Theodore got on Arthur’s nerves since the first time they met. He only stopped after witnessing Arthur become the president of the academy.
It turned out he was now challenging Arthur’s authority. How could he call himself the president if he did not protect his own students?
The girl also shared with him where Theodore was. It seemed he was mistreating others inside the dorm, so that is where Arthur went.
The dorm was not that far from the mansion, so it did not take long to reach. Some students who were nearby could see the anger on Arthur’s face.
“President seems pissed. Who is the unlucky?”
“I don’t know, but I’m happy it isn’t me.” Inside the dorm, Theodore was talking shit to other students.
“Huh? Do you really think I’ll share my room with someone else? On your dreams.”
“But this is the rules. There are few rooms for us, so it is two people for one room.”
“This rule doesn’t apply to a noble like me. Grab your stuff and get the hell out of my room.”
Theodore was kicking another youth from his room. They were supposed to share the room and be roommates, but it seemed like Theodore was not fond of that idea.
The dorm was similar to the mansion, but on a much smaller scale. Arthur went inside, and heard those last sentences of the arguing.
“What is happening here?”
When Arthur’s voice echoed in the hall, everyone turned their heads and gazed at him.
Besides Theodore and the man he was fighting with, there were also some others around watching everything. Like kids watching a fight.
Theodore disliked Arthur since the first time they met, and even now he still thought Arthur got the title of president just because of luck, or because he knew Jane somehow.
“Oh, it is Mr President. Am I in trouble? Surely not.” Theodore said in a mocking tone.
Some others near him laughed after that statement. It seemed he was getting some followers.
“Is this guy challenging my authority?” Arthur thought.
“It seems you’re fighting with this other student. Could you explain the reason?”
“Of course. I was just arguing that I don’t want to share my room with this commoner. I paid to get here, and we all deserve at least one room for each one of us.”
“Yes, you did pay, but no one forced you. And I will be the one studying and seeing how to spend this money to improve the school. But, as everyone knows, we need this money for many other things, and not a room for a spoiled kid.”
The hall was silent, and only Theodore and his ‘followers’ had the guts to say something.
“How can someone as incompetent as you run this school? This is crazy. I guess you’re a commoner just like this guy.”
That was the end of the line for him. Arthur was already being patient enough to listen to that bullshit, but now that he was talking about parents, that was not cool.
Arthur was, after all, an orphan.
“It is funny that you don’t even know me, and yet see me as incompetent. I think it is the same with your father, you know. I don’t know him, yet I know he is a piece of shit to raise someone like you.”
Theodore listened to that, and was red with anger, but before he could say anything, Arthur appeared right in front of him.
“Everyone that is here, listen to this carefully. I’m a good guy, I can promise you that, but cross the line, and you’ll be punished.”
“You, Theodore, you want a room for yourself, right?”
“I- I do.” Theodore was still shocked to see Arthur vanishing like that, but he still answered it.
“Good. Then for now on you’ll not sleep here anymore.”
Theodore had a smile on his face after hearing that, and was ready to talk more shit, until he listened to the next sentence.
“You’ll be sleeping in the woods with the animals. From this day, you don’t have a uniform anymore, and will come to class only wearing underwear. Also, if you say any more shit about me or any other students, I’ll cut your dick, and shove it on your throat. Understood?”
“Ha, you would-”
Before he finished, Arthur punched in the face. The perfect nose he was so proud of was now completely broken, and a stream of blood dripped from his face.
“You’ll only speak when I say.”
“Ah, my, my nose is broken.”
Another punch followed, and the broken nose got even worse.
“Like I said, you’ll only speak when I say you to.”
After the second punch, Theodore was knocked out. He was still only level 4, and barely knew any magic. How could he challenge Arthur’s authority? That man was crazy.
Arthur grabbed him, and left the dorm.
The students were all frozen, until someone said.
“Did you guys see that? That is a real man. We all need to learn from our master Arthur.”
“You’re right. Anyone that dares to challenge him is stupid.”
“Now that you’re saying this, didn’t those students laugh a few moments ago?”
The small followers Theodore apologized to them, and almost cried on the spot.
Arthur had Theodore on his shoulders, and left to the woods. He went to the deeper parts, until he found a good place to put him.
He also took out all of his clothes except for the underwear, and burned them.
With his claws, he wrote a sentence on the ground that said ‘You can only come to the school to attend class, and that’s it. If I see you eating our food or trying to sleep in our rooms, I’ll kill you. Also, don’t talk shit to others and apologize to everyone tomorrow, or I’ll kill you too. And, if you share this with anyone, I’ll kill you too.’
“Hm, I think this is good. Now, I can’t wait to talk with my girls!” Arthur thought.
