Chapter 21 - Chapter 21

"Oh, it looks like our time is over, well your homework will be to write up a report about the layout of the mana core, you'll find all the information you need in the library.", and with that, she leaves the class.

 

Well that was… a lot, it didn't help that I was forced to watch as everyone around me was writing with their little quills whilst I was there, trying to shove all that into my brain. I really need to go to that library.

 

While I'm heading out of the class I recall the dimwits. I don't know if I should go, what would Ustos do? Who am I kidding, of course, the idiot would go, that man has so little spine that it's a miracle that he is able to stand upright at all. *sigh Why is everyone besides me so useless.

 

First I should feed ustos and return the notebook and quill I didn't end up using to the apartment.

 

After eating some food and giving some to Ustos, I head out to face the dimwits.

 

Heading to the spot I prepare myself to be beaten up. Making it there I find dimwits number 1 through 3 standing there, look at them there just so sad. Whatever, let's get this over with.

 

As I get close to them, one of them starts using the 5 neurons in their little head to create actual sentences. How surprising.

 

"Ahh, Ustos you finally came, you know it's as bad to see you as always." number 2 says whilst menacingly walking towards me. I slowly start walking backward in mock fear.

 

Eventually, he makes it close enough to grab me by my shoulders. I barely, BARELY, manage to hold myself back from harming this man, for even daring to touch my graceful shoulders and attempting to darken the light of my greatness, but I held it back, barely.

 

"You know I've been thinking about something." He opens his annoying mouth again, whilst he shoves his dirty knee into my stomach. I fall onto the ground acting like his pathetic blows mean something.

 

"You got off reel easy with that burned face, if I were in your father's shoes I'd done something much worse to you, let alone let you into this academy, but alas he is too blinded by your useless nature, to see the true pathetic parasite you are," he says whilst kicking me whilst I'm down.

 

"N-No your wro–".

 

"Shut the fuck up! You will not speak until I tell you to! Do you understand!?" He says whilst grinding my arm against his leg and the hard ground.

 

"Yes, yes! I understand! I'm sorry!".

 

He punches me in the face.

 

"I said, do you understand!?"

 

I franticly start nodding.

 

"Good.".

 

" So, I thought I'd correct this little error of the Ustos household." He says crouching down to my eye level, whilst dimwits numbers 1 and 3 approach, like the disposable extras that they truly are.

 

"Until you stop disgracing this academy, your little household, and even yourself by leaving this place and taking your disgusting mess of a face with you, I won't stop doing this.".

 

"You won't stop coming here, and if you do I will force you to. I will grind your pathetic face into the ground every single day, so many times that you will be begging your wimp of a father to take you out of this esteemed academy and finally letting everyone in this place breathe a sigh of relief!" he says that whilst pressing his dirty shoes against the back of my head.

 

He looks at me in disgust saying "Come on let's go, leave this little asshat to stew in his own pathetic nature.". He gives a final kick to the ribs and walks off.

 

I am very mad. This, this little baster with his little ensemble thinks that he can make my great mind fold! How dare he truly, how dare he. I will, I will– no, I need to calm down he's just playing along with my plan, I'm not here to cause trouble to these idiots no matter how much they deserve it.

 

But still, this is a problem, there is no way I can see this solved. The only real way is to get friends who support me and will fight back against these dimwits. But no, I'm Jeldard Ustos the bastard of the Ustos household, nobody wants anything to do with me.

 

I can't kill them because the academy will find out; I can't kidnap them because their disappearance will actually matter, and I can't fight back because I don't know what kind of political power they have, maybe they could just show the headmaster or someone a bruise and they will just kick Ustos out. So annoying.
