Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 Day in the life

LUCAS WYKES

I glare at Feyrtith the boy is taller than me with long blond hair and blue eyes he is more of a pretty boy than a handsome lad. It is the likes of him who will be the cannon fodder of the upcoming war.

"Like I said." I say with authority. "Once Arthur's ready he can come to me and get back what is his." 

Feyrith is not satisfied but he knows he can't take me on. 

'Bruv why wont this dickhead fuck off already.' I drawl inwardly. 

"And." Jamie says interjecting the tall elf shifted his gaze to my cousin. "That one should apologize to Arron." Jamie points a finger at Kathyln. I raise an eyebrow at him but he merely shrugged. 

I sighed. "I understand that Arron said something that offended you princess but....he did not deserve to be struck especially by someone he can't properly defend himself against without having his entire house getting destroyed from root to stem." 

I let the statement hang between the four of us. Although Kathyln is a fellow student she is still a princess with just one word to her father Arron's entire family could get annihilated and that would cause another war between the elven and human kingdoms.

'So these Dicathenians haven't experienced 2 world wars like us earthlings that's actually mad brav.' I think to myself in wonder at the surprising stability of this continent. 

I look at the 2 disciplinary committee members one last time and turned my back and started walking away. Jamie followed beside me I can practically feel Feyrith's burning gaze on my back.

"That princess is quite strange." Jamie says. "Oh how so?" I asked already knowing the answer.

"You see my father." He began. "Taught me how to read people so that I could someday play the game of politics in a high level." He paused as if almost dumbfounded. 

"But....when it comes to princess Kathyln I can't even grasp what words will come out of her royal mouth let alone what she could be thinking about." Jamie scratched the back of his head in pure exasperation. 

But I merely chortled. 

"And here I thought you were going to say you thought she was quite ripe." 

Jamie merely grimaced. 

"No matter how ripe the peach.....its not worth it if it is being guarded by a bloodydamn world lion." 

I chuckle at that knowing the meaning of his words.

I continued with the rest of my classes that day meeting with Jamie and Arron for lunch and making sure to keep in touch with the young lick-spittles of Xyrus academy.

'I hate these entitled little shits.' 

None of these brats have anything going for them so I have given them values they should live by simple things like honouring one's last name, not bullying peasants because that is what lessers do, keeping friendly with elves and dwarves because they are our fellow Dicathenians and we must unite in order to conquer the recently discovered continent. 

To some it up the rich and powerful like the idea of being considered society's good shepherd so the same should be said for these nobles.

I continue my uneventful life as a student at Xyrus academy attending classes completing my physical training. And without me knowing it I had completed my first week at Xyrus and I was starting another week of school.

"Kill me!!" Jamie says 

"Fuck!!! I hate my life lads." Arron echoes Jamie sentiment. 

'This is why I fucking!!! hate school.' I think to myself with pure anger.

I am nearly done with my first day of my second week at Xyrus academy. But the is a different feeling to the academy now a...smell of piss if you will. 

Said smell of piss would be the work load I and other students are finding frustrating. 

'But a fella can do fuck all about the work load chap.' I tell myself.

Currently Jamie and Arron are escorting me to my last class which is team fighting mechanics in truth the two lads are merely trying to delay their dreadful last classes.

As we made our way to the field where my last class would be held a savage aura caught my attention. I quickly adjusted my posture and scanned my surroundings.

Then I saw him walking towards mee with righteous fury burning in his azure eyes, his auburn hair waving by the speed of his own movement. His aura caused Arron and Jamie to take a few steps back.

I STAY ICE COLD!! I walked forward without hesitation ready for the fight of my life. 

"Aren't you looking good." I say smiling at Arthur.

"My sword." He said with a icy tone.

I cocked my ear at him. "What did you say?"

However Arthur's eyes never leave mine. As I slowly take dawn's ballad out of my dimension ring. His eyes narrowed slightly.

"Its a beauty is it not." I taunt swinging the blade around.

"I will give you ten seconds.....and if you don't return my sword in that time you'll regret it." Arthur says deadpan. 

'Wow did this fella just threaten me while sounding like he was just talking about the weather tsk fucking cunt.' 

But I do respect him more now because he understands that my weapon is provocation.

'And provocation is an art perfected by predators like me.' 

But even I know when not to provoke someone stronger than me. So I extend dawns ballad to Arthur with a smile.

"Come now man I merely joke there's no need to be so cold....words are nothing but sounds coming out of our mouths...if one wishes to judge their fellow men they ought to use their actions rather than their words." 

I extend my other hand towards him in a sign of good will. He ignores my free hand instead he takes his blade without a second thought but it was not in an aggressive manner he doesn't even sneer at me but he does regard me with a bit pf curiosity.

'He really does carry himself like a King.' 

"How's the princess?" I ask him softly this time as if there's a safe way of patting a tiger.

"She's doing well thanks to the.....healers." He lies with a straight face. 

'...Wow what lying cunt and fuck you I saved your bitch from dying.' I think to myself in pure disgust. With the way Arthur lied just now he reminded me of the politicians of earth. 

'Those old cunts.'

But I see through the lie I know Tessia situation well she is physically fine of course but her beast will is acting up which is all part of Agrona's plan of course.

But.

'Not my bird not my problem.' 

Arthur will take care of it I shift my gaze over to Arron and Jamie and smile. 

"I'll be fine lads you can had on out of here now."

Feeling slightly embarrassed for being caused to act like pussies because of Arthur's aura Arron and Jamie purposely walk slowly toward the exit of the grass field. 

I notice that Arthur is still looking at me I raise an eyebrow at him and shake my head.

"I am not going to pick a fight with you if that's what you're thinking." 

He shakes his head with a smirk on his face. "No its just that I didn't believe Emily when she said you were.....decent." Arthur says sounding genuinely surprised.

I scratch the back of my head not knowing what to say then professor Glory's voice interjected.

"I am glad to see you two boys getting along." Professor Glory says with a bright smile. 

'She's sexy still.' I think to myself with grin.

"Oh my Mr Wykes are you happy to be in my class?"

"What!!?" I exclaimed in confusion.

"You're grinning like fool." Arthur says with a mocking smile. 

Then I realised what he meant.

'Fuck I was caught lacking.' 

After my team fighting mechanics class I headed over to my dorm. On my way there I ran into someone I have been looking for.

'Hello Nico boy.'

Standing right in front of me is a black-haired boy who looks to be the same age as me his eye the colour of dark iron. He glares at me from behind his glasses his eyes stern.

"...Oh hello old friend I didn't expect you to be attending Xyrus academy as well." I say with a smile.

But Elijah merely snorted. "You're no friend of mine you spineless ass." 

I chuckled. "Come now man I was young and afraid back then and also....tell your masked friend that I said I was sorry for what I did." 

He looks at me for a moment before he spat. 

"Tell that to the dead." He says walking pass me.

'Well I at least tried.' 

I think to myself as I open the door to my dorm room. 

'We are heading of to an expedition to a bloodydamn dungeon in three weeks so I need to breakthrough to the light-yellow stage before that.' 

Since Jamie hadn't made it yet I decided to seat in a lotos position on my bed to begin the long process of refining my mana core. 

"Fucking hell I'm really in a bloodydamn fantasy world."
