Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

"But I need to remind you that I am speaking to you now in my capacity as a Border Lord. All the soldiers in the Lancaster Territory, myself included, are ready to face the challenge from the Dungeon.

My purpose is to protect the heritage that nurtured my father, to protect the people under my rule, and to protect my dignity as well as the honor of being a Border Lord.

Yet now, there are those who wish to seize the banner of my forefathers and are even more eager to erode the dreams of all pioneers beyond the Lancaster Territory to nothingness.

I cannot accept such an outcome, therefore... By the name of Kael D. Helois, Lord of the Lancaster Territory, I swear that my anger will ignite anyone who attempts to snatch the lands from my hands, until either I am burnt out or all the invaders have been reduced to ashes."

Kael declared in a soft voice, silence falling over the venue.

The way his smirking face conveyed such a chillingly ruthless tone sent shivers down everyone’s spine.

There was no venting of anger or gnashing of teeth, his mere presence felt like a sacred and icy trial.

It should be known that even the harsh critics of future generations had to admit, the delicately featured Ning Ruyu on the World League had an intense style very different from his outward appearance and signature skills.

He was the Magic Assassin who, in the semi-finals, faced the defending champion of that season, exhausted from a prolonged fight, powerless to turn the tables, yet still dared to stake his professional career and charge toward the monstrously strongest player of that patch in a deathly sprint.

To embrace death, steadfast until the end! This was the impression he left on many players when he first stepped into the League.

It’s difficult to say that his later surge in popularity had nothing to do with that event.

"I’m not really afraid of being the scapegoat, I just don’t want to lose…" Ning Ruyu said with a smile when asked about that match by Lao Cai later.

Since then, he had always been the de facto leader of the Strange Power Chaos God Guild.

And now, once again, someone felt Kael’s determination.

Harry’s expression changed subtly; he instinctively took a half step back, and when he realized what he was doing, he was shocked to meet those murderous eyes, feeling a wave of coldness enveloping his body.

In his previous life, Kael was indeed one of the players most susceptible to the influence of virtual games, having killed numerous NPCs and players.

After completing the fusion of spirit and flesh from the system panel, he, who was usually gentle and noble like a regular lord, was now as calm as the drifting clouds, seemingly indifferent to everything.

But at this moment, the trials and tribulations from his previous life came rushing back, startling Harry so much that he wanted to summon the attendants who were secretly protecting him.

The ones struggling on the crooked neck tree exchanged glances, no longer daring to say another word. The cold sweat on their backs sobered them up quite a bit; as the anger in their hearts was suppressed, a sense of fear began to emerge.

The other students hiding in the corner and watching the excitement also showed fear on their faces.

They couldn’t help but recall the ruler of the Duchy of Englanc, Duke Lion Heart, with rumors saying that anyone who looked into his eyes would feel as if a Golden Lion was roaring at them.

Now looking at Kael, they couldn’t help but think that although he was of mixed blood, within his chest throbbed a vigorous Lion Heart.

And there was no need to mention Lily standing aside. Having seen many graceful nobles and the children of knight families at the academy, she had never witnessed such a nearly frantic scene, and she was so astounded that she could only stare open-mouthed.

"Kael..." Harry’s expression was complicated; he opened his mouth, struggling to say something.

"Wow... it’s been many years since I’ve seen a descendant worthy of Lion Heart’s bloodline! How timely of a day to return."

Just then, the sound of applause came from a distance, and one could see a Mage in a white robe striding forward with a double-pronged Magic Wand, making a metallic thud every time the bottom of the wand struck the ground.

Behind him, two other Mages in white robes exuded an air of vigor, following him with curious stares fixed on Kael.

Harry’s face became even more awkward when he saw those Mages, and he said with a bitter tinge, "Good day, Dean Luxius."

Upon seeing that person, Lily also put on a brilliant smile, jumped up, waved to Luxius Parker, and shouted, "Teacher!"

As a teacher from the academy approached, Harry’s face went from pale to flush, and he seemed even more distressed as he went over to explain in a low voice, "Mr. Luxius, I’m sorry for causing a commotion at the school gates."

Luxius was not at all annoyed after listening, and only laughed, saying, "That’s it? If this is what you call a commotion, you’ll be in a real mess when you head to clear out the Dungeon later. However, it’s not proper to make a scene at the academy gates, especially concerning matters of the Charles family. You’d better restrain yourself a bit."

As he said this, he winked at everyone, and in an uncharacteristic move for a powerful figure, he made a pleading gesture. He said, "You are all still very young, and as time goes by, you will also learn to forgive those who have hurt you in the past."

Kael gave a nonchalant smile, snapped his fingers, and the Magic Silk Threads binding the few individuals instantly withdrew. While Luxius looked on in admiration, Kael gave a Mage’s salute to Luxius and said with a light laugh:

"Since it’s a request from the Monarch of the Transfiguration faculty, I’ll let it go this time. But this isn’t forgiveness, it’s merely letting it slide."

Luxius was not angry either.

He rather liked such youthful arrogance; such children always reminded him of his younger self.

That mix of complex and nostalgic feelings was a rather nice spice in his increasingly monotonous life.

"So, let me guess, you’re here to see me, aren’t you, Kael? Would you like to sit in my office?" Luxius, along with three students, extended the invitation.

Kael did not hesitate and immediately followed suit.

...

[Mage Academy - Outside Dean Luxius’s Office]

The Monarch of the Transfiguration faculty, who was without airs, dismissed the three students and then pushed open the door to his office, inviting Kael inside.

"This should be our first formal meeting, right?"

He took out a jar of colorful candy balls from a cabinet, ate one himself, and then placed the jar on the coffee table in front, saying:

"Want to try? Fruit-flavored rainbow candies. Although occasionally you may get some odd flavors, most of the time, they’re quite tasty."

Kael didn’t refuse and took a candy ball from the jar and put it in his mouth.

It had a bit of a soursop flavor, indeed quite nice.

"Since you’re sitting here, you must have many things you want to ask me, right? For example, about the letters your maid in the Royal Capital forwarded to me. To be honest, the contents were a big surprise to me and, as expected, the path of the Transfiguration faculty was extended even further.

What’s the price, Kael? Mages are a group who follow the exchange of knowledge. You’ve given a gift of immense value, so what do you want to get from me?"

Kael looked at Luxius and laughed, speaking frankly, "I hope, through your help, to get the opportunity to work as a Scroll Scholar. After all... the name of the Mage Academy is derived from the Scroll Scholars of the past, and I have long admired the Scroll Scholar."

"Scroll Scholar, huh?" Luxius pondered for half a second, then nodded, "That’s certainly no problem, but... I suppose what you need is more than just a part-time profession, right?"

Luxius scratched his head, looking a bit vexed, and said, "I can probably guess what you’re going to trouble me with, but I think, maybe you should listen to my advice first?"
