us didn''t immediately respond to the tant provocation hurled in his direction.


    His focus remained on the threedies, who had calmed down slightly yet were still flustered, considering they had just experienced their first kiss in such an awkward setting.


    "Why are you all so flustered? Big Daddy us has finally arrived. It''d be best if you get used to it now because I n to keep you on your toes," us said with a wink, making their cheeks turn beet red.


    Naturally, the guys watching this spectacle erupted in curses aimed at us. Of course, those were the loudmouths.


    On the other hand, the prideful ones simply seethed in silent rage.


    At that moment, over ten thousand killing intents were locked onto us, but he couldn''t care less. In fact, he seemed to thrive on the situation.


    Why? Because, deep down, us considered himself a pitiful existence.


    After all, someone marked by the heavens for death is a pitiful existence. us may be lively and cheerful most of the time, but he wasn''t always happy.


    This had been especially true recently. He''d been gued by a nagging feeling that his life was in constant danger, and it had started to affect his mood when he was alone.


    But that wasn''t something he could decipher easily, considering the heavens could strike at any moment. That''s precisely why the academy felt like the perfect ce for him. Every day brought new drama, and us wanted nothing but to cherish it all.


    "Oh, and by the way, Lulu," us added with a yful smirk, "I love that picture. I''d love to see you in that outfit again."


    The Spirit Mistress blushed furiously and quickly hid behind Aoi, her flustered expression only fueling us''s amusement.


    When he left Arcadian City with Miriam after their training, Lulu sent him a message that she immediately deleted.@@novelbin@@


    She regretted sending it, so she had to delete it.


    Unfortunately for her, us was on his phone at the time and saw the message. It was a picture of Lulu, who seemed to have undergone physical training and was sweating—or perhaps she had drunk water, some of which had spilled onto her chest.


    This caused the twin sisters on her chest to cling to her outfit, making them more prominent. The attached message read, ''I am missing you already, my training partner.''


    It was an awkward situation, yet us was very happy and tempted to go back to Arcadian City and tap that ass. But he had other priorities then, so he held himself back.


    Naturally, Lulu looked pronounced in the chest area, and us—who had already drooled over Miriam''s big sisters on her chest—was bing something of a chest guy.


    He had been waiting for the right moment to do something, and now he finally got the chance.

    "You dare ignore me?" Zaid Nabil shouted again, fixing his eyes on him—or more like his soul. Zaid was a Spirit Master who specialized in soul attacks.


    ''I dare him to attack my soul,'' us thought, delighted when he felt Zaid trying to lock onto his soul.


    The reason? He had recently discovered something about the Pentaface Bead.


    The bead made him immune to all soul attacks, regardless of their power. He didn''t understand yet whether the bead could also attack on its own. So, he wanted to try it out and see how it works.


    This was also why us couldn''t wait to unlock the bead''s secrets.


    us wanted to test it on him. Of course, first, he wanted to learn more about the group of eight who had appeared to tempt him.


    He knew nothing about them, but it seemed they knew everything about him. Even his date of birth.


    Unlucky for them, while us might be a bastard, there was someone with even more venomous words: the one and only privileged disciple in the academy, Asha.


    Just as us was about to engage with the eight who had appeared, Asha arrived and took hold of his hand.


    "Do you want to know who they are?" Asha asked.


    us gave her a gentle peck on the cheek before answering, "It would be my honor, Fairy Asha."


    Asha blushed, and the threedies standing nearby grew jealous. Why? Because Asha was much bolder than them in some ways, they didn''t have the spirit even to start walking it.


    And with us''s arm around her waist now, they were barely holding back their jealousy.


    They wanted that, too.


    If only they knew us was doing it to make them envious of the little witch doctor.


    "That one with the short dark hair and a donkey frown is Zaid Nabil. He''s a hater. He''s also from the Nabil Great n," Asha said.


    us raised an eyebrow. He knew Miriam''s family woulde after him eventually; he just didn''t expect it to be this soon.


    But he weed it.


    "The moody one is Kim Jiwon. He''s also from a great n, but he''s an idiot hater. The perverted-looking one is Richy Mason. He''s from a great n, too, and a perverted hater.


    That bitch is Kate Duncan—a devoted hater of Sister Lucy and every beautifuldy in the academy. She''s a jealous, hater bitch. The idiot beside her is Hunter Duncan, the self-acimed strongest legacy in the world. He''s a stupid hater.


    That bitch with the fire eyes is Sofia. She''s the leader of the strongest faction in the academy, the Fire Dragon Hall. Well, she''s a very bitchy hater who hates Sister Lucy for being too awesome."


    Asha gave Lucy a wink, and us tightened his grip on her waist. He had already fallen in love with the girl in his arms, and no matter what, he would never let her go.


    Finally, he had found a woman after his own heart—a woman he could be shameless with. That woman was Asha, the witch doctor.


    "The otherdy beside the very bitchy hater is Amelia, and like her hate, she is a low-budget hater of Sister Lucy. She is also the leader of the third-strongest faction in the academy, Sky Phoenix Sanctuary.


    Don''t pay much attention to her; she isn''t that hateful, considering she doesn''t have the strength to back up her hate." Amelia clenched her fists, but she couldn''t do anything.


    The reason everybody fears Asha is that the academy doesn''t want her to kill people. They don''t know her abilities, but they''ve heard rumors of her performing rituals now and then.


    They feared her, and Asha knew that, and that was why she wasn''t holding back.


    "Thest one is Seojin Choi. As for him, he''s just an ass-kisser, so don''t regard him. In fact, you can even buy him with wealth. He also leads the second-strongest faction, the Celestial Wind Pavilion.


    "In my eyes, he doesn''t even know what he wants, so have some mercy on him," Asha ended her introduction with a smile. She then stood on her tiptoes and kissed us''s cheek.


    us brushed his hand against her waist, making her blush and giggle.


    However, while she was happy, the eight she had clearly disrespected were fuming.


    us turns to them and shes a mischievous grin in their direction.
