53 Picturesque Banque (2/2)

Those that were once teary eyed and filled with sorrow became much calmer with the help of alcohol.

There were strange mixes of emotions that Christian observed

One was laughing while crying, attempting to hide the pain within her heart

Another became cold and frigid, keeping a distance from everyone and let out a tear every once in a while.

The oddities began as Christian also soon became drunk.

”Sir, shall we send a small team to spread glory of our name”

Although he couldn't see who the person was as the alcohol and loud noises messed with his brain, he still understood what the man was trying to get

”U-uh, yes”

Once hearing the reply, the man gracefully left and along with him were 3 other people.

Their faces didn't seem to important from what Christian could recollect but he shrugged it off

'Time to sleep, I guess'

Accepting that a hangover will be inevitable, Christian decided to sleep early.

...

The sun had already risen high into the sky and the night had long pass from the time Christian was awake.

Delicious food and divine drinks and the joyful atmosphere was one that will forever be remembered

'They may be pretending that the pain doesn't exist but one day they will face it'

Each step Christian made was in order to pave a way for success in the future.

Guiding everyone back to the academy, Christian still felt a hidden sense of pride that was similar to what an adult would feel for their successful child.

The academy was within their sightas well as a crowd of people

'Are they here to welcome us?'

Christian was stunned for a moment as he didn't think the hunt would bring forth that much attention however he still waved at them

Appreciating the time they took out of their free time to watch his return.

It was odd as their were quite a lot of mature faces that probably belonged to a teacher as well as a familiar face

The Head of Disciplinary Actions!

Crossed arm, Christian could hear him yelling when he was only a few metres away from the academy.

”CHRISTIAN, FOLLOW ME TO THE DEAN'S OFFICE!”

”...”

Christian didn't know what he did this time but he had a bad feeling of the outcome.

Two teachers immediately arrived before him and grabbed him before he could say anything.

A cloth was suddenly stuffed into his mouth that forced him to only whimper

”Hmmh...”

It was impossible to break out of their grip and the only thing Christian could do was swear in his mind and hope to exact revenge when he reached a higher cultivation stage.

'@#$%%#@$%$'

A sorrowful voice filled with disappointment reached Christian's ears

”Christian, I thought the first time was because you got framed. But this time... I can't help you. If you really did what I was told then you can only help yourself.”

'What did I even do?'
