me and Zerox got up . "Perpare the school unifrom."as we said that we got out of his house.

We got inside our car and we could see Ryujin waving at us. What a sweet kid. Zerox was still smiling.

I asked him"What are you smiling for?"

Zerox kept smiling.He said" Ryujin is strong. Vey strong.He has the attitude of someone who is invincible. He just might be the missing factor of this golden generation or should I say the one who will lead this generation."

"Hahaha! That was a spot on analogy. We now having a sleeping dragon in our school. Once the dragon decides to come out humanity is going to change."

[Ryujin's POV]

After Arthur and Zerox left. I sat down and looked at the system window. While we were in the middle of talking the system showed me a message.

[If Ryujin is to attend the Academy then 95% of the process to save the world will be completed.]

After I saw that I decided to attend the school. 95% was a lot of progress. Saving the world wasnt my plan but if the world is destroyed where will I go. I may not be able to save everyone but I will try to save people as I live my life.

As i was thinking, the system showed me a series of message.

[Fate has been changed again.. Please guide the world to a path of peace and prosperity.]

[We pray that he who fights you may have an easy death]
