Chapter 24: 24:Stop Barking!
What happened today might be a part of John's ploy but in truth, it was orchestrated by Lin Fang.
Falling in love with campus Belle, he wanted to get rid of the competition so he used John to strike Leon to kick him out while later dragging John.
Principal Albert was his backer whom he met by chance and learned that he was his grandfather's friend who felt guilty about his family's extermination.
But now, let alone stepping into the limelight, he even made a bad impression on Su Lin.
John patted Lin Fang and left, giving him a longing glance.
Seeing John left with a foul expression, the fury in Lin Fang's heart burnt furiously.
'Just wait! Let's see if you keep acting arrogant.'
Turning around, Lin Fang apologized to Albert for the trouble.
"It's not your fault kid. I did this for my gain. If I had done John a favor, I would have gotten a favor from the Weiss family."
Lin Fang knew that the Principal was saying this to lessen his guilt but he felt quite indebted to him.
'Principal Albert, I swear that once I get stronger I will do everything in my power to help you rise in power.'
'As per Miss Su, once I perform well she will be the one coming for me.'

[Foiling Lin Fang, you have lowered Lin Fang's impression in Su Lin's eyes. Gained 1 counterattack point.]
On his way to the classroom, Leon heard the sound of heels slapping against the floor. On turning back, he found Su Lin running towards him.
"Leon, wait a minute. I have something to say."Su Lin voiced her words softly, taken aback by Leon's mysterious aura.
'He seems to have undergone a drastic change. Both mentally and physically as if he had matured enough in such a short span.'
"Yes!"Leon exclaimed, giving her a skeptical glance.
This dogshit world needs purer people like her, and as future development, let time take its course.
Leon was in class D which consists of foreign students who either come from outside or will be going outside. It was like a reserved class full of misfits and also rich.
There was a Martial Division, John, and Lin Fang were present.
Her step-sister moved to that class with her boyfriend getting rid of trouble for him.
Leon getting kicked out had been spread all around. So, most of the students who had contact with the upper echelon knew this.
He too had some sidekicks licking his feet but they were beaten by Seph Greymore brutally after which everyone kept their distance from him.
So, he was all alone still enjoying listening to the class as it was a novel experience for him, and learning things had always been enjoyable for him.
The entire day went well with no more trouble but the next day was not as peaceful as he expected.
Leon, who was slurping noodles in the cafeteria, suddenly heard loud clattering around him.
He was unfazed until a girl stood before him.
She possessed a captivating grace, with sleek, jet-black hair cascading down her shoulders, framing a face adorned with striking features. Her elegance was accentuated by the subtle charisma that radiated from her presence, making her a sight to behold among her peers.
"Leon, we need to talk."She spoke in a commanding tone.
Leon analyzed the girl from head to toe. It was none other than his so-called stepsister Ella Befort.
"I am eating," Leon answered, ignoring her.
"You can eat afterward. Come with me first," Ella spoke against but seeing him ignoring her, she raised her voice in annoyance.
"Hey, didn't you hear? Stop eating and follow me. I have something important to talk about."
Leon sighed, putting down his fork, and stared at Ella coldly, making her frown.
"Hey!"
"Either wait for me to finish my meal or leave."
"And stop barking like an annoying dog, bitch."
