The intensity within his eyes never wavered even after Javier's body dropped to the ground like a freshly cut down tree, and the panic that spread to his friend's expressions grew palpable as they moved in to assist Javier.
The rest of the Class grew wary, unable to rationalize what had just occurred while Lecturer Bishop approached the two students.
"Raffaelo Jun! Attacking a student is prohibited during classes". He stated firmly, but his smirk couldn't hide what he was truly thinking.
Raph closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them as he looked up at the tall and muscular figure of their Lecturer.
"Sorry, How could I have possibly attacked him?" Raph asked with an innocent smile plastered on his face.
Perhaps Crown Bishop had forgotten who he was dealing with, but this case wasn't that difficult to understand.
Other than the great families and some of the Spectators during the Ranking Battles, no one was aware of his ocular abilities, and Raph prided himself on that. It was a trump card against fools who crossed the line.
Crown Bishop was left startled by the statement as he turned towards the unconscious body of Javier, carried by Yon Duke.
"Take him to the infirmary," He said with a sigh.
'How is he unconscious?' He thought, unable to phantom what had just occurred. He could have blamed it on Raph's use of spells or aura, but he would have noticed if Raph had used aura and the Jun household didn't use spells or magic, except for some certain figures.
He turned towards Raph, his gaze lingering on the eyes of Raph, which took the shape of two white moons with a ghostly hue. Something about those eyes gave him goosebumps, but that could be rationalized as his eyes just being particularly weird.
'How can someone be born with eyes so white?'.
He chuckled at a thought that crossed his mind. "Come with me after the classes, Raffaelo Jun. I still need to question you"
Crown Bishop walked away from Raph, leaving him enthralled in his thoughts as he began to hasten the students in returning to their theater for the theory class.
"Alright, Ladies and Gents, to your Theater! We need to begin the basics of physical ed. Some of you don't even know where your gastrocnemius muscle is located".
A slight grumble swept through the group of students, but they slowly began to get up and retreat to their theaters.
Raph watched all this happen, his expression unwavering from the coldness that couldn't dissipate.
'Insulting my dead father? Now that's something'. He thought when he felt a familiar presence tap him on his shoulder.
"You're something, Young Master Raffaelo"
Darell said with a sigh as memories of the Rankings battle played out in his mind, and one particular one remained fresh as he turned towards Ciara, who was walking away from the field. "She doesn't seem hunted".
Raph glanced at the girl, then at Darell. "She's stronger than she looks, and I was somewhat able to resolve the misunderstanding.....I think".
"I see....Well, I'll be going then" He was about to walk away when Raph held his shoulder.
"Lest I forget, It's Raph, not Young Master anything; let Jane know as well."
Darell's eyes widened a little in surprise as he nodded in affirmation.
Raph let him go, and the boy walked away, searching through the students until he located Jane and ran up to him.
'Hmm...when did they become that close?' Raph thought though he had expected them to get closer sooner or later.
'She shouldn't even be here but it was expected'. As he watched them from the corner of his eyes, Crown began their conversation.
"What did you do to Javier?" He asked, his tone laced with curiosity, but a sternness and seriousness that could only belong to a teacher was etched on his expression.
Raph turned to him, then looked away, and with a sigh he replied. "What do you mean, Mr. Crown? Did you see me raise an arm against the boy?"
Crown sighed as well. For some reason, he didn't seem to want to take that response just like that.
There was silence for a while but then Crown Bishop started.
"Javier is different from you lot that calls yourself powerful."
'Hm? Huh? Where is this coming from?' Raph thought, a raised brow on his face.
"...How so?" He asked.
For a moment, it felt like crown was recollecting a memory, a memory that would most likely explain his next statement.
"Javier is Mayura chosen". He turned around to meet Raph's gaze. "He's someone that has the protection and blessing of our goddess. Our hero. He's not someone you can touch without getting punished".
'Hero? The fuck is that?'. Raph found this rather amusing.
His past life had no such 'hero'. The only heroes that existed were the people who joined in and died during the Demonic War, so how the heck was he supposed to take this?
"So, you want to punish me, but you have no evidence, so you're trying to persuade me into giving myself in?" Raph said, ignoring Crown's stare, and focusing on the Princess and Rana. They seemed to be on their last lap.
'Hang in there Princess!'.
"I don't think we have such 'things' called heroes in our age," He said after a bit of contemplation. "I don't believe heroes are people chosen from gods, but rather people that prove their worth on the battlefield, to defend their nation and humanity to the last drop of their blood."
An amused chuckle escaped Crown's lips and in the next second, he burst into a fit of laughter, holding his stomach as he did so.
"Ha...Young Master Raph, you're something, you know that.
Your journey continues on empire
You act like you're all that, even when your family is on the verge of being absorbed by the King".
Raph snapped his gaze at him, an unpleasant expression etched on his face as he furrowed his brow.
"You're something as well, Mr. Crown.
Do you not realize who is speaking, or do you think the Jun household is dead already just because my father passed away".
A cold and icy aura emitted from his eyes.
"No. I hope not, because if you do., I will have to convince myself that they are a lot more fools than I thought in this school".
Raph's tone was as cold as his ice and the aura that emitted in small amounts was just as cold. Crown could have felt that coldness if Raph wasn't controlling so it only remained visible to him, but Crown could have guessed that he may have crossed the line. But who the fuck cares?
"Pfft. Say that after you're actually free from the King's grasps. Foolish Great families". He turned away from the boy's gaze, disregarding his statement on the surface, but he knew something about what Raph said hit a nerve. "Get back to class, and when classes are over, and you're done with your Monitor matters, go to the Disciplinary Committee to receive your punishment.
Now leave".
