Chapter 38 - Conviction
"Erm… Sorry, if you don't mind, could I borrow that book?" Said the kid
"Ahh.. you mean this book?" Asked Angus towards the kid.
The kid only nodded his head timidly. During this time, Angus found that the kid has weird behaviour. More than finding it weird, he found the kid is like having a unique feeling.
Usually Angus will only find this kind type of person at a genius people, a non-social person, an autism or an idiotic person. Angus guesses that this kid is some kind of non-sociable person from the way he presents himself.
During his time working as an assassin on Earth, Angus also learned manything about humans from its anatomy to psychology. Profiling and guessing kids' nature is a piece of cake for him just through his glance.
'Well, none of it is my problem anyway.' Thought Angus before he gave his reply.
"Sure, here's the book." as Angus gives the book to the kid.
"T-Thank you, my name is Johnny, Johnny Fester. By the way…" replied the kid.
"Well, my name is Angus Victory. Nice to meet you, Johnny." as Angus introduces himself.
"V-Victory?? I am sorry…" said Johnny.
"No need for that, you can take the book. I am not in an urgent need to read it. Just put the book back after you finish it." said Angus as he walked away.
Then, Angus went back to his dorm without any hassle. At this moment, he found a few people standing in front of the entrance of his dorm. As Angus approached them, they also began to notice him walk towards them.
"You there! did you stay in this dorm?" said one of the students.
"Yeah, is there a problem?" asked Angus nonchalantly.
"Could you call out the student name Ian? Said to him that Morris is waiting for him outside." said the other student.
'This kid seems familiar.' Thought the oldest kid from the group.
"Hmm… Why don't you call him by yourself?" asked Angus again.
"You… hey kid, don't you know who I am?" said one of the kids.
"Nope and I don't care who you are. So, could you please get away? I need to get inside the dorm." said Angus with a lazy expression.
"Y-You… Boys, it seems we could have some warm up first." said one of the kids with sneer.
Then, the other kid started surrounding Angus. "Hahaha… You should just stay quiet and be obedient, kid." said of the student.
'Haa… What a hassle situation I got here.' Thought Angus inwardly
"So…" replied Angus lazily.
"So, you should shut your goddamn mouth and…" said one of the big build students.
However, before he finishes his word, "and ALL OF YOU IS SO DEATH!!" shouted someone from far away.
Everyone immediately looks at the prepeator who is shouting at them. They see a teenager with big muscular size approaching him.
Looking at the approaching man, "Henry, I believe we don't have any business right?" said the oldest students.
But, Henry didn't reply, rather bow in front of Angus, "I am sorry. young master Victory. I will get rid of all of this imbecile right away."
Hearing this, all the surrounding students immediately turned pale. "V-Victory…."
Suddenly, all of them begin to remember that in front of him is the third son of Duke Victory who is creating quite a commotion during this year's entrance exam.
"I-I am sorry, young master Victory from lack of my manner. We will leave now." Said the oldest kid right away.
"Ehh.. But, brother, didn't you say you will beat Ian?" said one of the students with a similar face as the oldest student.
"Just shut up, Buck. We are leaving now!!" said the oldest student.
"Y-Yes, brother." As the kid agree with him reluctantly
Before all of them leave, "I am sorry once again Mr. Victory. I hope you could forgive my and my brother's lack of manners for this inconvenience."
"Yeah-yeah… Whatever. Just go away already." said Angus nonchalantly.
As soon as he said that the group immediately went away like a wind. Looking at this, 'Haaa.. What a bunch of kids…' thought Angus inwardly.
"What a troublesome kid.. Why didn't they just enter the dorm and get the business done?" remark Angus.
"It's because there is a 4th princess who also stays inside the dorm, young master. It's an unwritten rule to never create a commotion inside the first year Spring Dorm." answer Henry faithfully.
After the entrance exam accident, Henry becomes a sort of bodyguard for Angus. However, Henry hardly could keep track of Angus because of his lack of presence and skill.
Most of the time, he loses track of him and notices that the person itself is already back to his dorm. The only reason he could find Angus now is because he managed to know the schedule of Angus over the time.
At first Henry wanted to keep close to Angus so he didn't lose track of him. But, at that time Angus feels annoyed by it and gives a nonchalantly comment to tell his father about it.
Since then, Henry tried to stalk and protect Angus from far away. During this moment, he feels that Angus is truly enigma. Even after using his tracking skill and spell, Henry could hardly find him most of the time.
It feels like Angus himself didn't exist in this world. To be precise he feels like Angus is becoming one with nature itself. Because of this, Henry decides to respect and be fully dedicated towards Angus.
As for Angus himself, he also already knows about Henry's conviction. However, he also never cared about it.
Hearing Henry's response and his polite attitude, Angus look at Henry weirdly, "Really?? I don't know if there are such rules here. Well, none of it is my problem anyway." as Angus walks towards the dorm.
"I hope you have a nice rest, Young Master." said Henry while he bowed his head once again.
Angus only waved his hand without replying to him. Actually Angus notices that Henry is stalking him. But, since he didn't make any nuisance for him except for the first few weeks at the start of the term, he just left him alone.
Before he enters the dorm, the dorm's door opens abruptly. "Huh.. Where are those imbeciles?"
