Chapter 44: Forgetfulness

After walking for a moment towards his dorm, Angus stops at a nearby bench. "Tch.. It seems my wound is more serious than I thought. Damn, that old dwarf really hit me hard."

Then, Angus looked for a secluded spot before sitting down. He undresses his upper clothes and examines carefully about his wound.

Fortunately, there are no ones around or people will realize his dense muscle body despite being a child body. During this time he also checked his status panel.

Host: Angus Victory

Age: 8 Years Old

MP: 36/100

Heritage chi: ???

Strength: 12

Dexterity: 12

Intelligence: 15

Vitality: 20

Soul Point: 132

"Tch.. I spent a lot of mana during the battle. Need to recover it first." As Angus entered into meditation silently.

After a while, Angus feels his internal wound is slightly healed and his mana is fully recovered.

Normally, restoring mana could not be done very fast especially if you had a large mana reserve. However, Angus has an endless amount of Heritage chi that are ready to be refined into mana anytime.

So, recovering mana in a short time is a small matter for Angus. As long as he has time to meditate for a while, he could recover his mana instantly.

Then, he presses the pressure point on his body using his finger. After a few moments, he feels his inside hurting and spits out dark blood clots from his mouth.

He flicks his hands and creates a blue flame on both his hands [Healing art - Rejuvenation Flame]. The blue flame seems mystical and warm.

Controlling the blue flame, Angus pressed his flaming palm all over his body. He immediately feels a hot sensation inside his body. He feels like being roasted alive.

After a while, the burning sensation changes into a warm and soothing sensation. It's like he is soaked inside the warm water.

Soon, the sensation recedes and his body feels as good as new. If it is not because of his tiredness expression in his face, nobody will realize he has been through a hard fight.

As for his knuckle, it is still bleeding a little bit from clashing with the old dwarf's hammer directly. However, the broken bone has already healed and become stronger than before.

"I truly admire the one that created this healing technique. Beside the huge consumption energy, it is truly a miracle for internal wounds type." as Angus put on his clothes before going back to his dorm.

Walking below the moonlight and cold wind of night, Angus marvels at the surroundings that seem to be silent and calm despite the hard battle he just did a few hours before.

Thinking of this, he began to remember the fight from before and how powerless he is. After a while, he shook his head.

'Why am I getting moody just for losing one unreasonable fight? Is it what they called puberty time? Haa… Forget about it. I will just go with the flow.' Thought Angus inwardly.

Arriving at the dorm, he immediately went inside his room. It is already quite late and everyone is occupied in their own dorm to study or sleep. So, Angus could get into his room without any hassle.

Inside his room, he immediately takes a bath and tends his bleeding knuckle. Soon, he fell asleep on his bed because of exhaustion.

The next morning, he wakes up along with the sunrise. Angus feels refreshed and healthy. After doing some light exercise routine, he eats his breakfast before everyone shows up like usual.

Then, he goes to his class while enjoying the surroundings as his habit. Arriving early, Angus sits on his spot and immediately 'sleeps' like usual. It didn't feel like he was after having a rough fight the day before.

While he is sleeping, he feels like he has forgotten something. But, since he forgot about it, he thought that it was nothing important and continued his sleep.

Meanwhile inside the smithing area, Balrug is ready to explode in anger anytime. "Where is he?!! Bail, Get your ass over here!!"

"Y-Yes, Boss." as Bail approached the boss.

"Get that brat over here now!!" command Balrug.

"A-Alright." said Bail immediately.

Before Bail went away, 'Hold on a second. Who's the name of the kid once again?'

Looking at Bail still not going away, "Why are you still here? Did you want me to smack your ass?!" shouted Balrug angrily.

"N-No, Boss. I mean… Did you happen to know who is the name of the kid?" asked Bail nervously.

Hearing this Balrug is silent for a moment, "Who is the kid's name?" asked Balrug back.

"Ehh… I thought that boss already knew him." replied Bail.

"I-I… Forget about it. Just bring the damn kid right now!!" shouted Balrug towards Bail once again.

Hearing this, Bail could only get out quickly from Balrug's room before getting hit by his furious old boss.

As for Angus himself, he is listening to teacher Elis's lesson about History seriously. Many people like to underestimate history and think of it as a boring subject.

But, as someone who has already experienced life twice, Angus feels that history is quite important. For him he thought history is a kind of story about some incident to learn.

The important things in the history is not the story itself but the things that could be learned from the history itself so it will never be repeated again.

Normally, he needs a lot of effort to remember every detail about the history lesson. However, Angus has his intelligence boosted by the system and makes him remember it without any effort.

Although now it only covers the Heart Kingdom's history, it still has a lot of things to remember. Because of this reason, most of the students will find themself couldn't comprehend anything about the history course.

Some of them even fall asleep. Unfortunately for them, the royal academy emphasizes the quality over quantity that leads to having few students inside a class. None of them has a chance to sleep since they will get woken up by the teacher immediately.

Still that didn't mean they will listen to the teachers 'story' hearthfully. Most of the student often ignore the 'story' or just put a 'blank' expression thinking something else while pretending to hear about the 'story'

Even for Princess Jayna, hailed as a genius in academics and combat also could not escape this kind of predicament. In her case, she chooses to put on a mask facade to listen to the class seriously while actually she is thinking something else.

If not because someone disturb her about something, no one knows that she is actually not listening to the lesson. But, because of her status, no one is brave enough to disturb her during her daydreaming.

This seems a perfect plan for her until now. During the lesson, Angus suddenly drops his eraser and it falls below Princess Jayna.

The Princess herself is not noticing this and keeps her 'daydreaming'. But, Angus couldn't pick up the eraser on his own since he didn't want to peek at something he shouldn't see.

So, Angus tries to call the princess slowly to not disturb the class. But, the princess kept ignoring him and put on her masked facade pretending to listen to the class.

Left with no choice, Angus makes a small ball from a little piece of paper and throws it at the princess desk. Still being ignored, he threw more small paper balls towards her.

Until finally the princess notices something. She realizes that Angus is throwing some paper balls towards her and it is accumulating them at her desk.

Annoyed by this, "Angus!!" she shouted as reflex.

"Ms. Heart!! We are still in the class now." said teacher Elis.

"I-I am sorry teacher Elis." apologize to the princess before she is grumping silently.

At this moment. Angus called her silently once again. Because of the previous incident, the princess decided to ignore him.

Then, Angus once again threw small paper balls towards her once again. At first she decided to ignore it. But, later the small paper balls hit her head a few times and annoyed her.

"What!!" as she shouted towards Angus.

At this moment, teacher Elis glared at her chilingly, "Ms. Heart, If you didn't want to listen to the lecture you could go outside now."

"Eh.. B-But it's Angus's fault." said the princess frantically.

As for Angus himself, he just pretends to write something in his notebook before he looks to be surprised at his name being called.

Looking at this, "Ms. Heart, go outside now."

"Ehh… B-But…" as the princess tries to defend herself.

"Enough excuse, Ms. Heart. Go outside until the lecture is done." said the teacher Elis chillingly.

Hearing this, the princess could only obey the teacher while glaring at Angus. But, as soon as the princess walked towards the door, Angus stood up from his seat and attracted the others.

Before anyone could respond, he walked towards the princess's desk and picked up his eraser before walking back to his seat.

Looking at this, the princess realizes that Angus disturb her because of a single eraser and now she is being punished for it. But, what makes her more furious is Angus's laid back attitude and the act of not doing anything wrong.

'Angus!!! Just for a single eraser!! GRRR!!' Cursed the princess inwardly

The princess immediately gets out of the class grumpily while cursing Angus inside her heart. Although she is a royalty and a princess, she makes a promise to follow the academy rules and make sure to not cause unnecessary trouble inside the academy.

Because of this promise, she couldn't use her authority to fight against the teacher for something like this. In the end, she could only pay back at a later time towards Angus.
