Lord Daruvar rushed to administration and seeing him with a dazed girl. The young woman found her quite cute and gave her a blue robe with a white school flag. 

The sign of the school was wondrously the Phoenix, so Kendra liked it quite a lot. "How pretty."

The woman chuckled. "Yes, you are."

Her words made Lord Daruvar roll his eyes. "Elder Somi, could you stop trying to steal my students?"

"Elder Daruvar, I understand, but isn't she cute?" Elder Somi was about to pinch her cheeks when Lord Daruvar his Kendra behind him. With a pout, she stopped and winked at the flabbergasted child. "See you later, cutie."

When they went out Kendra couldn't stop her curiosity. "What was that about?"

He had to laugh about her foxy expression. It seems this child had the wrong idea. "No, we are not together and yes I know her for a long time."

"Oooh. I see." With a slight smile, Kendra just winked at him and made him speechless.

Lord Daruvar suddenly felt an urgency to explain. "Really, we are just fellows cultivators. There is not much between us."

"Right. The way she scanned you, I fear that you might be oblivious about her feelings. Isn't that mean? Or are you ignoring it?" Kendra could see that they were indeed quite amazingly cute together, but or both couldn't see, or Elder Somi just accepted it as it is.

Stop meddling! Kendra almost wanted to hit her own mouth and just became quiet again.

Lord Daruvar misunderstood her silence and wanted to speak more but they were already in front of the library.

Library itself looked quite amazing even from far. Five levels and each level had strange signs on it. Runes again. Does it mean I could find a way to use them?

As she entered a few people inside froze as they saw Lord Daruvar with a strange girl that calmly walked behind him. But seeing his icy smile they rushed away. 

He was not only Elder, but he was also a teacher as well and if he gives tasks, it usually becomes big trouble. This child probably will get one by of those strange tasks Lord Daruvar was famous for.

Kendra saw them scurrying away and chuckled. "Elder, ate you really that scary?"

He turned his smiling face and narrowed his eyes. "You will see. I do not plan to let you be too comfortable. When you get the scroll from the librarian now, you will have only time until that candle there doesn't lose its power."

Kendra looked at the thin candle in the corner and saw that it was completely burned out. With big eyes, she saw him bringing her huge scroll and opened it in front of her.

An almost five feet long scroll opened up and made her speechless. "I will need half a day even to read it. To learn it, I need a few days." 

She could be considered a normal student. But she knew that it will be hard to lean everything in one minute.

Lord Daruvar smiled at her and made her step back. "In that case, you must pay the punishment."

"How much?" She got five spirit stones from the administration and fifty metal coins. 

"Oh no. I have my own stones, don't worry. You need to cultivate for two months straight and then rise at least five levels. In all elements. If you do that, I will let you do tasks. Stay in the city for three days. You have three days to learn it. We have many cultivators. Three days. Understood?" He took the scroll back and smiled brightly at the pale looking cultivator. "You heard her task? Your duty is to make sure she stops learning in three days." Lord Daruvar had a wicked smile as he pushed Kendra out, while the young man suddenly felt he could breathe again.

Other cultivators came back and asked him in curiosity. All they could hear from him was how cruel Lord Daruvar is.

"What about the girl?" One of the female cultivators asked in worry.

"She dared to ask him is he really that scary and he gave her three days to learn basic scroll. Three days! Not only that. She has rainbow powers. She has to rise them all to the fifth level in two months! I can't even think how that poor child should to that in such a small amount of time." The cultivators were visibly worried about her.

"Elder Daruvar is truly cruel. If she doesn't handle that, next is the washing of walls and cleaning of latrines. Poor child." The female cultivator shook her head and sighed. 

Another female cultivator came from one by f side rooms and smirked. "So what? Lord Daruvar chose her to be his personal student, proclaiming her under his protection. She has to start from the beginning. Cleaning latrines is not a bad job for her."

The group of young cultivators saw the woman leaving and they shook their heads. "That child has now to evils on her back. Talaka is infatuated with Elder Daruvar. She hates any female that is less than ten feet near him."

After talking a bit more, they dispersed while the woman that left had suddenly icy smile. "Dare to get close to my man, let's see how hard your life will become from now on."

She went to the administration office and saw Elder Somi and froze. She is the only woman on Lord Daruvar's side that she couldn't even touch. With a fake smile, she came closer. "Elder Somi, I thought you are in the cultivation room."

Elder Somi looked at her and then and then at the cultivator that peered at the woman with a red face. What is going on here? She is definitely crazy about that idiot? Don't tell me her fingers are now in my department? 

"What do you want?" Her cold voice made Talaka stop being polite.

"I want to know about the child on Elder Daruvar's side." She was blunt about it.

Elder Somi suddenly flashed big smile at her. "It seems you have too much time on your hands to worry about others. Did you forget your task I have you?" 

Talaka suddenly paled. "You didn't really expect me to go and to kebial work on the farm?"

Elder Somi's face became serious. "It seems you really think you are something only because you broke trough three boundaries. Good. As punishment you have to clean latrines for one month and cultivate for one year. In that one year you have to raise at least five levels. If you don't succeed in that I will send you to Dragon land to guard Dragon eggs."

Talaka suddenly became furious. "You can't do that. Do you know who I am? Without my family, this school would be nothing."

At that moment Grandmaster Volek passed together with Grandmaster Fintan and they stopped in tracks. Fintan patted his shoulder and whispered. "See you on competition ground."

Grandmaster Volek gratefully smiled at him and saw him flying away on his cloud. With a cold face, he entered the office and leaned on the door. "Interesting. Since when did MY school need anyone's help, huh?"

Talaka turned around and chuckled. "I heard grandfather say that he helped to build the school and the city."

"Oh, it seems your grandfather got more informations than I did. Let's have a little chat with him." He grabbed her hand, summoned his flying sword and flew straight towards the biggest house in the city.

Talaka suddenly had a bad premonition, but as she was full of confidence age pushed fear back and smirked. Let's see how you will crawl soon under my feet. That school should belong to my family and not you.

But as soon they arrived her grandfather, uncles and even father stood others with pale faces and bowed head. When they flew down she jumped off the sword and started raising her voice.

"Grandfather, raise your head. You are grounder of this place. How can you bow in front of him?" She shook in anger as she saw them bowing even deeper.

Grandmaster Volek pushed her aside making her fall to the ground and stepped in front if the old man. "Kamish, I let you wiggle your tongue for a while but your imagination is getting wilder. I let you become City Lord as I thought you and your family will be a positive aspect of MY land. It seems I was wrong. From today on I release you of the City Lord position. You have to leave the City Lord palace by tonight. You can stay in the city if you wish, but you will not have any position in the adminstration nor any of your family members. Tonight at midnight if I see any of your people near the City Palace, I will annihilate them."

He waved his hand and flew away leaving stumbling old man and crying people. Talaka suddenly paled. "What does that means?"

Her father came forward and sighed. "You are at least cultivator, so you can still go to school. But we are commoners without background. Without this position, we are not even nobles, just simple commoners. Go to your room and pack. I'll go get your siblings and mother, we should transfer quickly to the city house."

"Father, what do you mean city house? I am Talaka, I can't live in such lowly abode." She stopped talking as she saw their cold faces.

Her grandfather shook his head. "We have been too lax with you and you became too spoiled."

Talaka saw everyone turning their bodies away and walking back inside. With a snort, she shrugged. "Commoners."

What she didn't know was that Grandmaster Volek was still there and looked at what was happening. "Commoners, you say. Let's see how long you can play wild in school after they find out that your family is no more the owner of City Lord title."

With a snicker, he turned around and flew towards the competition ground.
