"Oh, there they are. Over here!"As soon as we were getting near a white kiosk surrounded by a ring of flowers, the people sitting in there greeted us with a wave of their hand."My, my. What a surprise is to see you surrounded by new friends""It was a nice chance to meet new people, so we just took it, right?"Isabella nodded with a smile on her face and I sat in one of the chairs. My place got me right across Véronica, so I had a nice view of her beauty.Naturally, Isabella took her seat beside me.This was premeditated, because now, Nicholas was in front of her. Both stared at each other for a couple of seconds before greeting each other."Thank you for allowing us to eat with you, Prince Nicholas""Please, you don´t have to use such a formal treat with me. We are all students of the same academy, and you will be part of Dominique´s disciplinary committee, so it´s better if you talk to me more informally""... I think I´ll restrain from that for the moment. I don´t want to cause u

The sun was high, and the smell of a variety of foods was flooding the air along with the sounds of people chatting and laughing. We had a nice atmosphere that made the food taste even better."I can´t believe the prince is eating with those demons...""Who are those lowly nobles? How dare they eat with the council?""They must have tricked the prince! Surely they used a cursed artifact or their vile magic!"Or at least that was the case when you weren´t focused on the surroundings.People were gossiping about us in some indiscreet manner. Some of them even stared at us without mercy. I was able to feel their jealousy and disgust as their grim faces showed me their thoughts.Well, I was already expecting that... And I´m sure Nicholas and the others are aware too...Eating with the prince and the council was not just a thing I wanted to do as friends, but also as a message to the whole academy.We can stay close to the prince when you can´t.That´s what Isabella and I were telling the
At your service, my lady This may be a long day...
Classes ended without many interesting things to do. Isabella and I left the classroom with Jasmine and our new group of friends. We stayed together until we reached the stables. Once there, each of us separated and went their way. "Is someone going to pick you up, Isabella?""I´ll take the public carts, my family can´t afford a personal drake for me""I see. Do you want me to give you a ride?"She smiled and tilted her head."Thank you, but I´m fine. I just have to walk a little""Well all right, I´ll be seeing you tomorrow then"I jumped onto Twilight´s back and helped Jasmine to get behind me."See you tomorrow, Miss Isabella"Jasmine pressed her chest closer to my back and enveloped my hips with her arms."... See you tomorrow, Jasmine"Isabella was smiling, but I wasn´t able to feel any good emotion from her.Without further ado, Jasmine and I waved goodbye to Isabella as Twilight got us to the exit of the academy. Since this was the time when all the students were l

The way to the blacksmith was not as peaceful as I wanted it to be. For good or worse, Verónica and Jasmine exchanged insults until I got tired of them and personally asked them to stop.I had heard that people that deeply trust each other tend to be mean, but I can´t believe that right now, at least not with these two.I also had taken off my school coat, it was not obligatory to wear it outside the academy´s hours, so I took advantage of the permission. "It´s been a while since I have been to the market" said Verónica while staring at the posts."Well, if you have time to spare, we can get a snack or two""Really? Is that okay?""Sure thing, I was going to buy some things anyway"Her face suddenly got brighter, it was adorable how much she had gotten excited by that suggestion.Now there is no reason to not do it."How about you, Jasmine?""I´ll accept any gift from you, even food""That´s good to know, now let´s see what´s hot"To get into the market I had to leave Twilight in a p
At your service, my lady Reunion of an old man
The sound of a bell announced our arrival. The walls were covered with a variety of armor and weapons of different shapes and sizes. An adult male was looking at us from the counter. His grumpy face and the gray of his hair gave me a pretty clear idea of his character."You are free to see whatever catches your eye, but if you break it you pay for it""Understood, thank you"With that short exchange of words, I went to the wall with fire guns. Mine was still in good shape, but it was a regular pistol that the troopers of Master Herion receive when they start their duties. The same goes for my pistol. They are both of good quality, but I´d like to have something more personal and powerful."Is there anything that you like, master?""Mmm... Everything looks good but... I don´t see anything especially outstanding""Is that so? We could ask at the counter for special products""I guess we are doing that"Right when we were about to walk toward the counter a deep voice called me."If you d

"Hear me out, sinners! For your judgment has arrived!""In the name of the spirits, kneel and bow obedience!"People heard the ruckus and gathered around the group of men swinging a fine-looking banner. Whispers of all sorts filled the air as a man holding a book shouted with the full power of his lungs."It is time for repentance! It is time to seek forgiveness! IT IS TIME TO PRAISE THE ELEMENTS!""IT IS TIME" Followed the rest of the zealots in unison.A tiny crowd was formed around these men, their attention was inspired by curiosity and annoyance."What are you guys on about?" Asked a woman."Is it not obvious little glimpse? We are here to share the will of the elements. To give you their wisdom and clarity"The leader of this cult grabbed the hand of the woman and led her to his side."But for this, you must first be reborn. You have to accept your failures and mistakes. And to ensure your full devotion you must be punished""Punished? Now why would I want that?"The woman retri

My hands were sweaty. It´s already 5 minutes since I´ve been staring at the knob. I´m unable to move an inch forward.Who would have known that my greatest enemy would be myself?"Master... Could you open the door already? It´s getting cold out here""... Aren´t you supposed to be with the other servants?""I´m sleeping with you tonight. I have to make it even with that blondie""......"Not saying another word I used my shadows to move Jasmine away from the main house. She did a little "Yeep!" sound when she was engulfed by my magic."Well, that takes care of that... Now... Let´s just get this over with..."Taking a deep breath to gather my courage I turned the knob and entered the building. I was hoping that everyone would be asleep right now, but my thoughts were proven wrong due to the dim light shining at the end of the hallway."Dominique, is that you? Please come here, my boy"It was the voice of the man who was now the head of the Yatra house. Astolf Vea Yatra. I reluctantly

It has been a week since I got into the academy. I´m already known by most of the school and there have been moments where I was forced to engage in duels with other nobles.I beat every single one of them with the help of Isabella, and now we are famous as a duo of unbeaten irregulars. Jasmine has been getting madder at me for not being more cautious about how I spend my time with Isabella, but I´m sure that there´s nothing to worry about. I already told her how much she matters to me as a friend. And I´ve been arranging times for her to be alone with Nicholas to improve their relationship.So far they seem to be getting closer, but I feel like there´s still a wall between them. Something is not allowing them to reach each other´s hearts, but I can´t get to know what it is..."Maybe I should put them both in a locked room...""Put what in a room?""Ah! No, it´s nothing. Just mumbling...""Haha. Somehow, you are always with your head on the clouds""Maybe your recent disappearances ha
