The villainess shall be mine

:::[Adam's POV]:::

As usual, Cristal was very reliable. Thanks to her, I was able to get my hand on some interesting information about the Empire.

Nonetheless, seeing the glorious Empire's capital planet at its full splendor alone was something worth the trip.

To be honest, my life at the Holy would have been a very enjoyable experience if I didn't know about the things that I knew.

"Well, I am going to enjoy my life to the fullest either way," I mumbled in a low voice.

"What are you mumbling? It's pretty creepy sometimes," Blanca said but her eyes looked like they were glowing.

"Don't forget that you are my maid. Stop talking to me unless I ask you a question." I scolded Blanca but it wasn't because I was angry.

I knew from her reaction that she found the Empire quite amazing despite her usual attitude. It had not been ten minutes since we arrived and she already looked like she had a hard time keeping her poker face.

I couldn't blame her though. The airfield alone was enough to impress Steven Spielberg* if he was here.

Everything around screamed a futuristic vibe and as if that wasn't enough, there were many individuals from different species and different races, all acting as if they were enjoying their life to the fullest.

No wonder the newcomers get fooled by all of this and get easily swallowed without ever knowing what was happening to them.

Fortunately, I already knew exactly where should I go and what should I do.

"It's time, let's go."

After saying these words, I boarded a luxurious vehicle that I customized myself. I had placed it inside the ship without anyone knowing because I knew that there would be no personal transport for the participants unless they were acquainted with some influential noble.

Hence, they needed to travel using public transportation which was not in the least bad. I wouldn't be surprised if the Emperor used these means of transportation.

However, I needed to be above everyone else in everything, and traveling to the Holy Academy on this kind of Bus would make me look like a commoner.

It would have been all right if I played the prideful young noble with a tragic backstory, but such a thing would lower some people's opinion of me the way I was now.

Therefore, I created a vehicle by mixing various designs of popular cars from the earth and created a unique-looking vehicle that was too powerful for what I was going to use it.

Blanca and I entered the vehicle and left the airfield without waiting or talking to anyone.

Amelia was still inside her room, and Cristal confirmed that she was alive and in good health so I didn't care about what she planned to do with her.

Nonetheless, I left a device with a detailed map and some useful information as well as reminders next to her bed, without her knowing it. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

This device would produce a loud and very annoying sound every time she acted like a brat, and it was almost indestructible so she wouldn't be able to get rid of it. Even if she threw it away, it would always come back to her as it was equipped with tracks that would track the chip that I planted inside of her hair.

"Let's go to the holy Academy and finish the registration first," I instructed. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"Roger."

The care was controlled by Cristal and was fully automated. I was quite impressed by how Cristal could evolve by herself without really needing my help.

The way she was now, she was more useful than most of the tools that humans could create.

Nonetheless, I was already thinking about what I should do if something happened to her, after all, it would be no laughing matter if someone manage to access the data in her possession.

This was also the reason why I needed to act carefully and avoid exposing her to anything that could be lethal.

"Wow, it's really big," Blanca muttered looking at the city that was colorful and brimming with life. "What? I can talk when I am alone with you right? Don't worry, I am not stupid," or so she said after I looked at her with an apathetic face.

"Sigh… Well, this planet is enormous and this is just one of the popular among the visitors," I explained, taking it easy on Blanca, knowing that we had just arrived so she was still trying to examine what she was seeing.

Still, to think that they managed to create artificial rings around this huge sphere, and used the energy produced by the star's core to generate a shield around the planet.

It was not a secret so people already knew that sooner or later, the star's core would run out of energy, but it seemed like there would move to another planet when that time comes.

"You are already bored?"

"Well, the scenery is interesting, the flying objects are intriguing, and there are weird-looking people, but that's all," Blanca answered.

"What did you expect?" I asked, wondering about what exactly she wanted to see.

"Dragon fights? Oh, I also wanted to see giant robots fighting people riding dragons," Blanca said, looking like her ideas were extremely ingenious and entertaining.

"This is why I told you to not watch those films. Cristal, don't let Blanca watch those films again, she can't differentiate between fiction and reality."

"She looked like she was about to die of boredom," Cristal said in an apathetic voice.

"Hey, Cristal! I had already finished what you asked me to do so I didn't have anything else to do," Blanca rebuked but her eyes were wondering as she spoke.

I was just busy with various things so I asked Blanca to train by herself but it seemed like she wasn't training at all.

I didn't even know why she tried to hide the fact that she was just lazing around though. She was doing a pretty good job so I didn't intend to scold her or anything.

I was just wondering about how she perceived the concept of fiction as she must have experienced a lot of insane things during her life.

"Well… I won't be surprised if such a thing happens somewhere on this planet though," I added.

After that, we continued to chat for a while and before we know it, we had already reached our destination.

"We are here, master," Cristal announced.

"This is the beginning of the end," I said and adjusted my clothes and my hair. I knew that my words didn't have any deep meaning but I just felt like it was appropriate for the situation.

"…" Blanca didn't say anything and just looked indifferent.

Seeing her, I smiled and opened the vehicle's door.

There were already a lot of people strolling in and out of the Academy's main gate and that wasn't surprising.

The Holy Academy was not a single building but something similar to a floating island that had a castle on top of it.

It had everything needed for a person to receive the perfect education and unlock their full potential.

Moreover, there were special means of transport used to explore the area and the usage of unauthorized vehicles was prohibited.

Nonetheless, there was no rule prohibiting me from using my cape to transport myself.

Therefore, even when I exited the vehicle, I didn't step on the ground and just floated above it.

Unlike me, Blanca couldn't fly without activating her power so I made a flat black square appear below her feet.

The vehicles left as soon as we begin to move forward. I asked Cristal to wait for us at a certain location and prepare various things for the next step of our plan.

As expected, though, people were looking at me and of course, I made sure that they weren't disappointed when they did.

There were few nobles with their attendants and maids, but Blanca was special in every way and so was I.

Her outfit was designed by me, using the most elegant but modern design that I could remember and adapted it to this world of fashion, making it look at the same time, classy and original.

Well, even without the outfit, only was the only one that was at the same level as her when it came to natural beauty, my mother was not included.

As for me, I adjusted my outfit to fit me perfectly and go well with the tone of my cape.

I could hear the chatters of the bystanders but as an elite, I kept my composure and didn't show any excessive expression, behavior, or emotions.

The only problem was that the usage of my power was restricted while I wore the cape.

It wasn't like I could use it at all, and like when I trained with the platinum sword, I just made sure that my nullification ability didn't touch the cape. It needed a lot of focus but there was no telling when someone would some kind of metal ability or invisible attack against me.
