Trying To Survive as the Main Antagonist by: BK1235

chapter ten:

A few days later...
Mikail was in the training hall with Valen, Noril, Kastil, and Aslan.
"Alright, since this is the first lesson, I'll sit in on it. Mikail, just pretend I'm not here okay," Noril said with a smile as he had his arms and legs crossed with his sword at his hip as he leaned against a wall.
"Sure, I can, but I don't know if that pervert can, dad," Mikail said as he pointed at Valen who had a perverted expression on his face.
He was smiling, and he stared at Noril.
"Damn why is he so handsome and sexy," Valen thought with a suspicious smirk.
Noril felt shivers down his spine. Valen regained his composure.
"Noril, I have one question. Why didn't you want to teach him, you're quite strong with the sword, and there's barley anyone in the empire who can beat you in a sword fight. Plus, you're a lot stronger than you look," Valen asked with curiosity.
"Because, I didn't know if Mikail would be able to learn from me. Also, it's Duke Gruz, Duke Romenza," Noril said after sighing.
"But come on, we've known each other for quite a while, Noril. We were even classmates at some point," Valen said as he grabbed his left hand.
"Hey, let go," Noril shouted before trying to pulled his hand away.
Valen kissed his hand as he pinned him to the wall.
"You're so cute," he said with a smile.
Mikail sighed as he grabbed Valen's arm and squeezed it as he powered his grip with mana.
"That hurts Little Mikail," he shouted as he felt so much pain.
Noril pulled his hand away from Valen and glared.
"Hey, Perverted teacher, let's get on with the lesson, and leave my dad alone," Mikail shouted before he let go.
"Mikail," Noril thought as he smiled.
"I finally have someone who cares about me, I'm not about to let you take that away. This is strange though, Valen wasn't really interested in Noril this much," Mikail thought.
"Damn it, this kid keeps cock blocking me. I can't help that Noril's sexy. I really want him. I've been in love with him since time at the academy, the only reason I married was to have a kid. Then after she died, my love for Noril was still present, hah, Noril is just irresistible," Valen thought.
Noril sighed. Aslan looked annoyed.
"If you don't get on with the lesson, I'll have Duke Gruz fire you, Duke Romenza. Also, stop flirting with Duke Gruz," Aslan said with his arms crossed.
"Aslan," Mikail said.
"Fine, I'll stop for now, and get on with the lesson," he said.
Valen scratched his head with a sigh.
"Alright, the first part of training is to build up your muscles to hold a sword. Also, Mikail I know you can use magic but try to avoid using it while training. You're basically cheating when you use it. You won't know your actual strength. Like Noril, his strength without magic is quite amazing. But his strength with magic is enough to move a castle. Don't let that man fool yah, when it comes to his magic. By the way my wrist hurts thanks."
"You said something like a teacher it's strange, and you deserve it," Mikail said with a smirk.
Noril looked surprised.
"Mikail's expressions of softening. He's also expressing his emotions more," he thought.
"Hey, I am your teacher, but I just happened to have fallen for Noril, Mikail," Valen shouted.
"Who the hell are you shouting at," Aslan and Noril asked with a cold voice.
"How scary."
Ray and Wilhem were walking around. Ray saw Mikail and immediately started running over.
"Mikail," Ray said with a smile.
"Ah, Ray, good to see yah kid," Valen said.
"Ah, it's the perverted teacher," Ray said.
"Ray, don't treat your teacher like that," Valen said with a pout.
Wilhelm hugged Mikail and pulled him away from Valen.
"I don't like that pervert being around my little brother," Wilhelm said.
"Aw, you've gotten cuter as well, Wilhelm," Valen said with a smile.
Mikail felt agitated.
"Don't tell me," he thought.
"Don't tell me, you've been going after both of my sons as well, Duke Romenza," Noril said with a glare.
"Heh, no, I just told them how much I was in love with you."
"He would always want to find a way to meet up with you father. I wanted to keep him away from you," Ray said.
"Good job, Ray, although he's not one to listen to reason," Noril said.
"How mean all of you," Valen shouted.
Mikail sighed.
"Brother Wilhelm, you can let go now."
"Okay," Wilhelm said as he looked shocked while looking at Mikail's expression.
Suddenly Mikail had a dense red mana aura around him. He glared at Valen.
"Duke Romenza, you're not a pedophile are you," Mikail asked with a deadly aura around him.
"Eh, how the hell is a kid that small producing such a aura," Valen shouted as an instance of fear shot through his body.
His eyes turned a brighter red as he glared at Valen angrily.
"Wait, Mikail, I have a rule, 17 and under, no go, but Noril and Ray are both over that rule. But I'm not interested in Ray, I'm interested in Noril because he's a lonely Duke and a widow, and they're way too young, they look like the Duke when hes younger," Valen said as he regained his composure.
Mikail sighed as his aura disappeared.
"What the fuck is that kid," Valen thought while still feeling fear.
Mikail sighed.
"I was afraid he might have done something to Wilhelm as he did to Mikail in the book. I'm glad that's different from the story," Mikail thought.
"Who are you calling a lonely Duke," Noril asked.
"You."
"Can we continue the lesson? At this rate Mikail won't hold a sword until he's 30," Aslan asked.
"Sure, as I was saying, Mana is cheating. So Mikail, don't use it until you build strength."
"Why was that directed towards me?"
"Because you have the mana pressure of a grand magician."
Mikail sighed.
"So what, you want me to build up endurance, right?'
"Yeah."
Mikail sighed as he pulled out his hair tie and fixed his ponytail higher. Aslan only stared in awe. Mikail stretched.
"Mikail is so beautiful," Aslan thought.
"So what first?"
After a while...
Mikail and Aslan were lying on the ground, covered in sweat. Mikail sat up.
"Mikail, are you alright," Noril asked.
"I'm fine," Mikail said with a fierce smile.
He wiped off the sweat from his forehead. He felt his muscles twitching.
"I can practice magic and endurance training if I use recovery magic. It should help regain strength to keep training. But still, this feeling of adrenaline is nice," Mikail thought.
"Mikail's expression? The fire in his eyes, it looks like he has a purpose now," Wilhelm thought.
Noril smiled before picking up Mikail.
"Duke Romenza, for now, you pass as his sword trainer, but please keep personal feelings towards me to a minimum, got it," Noril asked while smiling at Mikail.

"Eh, but that's pretty hard, considering how I feel for you, Noril," he said with a smirk.

"Hey, Duke Romenza," Mikail said as he glared at him.

"Hmm?"

"I understand you are in love with my dad, but if you attempt to do anything against his consent, I'll kill you without thinking of the consequences," Mikail said as his expression was cold.

"Why is a five-year-old so terrifying," Valen thought.

"I understand, Mikail."

Noril smiled.

"Mikail, you've really accepted me," Noril asked.

"Of course, you and my brothers are my family, it's not your fault I was abused in the foster.

Noril hugged him.

"You've really accepted me I'm glad," Noril said with a smile.

"Ah, Noril is so cute when he smiles," Valen thought while blushing.

"I'm definitely in love with you," Valen said.

"Shut up! Don't ruin the moment," Noril shouted.
"You're going to make me cry, Noril," he said.
