The Novel's Professor-Chapter 17 17: The Messiah And The Judge

Arcuied was having an eventful dinner at the cafeteria. He was with his supposedly self-proclaimed noble friend, Eugene, who was talking to his female classmate, Amber. Besides them, there was also his quirky seatmate, Xiao Long.

"…So why are you guys here again?" Arcuied asked with his tired eyes, they were too loud and high profile. They practically attracted all attention to them.

"What do you mean why? We're friends." Eugene said as he chuckled, beside him was Amber, who was shaking her head in annoyance.

"Eugene invited me," Amber replied as she continued while she looked at Eugene, "Don't mind him, it's just the first time someone at his age was better than him."

"…Right," Arcuied muttered a as he continued while looking at the seat beside him, "How about you?"

"That's a no-brainer, Arcuied. Geniuses always converge, they say." Xiao Long said as he nodded to himself, hungrily devouring his food.

'Who said that…?'

"Eh, just slow down okay?" Arcuied advised in concern, the man was eating like he was starved hungry for several weeks.

"Geniuses converge? Indeed." Eugene nodded as he heard the phrase, while Xiao Long was not a combat genius like him. He had to acknowledge him, as the man was a genius of Alchemy and Sorcery. How did he know? He had connections, that's all.

While they were merrily enjoying their dinner, a sound resounded in the cafeteria room.

Slap!

"How dare you look down on me, you low life!" An annoying small pitched voice resounded in the cafeteria as a loud slap hit a person.

Arcuied hurriedly turned his head to look at where the sound came from. The sound came from a student with an angry expression, the student had short blue hair and black eyes. The blue haired student had slapped a black haired student.

"Grovel in respect, you lowly peasant." The blue haired student growled as he kicked the black haired student, he spat as he looked down at the kneeling blackhairsd student.

"This is going too far," Arcuied muttered as he looked at the scene, his body screaming to move forward and protect the student. He didn't know, but whenever there was a problem, his body would react strongly to it. He didn't move yet because he wanted to know more about the situation.

"Indeed, it ruined our lovely afternoon." Eugene said coldly, he hated being interrupted the most when he was doing something. He could tolerate his mentors since they hold some degree of superiorty towards him. But he couldn't, and absolutely, wouldn't tolerate anyone not important, and at the same age as him at that, ruining his afternoon.

Eugene pushed the table as his chair moved backwards. His eyes infested with coldness and irritation, approached the scene.

"Well, he's quite serious." Amber whisteled as she looked at Eugene's back. While he may seem like a good person sometimes, innately he was a noble. He regarded himself as superior to anyone else, everything less of him was not his equal. As a time where his time is ruined by a person he deems lowly, he would be irrittated.

"What's he doing?" Arcuied asked Amber as he looked at Eugene slowly approaching the crowd in the scene. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

"Just watch." Amber replied with a smirk, In all honesty it was fun to see her friend be serious, it would either be a matter where he was angry or something important happened. The former was more enjoyable to watch than the latter.

Xiao Long stopped his ravaging of the food and peeked at the scene. Things seems to be interesting, he thought. He already had a small guess on what was happening, he experience such things in the past afterall.

Eugene quietly approached the crowd, when the students heard some footsteps they turned their backs. Whether they be peasant, or noble, all them took a step beside. Golden hair and blue eyes, a man of Pendragon.

"Hey." Eugene called out coldly as he looked at the scene with his eyes having a hint of irritation.

"Who dar—?!" The blue haired man growled as he turned to look at the person that disturbed him of his lecturing. He continued with sweat pouring down his forehead, "Ah your esteemed Pe—"

Slap!

"Do not adress my name, you cretin." Eugene said with despise as he removed the glove in his hand and slapped the blue haired man. He continued, "Did you know what you have just done?"

"No, no. My Gr—" The blue haired man replied rapidly only to be slapped by Eugene once more, his legs fell down as he kneeled.

"Your ignorance astound me," Eugene said, chuckling, as he looked down at the kneeling man, he continued with a smirk, "Blue hair? So you're from the lineage of small noble lineage Devagos?"

"Indee—" The blue haired man raised his head as he answered, hoping that Eugene knew his lineage and had some respect towards it. However, his face just got slapped again as his body fell.

"I didn't tell you to raise your head, insect." Eugene coldly said as he continued with his voice having a tinge of irritation, "You ruined my lovely afternoon."

Devagos wanted to protest in anger. However, he knew it was futile. The man he was facing was leauges superior to him in any aspect.

"Don't show your self upon me once more, man of Devagos." Eugene uttered with indifference as he left the scene.

Devagos who was kneeling, hurriedly got up and casted a hateful glance towards the black haired student that he was 'educating' earlier. It was all his fault, he thought as he left the room in indigance.

The black haired student, Danny, was awe struck at what happened. It was like an angel that descended into the world, with all it's elegance and mannerism, on his one order, everything was silenced.

Maybe not all nobles were not so bad, afterall.

"You sure did give him a beating he will never forget." Xiao Long commented as soon as Eugene came back, that was a satisfying ending for an arrogant useless spoiled noble.

"Did I?" Eugene asked innocently as he sat at his chair.

"Don't get too carried away" Amber replied as she looked at her stopwatch, it seemed time was up. She continued as she looked at the rest on the table, "Class is starting, let's go."

"…Already? What subject?" Arcuied asked in suprise, it seemed too sudden. However, it was not like he didn't want to go to class.

"Magic Theory, Professor Rio." Amber replied as she tapped her fingers in the table.

"Ah, that man." Arcuied muttered as he suddenly remember the feeling he felt when that professor looked at him.

"Is there any problem about him?" Xiao asked in curiosity as he fixed his uniform, preparing to go to class.

"No, there's nothing." Arcuied shook his head, he was just imagining things. No way that professor knew anything about him. Nobody knew. Not even him.

"Let's go." Eugene said as he stood up, waiting for the others to follow him.

"Wait, I need to go to the bathroom. Go on ahead." Arcuied said in hurry, truly he needed to go to the bathroom.

They all nodded their heads and continued forward.

—

Arcuied got out of the cafeteria and found the bathroom. He opened the door, and he was greeted with a suprising scene. Another violent scene.

Two students ganging up on one curly haired student. It was violent because their expressions suggested otherwise, the two students had an threatening expression and the curly haired one had a worried expression.

As Arcuied observed the scene, he realized both of the students that were ganging up on the curly haired person were twins. He decided to call them, A and B respectively.

"Hey, hey, y'da know why this is happening right?" Student A said as he put his hand in the wall, cornering the curly haired student. It seems they did not notice Arcuied.

"…W-what do you mean?" The curly haired student said cowardly as his eyes were close to crying.

"Y' dont know?! I mean, isn't it unfair?" Student B said, with his hands pressed together.

"Yeah, yeah! How come ya nobles have better shit than us when you're incompetetent as hell!" Student A said nodding to himself.

"That just meant you two are unlucky!" The curly haired student said with snot in his nose, he continued, "I-i can't…do anything about that!"

"The hell'? Ye'r looking down on us eh?" Student A said as he raised his hands, about to smack the curly haired noble. However, his hand never fell down. He felt a skin come in contact as a palm tighty held his wrist.

He turned his back in irritation to whoever who was obstructing them. He looked at the man that held his wrist. The man's hair snowy white, and eyes that were shing golden, while those were unique, what was more noticeable was the lack of compassion in the white haired man's eyes.

It was like justice, impartial and without mercy. A judge.

Arcuied held the wrist of Student A, his eyes stared coldly at the man. The act of violence againts a man without fault, and an act of having motive behind greed and envy, are something that was inside him couldn't tolerate.

"Do this again, and you're dead." Arcuied indifferently said as his eyes lacking compassion looked at the man. His body once again, screamed for him to move when the students ganged up on the other person. It was annoying and irritating so he moved.

Both students that were ganging up at the curly haired noble fell, pissing their pants in terror. Arcuied simply stared at them and opened the bathroom stall.

"Don't let yourself get dragged down." Arcuied said as he closed the door.

The curly haired noble, Carlos, stared in mesmerizing awe. The man with just a stare, silenced everything. It was like a judge of man. Only impartiality and authority. He yearned for that.
