Bab 4: Chapter 4
Dan knew what was going to happen. This elf had brought someone from her family. Maybe her mother. She said that that she was a princess did she not?
Synthia jumped out of her seat and pointed a finger at Dan. "That's him, it's him. He is the one who dared to hit me and my friends. He set brignur on fire." She exclaimed
The lady in her chair stood up and tried slapping him. Her hand was stopped a few centimetres away from Dan's cheeks.
The Student council head stopped her hand.
"Your highness, forgive me for grabbing your hand but please refrain from hitting our students."
The lady smacked away Pedro's hand and towered over Dan. "You filthy human You dare to lay your hands on my sister. A member of the royal elven family of the Flower kingdom. I should have your head for this."
Dan listened to her before speaking calmly. "I am sorry but I have never met that lady or you in my entire life. I think you are mistaking me for someone else."
This was 100% percent a lie. Dan knew who she was. She was the girl he beat up yesterday.
Smack!!!!
Before anyone could react The ladies hand hit Dan across the cheek. Dan saw it coming but he let it hit him.
"You imbecile, you dare mock me and waste my time. I have important matters of state to attend to. All of you humans are all the the same. You are all liars and dumb. There is no other human in the entirety of the Demon kingdom other than you."
Dan touched his cheek. The slap did not hurt one bit. It was fast but it lacked power. He did not want to make an enemy of the eleven Kingdom. This lady was also a princess. If they both said he had hit them then his village would not be safe. It was time to you use his silver tongue.
"From what I hear this lady was attacked by a human. I did not know humans were strong enough to defeat an elven princess who is said to have powerful magic and her companions. I am a human, yes but I am not strong enough to go against a being with powerful magic. I am not stupid enough to attack a member of the royal elven family. Or do you wish to say that a mere human with no name is strong enough to defeat an eleven princess."
"Do not believe him sister. He is lying. He broke my teeth and stole me and my friends money and jewellery." Synthia exclaimed.
The elven princess hesitated. She shook her head swaying her long hair from side to side. She bit her finger before speaking. "Was this your plan?" She asked Dan.
"I beg your pardon, your majesty." Dan would feign ignorance until the end.
"You attacked my sister knowing full well that if we took any action of any kind against you it would mean that we admitted that a royal princess was defeated by a human Male. This would bring dishonour and shame to the royal family."
'Excellent insight.' Dan thought. 'but it's useless if you attack me. You would not dare to bring shame upon your family by admitting it, attacking me and reporting it back.'
The lady stopped biting her fingernail. The temperature dropped and the lady threw a huge lance made from ice at Dan.
A small shadowy figure appeared in front of Dan and caught the ice lance in midair. "I'm pretty sure our student Body head told you to refrain from hitting our students."
Dan did not see what had happened. He just saw a small short figure wearing a blue cloak in front of him holding a giant ice lance.
Pedro did not know what was going on he just stood there trying to comprehend what just happened.
This was a natural reaction because all of this happened within a second. "You dare stop me Princess Olivia,the second born princess of the flower Kingdom."
"I have every right to. After all I am the headmaster of this academy. We already had a student die, we do not need a second student to die in this academy."
"I want that man's head." Olivia said. "I will have his head one way or the other. I will not allow him to disrespect our family." The head master smashed the ice lance with his hands.
"He said he did not attack her end of story. If you wish to continue like this then you can use lie detection magic. If he is lying then I will take all responsibility and discipline him but if it turns out he did not attack her are you willing to abdicate your title."
Princess Olivia thought about it for a while but then just left the room grumbling under her breath. Her sister followed her in her long high heels.
The headmaster closed the door behind them and turned his attention to Dan. "Dan, don't do stupid stuff like attacking royalty. This time I covered for you but that does not mean I will always be there for you."
".... Who are you?" the headmaster sighed and didn't bother answering him. He just teleported away. "That was the headmaster. It makes sense that you don't know who he is. No one has ever seen him." Pedro answered.
Pedro and Dan's gaze met and they both burst into laughter.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAIt was you wasn't it?" Pedro asked as tears formed in his eyes from laughter.
"HAHAHAH Who else would it be? Did you see the dumb looks on there faces?" Dan was cry laughing now. After Pedro and Dan stopped laughing Dan decided to get serious. Pedro was the student body head. The third born of the demon lord. He had 2 goat horns, red skin and a long tail with an arrow at the end.
"Why is the headmaster a 10 year old child?" Dan asked.
"He's actually 32 years old. He has stunted growth so he stayed like that since a child. He never showed himself at school because of his form."
"Say Pedro, why don't we leave this country together?"
Pedro looked at Dan as if he was spouting nonsense. "You always ask me that question Dan and I have thought of that Dante but I have a responsibility, I can't run away from it. I am a candidate for demon lord and you know that."
"Pedro you are a coward, how do you expect to run a country if you do not know how big the world is. The demon Lord succession ceremony is in 5 years time." Dan had always wanted to leave this country when he was younger. He would ask Pedro to come with him to explore the world but Pedro refused every time saying that he had a responsibility to his people. He had to stay and study. This was the problem though. The Demon Lord Succession ceremony was a ceremony in which anyone who wanted to become the demon lord would participate in.
They had to show leadership and all qualities of a good leader and they had to defeat the current demon lord. The current demon lord was Pedro's father.
"Pedro there are things that are more important than being a demon lord. If you so desperately want to become a demon lord then become stronger. Do you think you can defeat your father like this. To run a kingdom you need alliances with other nations, you need power and great leadership. The charisma to pull in people."
Pedro sat down in his chair behind his desk. "Dante, Do you have a system?" He asked
Dan was surprised but then it dawned on him.
"So you have a system as well?"
"Yes, I received mine a week ago. it said I was player number 13 and introduced itself as system no 3. Going by that definition then it means that there are already 12 other people with systems. My sister said last night that 11 heroes were summoned three months ago. If those heroes have systems then that meant that there was someone else who had a system. I noticed that you are not wearing your glasses therefore meaning you increased your eyesight and you have been working out all morning. Which is why I came to the conclusion that you have a system. I also tried scanning you but it was blocked by something. According to the system this was only possible when that person's strength is beyond comprehension or they had a system."
That was pretty smart Dan thought. In terms of observation when compared to Pedro Dan was like an ant in front of an elephant.
"Is that not a good thing? If you have a system then that means that you can get strong enough to face your father within 5 years. If someone else defeats your Father then your family will be kicked out of the royal family and sooner or later your father will be defeated. Every era must come to an end. If you want to become stronger then come with me. We will become stronger together."
Pedro considered Dan's words but there was a huge mistake in his plan. His blind trust in the system. True, it could make a person stronger but at what cost. Why was it that Pedro and Dan were the only two people besides the 11 summoned heroes? That was to shady, but he came to the same conclusion as Dan, even if it was shady he would use it to grow stronger.
"So what do you say? I plan on leaving tonight, think about it. You can join me if you want. I will wait for you at the Bluewall Tree. When it reaches midnight I will leave. You can think about it all day." Dan walked towards the door but before he left he turned around to Pedro. "How did the headmaster know what was going on?"
"Huh,oh...uh, clairvoyance. I gave him permission to see through my eyes what was going on. Normally he can use clairvoyance without needing permission but my resistance is to high so he needs my permission to use clairvoyance on me."
Dan left and closed the door behind him. He really wanted Pedro to join him. Pedro and Dan went way back. They met as kids and had been best friends ever since. Pedro was Dan's one and only friend. The one person who understood him.
Classes had already started started but he did not care. He would skip classes today. He planned on spending time in the school gym until lunch time and then he would leave.
4 hours Hours passed and it reached lunch time.
Dan noticed that it became harder to earn exp and stat points after a while. It started of easy but it became harder and harder to earn stats. His strength, endurance and stamina was had greatly improved.
➡️Level (7)➡️ level (9)
1600 exp left to level up (3400/5000)

Stamina(100/100) ➡️ (170/170)
Endurance (100/100) ➡️ (170/170)
➡️Shop is open
Dan decided that it he had done enough working out on his upper body. His strength had increased but now it was time to work on his speed.
He went to the bathroom and took a bath. He used magic to shower himself with water. He cleaned his sweat drenched clothes and dried it by removing all the water from his clothes using magic.
➡️Beginner Magic Proficiency (98%)➡️(99%)
Dan theorized that if he used magic over and over again he would be better at magic. What Dan failed to notice was that the system already told him this.
The toilet was a mess. It was overflowing with water. The steam that was coming out of the toilet prevented anyone from coming in.
He quickly put on his clothes, grabbed his backpack and left the toilet before he drew too much attention.
He went upstairs to the roof to enjoy his lunch.
The roof was practically a cafeteria. There were tables and chairs to sit down and eat at. The ledges had plants and flowers of different kinds. Sunflowers, daffodils, Rose's and Blue lilacs among others.
As soon as Dan set foot on the roof people spoke in hushed voices.
He could hear several people talking about him, "Why did they allow such a person to enter this academy?"
"This is an academy for everyone except humans."
"What happened to his glasses. He's look more handsome without it."
"Bastard thinks he's better than us."
"Let's teach him a lesson then."
"Haven't you heard? He beat Princess Synthia and set the dwarven prodigy Brignur on fire."
"Seriously that was him?"
"Its a rumour, but it has great credibility. They say he stole the princesses money and left her to die."
"Princess Olivia came this morning but they did not seem to find anything on him."
Dan was already used to this. He did not care or anything. He was not bothered by them in any way. "Yo Dante! come over here."
It was Muk and the other kids from the village. Muk, a half ogre half giant called him over to his table. He was a tall around 9 foot 5 with massive shoulders and chest. His muscles looked more like stones than muscles.
Dan walked up to their table and sat down squeezing himself between 2 goblins.
"So Dan are the rumours true?" was the first thing that came out of Muk's mouth when he sat down. Muk heard the rumours of Dan's fight with the princess. He was amazed at Dan for having the courage to hit royalty. He did not even have the courage to talk to a woman let alone hit one.
He had always looked up Dan and wanted to be like him. A human who grew up in a village of monsters. What amazed Muk the most was how everyone in the village loved Dan. Lot's of parents would tell their children to be like Dan. Dan was a role model to all the kids in the village.
He was stronger than most humans, he helped around a lot in the village. The people in the village loved him so much that they would take a sword to the gut for him. Dan was the only outsider to the villager who was considered as family.
"Who told you that? Why would I do something like that?" Dan asked. "You're not planning on fighting royalty are you? That would create problems for the village. Think before you act."
Muk pressed the cigarette end and took a long hard puff. The smoke came out in the form of a long exaggerated sigh.
Muk stubbed out the cigarette in an ashtray that was on the table. He put his hand to his mouth and coughed lightly.
"I'm not stupid like you, I just asked you a simple question." This was false. Had Dan said yes he would have tried fighting the various princes and princesses in the academy.
Dan took his lunchbox out of his bag. He smelled in the aroma coming from it. The smell was very faint as it had been inside a bag for the entire day.
"It's fish," Muck said, "Salmon to be precise. It has been marinated in red chilli powder and lemon. The bones have been removed. There is rice on the side but they have been both mixed together from violent shaking" Muck had a superior sense of smell due to his half ogre and giant blood.
"I hate spoiler's." Dan said. He removed the lid of his lunchbox. He took out the spoon,knife and fork that had been attached to the under side of the lid. The food looked like a mess to be honest. Dan thought back and remembered that he did not remove his bag when he was doing his daily mission.
Dan was hungry. Working out that long had made him hungry. He scooped up some rice, cut a piece of fish and put it in his mouth. It tasted like raw meat that had been dipped in spoilt milk. He really must have did a number on it when he was working out.
"It tastes disgusting," Dan said. "Give a cigarette pack and I'll give you my lunch."
Muk rummaged in his back pack which was very large. He took out a pack of cigarettes and slid it across the table towards Dan and took his lunchbox.
Dan took out a cigarette from the pack and put the rest into his blazers pocket He placed the cigarette it in his mouth and was about to light it with fire magic but was stopped by the goblin sitting next to him. The goblin took out a lighter from his pocket and lit it for Dan.
"There is a big difference when you light it with Fire magic and an actual lighter."
"Thanks."
This was true. Dan felt it. He took a puff and it was heavier than whenever he lit it with magic.
➡️ Unknown substance has been detected.
Would you like to detoxify?
Yes/No
Dan recalled how last time the marijuana's effect he was feeling was removed from his body.
"No."
"Ho r vu twaking 2?" Muk asked in between mouthfuls. He sprayed the area with food coming from his mouth.
"Swallow first you oaf." Dan wiped the food and spit from his face with a handkerchief.
"Anyways when you finish eating bring the lunchbox to my house."
Dan picked up his bag and stood up. He coughed lightly from the cigarette which he had not removed from his mouth.
As he walked down the stairs Dan started thinking about his future. What he would do after he left home. How would he escape home.
Dan stopped in his tracks. He had not thought about it. How was he going to run away.
