An hour later...
Vather could be seen in the canteen hall,with more than ten plates of food in front of him,but they were untouched as he was still waiting for Liam.Food in the canteen were relatively free as not many people really have the time of eating as they mostly use their time for growing stronger and the more powerful, the less food you need to eat.
A tanned young man could be seen moving towards a hand that was waving up to him from the distance.
"I never thought you eat this much"Liam said as he looked at the large plates of food before him.
"Well you know, practice". Vather said as he immediately dug himself into the food like a beast.The food tastes really good but they were still nothing compared to the food he cooks himself.Since he lived with his father in such a large apartment,where there was no workers.He pretty much learned all the skills a slave should know, if not even better.
Besides,when was the last time Vather has even eaten last.Although body tempering stage and meridian forging expert still need to eat food in great amount in order to provide energy.Those at the core formation stage don't need that as they simply replenish energy from their core, meaning so far there was dimensional energy,then they don't need really need to eat to live.
But that law didn't seem to apply to Vather as since his awakening he finds himself alright even if he had not eating anything for days like when he was present in the forest.
"So what's with everyone, treating you like a plague issue." Vather asked causing the speed at which Liam dug into the food to slow down a little.
"You know Vather,the Mason you fought in the combat class.He's the seventh child genius of the Raiden family."Liam said expecting some kind of surprise from Vather but all he got was a ravenous young man who kept devouring foods without stop.
"Well since he was defeated and thought humiliated,he called up to his brother,a 2nd year,who was the 3rd child family genius to help,but you suddenly disappeared from the world.With no where for him to unleash his rage he decided to unleash that on the ones closest to you and I happen to be in the way."
"Although he tried to unleash his rage on me,he wasn't able to do that as I belonged to one of the three families."
"Then why did everyone ignore you like that"he asked not the slightest of anger present on his face but that made him look even more scary.
"Well, while the Burnes family might be one of the top three families,they still can't compare to the Raiden's family and right now I'm in their territory,unless a big thing happened that tarnishes the reputation of The Burnes,then they won't really get involved.Apart from that, my status is not really the best in the Burnes family,just the son of a loyal staff loved by those higher-ups in the family.So knowing that I'm targeted by the Raidens family, everyone thought it's better to just ignore the ones targeted by them in their territory and who knows they might even be able to establish a link with one of the military's best families through that"Liam said with an uncaring look.
But Vather knew that was just a facade.Liam's nature does not belong to the side of battles but more on the socializing path.Denying him of access to people is almost the same as someone crippling Vather, denying him of cultivating for his entire life.It's the worst punishment to be given by someone like that.
Vather slowly raised up his head from the food he was eating as he stared into Liam's eyes."I hope you're not angry for me implicating you Liam"
"That thought never crossed my mind.Everyone knows the Raidens are just a piece of junks,a sadistic family with a wicked nature whose pride rose everyday.I wish they'll be put in their place one day."Liam said his voice dripping with venom.No one will say no to that as everyone in the military really wished there was a family that can put the Raidens in their seat,but without strength who can do that.
"A piece of junk like yourself from the declining Burnes family dared called the Raidens in such names."A fat ugly faced students sitting opposite their table said to them as he looked at Liam.He was pretty popular among the new years as he also had a bloodline at the 3rd layer and a lackey of the Raidens family and even a little stronger than Liam.Vather was outright ignored by him as he wasn't known among those who have a 3rd bloodline layer, making him less important and unworthy of attention.
"And what about you,a useless lackey of the Raidens.Aren't you less than garbage yourself."While Liam was unable to respond due to the fat man being stronger than he is and he was even working for the Raidens.Vather immediately retorted back as he didn't care a dime about the Raidens or a useless lackey.
The young man placed his attention on the blindfolded youth in front of him as he was shocked speechless that someone of a lower bloodline layer was able to refute him.
"It seems you jerks all really need to be put in your rightful places"the fat boy uttered as he slowly moved towards Vather.Coming to stand at the back of his seat while placing his fat palm on his shoulder.All the students in the canteen looked towards their side as they wanted to watch how the movie will occur.But their expressions became a little strange in the next second.
Vather slowly grabbed a glass of fruit juice as he downed it in one gulp while a loud belching sound emerged from his mouth.
The surrounding students look at him strangely as even when he knew he was in big trouble he still has time to drink a juice.
"The Raiden family,the Raiden family,the Raidens family.It just keep repeatedly buzzing in my ear everytime like a dying old mosquito afraid of commiting suicide."Vather said as he slowly took out a tissue paper and wiped his mouth.
"It seems I'll have to start living up to the role of acting like a young master,too"
He said as he moved his hands towards his belt area to make some important adjustment, as it was proving too tight after the crazy food fiesta he just had but he discovered that the huge palm on his shoulder was getting in the way of that.
"Take away your hand"a voice said breaking the silence that hung in the canteen.
The fat boy couldn't believe what the young man told him as he stretched his head forward placing his huge cheeks within Vather's reach.
"What?"
"I said take away your hands" Vather repeated again his voice growing sterner but he was screaming to himself in glee inside as he thought'what perfect timing'.
Vather slowly raised up his hand without turning his head as the back of his hand slammed into the huge cheek beside him.
An overwhelming force slammed into Jill's cheek as he felt the whole world spinning around him.He felt the feeling of being at the center of the worlds and everything revolving around him as he was unable to differentiate the difference between the sky and the ground.
A body was sent flying into the wall like a broken doll making a hole in it as he disappeared into the distance from the force.
All the students present slowly took away their gaze from the doll and at the young man while sucking a deep breath in as they looked at Vather who had a foolish satisfied expression on his face after successfully making adjustments to his belts.
Slowly looking at Liam in front of him,a voice said to him shocking him to his bones.
"You disappointed me,Liam.You're a forgetful fool"Vather said as he stared at the young man before him.
"When I met you,what did I say my name was?"
"Vather Celestria" Liam uttered into the air as he wondered what he forgot in that.
"You scream of the Raidens because they were able to have a supreme commander from their bloodline,have you forgotten the Celestria?" Vather said causing all the students present to almost Pop out their eyeballs while an incredulous expression appeared on Liam's face.
"You.. You're..."
"It's been sixteen days since this daddy has been isolated in the cave, thinking about the daos.Everything has been to quiet lately, It'll only be right if I show everyone what I've learned from it.Come with me Liam.Help me bring Mason out of his tortoise cave.A little fun wouldn't kill right?" Vather uttered causing Liam to immediately follow happily behind him rapidly tapping on his watch.
The students present in the canteen quickly followed after the duo's shadow as they also thought to themselves 'A little fun wouldn't kill right'.But only if they know the fun they'll all be in soon.
