บท 36: Uni School

Making a pill with Three Fruit Tree is not as easy as ripen the fruits. Then why did I ripen it to the risk of my exposure? Because even if I can't make a pill yet, it will increase the quality of mana in the room.

I placed the pot to a corner and went back to the table.

"I need lots of ingredients. Ingredients can be found in markets easily, but some names are different in this world than in my memory." I grabbed a blank paper and started to write with a language I learned in my previous world to be safe. Then I went to bed to sleep with my girls.

In the morning, when I wake up, I was alone in bed. The sounds of dishwares and the scent of sweet breakfast energized me. I darted out of the bed and took a quick shower. When I was done, the table was ready, and we had an astounding breakfast.

"Brother-" Demetra started to speak after serving me a cup of tea, "It has been two days, and we haven't left the house. I know it not safe for us to leave the house, but can't you find a way?" Her hesitant tone stabbed an arrow to my heart.

"Soon. Please give your useless brother a few more days." I said downcasted. I looked at the reflection on the tea and started to think. It wasn't that my sister couldn't leave the house. But Ylva absolutely could not. To accompany her, my sisters decided to stay with her, but it was still bothering me.

I felt three pairs of arms hugging me from my sides and my back. "It is not what we meant, brother." This time it was Desideria who spoke. "We just want you to be safe while outside, and we want to support you. Find a way for us to go out, so we can help you to."

"Yes, Desmond. Don't mind me. Your sisters should be able to go out." Yvla said, sadly.

"Don't worry. I tested some of the secret tunnels yesternight, and all of them seem safe. When I find a solid footing, I will take you out as well."

After leaving the house, I started to walk through the streets. I had a few destinations in mind, but I didn't know which one I should take first. After some thinking, I decided to take care of my sisters first. I walked towards to Beast Race district.

Arriving at a magnificent building, I walked inside. At the side, there was a reception desk and a girl with beautiful white wings. "Hello, how may I help you, sir?" She smiled sweetly, as she greeted me.

"I would like to know more about this school," I said.

"Of course, sir. Our Uni Glory Elemental School aims to teach younglings of every race the secrets of elements, and the path to greater heights..."

After explaining how their courses were regulated by elements or races adjusted for the students, I had to accept, the school was great.

"How about the safety of students?" I asked with a satisfied smile.

"There are some activists targets our students from time to time, but I assure you our school set a great deal on the security of students. We, of the Beast Race, accept people of all races, and definitely will not treat them differently."

"How about a wanted person? Can you register a wanted person as a student?" I had to ask. I didn't want Ylva to stick inside the house all the time.

"That might be a little problematic. Can you tell me the details, sir?" She said hesitantly.

"I cannot disclose any information without insurance, sorry," I said and decided to check other schools first.

"Please wait, and I will contact my supervisor. He can arrange a better term than me," she said and flashed out a Bonder Stone. After a few minutes of waiting, a hairy man with a monkey tail and glasses came down from the stairs.

"Sir, he is our principal, Ginhon Jade." she introduced the man, "Principal, sir. This gentleman would like to speak some private issues with you.

"By all means, please follow me." Principal Jade gestured me to follow him respectfully and walked in front. While we were walking, we introduced ourselves. After coming to a room on the second floor, he let me walk in first and closed the door behind himself.

"I heard from Miss Cian that you have a problem with security," he said after sitting behind his table.

"I need you to give me guarantee that nothing we speak will leave this room, otherwise please forgive my rudeness, but I cannot speak freely," I said bluntly. The safety of my girls was the most important thing for me.

"You can be assured, nothing we speak will be heard by a third soul," he said resolutely.

"I don't know if you heard of manhunt the Plus Church has started?" I said. 'Well, more like she-wolf hunt.'

"The girl Ylva is with you?" He said, jumping off from his seat. His finding out my secret, scared me shitless. I was about to run out of the room and go somewhere far away, his next word stopped me. "That little lass scared the shit out of me."

"You know her?" I asked, dumbstruck.

"Of course, I know her. Her father was a close pal of mine." Monkey man said reminiscing. I didn't know if he was saying the truth but at least he convinced me to sit and listen more.

"If you knew her, why didn't you help her when she was in trouble?" I asked rudely. Ylva had been through a lot after his father died, if the principal of such a school was a close friend with him, at least he could do was helping his daughter.
