Chapter 81 Enrollment 6 (1/2)
”stop right there!”
a strong willed voice that Mars didn't recognize sounded out in the cafeteria but Mars ignored it and kept walking
”I told you to stop!”
a soft hand grabbed Mars but he shock it off before he kicked off the ground and activated [Instant movement] and reappeared a few meters ahead before he continued calmly walking towards the exit
”last warning, stop right there!”
Mars finely paused and stopped, before he turned around with a oddly calm smile on his face as he inspected the one that had called out to him and saw it was a girl about 16 years old, she had fiery red hair that was set in two twin tails on the side of her head, she had orange eyes and was clad in a academy uniform
”what?”
the girl got visibly irritated by Mars's short question and flared up
”you! don't you know it's against the rules to bring beasts into the cafeteria?”
”no I did not, now if will excuse me”
”YOU! stop right there!”
”what?”
seeing Mars' attitude was still indifferent the girl got even more enraged
”you have to pay a fine, follow after me”
”why?”
”BECAUSE. I. SAY. SO!”
the air around the girl started to get hot as her mana started to get active
”...meh I don't want to”
”YOU!!! FINE DON'T BLAME ME THEN!”
the girl pulled out a wand before she summoned a fire lance witch pointed at Mars
”...fire eh”
Mars was unmoved by the fire lance and stood still as it was hurled towards him by the enraged girl
'it would be a pain if my clothes got burnt, but I can't just doge it or else the cafeteria is going to be set on fire...'
Mars thought for a moment before he thrust his hand out to meet the fire lance before he simply grabbed it and snuffed it out with his bare hand and looked at the stunned girl with a slight smile on his face
”that was rude”
Mars activated [Instant movement] and disappeared before he reappeared right in front of the girl and
”OUCH!”
poked her forehead leaving behind a red mark on her skin
”you know the funny thing about rules is they only work if you have someone strong enough to enforce them”
the girl rubbed her forehead and looked at Mars with teary eyes
”f-fine I'll let you go with a warning”
”that's more like it”
Mars turned and walked out of the cafeteria, this time no one stopped him
'let's find some place quiet...'
Mars walked around and soon found a quiet corner of a courtyard where a lonely tree stood and sat down with his back against the tree before he called out
”it's fine now Victoria”
Victoria jumped out of Mars's shadow and looked around with weary eyes before she walked over and nestled on Mars's lap where he petted her gently to sooth her after a while Mars could feel that Victoria had calmed down
”let's go into the city and get some breakfast”
”okay...I'm hungry”
seeing Victoria was back to normal Mars gave a happy smile
”then let's go find some food”
Mars walked out the gate to the academy and out onto the streets of the academy city
'now where to go... lets just wander around...'
Mars did as he though and wandered around for a bit and took in the sights of the city until he arrived at a market
”this looks promising... Victoria you smell anything good?”
Victoria looked around and sniffed the air before she looked at a direction as her horns flashed
”over...there, smell... good”
”then let's go over there”
Mars walked in the direction pointed out by Victoria and soon they both saw and smelled a bunch of food stalls and quickly brought some grilled meat which he fed to Victoria and a sandwich witch he ate himself, now having satisfied their hunger Mars and Victoria took some time to explore the market witch had all sorts of odds and ends but bedsides some low class magic beast cores Mars found nothing of interest and left the market without using anymore money and started to walk back towards the academy with Victoria
'well it was fun in its own way... maybe I should bring Elsa next time?'
Mars and Victoria returned to the academy without anything interesting happening that is until they reached the dorms and was about to walk in
”stop right there!”
'not this shit again...'
Mars debated ignoring the call but eventually turned around and saw the girl from earlier
'she's brought more people this time... annoying'
the girl had a smug look on her face as she was surrounded by what looked like 3 of her friends/underlings
”I decided to have you pay the fine anyway, now come with me”
”...annoying”
