Villain With The Strongest System

( Saturday, After classes )

"Alright, this is it, I've had enough of the idiot principal and his excuses. Today is day 91 of Rocky's absence, but he's still not here yet…." Sophia said, sounding relatively angry.

"Well, we should wait till dinner time today, we already pestered Principal Liam after class yesterday, I don't think it's wise to bother him again" Erin said as he opposed the idea of getting on the bad side of the unstable principal.

"Oh come on Erin, grow a spine…. Isn't Rocky your best friend?" Sophia said angrily as she had enough of Erin and his cold attitude towards her.

"What do you think, Sir Buhara? What should we do?" asked Erin as both Sophia and Erin looked towards him expectantly.

Buhara did not have the quickest of wits, he was an honest guy who could feel emotions as well as humans, however, when it came to higher intellect, Buhara struggled slightly in that area.

Leaving decisions to him wasn't the optimal choice in any situation, however, stuck between Erin and Sophia, he was the only one with the power to mediate.

"Buhara has to pack bags for tomorrow's mid semester. Buhara abstains from voting" said Buhara as his decision shocked both Erin and Sophia.

Surprisingly Buhara had taken the smart way out of this situation, however, whether it was by design or whether it was just an accidental choice remained unknown.

"Well I should help you I guess and we should also collectively pack a bag for Sir Rocky in case he returns tonight" Erin said, as Sophia sighed in exasperation.

The family's pressure to locate Rocky's whereabouts had now gone over her head so much so that her failure to locate him was negating all the merits she had built up by taking a dagger to her chest.

In the last letter she received, her brother openly stated his frustrations with Sophia and urged her to do better.

"I can't believe you guys, I'm going to go confront principal Liam, with or without you guys" Sophia said as she slammed the bench she was sitting on and stood up from her seat in anger.

"Don't bother me you mad woman, Rocky Yadav is back already" said a familiar voice as when Sophia turned she saw a frowning principal Liam walking towards her with Rocky in tow.

"Sir Rocky!"

"Puny human?"

"Rocky-"

Said Erin, Buhara and Sophia as the three were shocked to see the change in Rocky's physique.

Rocky was taller now, his legs were thicker, his muscles were rippling and he looked more like a barbarian than a human.

Buhara was confused on whether or not he could call Rocky a puny human anymore as Rocky's height had surpassed the seven feet mark, allowing him to tower above the group just like Buhara.

While not fully orc size yet, Rocky was not small like most humans either which was why Buhara felt confused as to what he should call him.

"Wow Sir Rocky, you look much more handsome and strong than before" Erin said as he complimented Rocky with a hearty laugh.

"No Erin, you seem to have undergone more changes than me- by Gemini, you definitely seem like you have been working out hard" Rocky said as Erin seemed to have undergone a huge transformation himself.

The first time that Rocky met Erin, he was indistinguishable from a flower girl with not an ounce of muscle visible on his body.

However, something seemed to have changed in the past three months as Erin seemed to have put on some real muscle as he looked more like a proper adolescent boy now.

"Haha, no, no I'm nothing compared to you, YOU Sir Rocky are the real deal" he said while blushing like a red tomato, as although he had grown stronger, his personality did not seem to have changed at all.

"What the hell happened to you?" Sophia asked, looking at Rocky's body in awe as Rocky smiled softly at her.

"Nothing much, I underwent some secret training thanks to principal Liam" Rocky said as principal Liam clicked his tongue in regret.

"I don't understand why he's so calm, I fully expected him to return as a whiny bit**, he's completely ruined my fun" Liam complained as he did not even try to hide the fact that he was disappointed that Rocky did not come back slightly insane.

"So where have you been all these days?" Sophia asked as Rocky looked into her eyes and for a moment paused calmly.

"Like I said, I've been at a secret place training…..does it matter tho? I'm back now ain't I?" Rocky said as Sophia grit her teeth hard, trying to prevent herself from frowning.

First principal Liam would not tell her anything and now Rocky did the same.

She was beyond frustrated by this duo.

"Sir Rocky, are you hungry? There is good food today at the canteen…." Erin suggested, as Rocky perked up at the idea.

"Oh you have no idea how hungry I am Erin, I'm practically starving, hahaha" Rocky said as he put his arm around Erin's shoulder and Buhara's waist, dragging the duo to the canteen as Sophia begrudgingly followed from behind.

( A few moments ago )

Before meeting up with Erin, Buhara and Sophia, Rocky first showed up at the school teleportation centre and went to principal Liam's office to report to him that he was back.

"There is a letter for you, student Rocky, please collect it before you go-" the teleportation hall clerk told Rocky as he received the letter sent to him by guildmaster Karna.

[ Dear Rocky,

We have apprehended Joe with the help of an unknown individual and have discovered a piece of very concerning news through his interrogation.

It appears as if Sophia, Sister of floor master Perseus and Champion of Poseidon has been sent to the university of nourishment for young talents to attend the same batch as you and win over your trust.

Her intentions may appear pure, but we can assure you they are everything but pure.

Please beware of her

From the True Elite Guild,

Written on behalf of guildmaster, by your aunt Amelia. ]

Rocky's smile on having returned to the university immediately turned into a frown as he read this letter.

On one hand he received the good news of traitor Joe having been apprehended, however, on the other hand he received the news of Sophia potentially deceiving him.

While he did not wish to jump to conclusions yet, since he witnessed Sophia being stabbed before his very own eyes, Rocky did not take this warning lightly either.

Having gained the ability to see through an individual's aura, Rocky wanted to verify what Sophia felt towards him personally as he walked towards the principal's cabin with a clarity of mind on what he wanted to do next.

************

( Present moment )

Rocky observed the aura of Erin, Buhara and Sophia towards him, upon his return.

Buhara and Erin had a dark green aura when they saw him, which signified friendship and positivity.

They weren't faking their joy, those two were genuinely happy to see him and genuinely happy that he had grown stronger.

Sophia on the other hand had the jealous yellow aura when she first saw Rocky return which turned to blood red when he refused to answer her query.

'Red…. The colour of murderous intent' Rocky thought as he shook his head and wrapped his arms around his two friends.

There was no reason for him to show hostility to Sophia now, since she was convinced of their friendship.

However, now that Rocky knew about her true intentions, he was not going to fall into her tricks in the future.

Instead, he was going to be the one manipulating her now…. From today, he was going to be the one who would play the game.
