The Tales of Draconic Warlock

There was a reason why I decided to go to Nexus instead of the academy's library. I wanted to make a catalogue of everything that there is available to me in the Nexus.

There are sections that are locked. So I have to forget about those and record the names of the books and what they delve into, so that, I can first read the books in the academy library that are not available here.

Of course, if those books that were not here were done and I had time, I would read them too but this is to make priorities in case anything happens and I can't be able to read all the books in the academy's library.

So, once I made the index and details of unread books here, I would go to the library in the academy.

---

It took me almost an entire day to write down the names of the books and what they were about on a few sheets of paper. They are required when I go to look for books in the academy's library.

In the morning I went to the mission hall to receive my rewards for the monster tide and to make sure the academy didn't mark me as dead. I can change that but that may lead to a meeting with the higher-ups, which I don't like.

Back when I killed Dorian, without proper enquiry, they called me to the office under the scrutiny of an entire academy. I still remember the faces that those students made. Even after the academy declared I was not guilty, there were a few faces who didn't accept that, not until William's and Elisha's expulsion happened.

Only then did those judgemental faces disappeared but what does it matter, whether they disappeared or not?

It was the end of year two and after that, I met my yearmates when we took the year-end exams. I saw a few faces when I went to the mission hall to take missions when the year started, and a few times here and there.

So whether their judgements disappeared or not, it didn't change the fact that I had to live for a while under their judgemental eyes.

Normally I won't give a shit about what others think about me but many of these children are from noble families and that means their parents are nobles.

My parents are nobles too.

Even though there was not an official organization, the noble circle existed for a long ago and would still continue to exist as long as there were nobles.

My parents as nobles are a part of that and in those circles, the noble parents of those children should have viewed my parents in a lowly manner. Even if my parents never came to know or kept that from me, I didn't like to bring shame to my family, though that was never my fault.

The academy just checked with one person, who can only see what happened a few seconds before that and nothing more. Based on just that, they almost made me the Villain of the Royal Academy.

It was only through my own evidence, which I collected for months, that I escaped from that tragedy. So believing that someone will come help you out is the stupidest and most idiotic thinking.

No one would help others, only you can help yourself.

Anyway, since that day, I didn't want to meet any of the higher-ups. They do owe me for helping them get the evidence on the real culprit.

Sure they helped my family to settle with the Rutgurd and Siren family quickly but that was what they owed me for causing me to lose face in the academy. Not just me but also my parents.

I am sure, it could be one of the reasons why the military offered my mother that secret job.

Just because she reached Tier-7, the higher-ups wouldn't give her such a high-paying job, even if she is the youngest to reach such a rank.

I believe it was compensation either for what my parents went through in that small time frame or what my siblings had to go through. I am sure of that.

So the academy owes me for helping them get the evidence detailing the real criminals. There is less than a year but I should keep that open till next semester. I should think of a good one for that favour they owe me.

It also doesn't mean I like to be in front of them.

The headmaster is powerful and he might pick some clues about my true power. So keeping them at length would be the best.

After collecting mission points, I went to Angela where the sad episode happened. I can't call it an episode as it took only a few minutes of my time.

So I used only an hour or so of my time for these in the morning.

After that, I entered the Nexus.

It was only after night that I was able to retire. There are too many books in the Nexus. Maybe I should have gone to the academy's library and recorded the titles and summary of books available there, instead of this.

It could have save some time for me.

---

Early in the morning, I got a call from Angela, waking me up. She said she had something to talk about with me urgently.

It was still dark and I couldn't be seen entering the training hall at this time. If it was a public training room, it wouldn't be a problem but that was a staff training hall, where only staff or personal disciples were allowed.

Even though the entire academy sees me as Angela's personal disciple, I am a boy, and entering her training hall at his ungodly hour would lead to various rumours.

It is to create rumours but difficult to diffuse them. It would cause destruction before even it shows signs of disappearance.

Once they were lit, there was no going back.

So it's best to not cause any rumours. I am in the final year and I hope it ends without any twists and turns like the first two years.

I told her I would meet her at the regular time.

Now that she woke me up at this ungodly hour, I needed to do something or I would doze off and I wouldn't be able to wake up and meet her in time.

That can't happen.
