Eventual OP...
Vaughn just gestured towards the chair in front of (Y/N). He just nodded and sat down. Keene moved over to the side and just watched the whole thing.
"I wanted to ask a few questions regarding yourself. Is that alright?"
The boy didn't see anything wrong with that. As long as it wasn't deeply personal, then it was alright. With a shrug, he nodded.
"Alright, first off. Tell me about yourself? The headmaster in Rutinford spoke quite often about you and would praise you highly when talking about you." Vaughn started. Well. This was simple enough to answer.
"Well. I've been an orphan most of my life. My parents died when I was young. So the orphanage took me. When I was old enough, they moved me into an apartment with a monthly salary to keep me stable." He explained with a frown. That memory was a long time ago. He doesn't remember much of it. However, he heard from somebody that his parents died in a car crash.
Vaughn just gave him an apologetic look. "I'm sorry that you had to go through that at such a young age. Must've been terrible to hear that your parents died suddenly."
(Y/N) smiled back and waved his hand. "Ah, you don't have to be sorry. That happened a long time ago. I'm over it now." He coughed in his hand as he continued answering the question. "As I was saying. I've been an orphan my entire life, but the orphanage still took care of me regardless. I entered Rutinford when I was old enough to go and stayed there, until now. I was smart for my age, I've learned at a faster rate. So I decided to come to Wellston to expand more."
"Well, you've come to the right place. Wellston provides students with the best academics in the entire country." Vaughn smiled at him. He then went straight to question two. "I've read about your ability in your files. But I want to hear more about it. What better than hear it from the person himself?"
Ah. This was an easy question to answer. "Well, my ability. Ultra Instinct. Allows me to fight without thinking. My own body responds offensively or defensively, depending on which part of Ultra Instinct I use. There's offense mode, which enhances all my offensive instincts while defense mode enhances all of my defensive instincts."
Vaughn placed his hand under his chin while thinking. "An interesting ability. I've read your charts on Ultra Instinct. It certainly isn't a pushover."
"Ah, thanks." (Y/N) sheepishly rubbed the back of his head at being praised by the headmaster.
Vaughn went for the final question. "So (Y/N). Are you going for the kings' throne?"
It went deathly silent. Keene was paying more attention now. After all, he was stronger than Arlo. The 'Ultimate Defense King' He was curious as to what he would do.
(Y/N) just cupped his pointer finger and thumb under his chin as he thought. I mean, I could become king. It'd be a new thing to try since I wasn't king in my old school. But I like not being in the hierarchy. I hate being in the hierarchy! Oh, man! Why couldn't this be simple? He looked up to see Vaughn and Keene waiting for his response. He just went back to thinking. I could pretend to be a mid-tier! But then everyone will question my ability, and since my ability screams out god-tier, it won't be believable! I got away with it in Rutinford because my ability sucked ass when I enrolled, and I didn't interact with the student body after I improved it, so nobody knew about it! Gawd, why can't I catch a break?!
At this point (Y/N) was just anime crying. The two staff members' sweatdropped at this. "Are you alright (Y/N)?" Keene asked. He was worried about the new student. He didn't know about the eternal debate going on with (Y/N) right now.
But it's the only choice I got! Maybe I can hold back Ultra Instinct or something. I have to try, at least.
"I've decided!"
The two staff members were startled at the sudden outburst. But Vaughn seemed to recover. "So, what will you do?"
"I don't want to be mixed up with the hierarchy. The current royals can handle all that." (Y/N) explained but then had an excited expression after "So I'll enroll mid-tier! Nobody will question it if I use a small amount of my Ultra Instinct ability!"
Vaughn sighed at this. He had hoped the boy would interact with the system and its people. However, it seems like he has other plans. But, if that's what he wanted, then so be it. "Very well, I'll inform all the staff members of your plan."
(Y/N) grinned at this. "Thanks! I owe you big time."
Vaughn just waved it off. "It's nothing really. If you don't want to interact with the hierarchy, then I'll support it." The headmaster proceeded to grab two files with the boy's name on them.
"Here," Vaughn said as he passed the files to (Y/N). "The one underneath contains your medical files. It contains details about your ability and health. Give this to Darren if you can. The other one contains your room information and key. Keene here will help you settle down in your new dorm room."
(Y/N) grabbed the files and his luggage. He stood up and thanked the headmaster for everything, and left the office, waiting for Keene.
"That boy. How do you think he'll do." Keene asked his superior.
"He's something else. There's no doubt about it. I wonder how everyone else will react to his presence here." Vaughn replied.
"Well, if that's everything, I guess I better be helping him." Keene smiled as he started heading out the door.
The door shut while Vaughn was in his own thoughts. You're an interesting one. (Y/N). I wonder what's in store for you in the future.
