The story of a boy named Morthus, or is it Armin?

Chapter 9 Popularity = haters

That night I caught myself thinking about Hunter's eyes. Maybe it was because my eye was bothering me. But it was not only his eyes that my thoughts went to, also his gentle movements while fighting. Despite the pain and the thoughts, I was able to fall asleep.

After a strange night, a normal day of classes began again, I was given training by an instructor in depth perception while my class was busy improving their fighting skills. The worst part was that my knife-throwing ability had gotten deteriorated. There seemed to be no progress and I felt like I was losing all my fighting abilities because I was missing classes due to my sight training.

My reputation had never been better, everyone who saw me greeted me and talked about the fight I had fought against Art. As it always goes with stories, the story of the fight had really become more violent than how it really was. one time I had heard someone say that I had thrown Art with just one arm over my shoulder.

But with popularity came haters. There were also people saying that Art had won and that I deserved to be blind. A boy from my old class yelled at me that I should have been blind in both eyes. Hunter always walked with me to my classes. He had become super protective towards me. Hunter came back from fight training with a blue-eyed. He said he got it in training, but I expect it was not as he said.

The next day in negotiating class, I got confirmation that my suspicions were correct. Lovett and his twin brother told me that Hunter had gotten into a fight with Silver. Silver is a descendent member. Which means his parents also attended the academy more so, his grandfather taught at the academy. He and some other descendent members have strong thoughts about being descendent. Silver and Hunter more often have their disagreements. Silver thinks Hunter does not behave like a descendent. But this time their fight was about me. Silver is one of those who thinks Art had won because "Art dealt the final blow". Hunter defended me. Silver felt that was not acceptable for a descendent and the verbal fight turned into a physical one.
