The Author Is Speechless

Viktor was sitting at the very corner of the hall room when the two idiots were busy talking with other students. He was checking the book he punished 2 years ago and deleted from the internet.

It had nearly 10 million views but for his safety, he had to delete it. Because there might be someone who'd introduce the book to the guardian of greed.

Well, I'm happy that nobody made a copy and posted it illegally on other websites.

At that time, a boy walked on the stage to give a small pep talk. His hair was blond and his eyes were blue as mana stone with an oval-shaped face.

He looked like a prince.

There were already a lot of girls screaming to cheer him up and it turned out they were also foreigners.

'He's a prince…'

His sweet voice and handsome smile were enough to catch everyone's eyes. He was the perfect example of beauty.

He's nothing like Adonis.

Viktor smirked and looked back to his phone to play a new game he found on the internet.

"Vik, aren't you gonna cheer them up? They are the future of this world's development. We need to cheer them up."

"Hu? Oh. Whatever." He again looked back at his phone.

But there was someone who was checking on them secretly from the backseat as well. He was right behind Viktor's seat and looking closely at his phone.

He was Baek Hyun Suk, the rising star of the sword family. For his extreme curiosity, he slowly took a glance at his phone to check and what he saw did nothing but disappoint him.

'Games? Who plays games at this age? He's supposed to cultivate his aura pool without wasting a second. Is he an idiot or just messing around?'

Viktor knew he was checking on him. He also did a family background check on every person in the school and found Ijin and Baek Hyun as the most annoying. He knew they were going to hook up on them and try to squeeze everything out of him but he didn't care at all.

This type of person was always on his back and they will continue to do so in the future.

On the other hand, Ijin who was super curious got stuck with him and also took the seat right beside him. His eyes were also locked on Viktor's phone screen.

"Ijin, are you going to keep staring at my phone?" Viktor asked.

"Hu? I was just watching the game you were playing. It's fun isn't it?"

"Then install one and play it on your phone."

Suddenly, a notification came down and Ijin saw Adonis was calling him. So he picked it up.

*Ahem. Brother Viktor, are you enjoying your new environment?*

He's really clever. He knew there would be people around me listening to his voice and if he addressed me as master, it would create a huge gossip and tons of misunderstandings.

"A little, did something happen?"

*Oh, no. I was just checking up on you. Anyway, a letter has been sent on your name this morning at 9.*

"Yes, I am aware of it. Please keep it on my table. I will take care of it after I go back."

*Okay then, see you later.*

Viktor again went inside his game and then Ijin asked, "Was that your brother? Is he really your brother, Viktor?"

"Yes, are you satisfied with my answer? Now let me play my game in peace and don't bother me."

The orientation was nearly finished and some teachers gave every student a small device that was the size of a katana's wooden handle.

It was called Hybrid drive, an advanced weapon that can change its shape with the help of nanotechnology. It was so light and no matter how big the weapons were turned into. The durability of the weapon is based on the mana of the user. So, the bigger the mana core, the stronger the weapon.

All the weapons were made by the best weaponry department's graduate students. Based on the student's choice, everyone's weapon was custom-made.

For example, swords, bows, spears, hammers, axes and magic staffs.

But this year, there was someone who asked for a new but odd weapon that people don't really know how to use properly. Even the engineers were confused at first when they saw the weapon request.

For the lack of information, Adonis had to send a blueprint to the department. Thus, a new weapon was added to the academic weapon list.

The ceremony was over.

Viktor put his H.drive inside his pocket and asked Welis what kind of weapon she took.

Welis said, "A blade whip. It's perfect to protect my weak body from any attacks."

Rae laughed and said, "Make sure that you won't cut into pieces while wielding it."

"Shut up!! You better be careful while using yours. 100 daggers? I wonder how you are going to control it."

And poor Viktor was in the middle of them dealing with the trouble. He was already exhausted.

Suddenly, Baek Hyun came in front of him and said, "You guys. I heard your conversation and it looks like you two chose something different. But Rae Li, how are you going to use 100 short blades? And a blade whip? You guys really think of yourself as the main character, don't you?"

Rae and Welis were surprised to hear that someone was complaining about their weapon when he chose a sword.

But Viktor stopped them from answering and said, "Aren't you being rude?"

Baek looked at his eyes and saw the colour was different. He saw on his picture that his eye colour was deep blue but now, it was light blue and on the verge of turning silver. He became more handsome and tall in just a month.

He was already a different person from the real Neul.

"I was just asking. And what family are you from? I never heard of any family that used a whip and small daggers."

Viktor smiled and said, "They are my cousins from my mother's side, the Li family of free hybrids."

"Hahahah!! Vik can be a little prideful sometimes. Sorry if he offended you but we'll go back to the class. It's our first day, right? Let's get along." Rae shook his hands with Baek and also dragged him back to the class.

Baek was a little annoyed.

Viktor took his seat and again opened his game when everyone was busy demonstrating their weapon. At that time, the martial arts teacher came in and said, "Okay that's enough. Go back to your seat and put your weapons back. I know you are already familiar with your chosen weapons but I can see there are four students who ordered personal weapons from outside the list. I know students can use any kind of weapon as they wish but there is a limit."

He took the list of students and said, "For example, Rae Li. 100 small daggers? What are you going to do with them? Throw them at your opponent?"

The whole class started to laugh when Rae was giving off an unsettling smile.

The teacher shook his head and said, "Oliver Hunter. Why did you choose a gun?"

All the students looked at the girl who was sitting at the very end. Her hair was pure black but her eyes were pure white. They looked like shining diamonds in her long black lashed eyes.

She stood up and said, "It won't be a problem as long as I defeat my opponent."

A young man stood up and said, "You will kill people."

"I can control my bullets so you won't die."

The teacher stopped their argument and said, "Okay, stop both of you. We'll test each other's strength and the control of weapons in the physical training class. For now, let's review our semester books and the lectures you need to attain for the next four months."

Viktor laughed a little and put back his phone to open the book that was in front of him. But instead of reading it, he smelt the book and said, "This hits the spot."

He again held the book against his face to smell it but this time, the teacher noticed him. "Viktor E. North, it will be appropriate behaviour if you put down the book from your face and be attentive to the class like a gentleman."

"Oh. Sorry."

Tsk! I want to hit that man's head.

…

The class was only 40 minutes long but for Viktor, it felt like a whole year. He was so annoyed that he read the whole book and also finished the others but still, he felt like the class was going to take forever.

But Rae on the other hand was enjoying every second of the class while Welis was busy talking with the other girls beside her. Her beauty made her popular among the class in just a day.

And Viktor who was not enjoying a single second suddenly found a girl who was passing by with her long steel sword on her back.

Viktor took a glance at her and mumbled in surprise, 'Is it possible to see the same exact girl whom I saw back in the Vestrain red light district?'

The girl he saw looked the same as the girl that he saw so many years ago in Vestrain when he was escorting Inu to his house.

But he ignored her and walked away again but just as before, the girl kept staring at his back until he was lost in the crowd.
