BXBX NOVEL Chapter 135 Scary Homura
"That…"
Treyni takes glances at me but I ignore her. I wanted to see what she would say.
"S-she used [Earth Magic]. To be honest, I was surprised as well, she probably kept it hidden since it didn\'t fit her fighting style at all," Treyni says, her aura still glowing as bright as ever.
Most students instantly brought Treyni\'s excuse due to her warm and calm aura. It was the perfect aura for a teacher. But some other students needed a bit more convincing.
"I don\'t have [Inspect], so I can only assume it was [Grand Earth Magic]. I don\'t know how she learned it so early, but in the end, it is quite impressive. You, students, should work hard so you can reach her level in the future," Treyni says.
She was finally able to redirect the rest of the class in the opposite direction. Her warm aura was glowing even brighter. The people around us, who were not even part of the class, were overcome with a sense of relaxation. As if all their anxiety and worries were never there in the first place.
\'Treyni, bring the kids out of the arena,\' I order, using [Grand Mind Magic].
Treyni gives me a slight nod before gathering all the students around her. She tells them stuff about needing to work hard so they can become a powerful warrior that can be recognized by the kingdom. She then soon led all the kids out of the arena.
I jumped out of her arms and scampered off into the stands.
Freya was taken away on a stretcher with the beastman and Luna following right behind. Luna was still panicked even though Freya was mostly healed up.
You did good, but you got too cocky. I hope you can learn something from this, just like Hades.
[Evolution Switch]
My body split apart and my bones started to rearrange themselves. My feathers started to move and concentrate onto my back, creating a black and white set of wings. Muscle fibers intertwined themselves once again as I took form on one of the seats.
"What reward would you like?" I ask, projecting my voice to the announcer who was still in the dirt arena.
Everybody snapped their heads in my direction. The thousands of cheers and conversations had come to halt as everybody noticed who I was.
After the war against the 2 mountain guardians, many of my citizens found out what I looked like. Homura even showed me some drawings that my citizens had made of me, so I was fully aware of my kingdom knowing my appearance.
"Y-your highness, forgive us for not giving you a warm welcome," The announcer says, bowing deeply.
"I don\'t care… come on, tell me what you want your reward to be?"
"500 obsidian coins,"
"Don\'t overestimate yourself. I said anything, but you should have common sense. I barely even have half of that and you expect me to give you half of my savings?"
"B-but you said anything-"
I quickly cut her off with [True Queen Overlords Dominating Presence]. An unknown pressure forced everybody in the arena to kneel on both knees. The air was as thick as mud, causing everybody around me to get knocked unconscious.
The announcer tried to open her mouth but nothing came out. She started to sweat bullets.
"I permit you to speak," I say before deactivating [True Queen Overlords Dominating Presence].
"F-f-forgive me for my arrogance. I request for a nice house and 5 obsidian coins," The announcer stutters, shaking with fear.
"Good… maids, I know you\'re here. Get her a nice house and bring her the obsidian coins immediately," I say, looking upwards.
A squad of 4 maids: 2 elves and 2 fire harpies appeared in front of me.
"As you wish," They say before disappearing once again.
These maids weren\'t just coincidentally present. They were the maids that I ordered to watch over Luna and Freya.
"Now, everybody enjoy the rest of your day. And you Miss Announcer, I hope you enjoy your new house and obsidian coins," I say before Yin appears right next to me, bringing me into the shadows.
Before my head sunk into the shadows, the entire arena shouted,
"ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!"
[Day 55]
I woke up today, exhausted. My wives did a number on me last night. It got so heated that I passed out in the end. Of course, in the morning my wives apologized and helped carry me to the bath.
"*sigh* I can\'t believe I passed out," I mutter, sinking into the steaming hot water.
"We already apologized, what else do you want?" Kumo asks.
"Tonight, I get full control and you can\'t touch me,"
"Deal,"
"Sure,"
"Mmmmm… I don\'t know," Aika says.
"Welp, then we\'re not doing anything at all for the next 5 days,"
"F-fine… only for tonight though,"
"Good… Now let\'s talk about what I did yesterday,"
"Oh, were you the one creating all that ruckus within the Arena of Twilight?" Homura asks.
"Ye,"
"What did you even do? So many citizens were trying to get into the arena, but it was eventually filled up so people were just crowding around the entrance," Homura says.
"Uhhhh… so don\'t get mad at me but…"
"It depends on what your answer is," Homura says with Kumo and Aika nodding their heads in agreement.
Uh, making me even more nervous. I might die if I tell them the truth… or they might approve of it… It\'s a hit or miss…
"W-well Luna and Freya\'s class went to the Arena of Twilight… And their teacher signed them up for a no-death match with one other student, creating a trio… But I thought they could use this opportunity to learn a lesson for them to never drop their guard and to strengthen their bond,"
I looked up and received the glare of both Homura and Kumo. I immediately jolted my eyes back down but Homura and Kumo continued to glare at me with Aika slipping out of the bath. She didn\'t even try and help me.
"S-sorry,"
"Well… what happened?" Homura asks, her arms crossed.
Oh shit. I\'m so dead.
"I ordered the announcer to change it to a deathmatch since I feel they needed the extra pressure to improve… A-and F-Freya was injured-"
"WHAT! ARPIOUS IF SHE IS STILL IN THE INFIRMARY, I SWEAR!" Homura shouts startling Kumo who was right next to her.
Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit.
"C-calm down. She\'s fine. She was healed immediately after the match ended and she should have no long-lasting effects," I say, unable to make eye contact with the demon-like Homura.
The aura she exuded sent fear down my spine and the already steaming hot water started to boil.
"What happened to Luna then?" Kumo asks, her arms crossed as well.
"She wasn\'t injured and helped protect Freya from actually dying," I said.
"That\'s good, but you should probably deal with Homura. I leave her to you," Kumo says, stepping out of the bath and leaving the room.
Homura proceeded to scold me like I was a child. Most of it was about how I was to never put them into danger again unless it was of their own accord.
Whenever I tried to talk back, she released her aura once again, silencing me instantly.
"Where is my baby now? I need to check on her," Homura asks after taking 10 minutes to cool down in the changing room.
"Sh-she should be in the school\'s infirmary,"
"Good, I\'m going there right now,"
"Wait, are you going to expose her identity-"
I was quickly cut off with another blast of aura. My maids looked at me with pity as I couldn\'t even make eye contact with Homura.
…
"Master, why do you look so gloomy? Do you not like Yin anymore?"
I look down at the teary-eyed Yin on my lap. I was currently back at training my Water Corps. To pass some time, I decided to give Yin her reward. She was a calming pet and it made me feel good whenever I saw her blissful face.
"No, it\'s just I got scolded by Homura for putting our daughter in danger. I hope she\'s not too mad when dinner time arrives,"
"It\'s alright, Yin will protect you from any danger,"
"Thanks… you\'re such a good girl," I say, petting Yin\'s head.
Yin\'s body slightly curled up as she rubbed her cheek into the palm of my hand.
