Chapter 37 37 - Kiss

Everyone in the class was surprised when they saw Ryan Whitemane's name on the list of challenges. Within the Academy, there had always been the possibility of challenging another student to a real duel, so that the two could solve problems in a fair fight accepted by the institution.

But until then, no student had ever challenged one of the Academy teachers. So the whole class was confused by this, after all, Ryan Whitemane was the rumored boy, the weakest of them all.

"Isn't he the one who was defeated by a puppet?"

"Everyone was talking about it, do you have the video of it?"

"I do! But, is he really going to fight Lyza?"

"This kid is going to die for sure."

"You two didn't see him in Mr.Barnfield's class right?"

"No haha, did he get beaten?"

"He crushed an elemental dragon all by himself. Some are saying he turned into a vampire."

"Impossible, if he were that weak, he would probably die from the shock of the transformation"

"Are you sure it was him?"

"I was there"

Ryan could hear every single one of these conversations, quickly, a window appeared in his System, jumping in front of his eyes.

While some were surprised by the situation, others were laughing and making jokes. Torek then coughed, trying to get the class's attention. The dwarf's voice echoed throughout the room, causing the strange mood to weaken a bit.

"As you all should know, the simulations will take place in the afternoon. So if you don't physically witness them, watch the recordings. Now let's get on with the class!" The dwarf shouted, as he turned to the board and began to perform drawings with white chalk.

The class went on somewhat smoothly, but Ryan could still hear what they were commenting about him. He was not bothered by this and just continued to focus on his studies, although a wave of constant anger was dominating his body.

It was a strange desire, to defeat each one of those students who commented about him. Ryan wanted to make sure that every single one of those who were mocking him suffered punishment, but at the moment, he was still weak. He needed to gain much more power.

<I just had an Idea, my master>

'Bark it, Nyx'

<Woof Woof! Just kidding. But, why don't we just enter a portal?

'You mean, sneak in one?'

<Yeah, with my help you surely can. If you kill a couple goblins, your power will strongly increase>

Nyx's idea made sense, with that, Ryan just nodded. Once he was out of his class, the two of them would explore the city of Neodrazzil, looking for an open portal.

Portals were always off-limits to the Travelers' Guild. After all, it was necessary to make sure that no one would get hurt or die unintentionally. The appearance of portals was always random, but with the support of mages, it was possible to find out where they were appearing and thus take care of the area.

It would be a difficult plan, but it was not impossible.

Torek's Class went by relatively quickly, after the dwarf's class, Alice and Sara showed up. The two girls sat next to Ryan, and kept hugging him for two more whole classes. This only worsened the rumors that were already circulating among the students.

Some commented on how weak Ryan was, others were jealous of him. But in general, there was a curiosity about what was happening with Whitemane's life, after all, in less than a week, he looked like a different person.

Finally, the bell rang, it was the last break period. Ryan stood up, Alice and Sara started to follow him, but with a gentle smile, he asked to be alone. Walking to Livia's room, Ryan's heart was racing.

The elf's room was not far away, and already at the door, he could see that beautiful blue-haired elf, adjusting her glasses while watching her assignments. She was focused, on solving exercises. Ryan was feeling stuck, but he slowly approached her.

She was sitting in the first chair, but even so, she didn't realize Ryan's presence until he was in front of her.

"What do you w-wan.... R-RYAN! H-hey, do you need anything?" She said. At first she was annoyed thinking it was someone trying to get in her way, but as soon as she looked at Ryan's face, the elf's ears turned red with embarrassment.

"I just wanted to talk, are you busy?" he said.

The elf denied with her head, flicking her ears and standing up. Olivia and Ryan walked out of the room together. There was a silence between the two of them as if something was confusing.

After climbing three flights of stairs, Ryan and Livia were on the roof of the building. The sky was blue, but there were a few clouds overhead. The two of them were sitting there, looking up at that sky that had the same color as the elf's hair. Ryan needed to break the silence.

"There are many things I wanted to explain to you," He said, looking up.

Ryan then commented about his powers, about what was happening. He didn't go into detail about Nyx, but he talked about the other girls and how he evolved in level by having sex.

The girl listened to everything in silence. At that moment, Ryan concluded that this was the end of his relationship with Olivia. As soon as he finished saying everything that he was thinking and feeling, she turned to him.

Olivia's eyes were sparkling, not from tears, she had a giant smile on her face.

"I noticed an increase in my level! I felt my mana evolving after we got into a relationship, that's amazing Ryan! So that's how it works, you can evolve without stopping, of course, I'll support you in that!" She said the elf was smiling and excited as if the whole thing had no effect on her.

"You don't mind that? It's normal to be jealous" He said since he had understood that Livia wanted monogamy.

"Of course not... I love you! And I want the best for you. I've always admired you, always. You've always tried to become stronger, that's amazing... I feel a bit like you" As Livia said this, her face was turning pink with the statement.

Ryan just walked over to her, and running his hand around the elf's waist, he gave her a kiss on the lips.

'I'm not going to lose you. Never'
