Chapter 1274: The painful new term
Chapter 1274: The painful new term
Wu Yan introduced himself to the class. He sighed silently when he did so.
"Rowan Randall, I will be studying in the same class as you all, please look after me..."
Nobody clapped. It was eerie silence that couldn't hide the whispers of the students.
"It's him, right?"
"Yeah, that's the guy."
"The cheater who got into our class instead of taking the foundations."
"Rowan? Never heard of this guy."
"Wait, Randall? Isn't that the same Randall as that Randall family?"
"Eh, the same family as the president?"
The students were still whispering when Wu Yan finished his introduction. He sighed because he saw this coming.
This is a school for dragon breeders. This school had a reputation to keep and prestige to uphold. This place is almost as significant as the capital of Lautreamont.
Naturally, the people that came here had to be qualified. Plus, opening the doors to random strangers might lead to infiltration by hostile agents.
Wu Yan told Rebecca he lost his memories so Rebecca just made up an identity for him.
He will be acting as Rebecca's personal guard.
She also gave him the same family name as her so it sounded like he was adopted into the family or something.
If that wasn't enough, he was the personal guard of the school president, not just some random rich noble or kid with backing.
Plus, the rumors about him gaining entry through backdoor dealings made him very infamous in the school.
Naturally, most of them didn't have a high opinion of this guy.
Wu Yan rubbed the Seikoku on the back of his right hand.
Without this forged sign he would be even more conspicuous.
This seal isn't just a fake Seikoku. It is also a seal used to seal his powers.
Wu Yan sealed his powers so he can't even access his Gate of Babylon, his magic spells, or his other superpowers.
Wu Yan locked them away.
He isn't trying to go incognito. He just wanted the Astral orbs to stop trailing him as that would give his otherworldly existence away.
Why would Astral, the lifeforce of humans in this world avoid him?
In the giant Astral explosions, Wu Yan's body became something of an Astral magnet, he can passively attract Astral orbs to float around him. Other than that, the orbs didn't do anything for him.
Sealing his powers away somehow made the Astral orbs think he is a normal human. The orbs aren't attracted to him anymore.
Astral isn't visible normally. It is only visible once they grow to a very condensed state. Rebecca and other dragon breeders can spot these condensed Astral orbs.
It wouldn't do him any good if people start linking the Astral orbs to the Astral explosions a short while ago.
Pushed into a corner, Wu Yan decided to seal his powers away.
He can unseal his powers at will so it won't affect him too much.
Wu Yan still has Eternal Arms Mastery and the stats given to him by the True Ancestor Bloodline. He can still fight at tier 8 power, around level 70 despite sealing most of his powers away.
He is already stronger than normal dragons and a great majority of Maestros.
Rebecca in her Arc Armor would be tier 8 at best. He is stronger than her in this depowered form.
Wu Yan is sure he can handle anything this world throws in his direction. This is the optimal midway between mission clearing in peace while reducing possible problems.
"Guys, pipe down..."
The teacher calmed the class down before they got too rowdy.
"This is the new term, there are three more years of classes. You guys need to work together and improve yourself to become dragonars."
The teacher looked at Wu Yan.
"Rowan, find a seat and sit down. We are starting the class."
On his way to his seat. He sensed a sharp gaze on him. He stopped momentarily.
Sitting down, he glanced at the gazer. A blonde with blue eyes stared at him.
She is a beauty on par with Rebecca.
Her glistening golden locks complimented her white beret cap well. Her pale skin and icy-blue eyes can catch the souls of those who looked at her visage.
However, there is an icy coldness beneath that beauty of hers.
She is looking at Wu Yan with disdain, annoyance, and slight outrage.
Wu Yan doesn't remember what he did to make her leer daggers in his direction.
She is not entirely antagonistic but she isn't going to be friends with him anytime soon.
It is like she doesn't approve of Wu Yan.
He furrowed his brows before sitting down at the corner seat near the windows at the back of the room. The blonde stopped staring at him after that.
She's not going to pick a fight.
However, what did she hope to achieve with that leer?
Wu Yan didn't understand.
"Hi..."
A male student called out to him. He looked at the blonde guy greeting him. Wu Yan looked left and right just to make sure he is talking to Wu Yan.
"You're talking to me?"
"I don't see anyone else here other than you."
The handsome guy quipped.
"I am Raymond, Raymond Kirkland."
"Oh..."
Wu Yan is still a bit surprised this young man approached him.
"Rowan, Rowan Randall."
"Nice to meet you, Rowan!"
Raymond immediately got on a first-name basis with Wu Yan. He didn't beat around the bush either.
"Hey, Rowan, are you a Randall as in you're related to president Rebecca?"
Wu Yan understood the guy's confusion. He bitterly laughed.
"Yes, I am her personal guard."
"You're Rebecca's guard?!"
The handsome guy started revealing a look that belonged only to a dirty old man, it totally ruined his impression of the young man.
"Oh, man, I envy your position as President Rebecca's personal guard..."
"..."
