Talentless Extra Of The Legendary Hero Academy-Chapter 155: Your business, not your business
Chapter 155: Your business, not your business
Severin watched Darius’s expression shift into different shades as they heard the explosion outside fade into silence. With their inhuman ears, they heard as the door was opened and footsteps approached.
The footsteps were confident and firm, but the thing about it was that none of them felt the person who owned the footsteps.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
The footsteps approached the meeting area.
Nobody said anything to break the silence and the tension that filled the room.
Darius moved away from his place and faced the door since he didn’t know who the new enemy would be. His eye flickered to Ardent and Severin.
The door to the room slowly creaked open and a man was standing there with a scowl. "Why do you have guards outside the door?"
The new man was disheveled, his hair braided and most of it covered his head, his eyes lacked life, and his clothes were like rags joined together to form something.
Eyes narrowed, he turned to the strongest man in the room, Darius Faulkner, and looked at him. Then his head turned to look at Ardent and then at Severin.
He grunted and pushed himself into the room.
And even though they were all staring at him, they couldn’t feel his presence at all.
Severin smiled. He didn’t know who would come, but he was glad they sent someone at all. And he knew this person. "Miret of the Five Guardian. Of the Isolde Dusk."
Darius twitched and his eyes narrowed. "You! What the fuck are you doing in my academy?"
Hostility fell from him as he stared at the man, Miret, in front of him. "Isn’t your shit hole enough for you?"
Miret didn’t reply. He ignored him as he walked closer into the room.
The team members were surprised when Severin called the name. Miret is popular. Most especially, though, the title of Five Guardian of the Isolde Dusk.
Isolde Dusk is a prison. A prison for Heroes, for Etherion users, and it’s a prison that moves through the sea, an independent island. And the Five Guardian are the people responsible for guarding it.
The prison is very popular as one of the most secure places in the world. And it’s so independent that only the Emperor, through a decree, could control it, and even then they’ve been known to ignore the Emperor on more than one occasion.
Unless the Emperor shows up on their doorsteps.
Miret looked at Severin. "Are you the Reignhart?"
Severin’s eyes narrowed immediately. The way Miret asked the question... it was almost as if he knew something about the Reignhart name. "I am Severin Reignhart."
"What you wrote in your application is interesting. I find it so, especially when you point out a very weak and unknown spot from inside, deep in the layers of our prison. Nobody knows this spot and it’s something we have been trying to fix. How do you know this?"
Everyone was shocked as they stared at Severin. Even Darius.
The Isolde Dusk is no joke.
They’ve only had prison breaks two times since its existence, and it’s from guardian betrayal. They train their own forces and plant their own food. They make their own money by selling to the small islands scattered at sea.
They are self-sufficient and powerful.
Weak point? The Isolde Dusk has a weak point? That was the first time any of them were hearing something like that, and it made them twitch as they looked at Severin.
They’ve seen him pull off some crazy things, but what was happening was the most crazy shit that has ever happened.
Darius was having the worst of it as he stared at Severin. ’...how... is this possible... come to think of it... all this while this boy has been pulling off all this kind of things... can it be that his power could see the future or predictions? Is he a seer...?’
Miret asked, "How do you know all of this?"
Although his voice wasn’t threatening, Severin knew how dangerous the man standing in front of him was. Miret of the Everlasting Ghost.
He’s one of the immortals known—at the very least, he hasn’t died since the time the Empire was created—and a non-human. He was human before he died, and that was when his power finally kicked in: Ghost Talent Ability.
He was one of the ordeals that Lucas Dawn would face in the future. Lucas wanted to rescue someone in the prison, a criminal, but also a powerful fire user who had complete control of his power.
Lucas first went to the most powerful seer to get the information that Severin just delivered. Actually, the arc was a connecting one because Lucas had to do a lot of missions and owe favors to a lot of people to pull off the third prison break in the history of Isolde Dusk.
’...I guess that’s the way of the protagonists... doing things that’s extremely difficult and pulling it off...’
Lucas was finally caught, but that gained the attention of the Emperor, who was ’moved’ by the man’s bravery and passion to grow stronger that he was given a royal pardon and invited to the Imperial Castle.
But then Lucas was thrown into the midst of siblings who wanted to use him for the fight for the throne...
Severin smiled. ’...sorry Lucas... but if you try breaking in now then you’ll likely be risking your neck...’
"I had a dream. My ancestors told me," Severin said, and he watched the man’s face intently as he said it.
Miret’s face rippled, but no emotion showed on his face. He simply nodded. "Alright."
Severin blinked. He wanted to investigate his family, and what better way than one of the oldest persons in the Empire? And the first question that Miret asked confirmed that he knew something about the Reignhart.
Darius couldn’t take it anymore and he took a step forward. "Look here, Miret! This is not your Isolde Dusk. This is Zenith Hero Academy. Leave this place, leave here and mind your business."
Miret turned around. "This is Isolde Dusk business."
Darius gritted his teeth. "This is Zenith Hero Academy that he’s a student of. It’s not your business!"
