The Descendent Of The BLADE.

🦁👑Pt.8

Leona POV:
"Ruggie, I heard that those guys from Heartslabyul were chasing you this morning. I told you not to leave evidence, you idiot!"

"Y-you’ve got it wrong! There’s a proper story behind that… I wasn’t chased because they had proof, so don’t worry." Ruggie stuttered.

"Tch…I paid a lot of money for Octavinelle’s creepy octopus bastard to cooperate with us. I’ll fry and eat you all if you fail, got that?"

"The preparation for the main dish is going smoothly~" Ruggie said.

"We’ll definitely make those Diasomnia bastards pay!" Someone said.

"Ah~ I can’t wait for the tournament already~Malleus Draconia and Raijin Chisuke all beat up and kneeling in front of Leona-san~! Ah, the world will surely admire us now~ Someone might even scout a hyena like me~" Ruggie said.

"The pro-leagues might even fight over us!" a student said.

"Hah! You’re all very optimistic considering nothing’s happened yet."

"Leona-san’s popularity will skyrocket, too!" A resident said.

"The people from Sunset Savannah will definitely think you should be king now." Another added.

"Effort and family lineage are different."

"Eh?" Ruggie questioned.

"Nothing…I’m going to sleep now. You all get lost, too."

"Roger. Good night, Leona-san." Ruggie said.

"Not everything will be solved even if we reach the top."

"You got that right lion..." A familiar voice spoke.

"What do you want now...?"

"Oh...Right... I tidied up your room. It seems to be clean enough to be considered alright. But I overheard the conversation from earlier. Are you really going to give up on your goal to be king." he asked me.

"... I mean my brother has already secured his position as king... He also has a heir to take over his reign..."

"Jeez didn't expect to find an emotional lion today. What a rare sight!" Raijin said.

"Tch... Shut the fuck up would you."

"Alright. I'll drop the subject. Though I should head back to my Dormitory. I don't want Bat dad to scold me again."

"Yea yea, night!... Actually meet me later..."

And just like that he ran down the flights of stairs, weaving through the Savanaclaw residents. I head to my room to find it was all fresh.

He wasn't kidding that he knows how to clean...

Raijin POV:
I left lion's Dorm to go towards the library. I haven't gotten to return this book and the librarian is one day going to beat my ass.

"Yo. Librarian! Where are you!?"

"Oh are you here to return that book that you borrowed?"

"Yea I have it." I said as I reach into my bag.

"thank you! Now what book do you want next?"

"Do you perhaps have Blood for Blood by Ryan Graudin?"

"Yea we do! I can go fetch it for you if you want!"

"That would be helpful..."

I watch as the librarian goes to retrieve my chosen book. I then look out the window to find a beautiful sun set. Maybe I could go read as the sun sets.

"Here is your book! Please give it back on the due date..."

"I will... Try..."

I leave the librarian sighing as I head out the door. It seems quite peaceful here but then again many are most likely to be at their Dorm rooms. I head over to the field to read when wouldn't you know it. It is Sleepy... sleeping...

I sigh at the sleeping boy and sit next to him. We both had our ups and downs yet we barely exchange words. I believe he is also on the team for the magic shift tournament. I open the book to begin and started reading.

I soon felt something on my body as I look up from my book. It seems like Sleepy has rolled over towards me... Great sevens...He has been doing this for a while that at this point it has become natural. I'm just thankful he didn't do it so many times as of now. I then pick up from where I left off and continue reading.

Soon night approaches and fireflies swarm the night sky. I close my book and made sure there was a bookmark on the correct page. I place the book back into my bag as I was about to get up. Then I realised a problem... Sleepy was still asleep on my lap.

I had no intention of waking him up so I sat there. I mean I could use magic to lift him up without him waking up. But I might cause noise that would be sure to wake him up.

The last time I found him sleeping was a easy solution but in this case it wasn't. Sleepy was now lying down on me whereas before he was around the tree.

...

...You know what fuck it...

...

I grab my pen from my bag and performed a spell that levitated him. I got up from the grass and patted myself down. I turned my attention to Sleepy who was sleeping in the air and threw him over my shoulder. Surprisingly he hasn't woken up...

I released him from the speel and place my pen into my bag. I secured Sleepy as I walked towards the mirror room. I was about to enter when I noticed Bat dad exiting...

...

"...Hey Raijin-San...I see you have Silver there... Anyway come on through! I was about to go looking for you!"

"And why is that? Did you want to share with me your 'amazing' cooking..."

"Unfortunately no... Malleus sent me to go look for you two while someone else cooks for the dorm."

Thank the great sevens for noticing my endless suffering!

"How unfortunate... So why was you sent out?"

"Ah! Yes! We need you to take part in our plan!"

"And I am being dragged into another mess..."

"Not entirely... It is more for personal safety and others."

"Just get to the point!"

"The 'twats' and their team has came up with a plan..."

"... I see..."
