13 Revenge (1/2)

”Let me ask you again, who are you and what do you need?” I asked again with a smirk plastered all over my face.

She stuttered, ”W-who are you?”

”Fenix.” Aaand this answer doesn't help her at all. ”Anyway can you finally answer my questions?” I used my more childlike tone to wake her up.

And it worked! She shook her head and frown came back to her face, ”I am Headmaster of this academy! How dare you scold and even attack me in my school?!”

'It was just now that I recognized this voice. This was the voice that helped me in my Enrollment Examination! They are the same person! But why would Headmas... Headmistress herself help me to enrol the school?'

I chuckled, ”I am so sorry about that, can be Headmistress merciful enough and forgive me for my ungrateful behaviour in her presence?”As if I was sorry! I let her eat all my crap. Let's see how long she can bear with it.

”You are out of your mind! You little bastard get on your knees and beg for mercy or... *cough* *argh*”

”What. Did. I. Say. About. Threatening. Me?” My voice was calm and as I held her by her neck in the air. But this was this calm voice that left made her whole body shivering. It was that I was stronger than her if we fight I think she would utterly destroy me. Yet, Bloodline Pressure kicked in. Although I wasn't sure what race was she, I knew for sure she isn't pureblooded human. Reason for that is that she herself leaks aura similar to myself. She should be descendant of the demigod. However the purity of her bloodline is not even close enough to compare to mine, hence absolute suppression.

When I saw her crying I thought she just wants me to feel pity for her and then apologize to her. However, those tears felt... Real. I slowly put her to the bed, released her hoping I won't regret releasing her free.

And that was the right choice he didn't regret even countless thousands of years in the future. But he had no way to know it right now.

I waited until she calmed down, restrained my Divine Aura and gently, yes, gently asked, ”So can you finally say what you want from me? And this time without threatening me.”

As word threaten rolled of my tongue she involuntarily shivered.

Nice sign, she won't threaten me ever again.

Then silence occupied the room and all fear and anxiety gradually faded away from Headmistress. She slowly asked me, ”What race are you?”

”Why do you ask something you already know the answer to?” My question answered it in an instance.

”Why is your Bloodline Suppression so strong? I felt like a couple of mountains were falling on me... I couldn't breathe for a while. Please, can you tell me?”

”No... Name.” I replied.

”...” Silent, she gazed at me with a questioning look.

”Tell me your name and I'll answer you.”

Although she was silent, I felt she was struggling internally. At last, she answered, ”Celestia...”

'Hmm Celestia quite an usual name... Headmistress Celestia... Headmistress... School... Academy... Royal Academy... ROYAL ACADEMY OF GODDESS CELESTIA?!!!'

Shocked I looked at her and she weakly smiled, ”I know what are you thinking about and indeed I am the Goddess Celestia, *sigh* at least was...”

It was right now for the first time of the whole encounter that I was stupefied. 'Although I am pervertedly strong for my age and Bloodline aura is straight over-powered, she shouldn't be this weak, right?'

She read my expression way too perfectly and said, ”I know you think I shouldn't be this weak, but I was injured 800 years ago and almost lost my life. It should be a blessing that I can live but to me, it's a goddamn curse!” She looked like she was sad but on reality, it looks like extreme hate, loathing, pain and unwillingness to stay weak.

”Although it's quite pitiable you got hurt, how it is possible that you are still alive and can cast magic.”
