Chapter 198 - 198 Start of Classes
“Thank you so much for saving me, Sir Aethelwolf. I owe you this life of mine.” Fast Sword’s wife bowed her head at Aethelwolf. She was genuinely grateful to this man for saving her life.
Aethelwolf smiled at her. “How do you feel now?”
“I can walk on my own now, but I still get dizzy sometimes. I probably need a few more days of rest before I recover fully.” The woman replied.
“That’s normal since your body has grown weaker after a long time of inactivity. I have prepared a great tonic for you. It should help you recover faster. Here, take it.” Aethelwolf took out a glass jar from his storage space and handed it to her.
The woman was reluctant at first, but her husband, Fast Sword, accepted it on her behalf. “Sir Aethelwolf, my wife is a very shy person so I’ll accept it for her.” He grinned as he said this. He still looked scary with all the scars on his face, but Aethelwolf felt that the man was happy.
“Since you’re here, I believe that you are ready to join our household.” Aethelwolf changed the topic and looked at Zachary with a serious look.
Zachary nodded his head. “I’ve talked about this with my wife. I’ll join the Lassiter Household, but I hope that you could also let my wife join.” He said.
Aethelwolf smiled at the man. “This is just a simple matter. I agree.”
.....
“Great! Do you need me to sign any documents?” Zachary and his wife became happier after getting his approval.
“Let’s talk about that later. You guys should eat first. I had the servants prepare this feast for you two.” Aethelwolf let the couple sit with him. He also invited the others to join them.

Days passed by in the blink of an eye and it was the start of the classes.
Aethelwolf headed to the academy with Olivia and the others.
The kids looked young and full of vigor in their school uniforms. They couldn’t even conceal the excitement on their faces.
Aethelwolf recalled a distant memory in his past life. It was the time when he was still a student. He was still young and inexperienced at that time.
“Papa, do you know who will be the teacher of the First Year Esper Class 1?”
Aethelwolf glanced at Olivia and smiled at her as he nodded his head. “Why do you want to know?” He asked.
“I’m just curious.” Olivia replied.
Aethelwolf rubbed her head gently as he said. “Your teacher will be Verson Misa. He is a friend of mine. He is weaker than you, but you can learn a lot of things from him. That guy is a veteran hunter of the Hunter Association. You should listen to his lessons, okay?”
Olivia nodded her head. “Okay.”
Soon, they arrived at the academy.
Aethelwolf brought Olivia and Janrose to their classroom. The two were among the top students in the Esper Department so they ended up becoming classmates.
“You guys must not bully your classmates, okay?” Aethelwolf warned them.
Olivia and Janrose nodded their heads.
“Okay.”
“Yes, Sir Aethelwolf.”
“Alright. Go inside.” Aethelwolf smiled as he bid them farewell.
The two waved their hands at him before entering their classroom.
As soon as they got inside, they saw that their classmates were already there.
Janrose noticed some familiar faces among them so she walked up to them while dragging Olivia with her.
“Long time no see, Grace. How are you?” Janrose sat beside Grace and she let Olivia sit on her other side.
Grace glanced at her and smiled. “Janrose. I knew that we would be in the same class. Michael and the others are also here.” She then turned her gaze to Olivia and said. “I heard that Olivia got a special admission after revealing the strength of a Level 3 Esper. Is that true?”
Janrose nodded her head. “Mn. Olivia broke the testing apparatus during the examination so the teachers immediately decided to give her a special admission to prevent her from destroying more equipment.” She chuckled while saying this.
Grace couldn’t help but look at the red-haired little girl in shock after hearing this. Every time they visit the Lassiter Household, she would see this little girl eating so it was surprising to know that she was actually a Level 3 Esper.
At first, Grace didn’t want to believe this, but there were a lot of people who witnessed Olivia’s eruption of power.
Olivia stared at Grace curiously. “Aren’t you the younger sister of Miss Julie Irish?”
Grace smiled at the little girl and nodded her head. “That’s right. Do you know my sister?”
Olivia nodded and said. “Mn. She always visits our mansion to eat.” She then leaned closer to Grace and added. “I think your sister likes my papa.” The little girl giggled as she uttered those words.
“Why do you say so?” Grace asked with her eyebrows furrowed.
“She said that she wanted to show papa her face, but my papa wasn’t interested.” Olivia whispered innocently.
Grace looked at her in shock after hearing this.
Janrose who was listening to them was also surprised. She knew that Grace’s sister was Julie Irish, the family head of the Urgel Household.
“Nonsense! My sister would never do that.” Grace snorted.
Olivia shrugged as she said. “I’m just saying what I heard. How about you ask your sister?”
Suddenly.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
A man wearing leather armor entered the classroom and everyone immediately shut their mouths after seeing him. It was Verson Misa, the younger brother of the Hunter Association’s Vice Leader.
“Hello, everyone! I am Verson Misa and I will be your adviser.” Verson wrote his name on the blackboard and he made it big enough for everyone to see. He then scanned the young students in the classroom.
All of them were the best young talents in the empire and he was proud that he would be teaching them.
