The director of the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy, standing in front of their many professors, was a female Magus. This was well within Leylin's expectations but after scanning the crowd once he observed something odd. Even still he did ask immediately but rather he looked at somewhat familiar face of the director.
Leylin couldn't help but begin to inspect her features closely. She had long, wavy blonde hair and a doll-like face. Her starlike eyes, small stature with some baby fat remaining on her face making the woman whose skin was as pale as snow seem lovable and adorable. Materialised spiritual force at the peak of rank 2 was being emitted clearly from her body.
Leylin could easily see her energy undulations were different from those of regular Magi, she gained an inheritance from an ancient branch back in eternal plains, the information was obviously detailed and donated to the organization by her graciously.
"Lord Leylin!" The female Magus opposite him curtsied, her pleasant voice sounding like a black-naped oriole, "Welcome back! Abyssal Bone Forest shall forever be your home!"
She was obviously showing her good will, and her voice immediately made Leylin think back to the bonfire at the acolyte camp. He remembered her as a person, yet her appearance has really drastically changed from her previous hideous visage.
"Nyssa, you finally achieved your goals and even more than that I must add." Leylin spoke slowly with a gentle smile. This female Magus was the one who had been deceived by her Mentor. The one who had turned into a disgusting freak due to a failed experiment. Contrary to her former nickname of 'swine', the Nyssa now was the very personification of beauty.
"Thank you for all your support and encouragement in the past." Nyssa's chest bounced up and down, she evidently had many things to say. Immediately after that, she ran her eyes over the surroundings, "Lord Leylin is no enemy. You may return."
"Understood." The stone orangutans saluted respectfully and brought the skeletal troops back to their original places.
"Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Leylin Farlier, the eternal pride of our Abyssal Bone Forest Academy! Let us welcome him warmly." Nyssa spoke with the poise of a leader to the professors behind her. She was completely different from the fragile and weak girl of the past.
"He's that Leylin!" "The Eternal Nightmare?" "Leader of the Rebelhearts" "No, I heard that" Visit for the best novel reading experience
His previous actions had earned Leylin a reputation second to none in the Abyssal Bone Forest Academy. People quickly began whispering under their breaths when his name was announced; some of them who were ranked high enough had received some information that caused them to humble themselves further before him.
The chattering stopped with but a wave of Nyssa's hand. This simple action showed off her authority.
Nyssa turned her attention to Bicky and a little girl behind Leylin looking at them with great interest, Leylin smiled and signaled them to introduce themselves.
"It's a pleasure to meet director Nyssa, you might not remember but I am aslo a student of Abyssal Bone Forest, from the Tyler family. I was an apprentice under Master Kroft and His Majesty fellow apprentice. My name is Bicky Tyler. " Although Bicky herself was a mighty Rank 3 Magus but she still humbly announced herself, before Leylin she didn't dare to act haughtily. Leylin knows both of them and before him the difference of Rank 3 and Rank 2 is no distinction at all.
After Bicky announced herself she sweetly grabbed the little girl in the back who was looking at everything with great intrest and kept mute. The way that Bicky hold her and looked at her with a bright kind smile make it seem as if she knew her for a long time.
"Hello, My name is Emilia I am a student of His Majesty. It's a pleasure to meet you. " Emilia bowed with a proper noble Magus etiquette and also addressed Leylin as 'his Majesty' similarly to how Bicky did, even though this address startled others and prompted them to rethink Leylin true status, they still kept a smiling face.
The crowd has no idea about Leylin true strength and really don't understand how lofty of a character he really is, and the weightage behind his name. To them the title His Majesty is a symbolism of his coming reign in South Coast and sure enough with his organization strength it's no brainer that such is the case, no one living in the South Coast has the guts to refuse his claim.
Nyssa looked at both of them with good will and shared a few words as she shot a sweet smile at Leylin, and it seemed to light up the whole graveyard. "I know there's a lot His Majesty want to know. I have a lot to say myself, so it's best we continue this in my drawing room below."
"Mm," Leylin nodded, he showed no reluctance or reaction of Nyssa change in addressing as if it's the most normal thing. This indifference created a faint ripple in her heart and a small disappointed but Nyssa continued to guide them.
"He was already notified about His Majesty appearance and he is euphoric to meet but the travel would take a long time."
Leylin stayed silent for a while longer before his voice sounded out, "Thank you very much, Nyssa. I don't plan to stay here for long, but I have a simple request." He announced.
"Please Your Majesty!," Nyssa quickly replied and bowed, inwardly she was on cloud nine, she can faintly guess his next words and the implications were very tempting.
"Many thanks. I'd like for you to enroll my disciple Emilia here in Abyssal Bone Forest, in the past I started my journey from here learning important life lessons and I want her to also experience them." Leylin said with a knowing smile towards the glowing face of Nyssa.
Leylin has eventually decided to send Emilia to this Dark Magus organization to spend her valuable young time and flourish, with her talent advancing is easy and the only bottleneck is her temperament and demeanor which he hopes to sharpen through this chapter in her early life. If Emilia can mold her heart and learn through hardship her future achievements would be remarkable.
"Your wish is our command, to enroll such a shining diamond in my small organization is my greatest fortune, you can rest assured she would be guided probably. I would personally guide her!" Nyssa exclaimed with a bright smile but she immediately sensed a chill in the air after her words fall.
"No I don't need for you to teach her anything, do you think I have lack of capable teacher for her?" Leylin refuted coldly.
"I won't dare-" Nyssa turned pale as an invisible force pressed on her body threatening to break every bone in her body.
Leylin looked at her for a mere second and turned his attention leaving her with a sigh of relief, "Emilia would be like every other student, with no special treatment. Only by clawing, scratching and tearing her way through this endeavor would she grow up to be a proper Magus. Her hardship is her biggest ally and asset, I won't let anyone destroy it."
"I understand!"
"But keep in mind, if anything happens to her." Leylin smiled coldly and the air seemed to freeze, Nyssa wanted to cry with no tears in sight, neither can she help her nor can she remain indifferent only protecting from the shadows, it's quite a predicament. But regardless of her feelings she assumed the most gentle smile and agreed readily.
Leylin reclined on the sofa, waving his arms as if in weariness. Leylin would obviously not leave the safety of Emilia in her hands, he has already made proper requirements but his Trump card would only work when her life is in serious danger and a critical period instead of that in any other situation it won't do shit, even if she loses a limb or two.
"Then I'll take my leave." Although Nyssa was the host, she seemed to obey Leylin unconditionally. She bowed slightly before retreating in caution.
...
"Are you going to meet your family in Chernobyl Islands?" Leylin was quietly sitting on couch with an unreadable expression while playing with a green seed as Bicky came and asked.
Leylin remained silent as he pocketed the seed and stood up, looking at a particular direction his dark black hole like eyes seemingly tearing through time and space as he seer through with a detached expression devoid of any feelings.
"No!"
"Oh!" Bicky was beginning to feel very uncomfortable and suffocating looking at Leylin and as she was about to retreat back while cussing herself for distrubing him, Leylin voice ranged.
"All that remains of that family are stranger, those people of that time are long dead. There is nothing to go to."
"Your Majesty, They lived a great life and died with huge content, I am sure of that, with a son like you there is only happiness and joy." Bicky spoke as she tried to come near him but as she took a single step forward she found that her body refused to listen to her keeping her restrained in an embarrassing position. She simply coughed and back down.
"I hope so, John Farlier was a good father." Leylin thought as he remembered a scene from the previous owner body, it was of John when he looked at Leylin in the eyes, his gaze filled with tenderness and warmth.
'He is indeed the kind of father who would do anything for his son...' Leylin thought with a sigh in his heart. John also cried with happiness, when Leylin was tested to have magical aptitude thinking that his son was finally on the right track
