" Aaah, alright alright i take it back, stop biting me already .
Never in my wildest dreams would have i accepted the calm, well mannered rish girl in front of me to do this, i had to give up continuing to argue with her, her teeth were quite strong .
Seeing that i already gave up, after using more bite force one last time, she finally let go of my hand .
I looked at the teeth mark and thought to myself that instead of an alien she appeard to resemble a wild animal, sensing the the temperature around us beginning to drop once more, i removed this thought of my mind completely, or else i really might catch a cold from all the changes in the temperature or worse i will put myself at risk of being bitten again .
I was still able to see that there was a faint shadow of a smile on her face, but that completely disappeared when all the people around us start applauding, rendering the two of us to look at each other confusedly, unable to comprehend the reason these guys were applauding us for .
But luckily the confusion didn't last for long, after the rounds of applaud came to finally stop, i saw Tanaka appearing in front of the other students while pointing at us and saying :
I don't know much about Kuroma, but i will still try hard to guide all of you, but i believe that we have two good Kuroma on our class that you should be able to learn a lot from both of them, their sparring just now was wow just wow, it is very assuring to have the two of them here with us, be sure to ask them for advice if you were to face any problems, but don't be a bother alright .
So that what was going on, they thought that we were sparring against each other and from the looks of it, they seem to have enjoyed the show to their heart content .
The moment the words of the teacher fell, swarms of students headed in my way both girls and boys began to circle around me, completely discarding the last words the teacher said about trying not to be a bother and disregarding of the fact that they were beginning to be a bother .
I looked at the place where Shizuno where and so that she was pushed aside by the swarm of the students, i looked at her and began to envy her expressionless cold face that acted as a quite the deterrent in this kind of situation .
I was asked all sorts of questions, like tell us the name of the spell you just used, what was the incantation of the said spell, how can they be able to use the same spell, some began to ask about how to control their Mana and basic questions about what did my spell exactly did .
I mostly had no idea about how to answer most of these questions, but i tried my best to satisfy their curiosity, some of the girls even began to ask for me to teach them in private, but a cough from Shizuno was enough to freeze that thought of hers instantly .
I was beginning to get mentally tired about all of that was happening around me, after all this was my first time of being popular like this, she was able to notice that i was beginning to feel uncomfortable and helped me with that, so i was very grateful for that .
I called Tanaka to help as things were beginning to escalate to the point that it was no longer the other Kuromas asking me questions but even the Shiroganes began to join in as well .
But one look at his face and i understood that it was useless waiting for that guy to come and help, if anything i believe that he was using this chance to get some payback .
I ended in answering most of the questions that i had answers on, the incantation of Paradox was given to them, but not even a single person out of the entire class was able to use it, making some of them believe that i was tricking them or something .
I was also amazed by the fact that not a single person was able to use Paradox, after seeing their uncertain eyes, i was not going to stupidly activate Paradox just for the fun of it, learning from yesterday lesson, i just decided to remain silent against their inquiring gazes which ended in angering most of the male students .
I felt no need to prove myself by activating the spell and taxing my Mana, so i would have just accepted the situation as it is, not willing to risk my anger flaring up suddenly .
I have only was able to calm down slightly due to the fact that i kept remembering that precious smile that i kept on seeing since i was a kid and Shizuno helped too i think .
Surprisingly, the quiet girl once again came to my rescue, she said :
You unable to use it, doesn't mean that he is lying to you, you all may be just Incompatible with it .
I can't help but wonder about whether to call that a rescue or throwing yourself under the fire, i really can't seem to grasp what that girl was thinking by saying all that in a nonchalant attitude like that .
Although what she said was indeed correct, the way she said it gave a complete different meaning to her words, even though i could tell that she didn't mean to sound so brazen, but that was how she normally talk, i couldn't help but seeing a unique resemblance between her and Renjuu Satsuki, for some reason i found her glaring from afar, while her Mana began to flare up .
The crowds seeing her like this, all began to retreat, thinking that this time they were the target, they swallowed their dissatisfaction and hurried away .
Tanaka was about to meddle in, but the bell rang indicating that the class was over, so everyone began to change back to their school uniforms and they got out of the Training Arena building .
The next course was surprisingly science, it was surprising due to the fact that i thought this school was fully focused on refining and improving the strength of the students, so it was surprising that other school subjects were available here as well .
Seeing my bewilderment, Shizuno began to introduce me to the fact that not everyone who would want to graduate from this school will choose to do so as a savior, i somewhat was able to comprehend what she was saying and i do agree with her .
Not everyone would be willing to risk themselves for others or for the good, those were nothing but catchy phrases, if i didn't need to make the best use of this opportunity, i would have ended likely in joining an elite school with my marks, there would have been no problem for me to get a scholarship, but now that a chance like enrolling in this school was presented to me, i couldn't let an opportunity like this to pass by .
Not if i wanted to have enough power and influence to detere those that meant me or my dear ones harm, especially That bastard of a Man that was allegedly my father .
On the battlefield those catchy phrases won't help you when you are being attacked by a monstrous Metaphysical that wanted nothing but to devour you, the savior job wasn't a job that everyone can do and take .
For that an alternative kind of education needed to be imbued by the school, from there subjects like Math, Science, Literature and other lot of subjects were introduced, listening to Shizuno explaining the school arrangements for those who don't want to be Saviors, i couldn't help but wonder what exactly would they do with the powers that were in the hands of those who were unwilling to become Saviors .
I imagined one of the Kuroma working at a bank or anywhere else and in fit of rage, he use his Dark Arts to raise the whole building to the ground, but that wasn't probably the case .
She apperantly was very informative about this and she said that even Saviors can't have time or the mind to do everything in life, there was something similar to a logistic department for those who didn't want to be a Savior, Doctors, Engineers, they can seek all sort kinds of careers, they can even choose whether to work under the influence of the government or decide against this .
But they will still have to sign a few documents, regulating the use of their powers and some documents that binds them to the ranks of the Saviors if there would ever be a need for them to join the battlefield, at that i couldn't help but wonder who thought of this well suited arrangements, the government was really wise in dealing with this situation .
[ P.s ( I'm waiting for my Japanese passport, lol ) ] .
So that was the reasons to why Akane Academy had different educational curricula, as i was thinking of this i felt a tug on my sleeve, i already know who was the one behind it .
Shizuno was looking at me as she asked about what i had recalled before, i already completely forgot that we had that kind of conversation before, anyway i seeing her curiosity being piqued, i told her that i recalled my name in my past life .
She got more curious and asked me about what i used to be called back then, i told her that i didn't have a surname all that i went by with the name Lucius .
She looked at me absent-mindedly for a few seconds, but soon her eyes regained their focus and clarity, before she nod her head with a somewhat more weird look than usual on her face .
I asked what was going on with her just now, but she just said that she was lost in thought, i was able to tell that she wanted to change the subject so i didn't press her about this matter any further .
Seeing that the topic of our conversation was over and the scene began to become a bit awkward, i asked her about from who and why she got the Witch Of The Netherworld epithet ? .
My question caught her off guard for a fraction of a second, but soon her complexion returned to normal, i was keenly able to notice that minimal shift in her expression, her reaction was identical to yesterday, she first tried to deny it, but i could feel how troubled she was from looking at her eyes .
I told her that i don't much about between what was going between her and Moroha, but after having sparred against her just now i believe that her title was indeed well fitting .
Her Mana was cold just as her spells were, it gave the feeling of standing in front of a block of ice, but that coldness in her Mana still held a tint of warm to it, i had a suspicion about this since i heard about it yesterday, but i felt that it was none of my business at that time, so i didn't pursuit it any further .
Seeing that her expressionless face wasn't working as she wanted, she sighed a bit tiredly and confessed that i was indeed correct and that The Witch Of The Netherworld was her, I asked her directly why she didn't want Moroha to know of that .
She didn't respond at first, but after a few seconds as she then shook her head and replied to my question with a question, asking me about how did i think that Moroha know of that epithet of hers .
It surprised me due to the fact that i was already aware that he shared a past life with Renjuu Satsuki as Fraga and that was the reason he was able to know and even call her by her name .
But then how was he able to know the epithet of Shizuno in her past life, was all the three of them lived in the same world in their past lives, how much of a huge coincidence was that .
I told her about my guess and she seeing that my line of thought was wrong, corrected me with saying that they weren't living in the same world .
Hearing her saying this and she doesn't seem to be faking it, i began to look for a logical explanation to why he knew of her epithet, after all if they were from different world, timelines, or even different galaxies, how could it be possible for him to gain knowledge of that piece information .
Unless he was alive there in her world, but this just didn't seem to make any sense, how can a person live in the same time in two different worlds unless no that doesn't sound right, i was able to finally have a theory that could make a little bit of sense to all of this, but that theory that i had was more illogical than the predicament that i was trying to make some sense off .
I concluded that Haimura Moroha may have had two past lives, but that in itself was something impossible for me to imagine, not to mention the viability of something like this to happen, the time his soul needed to endure being grind by the sands of time and still being able to reincarnate successfully was just completely out of the mind .
I was unclear of how was i even able to reach that conclusion, but for some reason it just felt right, after i told her about my conclusion, i first thought that she will find them ridiculous, but no the moment i told her about this weird conclusion of mine, she just stared at me piercingly without doing or saying anything else to refute me .
I almost screamed out the words " He Had Two Past Lives, but she already seemed to have expected my reaction and covered my mouth with her hands, i regained my composure a second later and told her that she can remove her hands now .
I was standing there completely bewildered at the fact that the ridiculous conclusion that i myself wasn't sure about its viability, being confirmed by Shizuno unrefuted reaction .
A person soul so strong that it was able to stand the grinding from the sands of time for a hundred thousand year, when this soul able to successfully reincarnate then that soul would be called a Savior, a powerful soul that wielded a huge sum of power .
A person soul getting to reincarnate once was already beyond imagination, but getting to reincarnate three times, how powerful was that person soul to be able to achieve something incomprehensible like that .
I asked her about it, but she didn't answer, i told her that i would ask the principal about it later and seeing that she was just pointlessly stalling for time, she decided to finally answer me, her response was quite short, even calling it short wasn't covering it, her answer consist of two words :
ANCIENT DRAGON .
