Chapter 134 I think, I can do well.
Main building, Abalax World Academy.
Inside the conference room.
Many people in various attires were busy discussing things in a well lit room while sitting on their chairs in front of a rectangular table. The room was big enough to hold 200 people and had a high ceiling. At one side, it had a glass wall through which one could easily look at the buildings present in the sky island. Two sides were walls and the fourth side of the room had a tempered glass wall.
The chattering noises stopped when the glass door present at the tempered glass wall side opened up and three figures walked in. The three were Arya who wanted to conduct this meeting, joining her Emilia and Sel who called for the meeting.
Emilia and Sel sat together, just next to the head seat where Arya settled herself. The administrative staff noticed this and realised that the meeting will be hosted by Arya, one of the three Emperor ranks present in the academy.
“I’ll skip the greetings. I’m busy. Ralph broke a rule, he killed a boy from a Half Emperor rank family from the human continent but the boy was revived. Ralph wasn’t at fault. The boy bothered him and things lead to such an end. You have 5 minutes, discuss what punishment is to be given to Ralph, me and Emilia will make the final judgement.”
Arya said to the people present domineeringly unlike her previous self which got happy due to Lith’s small actions a few minutes ago.
The people got into a discussion and five minutes later, a person wearing a pointy hat and purple robes stood up and said looking towards Arya
“Your Excellency, after discussion, we would like to suggest that Ralph gets punished. However, since he wasn’t at fault, the punishment would just be a show to the others but he won’t actually get punished.
Ralph will not go out of his dorms for a week but we will tell everyone that he’s getting punished in the academy’s disciplinary dungeon. Your excellencies, what do you think about this?”
Arya and Emilia both listened to it and Arya smiled hearing their decision. The people present weren’t stupid. They were all experienced and everyone knew full well what it would mean to offend an Emperor rank powerhouse.
It would’ve been alright had there been only one Emperor rank involved, however, Ralph was not only the son of the Asmodeus family head, he was also the personal student of Arya Relgar, another Emperor rank. Arya had not taken any students before and everyone knew this fact well. They didn’t want to offend her nor the Asmodeus family’s head and thus came to this decision.
There was also another thing that they had known, it was about Ralph breaking the rule. They were thus expecting such a meeting and were well prepared. They knew it wasn’t Ralph who was at fault, but rules were broken and punishment was to be given.
Thus everyone came up with such a plan to keep all parties happy. Arya liked their decision and there wasn’t anything she needed to do. She looked at them and said,
“This is final then. The punishment would come into effect starting three days from now. Spread the news.”
Emilia looked at Arya, sighed and thought ‘If my opinion wasn’t needed, why was I even involved in this?’. Though she thought this, she didn’t speak it out and kept it to herself. Reason being, she was a humble lady and would never say rude things to people unless absolutely necessary.
After giving her verdict, Arya got up and left with Emilia and Sel. The people in the room sighed. Dealing with Emperor ranks was sure a pain, they all thought. Had they made a wrong or stupid decision, everyone in the administrative staff would suffer the wrath of not only the Asmodeus family head, but also of Arya. They didn’t want it and tried their best to avoid it and they finally succeeded and sighed in relief.

––Lith’s POV––
Lith’s dorm, Abalax sky island.
Lith was sitting cross legged on the sofa and absent-mindedly staring at the tv which was on.
I wonder how teacher must be doing. Though I did act shamelessly and asked her out for a dinner, would I really be able to succeed in dating her? I mean, she is probably very old like mom. She must have a lot of experience in dating people. Why would she even think of me?
Lith fell back on the sofa and turned around and buried his face into the pillow present on the sofa.
Ahhh, I am idiot. If I fuck this up, what would teacher think of me? She is so nice and I am probably gonna ruin it. Argh! I am such an idiot. Having no dating experience and going after an experienced woman…
Alright nevermind. I’ll do well and not fuck up. Mom and big sis taught me so many things about a lady, I think, I think, I can do well. Oh god, is this what anxiety is? Am I getting anxious for tomorrow? Ugh, I should calm down. What to do to calm down? Hmm, let me see… oh, that meme, heh.
‘Anakin, stop panakin.’ was it? Hahahaha!
Lith recalled memes from earth and laughed internally, forgetting his anxiety for a few moments. After a while, he got up and stretched himself.
Mhmm, I should get some tea and study for a bit. I still haven’t done the homework given in class today. Ah, theory class sucks no matter where. I wish I could skip the one class that I have to attend too. Anyway, let’s get some tea and get back to studying.
Lith then made tea for himself as he thought and got back to studying and waited for the next day to arrive. After he finished studying, he tried to sleep but he was too excited to do so and as he thought about how his future would be once he starts dating Arya.
