Chapter 292 292 - Duel
The teacher didn\'t even talk about things that were interesting, the teacher simply rambled about all sorts of random stuff which no one cared about.
He kept naming different dates for different events that had happened in the past.
\'Fuck, I thought that they would be speaking a little bit of the present, well it\'s called History for a reason I guess,\' Aiden thought realizing that maybe he had been a little bit optimistic considering the name of this course.
\'I hope the one about Magic General Knowledge will be a little better.\'
Then, as he was about to head for his next class, the people stopped him from doing so as they were in his path.
"Are you the one that\'s the director\'s disciple?"
Aiden seeing who had just spoken couldn\'t help but be surprised as it was the only person that he had taken note of in the entire class.
The rest of the class all seemed quite average.
It wasn\'t that she looked really strong or anything like that, it was just that her appearance demarked from the others.
She was simply the only one who didn\'t have a human appearance with those cat ears of hers.
"I am, what can I do for you?" Aiden asked, wondering why they were asking such a thing to him.
If they were going up to him, then there were really good chances that the people in front of him already about him.
\'I guess that sort of news spread quite fast, huh?\'
"Isn\'t it obvious?" the beast girl said as she looked at her friend, "I want to duel you and if I win then it will be that\'s going to be the disciple of the director."
Aiden hearing her say that was somewhat confused as he couldn\'t find a single reason in his mind to accept such a fight.
There was also another thing that made no sense, why would the director even accept her as a disciple if she were to win?
He had chosen Aiden for reasons that even Aiden himself ignored, but he had still chosen him.
The main reason was probably his talent in martial arts, but that was probably not the only reason.
"And why the hell would I accept?"
The beast girl once again gave a quick look at her friend as if highlighting the fact that the person in front of them was really stupid.
"For your reputation and the director\'s reputation, isn\'t it obvious?"
Aiden truly didn\'t care at the start, but then he heard a word which immediately made him realize something.
\'I\'m here to gain reputation and knowledge, so isn\'t that just a good opportunity to do just that?\'
Thinking about it for a few seconds, Aiden realized that there wasn\'t a lot of risk to this fight since the director would still keep him as a disciple even if he lost, he was sure that he wouldn\'t about him.
"Um, so how does this duel thing work?"
Then, the beast girl proceeded to explain everything to Aiden.
"It\'s simple, we set up a date for it, for example, two days from now then we show up, we fight and the winner gets whatever they asked from the opposing party."
\'Right, what do I want from her?\' Aiden thought as he wasn\'t sure that he needed anything from a student.
"What are you the most proud of?"
At first, this question seemed extremely random, however, from Aiden\'s perspective it was quite easy to determine why he asked such a thing.
He would simply ask for whatever she would be answering, she didn\'t want anything from her as it probably wouldn\'t have any value in his eyes.
"What I\'m most proud of? My magic?"
"Don\'t you have something else?"
Then, the beast girl seemed to be thinking deeply as she wondered about what she held dear, not suspecting why Aiden such questions.
She found it weird, but still, she decided to answer him.
"Then, I would guess, I\'m proud of getting into the Magic Academy," she answered mindlessly.
\'Ahaha, that\'s perfect then,\' Aiden thought as he really liked what she had just said.
"Alright, then I\'ll accept your duel, but if I win you will leave the Magic Academy on your own accord."
The beast girl hearing this understood that she had been tricked, however, she didn\'t care about what he asked because she was sure that she would be the one that win this fight.
That\'s why there was no hesitation in the response that she gave.
"Sure, so when will the fight take place?" She asked right away as she felt an arm nudging at her.
It seemed that her friend wanted her to think about it, but the beast girl seemed dead set on beating the fraud that was in front of her.
She knew that she was more talented than him, she had been accepted without even completing the entrance exam.
She was different from those that had done so.
"You decide the date, I really can\'t bother, now if you\'ll excuse me," Aiden said as he sidestepped to his right walking forward without looking back even once.
The beast girl was a little confused as to why Aiden was so impatient to lose which made her have some difficulty finding her words.
"Uh, sure I\'ll contact you. It\'s Aiden right?" She asked loudly as Aiden was getting further and further away by the second.
"It is."
Then, Aiden continued his walk as he was about to be late for his next class which regarded Magic and its general knowledge.
\'Please be more interesting than the last one,\' Aiden thought as he really hoped that at least one of his courses would be interesting.
He knew that he had a Space Affinity Course, but he still hoped that the others would also be better.
