Chapter : 32 : Oh My ! I Would Like To Know About It As Well :
Location : Kingdom Of Valerion :
The capital city of the kingdom is surrounded by various small towns and villages spanning hundreds of miles in distance.
These places acted as a supply spot between the capital city and the other territories of the kingdom .
Most of the supplies and people coming to the capital city must stop at one of these towns and check their identity and merchandise before they are permitted towards the capital .
And when they are in the capital they are checked once again to make sure they have been following the process clearly .
It is a strict and daily routine to ensure the safety of the capital city .
However even then there are multiple times when gaps appear .
And this gaps are often used by those against the kingdom .
Especially the one's wanting nothing but chaos .
Location : Unknown Dark Alley :
At this moment a group of two people were walking through the dark alley of one of the towns closest to the capital .
The dark alley was full of people sitting on the street, some looking at each other and the sky absent mindedly as if they couldn't feel the world around them .
On the other hand some people were going around with tattoos and sticks in their hands , acting as some kind of local gang taking money and beating up some unfortunate people .
However none of them dared to stop the two people in front and let them go .
It was as if by default there every sense screamed that those to were dangerous and coming in their way will mean end .
So it was better for them to not engage with such people .
And ask for the two people in dark hoodies they did not give any attention to these people and continued to walk forward while continuing to talk to each other .
" Is everything ready yet ? "
" It's almost done . "
" Then we need to complete it fast before the lord loses his patience . "
" Just a few more days and we will enter the capital city . "
They looked towards the distant capital city and its towering buildings and a number of caravans going towards the capital city as trade bloomed in the region .
There was an essence of happiness among every resident in the way showing the prosperity of the kingdom .
But even after looking at this picture there was no hint of admiration or awe in their eyes.
Instead the only thing that could be seen was disdain as if looking at lower insects who were nothing more than heretics .
" Let these fools live their peaceful life because soon they will not see that . "
" And then the entire capital will shake in our hands . "
With that final sentence they left the area and vanished in dark alleys of the city again .
Although no one knew what exactly they were planning .
But whatever it was , one thing is obvious .
That dear Cian would have be involved in the matter whether he likes it or not .
Location Change : Valerion Academy : Cian's Classroom :
At this moment within the classroom the last and the final person among the teacher's group had already taken the stage and was giving her speech .
She was a beautiful woman with a voluptuous body that could attract any man in the room to the point that many felt their heartbeat rising fast.
Even women couldn't help but admire her beauty and well proportioned curves .
While the beauties like Elera and Delia were good looking and had a very good figure but they fell short compared to this mature beauty in front .
However Cian's attention was not attracted by this beauty as it was somewhere else entirely .
' Alopea Runar . '
The name of the beautiful woman at the front was Alopea Runar .
And yet she was not present in front of them right now .
Wait ? She is not present yet the same person was giving a speech in front of everyone right now .
How is that possible .
It is possible because the woman in front of everyone at this moment is not the real Alopea .
' Instead it is a summoning fox beast specialising in illusion magic . '
Yes ! The one infront is actually not the real person but instead it is a Fox beast specializing in illusion magic .
And the real person was actually outside the gates of the classroom .
Well if you want to understand the situation then it is better to give you the description of a person at the centre of it .
Alopea Runar the teacher for summoning magic in the academy .
She would play a major role in the story as the teacher for Liora in summoning magic .
And as a summoner at an early stage of the Avatar rank she was one of the most capable teachers in the academy .
What made her distinct was her personality .
In the series she was viewed as a person with a fox like personality especially due to her cunning nature .
An exact opposite to her future student Liora .
And this was also reinforced by the fact that her favourite and most trusted someone in throughout the series were fox magical beasts .
In fact one of the biggest mysteries of the series was that her eyes had a fox-like appearance .
And it was never stated that whether it was a genetic trait that she had from birth or something she eventually evolved due to her close association with the fox magical beasts
However many confused her cunning and sometimes self serving personality as an evil nature .
But that is not true at all .
In fact she would be one of the biggest supporters for Liora in her journey and despite their personalities being far apart from each other she would treat her like a daughter.
Yes ! There were times when her actions were not something you would consider heroic and once in the future part of the story this also caused a rift to occur between her and Liora .
But at the end of the day she was always cared for her student .
And her personality was not because she was bad by nature but it was because of her tragic past that left her emotionally scarred and insecure .
Moreover despite being self serving and a little selfish she never did anything that can be called truly evil and remained a good teacher to Liora and teaching her everything she can .
' Infact she did teach Liora more than just summoning magic . '
Thinking about it small blush appeared on Cian's face .
' She was also her teacher in the art of .... Attracting attention . '
' Especially from the boy you love using .... * cough* * cough* special tactics . '
From clothing styles to various kinds of other ideas she would be the mastermind behind everything .
Even the date where Liora almost confessed to Zeal Cloudseaker was also designed and help by Alopea Runar .
And whether or not it was successful was a different matter altogether but at least she tried her best .
And it also gave few of the best rom-com scenes of the series .
' And she did look quite beautiful in those Bunny dresses . '
Just thinking about that scenario of Liora in a bunny dress brought some indescribable excitement in his heart .
' Should I buy her some of those .... '
' No... Definitely not now. I will have to wait for sometime . '
' But it will happen in the future for sure . '
* Cough * * Cough * .... Coming back to the main topic , in the original story Alopea Runar was known for her mischievous activities .
This included pulling such tactics of small illusions to see if there are any talented student who can see through the illusion .
Although the possibility was very low it was exactly how she noticed Liora for the first time in the original story .
' In fact the illusion magic used here itself is not something very special and is just a basic one . '
But the problem is that to most of the students here, even the one like the second prince and Delia Steelheart who were well trained for their age , it was almost impossible to tell .
And if not for the fact that Cian already knew the plot he would not have noticed anything unusual either .
After all, they are just students and don't know much about illusion magic or anything .
So right now except for the teachers and Cian only one student in the room understood this situation .
" Cian.... Do you think that lady over there looks a little strange? "
Obviously the person who noticed them was his dear sweetheart Liora .
As a talented person in summoning magic she had a very unique talent of distinguishing between summoned magical beasts and sensing their presence .
This ability allowed her to make better bonds with her summoned magical beasts and helped her advance in ranks quicker than the most .
In fact one of her unique abilities would actually allow her to talk to various kinds of magical beasts even if they is not summoned by her .
However this ability was not omnipotent or without any flaws as don't be allowed a vague sensation at first and it has been shown to be honorable to careful planned manipulation if the user is not careful and smart enough .
In fact anyone with much training and a higher level of understanding can do the same as well .
The real difference was that Liora had a high attitude for this kind of power and she could do what would take other's years to train .
" Yes ! That's an illusion used by a summoned magical beast . "
At this moment Liora looked at him in shock .
While she felt that there was something wrong but never to this point .
But more importantly how did Cian know these details?
Liora always knew that she was special in this regard .
While in her home town the local lord had a summoner among his rank .
And whenever she could she would try to play with those summoned beasts .
And whenever she was sad she would either tell it to her family or when they are busy she would go to find her magical beast friends .
One day the summoner saw this happening and quickly understood her talent .
It was then that she was given the support to go to the academy as they believed her future as a summoner would be excellent .
' Does Cian also has the same ability as mine . '
Unable to keep this question to her heart anymore she decided to ask .
" Cian how did you know ? "
But just as Cian was about to answer a sweet and seductive voice came from behind .
" Oh dear ! I would like to know about it as well . "
