Chapter 144: Is it wrong?

[The entrance test has been concluded and there is a special general announcement.]

While the people present before the pixie professor were still lost in their thoughts, they heard the voice of the new system along with every single being present inside the academy.

[A new Title holder has been registered and they have two title holding bonded beasts.]

[To make their achievements known, appropriate bonus points will be added to their Notes.]

"What?"

"Two titled beasts?"

"What the hell? Did some dragon enter the academy?"

"What's going on right now? Who is this person??"

The academy started talking about the person that had become the new most important individual of the academy.

"The fact that he was given a title means there's something very different about him. But, the fact that he has two titled beasts makes him a dangerous individual."

"Hey, but think about it like this: the beasts' title will restrict them and his title will ease their restrictions. That just makes them normal, right?"

The fact that a titled beast was dangerous in general and was subjected to restrictions was one thing, but the fact that a titled individual was different from any other and was given special blessings eased any system restrictions on them.

Ultimately, within the academy, in his category as a reader, he was stronger than most who also possessed a titled beast of their own.

[A new individual in the <Reader> rank has been registered. The Stanox looks forward to their contributions going forward.]

This was not a global announcement but only for the teachers who held a teaching position in the academy.

They were given a heads up: a change was coming.

{ "With this, that boy will be up for a lot of troublesome things." }

The pixie professor said her goodbye to the group and went inside her house with a yawn.

She knew the academy was soon going to go up in a gust so before that happens, she might as well catch some sleep.

"Sam…" But not everyone would be like her.

His older brother was not going to have any peaceful sleep for the time being.

"You… are unbelievable."

Rainin was assigned a Scholar rank and standing right beside him, despite her best attempts, Lexie ended up in a Lecturer position right from the start.

This wasn't supposed to happen. She didn't even know anything about teaching.

In the first place, she didn't even know what she was supposed to teach these children. This rank was just too much for her… but now that she had this rank, she would only move forward after knowing what Sam wanted her to do.

"Haaa…"

He wasn't here right now so he was probably sent to the higher ups of Stanox. But whatever the case, he should be fine right now.

"Since the tests are over, we should go and take a look around the place. What do you say, Miss?"

"Hmm… oh, shall we do that?"

They were beyond the academy gates right now, standing before a world that shouldn't have been here in the first place.

-Swiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish!

They were inside a mountain right now but there were high buildings that seemed to be made out of glass.

There were big creatures flying above and across these buildings.

Hundreds of people were travelling through the vast plaza present right in front of them right now.

There were streets, shops, things that they had never seen before, things that they had only ever heard about, and there were children, and there were elders, and there were just… so many things here.

"Do you feel overwhelmed?" Rainin looked at her with a smile, completely understanding just how she might be feeling right now.

"A little." Lexie did not deny her fears.

This was a strange place.

She had spent all her life in places that did not have many people. First it was her life before she met Sam's mother and then it was the boundary of Sungrade house.

She was good at what she did, she was great at being a caretaker and a maid, but, at the same time, she was not someone who enjoyed flashy things or positions.

"You look sad… here, have this."

"What's this…?"

"Some kind of candy they were selling over there."

Rainin and Lexie were now walking through the academy streets, strange shops selling strange things present all around them.

Money was not gold or silver in this place: everything was points that you earned through the system.

You buy, sell, and exchange points to get what you want. Your achievements provide you with periodic points and the point system worked in a manner that was not easy to understand for most minds.

But it was something simple for a Serulina. He had studied this system ever since he was little.

"Oh, this is good."

"Right?"

The sweets that they were having right now resembled a ball of white dough soaked in a sweet sugar syrup.

It was a strange thing but Lexie liked it quite a bit.

It was sweet, warm, fluffy, and most of all, it melted in her mouth the moment she placed it there.

She instantly wanted to have more of it… and Rainin was ready with the seconds.

"I think Prism will be busy for some time now."

"So? We should go to him now."

"We should… but let's go to that shop first."

They had suffered through a dangerous test. And it has made them realise a lot of things…

The Serulina boy had, in addition to his position before Prism, had also understood how important his role in this certain lady's life would be from now on.

"Hmm? Wow, this looks cool."

"Isn't it?"

She had taken care of him all his life and she followed him to this place as well.

There was no master-servent concept in this place. So, just like everyone else, she was also a student in this academy.

She was not a maid of Sungrades anymore and he was not the child of Serulians… so… well?

"Miss Lexie, look here."

"Hmm? Ohh! What's that?"

Would it be too wrong to do what he wanted behind that person's back?
