35 Angelica (1/2)
After the battle, I could see both Brett and Salem walking towards me.
”Drake congratulations on winning that battle, you were amazing.”
”Yes, Drake you are a monster having 4 affinities. You are a heaven-defying genius.”
”Thanks, guys.”
”What did the principal say to you just now?”
”I have to go meet her in her office, probably something about me using 4 elements.”
”The Principal really looks scary sometimes, even though she is incredibly hot I wonder which man will be able to conquer her.”
Haha, that'll be me. But of course, I wouldn't tell them that.
”We won't hold you up any longer, don't want her getting mad. See you later.”
”Bye guys.”
Taking my leave I departed in the direction of the Principals office. When I arrived she was waiting for me in front of the door.
”Get in.”
It seems she is a bit angry. After sitting down on a chair she sat down opposite of me.
”So when were you planning on telling me about your quadruple-affinity? You know the consequences this brings?”
”I'm sorry I didn't want to cause any trouble.”
”Not causing any trouble? Then what did you do just now? About now every powerhouse on the continent will probably already know about a 12-year-old who can use 4 different types of elements.”
”Is that a bad thing?”
”Are you stupid? Of course, it's a bad thing. Do you think our enemies will let us slowly nurture you into a heaven-defying mage? No, they won't. At the very least assassination, squads will be sent to take your head.”
I gulped. I definitely didn't plan this through. I knew that revealing my abilities would cause some people to act, but I was capable of repelling their attacks. But when it comes to powerhouses scattered over the continents who don't want the human kingdom to acquire a strong mage, I would die not even knowing what hit me.
Looking at me getting scared a small grin appeared on her face.
”Haha, I'm sorry you don't worry that much about it. Yes, having quadruple-affinity is really rare, it's not something people like that will try to assassinate you for. The thing you have to worry the most about is probably the noble families. If a family is able to entice you in joining them it will be a huge power-up for them. They will probably try to approach you and try and have you join their family. Some organizations in the capital will do the same.”
”So there won't be any assassination attempts?”
”No, I only wanted to scare you a bit. It isn't smart to reveal so much if you don't have to power yet to protect yourself. So you have to be wary of that in the future. I'll also take care of some stuff so you can go on with your daily life without worrying.”
