Elias let out a small sigh as he opened the bathroom door. A white towel covered his lower half as he exited the bathroom.

The exhausted, and snappy air he radiated earlier was replaced with a stoic and refreshed ambience after a good shower.

<nulli>'Nothing a good bath can't fix... Huh?'

At that moment, Elias suddenly stopped. He furrowed his brows and stared at the two people in the living room.

"What are you two looking at?"

"U-hh... nothing..."

Peter and Robert were staring at him, seemingly dumbfounded and expectant at the same time. It was quite a strange expression.

Truth to be told, he was more or less expecting them to fight back against his attitude. Of course, he preferred if they wouldn't do so — but there was something strange going on.

Elias frown deepened. Even if he had experienced a lot in his past life, he was still not used to people giving him strange looks.

It made him seem like he was a strange zoo animal.

"It's nothing! Sir. Elias, do you perhaps need us to handle something? Just say it, me and Robert are happy to help you!"

At that moment, before things escalated Peter suddenly stepped forward with undisguised excitement and passion.

<nulli>'What the fuck.'

Elias instinctively took a step back and stared at Peter with widened eyes. Meanwhile, the passionate Peter continued rambling on.

"So? Is there something you need? Oh you did mention that you forgot to get your things earlier, I can get it for you as long as you—"

"What are you doing?"

Elias finally took a hold of his bearing and stopped Peter with a strange look. He looked over at Robert and saw the man was at a distance, looking at him with caution.

<nulli>There's definitely something strange that happened I don't know of.

This was not even him being paranoid, it was a conclusion made from logical observation and reasoning.

Elias took a deep breath, preparing himself.

"Tell me. Now. Why are you acting like this?"

"What...? Oh, you were indeed asleep Sir. Elias... so that's why you didn't know about this..."

Peter was surprised at first before he understood. He hurriedly went over to his stuff and took out a black smart tablet.

Under Elias confused gaze, Peter opened his tablet and pressed some keys. Then, it didn't take long before Elias knew what was the fuss about.

On the tablet, an eye-catching headline could be seen.

[Shocking Demon invasion: Students of Arcane, please beware! As reported by the academy dean, there was a demon invasion in the academy examination..(omitted)]

As Elias read through the text, his eyes slowly widened inch by inch as indescribable feeling of shock erupted within him.

[...Professor Felix admitted that he was aware, and was in control of the entire situation but wanted to see how the students react. To his surprise, however as quoted, "there was a participant with so much potential and power that I didn't need to do anything," and furthermore, as he righteously say "as a teacher, how can I prevent my students from showing their strength?"]

<nulli>'...What the hell.'

Elias took a step back, extremely confused. He looked at Peter and Robert. Now he understood why they were acting like that.

[...We asked who the student is, and Professor Felix was more than happy to reply with an amused and cheerful smile, "Elias Corleone. Get ready, he's going to turn this academy around."]

In the last segment of the news article, his name was mentioned by Professor Felix. He was given boundless and immaculate praise.

<nulli>'...I remember now. There was this side plot.'

Elias suddenly thought back to the novel. There was indeed this kind of subplot after the first arc of the story concluded.

As Professor Felix controlled the inner circle, he watched as Rain's group, along with Lance Schultz slowly overpower the demon and leave the demon severely injured.

Impressed by their potential and bravery, Professor Felix wanted to know more about them and tried to hide the matter of the inner circle. But the dean found about it and spread it around.

Then, Professor Felix, with his own plans of amusement went ahead to announce Rain Violetstar and Lance Schultz as the heroes of the demon slaying duty.

That was the sub-plot that made Rain and Lance popular and connected to the higher clubs and noble students of the academy.

<nulli>'...But.'

The biggest difference now was that instead of Rain and Lance being the main characters of the story, it was him  who killed Garuda — Elias Corleone.

But it was not that Rain and Lance were not mentioned, they were also put in the article, but their names were far overshadowed by Elias esteem.

Elias was being heralded as the Goliath Killer or Demon Slayer.

Of course, if he were to have his own thoughts of the matter — it was all bullshit. Rain and Lance deserved the credit more from their outstanding performance. He was only there to reap benefits.

But aside from that, this change was either a <nulli>major problem or benefit for him, depending on what angle he would look into it.

It was a major problem because it would attract all sorts of eyes and gazes in the academy, including of those he was not yet ready to face in his current situation.

On the other hand, it was a major benefit for the same exact reason. He was going to establish a club: he needed all the prestige and fame there was possible.

Clubs, in the Arcane Academy, were very <nulli>unique and <nulli>special.

"But... that obnoxious man,"

Elias gritted his teeth and looked at Professor Felix on the tablet. There was only one reason the man did this and he knew it very clearly.

"That shitty teacher really pisses me off. Since you did this, don't get angry when I have my revenge in the future..."

Professor Felix was a man that found enjoyment in teaching people. He relished over others finding and awakening their potential. He was a firm believer that the more struggles one would face, one's potential would awaken more.

By directly announcing Elias name in the article, Professor Felix was indirectly creating enemies for Elias in advance.

Because in this academy... everyone who was not an ally was an enemy.
