At your service, my lady Prove your worth
For a moment I thought it was the student from the stables, it could have been better since the people standing now in front of us were already pulling out their weapons."I will only say this once. Leave our academy!"They were 5. A blonde guy with a shiny sword of gold seemed to be the leader. His shouts were so loud that a multitude of students surrounded us in no time.Some of them were openly supporting the blonde student. "Leave! You demons!" "Filthy commoners!" "You belong to the streets!"Whatever insult that may come to their minds was being spilled into our faces with the fervor of a million-prize winner.Stepping in front of Jasmine and Isabella I spoke to the student."Didn´t you hear the prince? We are also students from Xerxes, which means we can also ask for his help"My words touched a fiber. It was obvious considering the red now glowing from his face."Nonsense! I don´t know what trickery fooled the prince, but once he sees your true nature I´m going to be given the
At your service, my lady Where there is light
The people sitting around the humongous arena made of red bricks and black iron were shouting at us as if we were the most wanted criminals in this kingdom.And maybe in their eyes, we were."They seem rather expectant huh""No one is rooting for us""There´s Jasmine""She doesn´t count""Hahaha. Harsh""Hmph!"Isabella and I were standing at the east side of the contestant´s entrance. We were putting on the armor and weapons that we would use in the fight.We both chose to put on some light armor to protect our bodies over the thick coat that the school gave us as primal protection. Since we were more on the attacking side, using heavy armor seemed just unnecessary.After adding some protection for the chest, arms, and legs and we were almost set to go."I never thought you´d be using dual guns," I said looking at Isabella as she secured a belt with several magazines.On each side of her legs, there were empty cases where a couple of semi-automatic pistols were being loaded by the gi
At your service, my lady There is a shadow of hope
In the cabin was a giant torch, once it was ignited; the fight would start.Dominique and Isabella were discretely chatting between them, Opherio noticed this and scuffed at them while thinking to himself: "Useless".The irregulars smiled at each other, since they both were attracted to the human eye, the image was almost artistic. However, they were still irregulars, which turn the piece of art into a foul and obscene picture of monsters grinning at their execution.Opherion couldn´t wait anymore. Once the torch lightens, he will shove away every one to be the first one to cut into tiny bits the man who dared to challenge him despite his noble origins.A failure like them wouldn´t stand a chance against his water magic and swordsmanship. He has been appraised for being a talented user of both skills. A street fight like this was nothing but a method to ease his anger and hatred toward the errors of the world.Opherio looked at the torch. Siegfreid was pointing his palm at the empty o
At your service, my lady A deal with...
The capital was upside down because the rumblings of that cry for freedom still reverberated through the whole city.The figure of that young man who threw a fist at those that chose to ignore the cruel and horrible reality of the kingdom. The questions and thoughts that no one dared to express because of the fear that hanged their necks with the words of "justice" as the executioner.That and much more happened because of that young man who was now in the principal´s office receiving his fair prize."In the name of Xerxes, I make available your victory against the noble Dominus and guarantee your, and your companion´s place as noble students of this institution. Congratulations, Mister Dominique, Mistress Isabella"We exchanged a high five and received a medal for winning the first fight in the academy´s semester.The combat was settled with any of the parties agreeing on betting something apart from expelling, so there was no need for us to stay and negotiate anything with the lose
At your service, my lady Give me your word
At the president´s office, inside Nicholas´head.It was faint, but I can swear I saw it.At that moment, in the arena, when he rose his fist.The future. A glimpse of it.One where he ruled with many people at his side. And there was an army, an invincible army that would be the bastion against everything that could harm this kingdom.There would be irregulars and nobles fighting together as one. People would gather around them to congratulate them on their victories. And I would be at my home, with a beautiful wife and children with smiles on their faces. Living peacefully.And he would be there, on the throne, with his forces ready to strike down the enemies before him.History will talk about us from this moment onwards. I must make sure that the tales are worth listening to.That´s why you have to ascend, Dominique. Even higher than me.You will be the weapon I use to force my father into submitting the throne. I will show him your power. Your bravery and greed.And once you mar
At your service, my lady Determination
With heavy steps and a sad face. Isabella was walking through the halls as tears ran down her cheeks.There was a pain in her chest that was too embarrassing to show. It was because the only source of this nasty feeling was no one but her.She didn´t want to accept it. Not like this. Not with that woman.Luck was not on her side since the day she was born as a commoner with irregular magic. There were struggles in every corner of her life. Money, friends, love. All those things that people enjoy so much are things that seem just like distant dreams for her.Joining this academy was because her mother had begged her to try it. She had done so much for her, so refusing was not an option.With little hope to face any changes, Isabella accepted and signed up to be a student in the academy. But what was the first thing that they told her?That she was different. A threat. A mistake.So much to even be marked as a demon by the academy itself.Isabella wanted to curl up and scream. Throw a p
At your service, my lady Fame and... Friends?
With our little meeting finished, Jasmine and Isabella accompanied me to our classroom. We had lost the first lesson since Nicholas called us, but the teachers noticed so there shouldn´t be problems with our late arrival.I would have liked to speak more with Véronica, but she was busy with the council´s work and her own classes. We agreed to meet during lunch break anyways, so all I need to do now is be patient.As we walked through the hallways I noticed that most students around us were whispering and looking at our direction with curious eyes. It was time to change classrooms so it wasn´t strange for them to be walking around school.Both girls also noticed this and showed triumphant smiles.What with these two?I could understand the good feeling that comes with victory, but they seem more like the owner of a dog whose proud of its performance.Am I the dog?...I ditched the thought as I saw the classroom´s door. Students were still entering so there was no need to knock an anno
At your service, my lady Lunch time, part 1
"Dominique! Let´s get some lunch!""That was the plan, wasn´t it?"The class was over in a couple of hours, and the teacher in charge had arrived late because he got lost on his way to the classroom.Nobody cared much since it was day one. And honestly, in a classroom filled with young adults, it´s kind of hard to find someone eager to get lectured by an old man."Should I get your lunch, master?"Jasmine came from the back and placed her face dangerously close to mine while saying that. Isabella whore a tired face when she saw us."Let´s get to the green zones first, I don´t want to waste anyone´s time" I responded with an awkward smile as I got up from my seat."As you wish"Isabella also abandoned her seat and grabbed Jasmine´s hand to pull her away from me."Aren´t you a bit close, maid?""Not at all, that distance is normal between us. Not only that, we usually are even closer~"Jasmine winked gracefully as a sly grin appeared on her lips. Isabella´s cheeks became redder with fru
