13 Chapter 13 (2/2)

A few of his classmates cheered at the fact that they were going to try out a spell, many were nervous...

The teacher then called up students one by one as they were told how to perform the spell, which was literally a fire magic spell...

'This is horrible... anyone can dodge a spell this slow!' He complained while his blank face slowly turned to a small frown.

'If these are kids are my future army, I would rather go alone... They have no talent! No a single one is in Heaven tier except for that party girl and her friend...' he observed his classmates with a keen eye which unnerved Sophia who saw him glance at her...

”Next up, Alexis Gladios!” The female Teacher shouted his name out loud.

Alexis came forward and stood infront him.

”So you're the new student everyone's been talking about!” She said and nodded while observing him.

'Another noble... no wait! something is different about him!' she thought inside her head but shook her thoughts.

”Well then, go ahead with the spell!” She encouraged him as Alexis nodded and sighed inwardly.

He raised his right hand at the wall that was enchanted by mana runes, he then used mana equivalent to that of a Earth Emperor tier, a red magic circle formed at the top of his hand.

The audience saw red wisps of fire mana swirling rapidly around his hand.

Alexis then decided to release the fireball into the wall...

It exploded with a burst of strong winds, this was the equivalent of a C4 bomb according to his knowledge.

The audience had to cover their eyes because of the dust that was now dancing freely in the air as it was disturbed by the explosion.

The wall was charred and showed signs of cracking but within seconds, It melded itself back to it's original form...

It was now spotlessly clean and showed no sign of being attacked.

Everyone who saw it was amazed, he did really well, while the attack was very similar to what the others did, the fact that their new classmate could do it too led them to be amazed at his work...

Alexis did not want people to think he was a genius, he would go at the pace of his classmates so that he wouldn't be disturbed...

He then went back to Sophia and Isabella, who were more than happy to welcome him, this incurred the wrath of the male population of the class as Alexis shook his head.

'Calm down Alexis... they are kids!' He told himself but if anyone went too far he would have no choice but to eradicate whoever crossed the line, from this world...

”Alexis, why didn't you make it bigger?” Sophia asked Alexis who groaned inside but decided to answer.

”Because it would bring me too much attention...” he replied and turned to her with a bland expression on his face.

Sophia giggled, many of the boys and girls in the Academy would show off their skills in hopes of getting the attention of others or the ones they admire, but the prince who came to her Academy wanted none of that...

”...Why are you laughing?” Alexis asked her earnestly, he was confused.

”Nothing of importance, your highness!” She said with a big smile and stared at Alexis who nodded slowly and watched the other kids perform...

”Psst! Sophia, stop staring at him... the boys are looking!” Isabella who felt a little left out whispered into Sophia's ear, the latter quickly turned around in embarrassment and glanced at her male classmates who glared at Alexis.

Alexis was inside his manor, he was seated comfortably on the luxury sofa set.

Everyonce in a while Florestine would feed him some fruits, mainly grapes... He felt like he was in heaven and all he did was laze around.

It has been a few months since he started studying at the Academy and thankfully there were no problems that required him to eradicate anyone.

Although he did get a little annoyed at a few boys who took him to a corner to intimidate him so that their ”boss” could have some alone time with Sophia.

The wannabe goons of whichever Kid ordered them to do such a thing, grabbed him by the shoulder, things didn't go to well for them and they ended up getting expelled before their parents could even say anything about it...

'Those were some good times... I still can't believe that there are kids that act like the mafia even at the tender age of ten...' he thought.

'They don't even live in the streets, how can they intimidate me?!' He scoffed loudly as Florestine looked at her master weirdly...

*BING!*

Alexis jumped off of his sofa and looked around cautiously.

'I swear to God, I heard that accursed noise!' He shouted inside his head.

”Show yourself!” He stated calmly while Florestien paled, she thought it was an intruder or worse... as assassin!

[Host, please do not be alarmed! I'm your Soul binded Mini A.I system.]

Alexis heard the voice again, it wasn't emotionless unlike a certain big blue screen, but the voice was still cold.

'...System?' He called out in his thoughts.

[Yes host?]

It answered!

Alexis sat down on the sofa with a relaxed expression and closed his eyes.

”Your highness, what was that?” Florestine asked Alexis who pat her head.

”Don't worry about it, I made a mistake” Alexis told her, she nodded meekly and proceeded to feed him some grapes.

'What the hell are you doing here?' He asked the system.

[Boss binded me to you, I'm sure Boss informed you!] It said as Alexis groaned.

He had indeed heard something like that, before he was thrown into the portal along with his knowledge of the other world...

'Why didn't you activate earlier on?' Alexis asked.

[Apologies host, I was rebooting myself after being sent in through the portal!]

Alexis who was savouring the grape put into his mouth swallowed it completely as his eyebrows twitched hearing it's reason.

It seems like that stupid blue screen is an ass to it's colleagues too...

'I see... now what?' He asked the system.

[Host can check his statistics! Think ”Statistics” and a green screen will be infront of you, do not worry Host, nobody else can see it!] It explained it's functions.

'Is that it?' Alexis wanted more information.

[You can also check the progress of your Quest, given to you by the Administrator, who expects a lot from you!] It said joyfully.

'Say system... all I have to do is develop this world's technology right?' Alexis asked the system.

[Affirmative Host, that is your Quest!] It said.

'Will you be helping me or do I have to this with the world?'

[I cannot help Host merely because I'm programmed to only show your statistics, Quest progress and letters and side quests given from the Administrator in which, you have the right to accept or decline. Your job is to help the world develop with a combined effort of the inhabitants]

'Say I make a modern weapon, leak it out to other countries and wage war on the world? Will that count as combined effort?' Alexis asked the system.

[..Yes]

The system answered, although it did sound a bit unwilling, Alexis now had a plan in mind...

”Let the race to arms begin...” he mumbled while Florestine who heard it was shocked and shivered.

It sounded like a declaration, a bold declaration heralding something that would most likely be considered as the darkest times of Terra...
