Chapter 183 - The Magic Academy - Part 2

Chills ran down Rowan's spine when he heard that. It was because of the red glowing eyes.

Depending on perspective, one could say if those eyes were beautiful or intimidating.

*gulp*

'What's with this weird pressure...?', Rowan asked himself.

Whatever the case may be, it was for sure that Rex was trying to scare Rowan probably because he didn't want him to plot some useless thing.

Rex had observed earlier that Rowan was against him since the beginning due to which he knew that Rowan would be the only one who would oppose him and that too strongly!

"How..."

"How dare you speak to me like that!?", Rowan raised his voice as if he wanted to show who was superior, but he soon became speechless again when Rex showed him his true power.

'Zwoop'

Rex unleashed all the seal all of a sudden and quickly controlled his aura and presence.

Basically. it was as if his power vanished, but in reality, his aura was in stealth mode.

The difference between earlier forms when he had sealed his powerr and his form where he unleashed his power by unlocking the seals was quite small.

Earlier, he couldn't use any sort of magic, one could render him mana less!

While in the second case, he could use magic, at least until his MP lasts. However one couldn't make the difference since in both cases his presence was nill probably because he was controlling the aura all along.

Now he could use magic since the limits were removed. And that's what he did precisely.

He used magic that took Rowan to some weird random place, to be precise, a different dimension.

"Wha-"

"Where am I?"

"What is this place?", Rowan was shocked to see that everything around him was blue-black!

"Just what the heck is going on?"

"Wasn't I in the dining place a moment ago?", tons of questions were showered by him on him the answer for which was none!

He was confused and shocked. He turned his gazes here and there but found nothing other than emptiness.

"So, you have something on your mind?", a loud and dominating voice was heard by him.

"Huh...?", Rowan turned his head back only to find Rex in front of him.

Rowan's face was filled with fear, the reason was simple, he was looking at a giant!

Yes, it was a giant version of Rex. He was huge and was looking down at Rowan with Red glowing eyes just like earlier.

However, since his eyes looked bigger, he flinched and was much more scared!

"I..."

Rowan wanted to apologize to him, however his voice seemed to have been lost. He had no strength at all to aid his vocal cords!

Rex wanted to continue this longer, at least until Rowan apologized which he was going to do soon enough, but unfortunately one of the maids started walking towards the dining hall, of course, Rex sensed her!

"Uh, actually..."

He almost immediately stopped the magic and treated Rowan as if nothing had happened, at least until the maid passed by and went upstairs.

"So, do you understand your place now?", all of a sudden Rex's age changed yet again and he stared at Rowan with intimidating eyes and asked this.

"Yes...", Rowan had felt the killing intent from Rex which he emitted intentionally.

Rowan was Elendo's brother, he had a separate kingdom of his own because he had a conflict with Elendo earlier.

Of course, they realized that it was a misunderstanding and become much more close. Regardless of that, Rowan was one of the top warriors and one of the strongest Kings.

His powers weren't to be underestimated, of course, he wouldn't be anywhere near Alex or Elendo, but he was still strong, strong enough to defeat ten Daryuns on his own!

"I'm sorry...", Rowan lowered his head when he said that.

The evil aura from his body started to dissipate and it seemed like it almost vanished.

Rex had a dimple policy, instead of making tons of enemies, it is wiser to make one friend! And according to that, he wanted Rowan to become his supporter too.

"Listen, uncle, I respect you a lot."

"I know that you are thinking about your daughter because of all the rumors around him..."

"But be at ease, so long as I am alive and as long as she is engaged with me, I wouldn't let anyone harm her.", was what rex said.

He might have told that just to earn Rowan's favor, but it seemed like it got engraved in his heart. It was as if his body agreed to that!

Rowan could feel the sincerity in Rex's words, he understood that he was indeed there one who was wrong!

"Hmm..."

"Perhaps you are right..."

"I'm sorry for looking down on you.", was what he said.

Earlier, he apologized just because of fear but now his apologies seemed genuine due to which Rex was happy.

"Haha, now be a cheerful uncle!"

"Don't worry, I will help you whenever you are in need too so just smile, I apologize for what I did too...", Rex said in a low voice and then almost immediately walked out of the mansion.

'I guess this is better...'

'He would no longer be gloomy.', after saying that he vanished from his sight.

While Seria and Elina were talking with each other in the garden and Alex and Elendo were talking on the rooftop, Rex took a stroll to the banquet hall yet again where the Generals, Soldiers, and other warriors were having dinner!

He didn't exactly enter the hall, he just stood in front of the gate while staring at all the guards who were enjoying the dinner and booze.

Of course, Seria spotted Rex passing in front of the garden, but she said nothing and continued the chatter with Elina.

Soon enough the banquet for soldiers was over too, Rex stayed there for some time and came back to sleep after roaming here and there and enjoying the cool breeze along with the designs on the mansions.

He then went back to his room and slept peacefully, it was the same with other members.

Of course, the guards went to sleep too while only a few guards were awake while guarding the place.

Not that there was anything worry here.

Soon enough it was a new day, Rex woke up early enough probably because he was habituated with that with his masters!

Everyone else woke up too and stretched exercised a bit.

Morning training is the best and according to that, all of them went for training.

The garden was the best place to hang out, but it had a battlefield or training field nearby it where the soldiers use to train.

Emilia, Elina, Seria, Elendo and Alex, all of them went there to exercise, this showed how much of a good timetable they had and this was the reason for their perfect body with peak fitness!

Rex was the only one who didn't go, it was the same with Rowan too because he had many things to take care of.

Rex was just meditating in his room and was probably increasing the concentration of his mind and was boosting the strength of his body.

'Although I have unsealed myself, I still don't have a habit of using all these powers...', was what he said to himself.

He was practicing using all of his powers and was circulating mana throughout this entire body.

Well, after practicing for quite some time all of them gathered at the same table, but this time for Breakfast.

Rex arrived in time and so did Emilia, It was the same for everyone, Rowan too was present, well, he was the one who was in charge of assigning the dishes that were to be prepared.

The foot was light enough, but there was some heavy stuff too like meat in the morning!

They started chatting at the table which was in contrast to the silence of yesterday after Rex's arrival.

And while they were talking, a topic rose, 'The Magic Academy'. 

"Your breaks will be over soon right Emilia?", Alex asked.

"Yes, uncle Alex."

"I will be going back to the Magic Academy after two weeks...", was what she said.

"..."

This topic picked Rex's interest because Julia was also in the same magic academy that they were speaking about!

"Can I attend too...?", slipped out of Rex's mouth!

"..."
