Chapter 91: 91: A Single Thought

Different from Heaven's Dawn, the weather in Nostria's region was more serene and calm despite the recent event. Everyone was doing their work and make a living like they always did.

The Academy was now more lively than ever before with a lot of new faces coming in and out. The rumors of Arcadia's defeat spread like wildfire to Nostria's neighboring kingdoms thus incite their youngsters to learn from the academy, especially since the new teachers there were directly involved in the war.

But one middle-aged man was sitting alone in his office looking gloomy despite the liveliness in the Academy. His black-gold robe was made out of a rare fabric, one that couldn't be found in the commoner's store. A single glance was enough to know that his origin was at the very least a noble of a kingdom.

The man repeatedly tapped the top of his desk with his fingers as a warm liquid slowly coming out of his creased forehead. His mouth opens and closes as he contemplated whether to speak up or not.

"Fuck!" shouted the man as he lifted his desk upside down, scattering the papers on top of it in the air along with his noble bearing. "Why the hell I have to sign all of these papers!"

*thud

It was as if nature answered the question, a name tag fell right on top of his head which engraved the word 'headmaster'. His mouth was twitching but there was nothing he could do to his situations.

The man was none other than the self-proclaimed badass uncle of Luna, Argeon the hidden headmaster of the academy.

With a sigh, he took the name tag on top of his head as he muttered, "You know, at least give me some motivation to sign all of these papers.". He slowly picking up the mess that he created as if the world's burden was on his shoulder.

"Huh?", one of the things on the floor caught his interest. It was a plain red-blood envelope but as he turned it around, his blood was rushing to his brain.

"Heh," His mouth slowly curled as he began to laugh, "HAHAHAHA!".

Outside of the room was a couple of young male students making their way through the corridor. "W-w-what was that?!" one of them asked. "I-I don't know, it was coming from that door over there", replied the other.

"Oh, it's the headmaster's room."

"Don't 'oh' me! That's the freaking headmaster's room!"

"That's what I just said!"

*tsk

"Don't you know, the headmaster rarely, I mean RARELY to the close point of NEVER, came to the academy. In fact, there exists more than forty whole class of our alumnus that never seen his face the entire time they spent here!"

*gulp

"So you mean it's a g-ghost? No way right, c'mon we're twenty-four years old already, we only need one year left to get out of here."

"You're right, let's pretend we never heard that and go to the cafeteria."

"HAHAHAHA!"

"Eek!", both of them shrieked while running frantically to the cafeteria. Thus the origin of one of the mysteries in the academy began.

Inside the castle was a devastatingly beautiful woman sitting on a marble chair. The grass and the flowers around her would dance as if praising her beauty and their fragrance of spring could even calm the strongest storm. The faint wind frequently fluttered her silver hair as she sipped the tea on the table.

Memories of her childhood days slowly resurface. There was the same scenery except for this time there was a handsome man, a beautiful silver-haired woman, and a cute little child not older than four years old. The man and the child were playing on the grass with a ball while the beautiful woman sitting on the familiar marble chair.

"C'mon father pass me the ball!! the ball!" waved the child with both hands.

"Okay, here I go, smash it as hard as you can!" said the man before slowly threw the ball.

*boom!

"Ah?" the beautiful woman covered her open mouth as she saw what happened. The little child frantically run to her and tucked her sleeves, "Mother, why is father crouching like that? Is he alright?"

The beautiful woman chuckled before wiping a little snot on the child's face with her napkin, "Sylviana, your father is alright, she is crouching like that because he admits defeat."

"Oh really?! Haha yay, I won! I won!" shouted the kid while jumping around.

"Your majesty, your majesty," A faint voice slowly woke Sylviana from her trance.

"Huh? What?" Sylviana looked around but there was no one there.

"Over here your majesty, It'me Parriot, I'm a bird."

The bird was on a branch of a peach tree nearby, it was the same kind of bird that flew to Heaven's Dawn. "The message has been delivered and I already scout their layout."

Sylviana stood up and gave a slight bow, "Thank you for assisting me in this ordeal, you are technically an outsider yet you guys helped us so much."

"Please think nothing of it, after all this was partly Ryo-,"

*Boom

Before he could finish the sentence he flew to the sky once more, except this time unwillingly. It took Sylviana a second to realize that Elaine was already in midair in the middle of a kick motion.

*thud

"Wow look at him go, must be my new personal record. Oh hey Sylvi! Wanna come with me? Let's go check if I beat my record or not," before Sylviana could answer anything she was already dragged to the city.

Hiding behind a nearby wall was a purple-haired woman wearing a maid dress. Her small mouth slowly curled up into a sweet smile, "In the end, you are too a human being, you always wanted a friend even when you said you never wanted to."

With a single deep breath, the bearing of the maid was no more and it was replaced by something more oppressive. A single thought to become a maid, a single thought to become a commander, this is Fei.
