22 Chapter 22. Success and the path (1/2)

Manves took a long deep breath before continuing, ” Remember children, Your limitation- it is only your imagination. ”

Finishing the sentence, he halted briefly before continuing.

Roselia stared blankly at him. His words kept on looping in her mind. At first she didn't quite understand what the pricipal spoke. However, as words kept on repeating, she indeed catched the meaning behind those words. It might have seemed too easy to understand what he mean, but there was an underlying meaning in those few words.

He not only mean that the only limit to your impact is your imagination and commitment, but in actual, he means to say that to achieve your goal, learn to use your imagination, and move in the direction of your dreams.

”Wow... He sure has a way with words, ” Roselia mumbled as she gazed at the principal intensely. She doesn't want to miss even a single word of his speech.

Her eyes curiously fixated on him, to the point that she didn't even dared to wander her eyes which might distract her from hearing the principal's speech.

”Thus, let us start our new year at school with hopes and dreams that no matter how limited we might be, we will do our best to achieve what we call dreams. Also, it is something magical about success.....”

At the mention of the word success, Manves seemed to contemplate on something. His eyes travelled around the whole room as though a predator searching for its prey.

He stretched his hand, his index finger pointing at a random person. Well, that's how he actually showed it to others, but the unbeknown thing is he do know the real identity of the student and who he is. Everyone turned to look over him. Manves signalled the boy to come over to him with his finger.

Except one pair of eyes, all other eyes turned to the boy. Roselia was a little confused by Manves behavior, ” A reputed school principal pointing finger at someone and signalling the person. That's way too rude for someone, ” She commented internally.

It was Lucas. Lucas couldn't believe Manves actually searched for him in the whole wide hall and picked him finally. He turned his finger towards him, asking to confirm whether it was him or not.

Manves simply smiled a little, but nevertheless, he did signalled again giving an assertive nod to Lucas.

Lucas hesitantly got up from his seat. What he wanted was a low-key life and graduate painlessly. However, this academy sure making him lose all his peaceful days.

He scrambled to his feet, his fingers slowly ran through his hair as he helplessly turned his head to look straight into Manves eyes. It was so sexy and attractive to the eye of the beholders.

He seemed casual, yet at the same time not an easy pick to meddle. Many girls took a fancy to him with his cool guy attitude just now.

Lucas could feel puppy devoting eyes at him and he was sure enough he already had a spot light on him at this very moment, ” Screw over!!! This old man has to pick me up out of everyone. I don't think we have any old scores to settle yet. I am sure my beauty will for sure cause me trouble in the following days.... It is indeed not good to be a hunk afterall, ” He murmured internally as he took small steps towards Manves smiling bitterly.

Ethan 'tsked' knowing what must be going on Lucas mind, ”Narcissism is a crime. Should I consult a doctor to treat you. I hope it is not contagious.”

”What? ”, Lucas instantly took a halt hearing Ethan's voice ring in his mind, but he sure immediately got back to his senses. After all, hundreds of eyes were on him and it would create suspicions if other supernatural beings find out they are not humans.

Earlier, Ethan spoke to Lucas through via telepathically. Both Lucas and Ethan could contact each other via telepathy ever since childhood, now which became a habit that they use their mouths less and mind more, unless it is necessary to speak directly.

Lucas didn't expect Ethan to speak suddenly, ”Don't tell me you are peeking inside my mind and invading my privacy, ” his voice stern and it is easy to say he was annoyed if one carefully glances at the change of his slightly furrowed eye brows. Everyone wants their privacy and Lucas was no exception to it.

Ethan casually and carelessly, with a deep voice, replied back, ” That was all well written on your face.... Now tell me why Manves is calling you? ”His voice serious as he spoke the latter sentence.
