Chapter 3
- Zenith's Point Of View
- Two days later, I said goodbye to Grandpa. Today we are leaving for the Academy…
- Psh! I only brought a few clothes and left the others in the mansion, they are too heavy so they will only interfere.
- Davao National Airport
- "Oh? Why are you carrying so little clothes?" Four eyes opened for me when I arrived, what about her?
- "I'll just buy some if I don't have enough clothes to wear," I said reluctantly.
- "Hmm, it's up to you. Is that ready?" will she like these until we get there? Tsk.
- I just looked at our plane, "I thought your school was secret? Why do you have to board there?"
- She smiled, "Who said our plane is public? The Academy has its planes, we also have jets if you want…" Besides, I boarded the plane she was referring to first, I just followed.
- I don't care about the jet? Rocket and spaceship that I have. Psh!
- When I got on, she was right. There were only two of us on board here except for the pilot. The four eyes sat in front and I had no intention of sitting next to her so I stood at the end sit. After that, I just went to sleep to avoid those four eyes, maybe later I'll just get annoyed, I'll be killed…
- Zzzzzzzzzzz…
- I woke up, feeling the plane coming down, I looked out the window to see outside. We are in a lack of woods, is that it? I saw that the four eyes moved and it went down so I did the same. We opened the stationary black car, I looked at Four Eyes and it was also looking at me.
- "Let's ride again, this car will take us to the Academy," she said with a smile, I just approached and got in the car.
- "What place is this?"
- "Puerto Galera, we're in Oriental and we've been on the air for seven hours before."
- I was looking for, "So, won't you blindfold me?"
- She looked at me with a frown, "Blindfold? There's no need for that since I offered you about this, I trust you."
- I turned away and just turned my head to the window, we were passing through thick woods.
- "Is your school at the top of the mountain so we're going through only trees?" caught the question.
- "Nah, the Academy is located behind Tamaraw Falls. That's where the school stands, it's a building that's 3,456 meters high and has 250 floors. The Warriors Academy is in the most central part of Warrior City, it's run by one person while three officers are running here and I am one of them While Warrior City consists of 26 Street, that is from A to Z, the place where the Warriors live and you'll be joining them. There are also rankings for Warriors and so if I'm the one judging by what rank you are I can say you deserve Rank 16, Class A. But there are three classes to choose from, Class S where the Warriors are Ten members, Class A where you don't seem to be included, and Class Z where freshman warriors or beginners are taught. You passed my enrollment but you still need to show others what you can do and there your training exam as a warrior will begin. Listen to me, because I should have explained this to you earlier when we were on the plane but you were going to sleep soundly so I haven't woken you up yet. I know it's your job to kill but I hope you still stop killing inside the academy especially if it's also a warrior," she explained at length.
- Tss, I don’t care about the law. I won't move them but just don't overdo my patience.
- "I will follow your law but I also have my law, when someone comes back at it... I will not hesitate to end you all," I said annoyed.
- "Here we are..." I heard her say and I saw the waterfall she was referring to earlier, it was very beautiful.
- I was suddenly surprised by a floating path in the water that enters the waterfall, is the academy really behind that?
- Hmm, the one who built it was cunning and not easy for the opponent to see. When we got inside the waterfall, we went through a tunnel and saw the vast city.
- It seems like an ordinary town in a province... But there is one that competes with my attention, the tallest building in the middle of the city, none other than…
- Warrior's Academy.
- Many people greeted us when we stopped in front of the building, Four Eyes and I went down at the same time and she was immediately approached by two men and a woman who was not far from her age.
- "You're always late ah?" opened to her by the man in the hat.
- "You're still not used to Palm, Rhimean. She always wants the grand entrance…" another armed man said excitedly.
- I just looked at Four Eyes. "Psh! Stop talking nonsense if you don't want to fly!" I was stunned by her insult, first time?
- I feel like the woman looked at me.
- "Tell me, Palm, is she the one you're referring to?" she asked.
- Me? Four Eyes turned to me and smiled, it was me. "That's her, Queen Genesis," Four Eyes replied. Queen Genesis?
- "It's good that she's back with you, Welcome to Warrior's Academy, sister. " The Queen gazed at me but I ignored her.
- "Uhm, don't mind her. That's just the way she is, Queen. But you won't be disappointed…" Four Eyes replied, I looked at them all.
- "Where did you find that? She doesn't seem interested…" I heard him say, the guy wearing a hat called Rhimean.
- "Is she really good that you let her do things? Maybe… you just invented what we heard from Queen Genesis." And I don't act. I rushed to him quickly but like Four Eyes, he immediately defended.
- "Whatever those four eyes invented, I don't care but your judgment of me is an exaggeration," I said coldly with emphasis, looking scared.
- Almost everyone here was also surprised, "W-What do you think you're doing?!" his question was trembling so when the others formed I immediately broke its defense and aimed the knife at his neck.
- "One move, he's dead .. one mumble, you're dead. Just one wrong step of at least one of you, you're all done…" I said deeply.
- Four Eyes immediately intervened and reminded them, "Stop that and it's easy for her to do that." She looked at me.
- "Zenith? We've already talked about this." The others followed her so I released the guy called Rhimean and hid the knife.
- "The next time he breaks my law, you won't be able to stop me anymore," I said seriously to Four Eyes and she turned to her friend who wears a hat.
- "It's all your fault! You're too judgmental, that's why she did it! What did you get? Aish! Just thank me and listen to me." She roared at this, the Rhimean just scratched his head.
- "I didn't know she's demonic that you found, tsk! I almost die there ah!" but Four Eyes shot him.
- "There you are again! Can you be Rhimean? Just shut your mouth and I will fly you away when another word comes out!" it's a pile.
- "It's too sensitive that you got…" said the armed man.
- "You're also like him, Chester! I… I didn't get her and she has no interest in us, she just wants to come in here." Correcting it.
- "I think that's enough for you to stop, right Guys? Palm invite her because of her potential and that's reason enough for her to come in here," the Queen said gently, she was also one of those who didn't even say a word when I almost kill the one with her.
- "I'm sorry, Queen," the three said at once.
- "You did well earlier but your attempt to end us all is still wrong. Tell me, what's your name?" Queen Genesis turned to me.
- "Zenith. That's all I can answer you until you say yours." I said.
- "Is that it? Let me introduce myself… I'm the leader of Warrior's Academy, my name is Queen Genesis Akari—"
- "Zenith Maure Aspen, that's my name." I cut her off and everyone was shocked. That's enough for me.
- "Hmm, Aspen? Are you from the famous family of assassins?" she asked, making me smile.
- "I'm the only grandchild of Zilver Aspen, I'm a dying man," I answered straight.
- The people here were even more shocked, "What are you?! Palm! All we need is a savior n, not a murderer!"
- "Can you just shut up? You don't even know!" irritated response of Four Eyes.
- "What doesn't anyone know?! She's the one who said it! She's a murderer and you round it from the Aspen family? Are you out of your mind?!" its louder cry.
- "If you don't want me to continue what happened to your colleague, it's better to just keep quiet… killing is my job but if there is no other reason I don't kill anyone because I don't just kill but what you do, you just give me the reason to make death easier for you," I stressed and turned to Queen Genesis.
- It smiled. "You have nothing to worry about, guys, let's trust Palm. I know the Aspen family and they don't enjoy killing."
- "Zenith, let's go inside the Academy…" said Four Eyes.
- Annoyed I followed them up, "Let's go before I run out of patience."
