Seeing the look on Aria's face, the Royal Instructor subtly laughed and explained, "Child, I knew he had stolen your cookie, my intent sense could smell it on his breath." Aria was shocked by the Royal Instructor's shocking reveal and immediately asked him, "What? Then, why did you scold me and let off JJ?"
"Child, I did not scold you but informed you how to better deal with such situations and that as a royal descendant, you need to be an example for others. You were too emotional back then to realize my lesson and took it personally. However, from the looks of it, it seems to have served you well. Look at you, you are a squad captain in the Southern Watch. Despite your young age, you are already making a significant contribution to society. You are an exemplary royal descendant," the Royal Instructor praised Aria for becoming a squad captain in the Southern Watch. He was happy seeing how well his student was doing in her life and was already contributing to society at such a young age. Being praised by the Royal Instructor in front of the kids from the Southern Capital and the Field Marshal, Aria forgave the Royal Instructor for the cookie incident feeling his praise had helped redeem herself in everyone's eyes. She was easy to please. The culprit was caught and her name was redeemed, what more could she ask? Seeing Aria's inner turmoil was cleared once and for all, the Royal Instructor then turned to look at JJ who was hiding among his cronies. He shook his head in disappointment addressing JJ, "Kid, that day I did not want to call you out in front of other kids and label you as a thief among your peers. I gave you the benefit of the doubt hoping you would come clean and change your ways. But you did not make amends and stepped up your game by becoming a street thug. It seems I failed you. Not to mention, you were one of the smart and promising ones. Maybe it's time I stepped down from my post and let someone more capable become the Royal Instructor." Listening to the Royal Instructor, JJ's face paled. He was not a teacher's pet like Aria but he did not want to be the reason why the teacher quit. Now that was not something he could shoulder. His parents were already up to their necks with him for his street gang and other low-level criminal activities. If they heard that because of him the Royal Instructor who had taught so many great generations of Southern Royal descendants had quit, nothing was stopping them from disowning him. After Luna, he would be the second royal descendant to be disowned by their families in this generation. What bothered JJ the most was that he was not bothered by the fact that he could be disowned by his family but by the fact that if it happened he would not be the first even on the list of disowned royal descendants in this generation. He wanted to stare at the skies and ask why he could not be the first in something for once in his damned life. However, JJ's agony grew when he noticed his loyal cronies leave his side and scatter among the crowd feeling the raging fury in the Field Marshal's stare on him. Their camaraderie was long lost when they sold themselves to Wyatt for a century of free labor in exchange for their life. None of them wanted to bear the burn of the Field Marshal's wrath by standing beside JJ. Seeing his so-called friends for life bail in his time of need, JJ immediately got on his knees and begged aloud, "Royal Instructor, I was wrong please punish me." "Sigh, get up, child. How many times have I warned you, kids, that with the royal bloodline flowing in your veins, you should be careful with your words and actions? How can you easily kneel for such matters? Did you lose your pride along with your brain on the streets? Maybe the one to replace me will be able to properly guide you," JJ's dramatic apology only managed to further disappoint the Royal Instructor and the Field Marshal. Listening to the Royal Instructor and feeling the glare of the Field Marshal intensify, JJ screamed in his mind, 'Just kill me already.' He was at a loss for words. He opened his mouth to defend but no words came to his mind. He could not think of any possible way he could salvage the current situation. So he gave up trying to defend himself and just kept his head down waiting for the finishing blow.
"Royal Instructor, have you made up your mind?" the Field Marshal asked, stripping her gaze from JJ. "Yes, due to the age difference, it is getting harder for me to connect with the students. The times have changed. Kids used to dream of joining the Southern Watch but now they dream of becoming thugs and creating third-rate street gangs. Back in my days, I saw kids committing suicide because they could not be on the frontlines with their friends. Tragic but it was better than them forming a mob and rallying to kill one another. I will talk to the Southern Ruler about finding my replacement and leave once someone capable is found," the Royal Instructor explained one of the reasons he was quitting. Another one of them was that he could not wait to focus all his time and energy on using Wyatt's emulsifier made of creating the celestial rule domain to find a proper way to create the celestial rule domain. Yes, he had given on it previously but now that they knew it was possible and had a lot more data on their hands to go on with he wanted to restart where he left off. At first, when they began they only had some historical records to guide them and did not even know if it was true yet they spent centuries researching it. Now that they knew it was possible and had proper guidance, how could he not give it a try?
