Chapter 198: What Do I Need To Do?
"As I said that is-" Bairon who was talking was again frozen on the spot, and it wasn't only him the other two lances and the students also felt every hair on their body stand up while sweating.
"I won't be repeating myself," Haru said with his smile vanishing and Bairon felt scared again, it just like before his feet went back with him knowing. This was surprising for Olfred and Alea but they themselves weren't in a good position, because three of them were outside of the door before they knew it.
Kanae snorted while Curtis, Arthur, Elijah, Claire, Tessia, and Kathyln were staring at the closed door with blank eyes.
'Please God spare these little overconfident idiots the embarrassment, Oh! You aren't going to? Then make it interesting at least, Latom,' Randel made prayer but gave halfway since he knew it would be pointless.
'What the fuck did we just witness?' They all thought with surprise and terror while looking at Haru who didn't even look fazed by kicking out three lances out of the room like he was shooing a dog.
Knock* Knock*
"Who is it?" Hearing the knock on the door Haru asked. The others just took in a sharp breath.
'He is fucking with them/us, isn't he?' that was the thought of everyone including the lances, But Bairon clenched his fists because he couldn't do anything in front of the person in question.
"I am Lance Bairon, I want to talk to Professor Tsugikuni regarding an important matter," Bairon said.
"He isn't here fuck off," Haru said while digging his ear.
"Pfft, haha sorry, sorry," Randel couldn't hold it in any further and burst out laughing seeing how Haru was behaving but the others were mortified at the current situation. They were so stunned that they didn't even pay attention to Randel who was rolling on the ground.
"Come in he is just joking," Kanae said as she snorted at Haru.
"Come on Kanae don't interrupt my fun," Haru said with a pout making Kanae look away with a 'Hmph'.
'So he isn't even trying to hide it now, you are disrespecting three of the strongest mages on this continent just for fun? How can we do the same, Please teach us,' Everyone thought but it was very much like Haru to do something like this, If he told them that he would wipe out a Continent just cause he didn't like the cake he ate they will like 'Ok Fair, I guess,'
The door opened and the three lances walked in Bairon and Olfred looked pissed at Haru while Alea looked curious, She was here on a mission with Bairon but Olfred wanted to tag along for some reason, plus she didn't want to back down after she heard about Haru from Merial, she wanted to see him herself as someone who was also acknowledged by Zenobia.
'And boy am I surprised, This is beyond my wildest expectations, He is unbelievably strong to make all three of us retreat with just his glare alone,' Alea was really happy that she didn't skip out as things got interesting the moment they stepped in.
She wasn't the least bit worried about how she looked in front of her own princess who was standing there, at the moment she was solely interested in Haru alone.
"So, How important is the topic to make you forget basic manners," Haru asked getting Bairon to clench his teeth in anger but he couldn't do anything so he went straight to the point.
"I want you to take back the suspension order on Lucas," Bairon said making Haru tilt his head.
"What? I thought the continent was being invaded, but it looks like it doesn't take much to revert you to a brute huh," Haru said with a smirk making Bairon's anger boil but there was something that surprised everyone in the room including the lances.
'Lance Bairon can't meet his gaze,' Everyone was surprised as they saw Bairon's eyes were looking down the whole time he didn't even look up. This was what took Alea and Olfred by shock since Bairon wasn't someone who would lower his head like this when talking to people.
'Oh buff pretty boy has been broken by Girly Pretty Bastard, This is quite Sadge,' Randel thought with a sad expression.
"Will you do it or not?" Bairon asked as he didn't want to play along with Haru's games.
"Of course since it is you who asked…." Haru paused for a bit Bairon felt like he would be able to save the situation.
"I won't," Haru said with a smirk and Kanae scoffed she had already expected it.
"Why? This will tarnish Lucas's reputation, And it is only a small matter of attacking a commoner why d-" Bairon who was talking was cut off.
"It doesn't matter, if you are so worried about Lucas then you should've taught him better, and it doesn't matter who he attacked, the one he attacked was a student of this academy and also a D.C member, so he will face his punishment just be thankful that he wasn't expelled since this is his second time attacking someone else for no reason," Haru said shocking Bairon and Arthur. While the others were confused Haru looked at Olfred who was looking at him with an evaluating gaze.
'It looks like I have to report to Elder about another possible threat, But that isn't the reason I am here,' Olfred looked at Randel who was looking at him with a complicated look as well.
'Why is this old guy here? Why is he looking at me?' Randel was a bit uncomfortable at the moment.
"Randel do you know this guy?" Haru asked while pointing at Olfred.
"Ah I have forgotten to introduce myself, My name is Olfred Warend I am a lance, it is a pleasure to meet you," Olfred introduced himself in a polite tone.
"And I am Alea Triscan I am also a Lance, Nice to meet you all," Alea waved with a smile and Haru only nodded with a smile at the two.
"So Olfred do you have any business with Randel?" Haru asked with his eyes narrowed, from the feeling he was getting from this guy it didn't look like he came with good intentions.
"Yes, we know each other I was asked by elder Rahdeas to ask Randel if he made up his mind to train under me," Olfred said and Alea was a bit surprised, since becoming a Lance's student was no simple matter.
But if this went through things will get problematic since Randel is none other than Zenobia's little brother. Worst case scenario the peace that has been maintained will be turned on its head, Everyone knew that you shouldn't mess with Zenobia's family she won't be merciful in the least. Some of the Supremacist Elven Nobles were a good example of this. At a formal party held in Elenoir, some of the nobles actually tried to hurt Randel and things got pretty heated.
If it wasn't for Randel who stopped Zenobia things would've been much worse than her cutting ties with the Elven Kingdom entirely, This is also the reason why the elven royal family has tried to repair their relationship till now but it didn't work out.
Although she doubted that Olfred who was known for his serious behavior would do something like hurting Randel, The news of Randel being his disciple will surely put the nobles of Sapin and Elenoir into disarray. [E/N: this is the political bullshit and the works,]
"Is that so Randel," Haru asked Randel who looked at him briefly before speaking.
"I would've done that if you weren't my teacher at the moment," Randel said making Olfred frown.
'I can't let this happen, we won't be able to carry out our plan like this,' Olfred thought as he looked between Haru and Randel.
"Randel are you sure, you should know why Elder Rahdeas asked this right?" Olfred said making Randel a little restless, he knew the reason very well.
His father was Rahdeas's former disciple before he was captured by the human slave traders when he was young. It might've been a great proposal for Randel who wanted to become stronger so that his sister doesn't worry about him, but now?
'There is no need for me to go there, and personally, I don't like the dwarves, The king is a hedonist who tried to harass my sister but got beaten, while that elder is a two-faced snake who tried to extort my sister by playing both sides,' Randel thought as he nodded to Olfred's words.
"Even then I do not feel like leaving my sister alone, plus my teacher now is way stronger," Randel said plainly making Olfred frown but he didn't say anything. Haru had an 'O' face since Randel was using him as a shield at the moment.
Alea was looking at the situation with interest while the students were a bit nervous aside from Claire who was having a fangirl moment looking at the Lances. Arthur was looking at Bairon evaluating him since this was the man that is the greatest threat to him at the moment.
"….What do I need to do?" Bairon who had been silent till now spoke up while looking at Haru.
