Chapter 3

“Aaron you dumbass! Take a look! “

Aaron caught me before I fell to the ground. And now Hela’s so mad about Aaron and I can really tell that she’s concerned.

“Tsk. She’ll get over it in a minute. It’s even worse in our training.“

That’s all Aaron said and handed me to Hela.

That idiot! He doesn’t have gentleness in his body. But truth to be told you just lost that odd feeling because Aaron was right our training was the worst.

“Are you okay?! “

Hela asked incredulously because we straightened up again. I just nodded at her and chased Aaron to punch him in the face.

“You jerk! You didn’t even say there was such a thing! Idiot! “

“Hey! It hurts! “

I rolled my eyes at him and stopped him. He wasn’t hurt maybe a little. I hope we get hurt.

“If I told you would anything change? It’ll be the same anyway.”

I just stared at him because he had a point and he also caught me so maybe that’s okay.

“You guys are cute.”

Hela said suddenly and laughed. My cousin glared at him while I just shrugged. Aaron’s like my brother he’s not gentle but he’s overprotective sometimes just like his father.

And since I was busy earlier with my cousin’s silliness I didn’t notice the beauty of the academy. There are tall buildings but vines are growing there. I also see butterflies in different colors. They also have a large fountain in the most central part of the academy. And in every pathway, there is a glow.

“Wow.” It’s the first time that escaped my mouth when I noticed the place.

“Yeah wow, that was also the one I said when I came in here.”I nodded to Hela. I didn’t know you were so beautiful here. Despite the rumors I hear at this school, there are also good things.

We continued walking until we came down a flight of stairs.

“Where are we going?”

“Headmaster’s.” My cousin’s frugal answer. I just followed them.

“Where are my things?” I asked without noticing that my belongings no longer followed us.

“Ah. The faculty already took care of it. By now, it’s in the dorm.”

I grabbed my cousin when it suddenly got dark along the way. “Chicken.” I frowned at him. It’s not because I’m used to it that I’m not afraid he’s really annoying.

When it finally became clear, I pushed my cousin. I think I pushed him harder because he fell on the wall. And because it’s normal for my cousin to do that, I just left him and followed Hela.

I hope we get to where we’re going, I’m tired of walking, we’re embarrassed by my dress, aren’t we. It’s good that Hela didn’t criticize. This is how I dress but when I saw what he was wearing, it seemed like I wanted to change my clothes.

“Oh. You’re here, Iris. “The headmaster my godfather said casually.

“Hi godfather!” That’s all I said.

“You’re his what?”Hela asked.

“Godfather Hela, are you deaf?”Aaron replied for godfather. The godfather just shook his head at them.

“Am I not supposed to call you that?” I innocently question him.

“Uh no princess, of course, you can call me that.”

I smiled at him. Thank god, because I’m not used to calling him “sir” and I guessed he’s not strict.

“So you burned your invitation?”I smiled awkwardly at him.

“Uh ...”

“What? You fucking burned the invitation? “Hela asked incredulously.

“Didn’t you know that you’re so damn lucky because you’re invited in?”

“Uhm no?”

“Unbelievable!”My cousin just laughed at her.

“Now that you’re here I just want to tell you that you have no other choice but to continue here.”I nodded at him. I know that.

I knew what I entered and I took responsibility for it. “And I don’t want you using your power to get out of here okay?”And now he sounds like a headmaster.

Why is he thinking that I’m gonna escape? Is his school ugly? And since I had no plan I nodded.

“Good. Now Hela escort her to your dorms. Aaron you stay. “

My cousin nodded and Hela pulled me.

“What are they gonna talk about?”She just shrugged. I should probably keep my curiosity to myself.

“This one we’re crossing now is station 1 of the academy.”

“The academy has three stations. The first station is the school buildings. And the second station is where we do t-training. And you see that? “

she pointed many students far away. “That’s the third station. There are our dorms as well as those leisures. There are hotels and restaurants there. “

What? There’s a hotel and restaurant inside an academy ?! That’s just awesome. I bet the council really spend a fortune on making this school from their gates to their well buildings and such. I know the school was founded a hundred years ago but it feels new.

“Why have a hotel? The restaurant is okay because you might be picky about foods so ... “

She smirked at me. “Hotel of course everyone has needs and when in the dorm there is no privacy.”

I don’t know but I blushed at what he said! Seriously I know we’re at the right age but gosh! I’m still not comfortable with that kind of talk. Most of my cousins are boys so sometimes I hear that but what the hell? Hearing it from Hela is so just ... never mind.
