Chapter 70: Chapter 69 - Going Back to the Academy



"And you don\'t know about mine," I replied with a smirk. "I know about his strength, and he knows about mine. In fact, there\'s a chance he knows more about me than he let on. But that\'s a detail.

Either way, I\'m confident that I wouldn\'t die if I were facing him. However, I don\'t know if I would be able to defeat him. It would be close, that\'s all."

Lurok nodded as he gathered more information about me as time passed. It had been quite some time since I\'d had a conversation like this about myself, and it was definitely not something I planned on doing anytime soon.

"So, that\'s two questions. Give me the other three."

"Hm…how did you become so powerful?"

"I got someone to teach me."

"Who is that person?"

"You don\'t know him, and you won\'t find him either. Also, I count that as a question. You have one last question remaining."

Lurok\'s eyes widened. "What?! No, no, no. That doesn\'t count at all."

"It does. Now give me your final question."

Lurok wanted to argue, but when he saw that I wasn\'t playing around, he completely stopped what he was doing. He knew there was no point in trying to argue with me because he simply wouldn\'t win.

"Ok…then, let me think." Lurok stopped talking for a few moments before opening his mouth again.

"Hm, can you tell me about your past?"

"You\'re gonna have to be more precise than that, haha."

"Tell me why you hate demons so much. Is that good enough?"

I looked at him dead in the eyes, not opening my mouth.

That wasn\'t a question I had expected to come out of his mouth right now. Actually, it was the last thing I expected.

My hatred for demons?

To be honest, I never really thought about why I hated demons to the core of my soul. Well, actually, I know why.

After all, this hatred doesn\'t come from me.

It comes from my master, the one who taught me how to become powerful. The one who gave me all that strength when I needed it the most. However, he also gave me parts of his ideologies, and hating demons was a part of it.

"Hello?" Lurok said as he waved his hand in front of my face. "Are you still there?"

"Yes, yes, sorry about that. Got lost in my thoughts. My hatred for demons comes from my master, the one who taught me how to become powerful."

Lurok wanted to ask again who that person was, but he knew that I wouldn\'t give him that answer.

After all, it was my most well-kept secret, and I wasn\'t planning on letting anyone find out about it.

There was a reason I kept it hidden, and it would stay that way as long as I lived. No one would be able to get that answer out of me. I respect that man too much to betray him after all this time.

"Now that I\'ve answered your questions, what are the whereabouts of that subspace?"

Finally, I would be able to know a little bit more about where Zero lived, which was why I was here in the first place.

"As far as I know, the whereabouts of Zero\'s subspace should be in the north of the continent, somewhere in the snowy mountains."

"And how did you learn this?"

"Secret. However, I can vouch for that information. It is real."

I nodded, knowing that he was telling the truth.

"Alright then. This was a nice discussion."

After saying those words, I touched Lurok\'s shoulder and made him forget about telling me the information about Zero, since I didn\'t want him to alert his friend about me. However, I was nice enough to leave him the rest of the information about me. I wasn\'t that much of a dick. I was actually fair when it came to bets and respecting the original reward.

I headed out of his store and thought to myself on my way back to the Atlantis Academy.

\'Seems like we\'ll have to go to the Snowy Mountains next,\' I thought.

After all, our time in Atlantis was coming to an end soon. It was time to head back to the Royal Academy and continue with our lives.

I had gathered quite a lot of information about Perdere during my time here, and it had definitely been interesting. Zero was someone I would need to keep an eye on, which is why as soon as we returned to the Academy, I would be talking to the director about going there.

I would have to reveal bits of information for it to happen, and she would surely report back to the Emperor about it. But it was better than nothing, and I didn\'t mind sharing just enough information for the Emperor to deploy more resources.

Within a few hours, we all headed back to the Academy, and just as I said, I went straight to the director\'s office, who had also asked to see me right away.

Alexandra seemed curious about what I had learned in Atlantis from the looks of it.

I arrived in front of her, knocked a few times, and she let me in.

"You! What the hell did you do in Atlantis?!" she shouted right as I opened the door.

I just stood there, confused.

I entered thinking I was about to get praised, and here I was getting shouted at.

A sigh escaped my mouth. What had I done wrong this time?

"Why did you make yourself an enemy of the Ocean Outlaws?"

"Enemy? What are you talking about? I\'m pretty much best friends with their leader," I smirked, knowing that I was just slightly twisting the truth to my advantage.
