Chapter 16 Manaless Mage’s Pride[1]
Harry paused in his steps, he was about to go into the lecture hall when he felt the presence of three students behind him.
He slowly turned around, he instinctively took a step back when he saw the three students in front of him. His past experiences with them suddenly resurfaced making him cower in fear.
The one who spoke earlier was a black-haired student, he scoffed as he stared down at Harry with a contemptuous expression.
Harry slowly shook his head as he thought, 'Everything is different now… I have the system… I should at least stop being a coward. If I remain the way I was, then I don't deserve this system.'
Then his countenance changed, he raised his brows as he stared at the three students as if to ask 'what?'
The centre student, with light blue hair and a golden uniform, was the most distinctive of the three. A strange expression flashed through his eyes as he noticed Harry's gaze.
Unlike the other two students, he felt what happened, one second Harry seemed to be afraid of them then the next it was as if a switch was flipped.
He didn't know why but the brown-haired boy in front of him… seemed different, almost like a completely different person. The change wasn't from his appearance, he looked exactly the same, so why did he seem different…?
A slight frown appeared on Harry's face, he wasn't expecting to meet Han just when he was about to go into the lecture hall.
As he stared at the three figures, a certain memory flashed in his mind; one of him being beaten in the middle of the lecture hallway.
He subconsciously shuddered when he remembered that incident, the pain and anger he felt then were still fresh in his mind. His heart started beating faster, he wanted nothing more than to punch Han's face to oblivion.
However, he took a deep breath, he turned his head around and observed his surroundings. He frowned slightly when he noticed the small crowd that had gathered around the four of them. He wasn't too surprised by this though, it was expected, since they were still in the academy compound.
He took a deep breath and calmed down his fast-rising anger. Since they were still on the academy grounds, he didn't think it was right to cause a ruckus.
"I'm sorry Han, I don't have time for this… at least not now," Harry said. He didn't even wait for Han's reply as he simply turned around and started leaving.
Han was stunned when he heard Harry's reply, Harry had never replied to him, anytime he tried to bully or intimidate Harry, he would simply run or cower in fear while begging for mercy.
He was still feeling irritated by the strange sense of inferiority he felt the last time he looked into Harry's eyes, he wanted to teach Harry a lesson.
When the next day passed without Harry coming to the academy, Han felt annoyed. After asking from a few instructors and students, he learnt Harry was given a one-week break from the academy.
Although he was frustrated, he waited for a week, he waited until Harry resumed, so he could teach him a lesson and now Harry didn't just resume, he also seemed to have grown enough wings to talk back to him.
His face squeezed into a frown when he noticed that Harry was still walking away nonchalantly, treating him like air.
He clenched his fists tightly as his blood boiled in anger, his former plan was to simply rough up Harry a little, since Harry was recently involved in a mana beast attack, he planned on being a little lenient.
But now, that thought had been thrown out of the window, he was going to really make him pay for his actions!
The other two figures, who were standing behind Han, also raised their eyebrows in shock at Harry's actions. Even when he walked closer to the lecture hall, they continued to stare at him in a slight daze.
"Harry! How dare you walk out on me!!?" Han shouted. Veins bulged slightly on his head due to how hard he shouted. The little crowd that had previously gathered around them gradually grew as a result of his words and actions, which were successful in drawing greater attention to himself.
Harry's brows furrowed slightly as he halted his steps.
When Han noticed that Harry halted in his steps, a smug expression appeared on his face, turned out the trash still knew who was boss after all.
Unbeknownst to Han, and even the other students around, Harry stopped for a different reason.
His brows raised in surprise due to the sudden quest that appeared in front of him.

His eyes gleamed as he noticed the rewards, there was no way he would pass on something like that!
He would even get the chance to level up again.
He slowly turned around and faced the three students once more—or rather faced Han. His lips slowly curved into a huge grin as he muttered, "Well… I guess you were really meant to take a beating."
Han and the other two figures didn't know why, but when they saw Harry's wide grin, they all felt chills run down their spine and they subconsciously gulped.
