49 Old lady isnst old (1/2)
”What's your name?”
Fran asked in a neutral tone but even a blind would see flames flaring in his eyes; though none of them could think of a reason as the student's question was completely logical and Fran has never been an unreasonable guy.
”Sir, I'm Wint Dowser.”
The kid surprisingly didn't shrink or quiver at Fran's raging eyes; he just calmly answered.
”Okay Wint the school never promised you fairness or justice and the person who gave the Dorn card is the Dorm Keeper one of the strongest soul Cultivators of the school. So you better give respect while referring to such revered characters. Do you understand?”
Wint guts didn't soothe Fran anger instead it was like pouring oil to burning fire he became even more furious.
”Sir, this isn't my fault. The only thing I can make out from her appearance was that she was old and I believe calling someone her age as Old Lady is nothing disrespectful. But from here onwards, following Sir's advice I will refer to her as Dorm Keeper.”
Wint gave a steady and perfectly logical answer; which not only surprised Fran even Quinn felt accidently.
'This Kid's courage is really out of the world but should I call it courage or idiocy?'
Quinn shook his head while admiring the show from his seat. Though he appreciated Wint's nerve, Quinn wouldn't agree with him as offending Fran might make one's days in school worse than hell.
Even though Fran a very reasonable guy, expecting rationality from a raging bull is nothing but daydreaming. But to Quinn's astonishment Fran didn't shower Wint with scolding or rebuke him till he submitted.
Fran just silently observed the kid who was standing like a straight pole without a hint of fear in his eyes. Then he gave a small nod before gesturing him to take his seat; though Wint was surprised, he obediently sat down with an invisible sigh. In fact, he too was expecting a round of severe scolding from his teacher.
Fran's temper triggered the moment Wint called the Dorm keeper an Old Lady but after hearing the student's clear answer under his flaring rage; Fran's anger turned into admiration and he also agreed with Wint. He also decided to keep an eye on this kid as he was born to be a troublemaker.
In fact, he lost control because the Old lady was not only a powerhouse she's also Kelly's mother or his mother-in-law; if somehow Kelly got to know that one of his students called her mother an old lady then his days are sure to be miserable.
Not that she's a mama baby, it's just if her mother is an old lady them it would make her a middle-aged woman which is worse than killing her.
*sigh* 'Whatever what's done is done; hope this matter doesn't get into her ears.'
”Just remember to be respectful and humble to anyone older than you; most of the powerhouse has the habit of concealing their presence by turning into ordinary passer-bys. And if you somehow got into the wrong page with them, then no matter how talented you are; something terrible will be waiting for you in the store.
'A dead genius is but a corpse' your potential isn't worth a cent to those at the top as every year tons of genius pops but only a fraction of them reach the real peak.”
