February 12, 1808.
Four years had passed, and Xavier was now seven years old. Now in his fourth year of attending the Pennsylvania Royal Academy, he had formed numerous new friends.
On a Monday morning, early in the morning, Jonathan yelled at Xavier to wake up and prepare for school.
Xavier woke up abruptly and checked the time on his clock.
It read 07:50 AM on the clock.
With just ten minutes left to get to school, Xavier was going to be late, and his heart fell to his stomach when he saw the clock.
Xavier thought to himself, "Miss Seo-Yeon is going to kill me," with fear.
In less than five minutes, Xavier got out of bed, brushed his teeth, and took a shower. He rushed downstairs, where Jonathan was preparing breakfast for the two of them.
Jonathan rinsed the dishes and remarked, "Oh, Xavier, hurry up and come eat, so you can get going to school already."
"I'm sorry, but I don't have time to eat dinner, Dad. When I get to school, I'll eat there," Xavier answered.
With that, Xavier ran out of the house and said, "Bye, Dad. See you later."
Jonathan smiled back and said, "Bye, son, have a great day at school."
Then, out of nowhere, Xavier returned, grabbing the egg sandwich Jonathan had made him, and said, "Oh, I forgot; let me grab this sandwich to eat on my way to school."
Then again, Xavier departed the house, uttering "Cya Dad."
Jonathan burst out laughing and replied, "Cya, Xavier.".
With just three minutes to spare, Xavier dashed to school and took The Visors of Time off. Then his deep, crimson eyes started to turn back to their natural color—cosmic eyes.
Xavier then started teleporting short distances from himself using his vector powers so he could get to school quickly.
Xavier heard the first school bell ring as soon as he reached the school gate. As a result, Xavier, using his gifted ability, changed the acceleration vector acting on his body and directed it forward, increasing both his movement and speed. A rush of force accelerated him in an instant, making him move much faster.
Xavier reduced the resistance that was attempting to stop him by adjusting the inertia vector. As he hit amazing speeds, his surroundings started to blur, and he carefully adjusted the friction vector to almost eliminate all the air resistance to nearly zero.
When students saw someone rush by quickly, they realized it was Xavier right away. As he went past, they all weaved at him, and Xavier smiled and waved back.
"He consistently arrives late," remarked a senior to their friends.
With a giggle, their friend said, "Well, that's Xavier for you."
Xavier moved the directional vectors with each step, making it easy for him to swerve through the school hallway.
As the second bell rang, Xavier was already at the door of his class as his classmates entered.
Jupiter exclaimed, "Oh, you're finally here!" as soon as he saw Xavier.
Xavier answered, "Yeah, I am here," while perspiring.
Jupiter questioned, "Why are you always late, bro?"
"No, I just overslept this time," Xavier replied.
Jupiter then said, "Mate, you always have an explanation for everything."
And Xavier answered with a smug expression, "Yeah."
Miss Seo-Yeon Park said to Xavier as he and Jupiter entered her classroom, "Oh, it seems like you're early this time, Xavier.".
"Miss Seo-Yeon, I am never late." Xavier grinned in response.
Miss Seo-Yeon then said, "Well, that's great!" in response.
With a menacing smile, she stated, "If you had been late, I would have told Instructor Joshua to increase your training regime."
Xavier answered nervously, "Yeah, lucky me."
Miss Seo-Yeon Park then started her history lesson while students were taking their seats.
"Okay, for today's subject, we'll be talking about the Great Race War.".
"To begin, the Great Race War was a war that began millions of years ago.".
"After the Four Great Races waged war against each other out of hatred and distrust for each other,".
"This war was a great and fierce one, as millions of people, including people from other races, had died in this mighty conflict.".
"But throughout this war, Gifteds were rarely on the battlefield, as during that period, Gifteds was a common enemy that the Four Races hated.".
"Because of how they abused their powers to treat the ungifted like slaves, killing and committing numerous crimes and war crimes.".
"But there was one gifted in particular that everyone knows, as their name had been carved into the history of creation.".
Jupiter raised his hands in curiosity, asking, "Who was that particular gifted?"
Miss Seo-Yeon Park responded with a more serious tone: "Their name was Julius von Audrius."
"Or otherwise known as The King of Malevelance, The Incarnate of Evil.".
Hearing his name made all of the students fearful and uncomfortable, as the air around them became darker.
"Julius von Audrius was infamous for being a chaotic creature of doom.".
"As everywhere he went, destruction and death would follow.".
"And what made him feared by all the races and many gifteds was that Emperor Julius would go around defeating and killing numerous Grand Herrschers and many gifteds off all stages for fun to entertain himself.".
Hearing the incredible things Julius von Audrius could do, students became engaged and interested in what Miss Seo-Yeon Park had to say about him.
Miss Seo-Yeon went on to say, "What made him virtually unbeatable was his abundance of abilities."
"He even possessed the ability to shoot a power beam of destruction from his eyes that would erase his opponents from existence.".
"And combined with the fact that he would randomly disappear for many centuries and suddenly come back, it made him an unstoppable force to reckon with.".
"How did he look?" a student questioned, raising their hands.
Miss Seo-Yeon responded, "Well, to begin with, he was human, but he completely broke his limiters, rejecting his humanity and becoming something beyond mortal capacities."
"With his new look, he had numerous markings all over his body, with the names of all his toughest opponents he had defeated on them. And he had yellow and dark crimson eyes, full of malice and evil."
"He was easily over 12 feet tall and dwarfed his opponents in battle. And he had a tremendously powerful build, which added to his threatening appearance."
"His skin was a dark silver color, with his hair being long and as white as cotton.".
The students were captivated by how powerful and menacing Emperor Julius von Audrius was portrayed.
Xavier inquired, "Miss Seo-Yeon, why do you call him Emperor Julius?"
Miso-Yeon replied, "Well, that's because he once, with his sheer power alone, took over the entirety of the Great Empire of Lithuania by himself.".
"Wow!" the students exclaimed in awe.
"And dawning his mighty Armor of Chaos and the multitude of ethereal instruments he had at his disposal, he quite easily becomes a renowned figure in history.".
A student said curiously, "And what happened to Emperor Julius?"
Miss Seo-Yeon answered: "Well, it came a time in history when numerous armies from different races allied against Emperor Julius, several millions of years after the Great War.".
"And during that battle between the alliance and Emperor Julius, many Grand Herrschers, patriarchs, and monarchs fought against Emperor Julius.".
"Before he was ultimately defeated by Saint Sebastian Akintola, after a hard and excruciating battle resulting in many soldiers' deaths,"
A student inquired, "Did you say, Akintola?"
Miss Seo-Yeon responded, "Yes, Akintola.".
"Saint Sebastian Akintola is the ancestor of your training instructor, Joshua Akintola," she added.
The students were left dumbfounded because they had no idea their instructor was a descendant of a great historical hero.
"Instructor Joshua is so cool, wouldn't you say, right?" Miss Seo-Yeon joked, blushing.
And the female students in the class nodded their heads in agreement.
Miss Seo-Yeon coughed briefly, regaining her composure, and said, "Anyway, to continue the topic about the Great Race War."
"It was abruptly stopped after the appearance of terrifying creatures known as the Varmint.".
"This creature came out of racked rifts and caused more terror and destruction than Julius the Harbinger of Havoc ever did.".
"These creatures would more frequently target Gifteds, causing many Gifteds to run and ask for aid from the ungifted.".
"And what made the Varmint more dangerous than Emperor Julius was the fact that they would come in different shapes and forms.".
"And their power would vary from one to another.".
"This means that one Varmint may appear on the same level as a Grand Herrscher or an Administrator."
"So their being able to randomly appear and be on the level of a Grand Herrscher or higher made them.".
One student inquired, "Did the four races ever unite to eliminate the Varmint?"
Miss Seo-Yeon responded, "Sadly, no."
"The only time the Four Races came together was to defeat the Chaotic Being, Emperor Julius.".
The pupils were startled to learn that, despite being capable of overcoming the unstoppable force, Emperor Julius the King of Malevelant. The four races declined to unite again to defeat a more powerful foe, the Varmint.
As Miss Seo-Yeon had finished speaking, the school bell rang. So their history classes were over, and they had an hour break.
