Chapter 712 Alcott Strikes Again

"I have some contacts there. I'll get you into the new year at the start of spring." Alcott smiled, "But you'll have to keep a low profile. That means no killing or causing trouble,"

"I already know that. It's the whole reason I'm trying to come up with a way to hide my identity," Arad replied.

"If they knew you're Arad Orion, most nobles would pull their kids out of the university. That'll cause the year to halt," Baltos looked at them, "I doubt they can trust the safety of their children with a kingdom blasting dragon around."

"Who do you intend to take?" Alcott asked.

"Probably all of my wives," Arad replied.

"Isdis can't go with you." Baltos sighed, "She has already been there once. And she's well known. She'll either expose your identity or cause herself several bad rumors to start,"

Alcott nodded, "If people saw you with her and didn't recognize you as her husband, they might start rumors about her cheating. That isn't bad in itself. I doubt that such stories keep getting made about nobles and royalty all the time,"

"The real problem is that people would be afraid that her husband would come raging to the university and blast it to ash, and the nobles would pull their children away." Alcott looked at Arad with a grin.

"It's always them afraid of me blasting the whole place," Arad scratched his head. "Brother is coming as well. I also invited Jack and Abel. Of course, that means Lydia and Sara are joining as well,"

"They won't be a problem. If that all the ones going, it'll be quite easy," Alcott smiled.

"Ah, before I forget. Tempo is coming as well. He said that he'll be coming on his own," Arad stated.

"What?" Both Alcott and Baltos gasped, "Tempo? You mean the Volcanic Titans prince,"

"Who else could it be?"

"I mean... he's indeed known for his strong sense of justice, but he's loud and unpredictable. Think of a fire paladin on an adrenalin rush." Baltos rubbed his eyes.

"His skill with the sword is quite insane, and on top of that, his speed makes him a formidable opponent. Don't fight him, but if you did try to exploit his lack of regeneration or healing. And just like you, if pushed too hard in his humanoid form, he'll transform into his titan body that stands over several kilometers in the air," Alcott stared at Arad.

"Several kilometers?" Arad gasped.

"He's a walking volcano, those are the titans,"

"I should be able to win by blasting him with a [Ho-white nova] in the mouth. He'll explode like that abomination queen did," Arad thought, "But I don't want another feat of destruction to my name. It's already becoming hard to move around the world without scaring everyone."

"You should rest until the end of winter. I'll take that time to contact the university and get everything ready," Alcott looked at the room, "You don't have a calendar here, do you?"

"A calendar, no," Arad shook his head.

"Winter should have at least one month left," Baltos replied, "It's usually a good time to start traveling to the university as it's quite far away, but I doubt travel is a problem for Arad." Baltos smiled, "You're quite fast,"

"It all started because of that woman. Don't blame me." Alcott stared back at him.

"What did happen?" Arad sighed.

"She said I can't cut fourth-level spells with a sword, so I asked her to bet something. She then said that if I managed to cut one of her fourth-level spells, she'd spend a night with me." Alcott looked away, "I was young, and she was quite well endowed, so I didn't miss the chance,"

"So you managed to cut the spell? How?"

"It was a fireball, so I swung the blade reversed downward to create turbulence and then up with the edge to part the fire. You should've seen her face. It was unheard of at that time for a fighter to cut a spell like that," Alcott laughed.

"It didn't help that almost a week later, a dragon went on a rampage near the university and attacked it. That was the first dragon Alcott slayed," Baltos looked at Gojo, "You've seen them there, right?"

"I saw several paintings depicting him splitting a red dragon's fire breath in half with a blade while protecting the students behind him," Gojo looked at Alcott, "If they hailed you as a hero, why would they kick you?"

"It was half them kicking me out, and half me just leaving,"

"Seeing that Alcott was strong beyond belief," Baltos started talking with a tired face, "Everyone wanted the powerful dragon slayer in their families, so nobles started urging their daughters to drag him back home. What made it worse is that Alcott was already popular among the ladies there due to his large build and toned body, which led to tens of girls approaching him." He then glared at Alcott, "And this idiot thought it was a good idea to sleep with all of them,"

"Don't blame me. I was quite young there. What would you have done if approached by such a horde of beauties?" Alcott argued, "Blame the teachers there who also joined in,"

"That's the disappointing part, the director had to take actions," Baltos looked at Alcott, "They had to uphold order,"

Alcott nodded, "But the teachers were the best. They were certainly better than the students." He smiled, "But, I need to point out that the director was quite the hypocrite,"

"Why is that?" Baltos stared at him, sweating as he started to realize where Alcott was going.

"I probably spent more nights with her than anyone else," Alcott stated.

"No wonder the case went unknown for months. You had the director under your belt as well." Baltos cried with a sad face.

Gojo laughed his lungs out, "Are you sure you don't have an incubus part in you?"

"In fact, I did test that afterward, and I'm 100% a pure human," Alcott replied with a passive face.

Gojo looked at Arad, "We'll try to have a low profile there, we aren't going there to cause trouble,"

Arad nodded, "Yeah, I do want to study some subjects,"

"Me too. I wonder if they have any interesting spells," Gojo smiled.

"Please don't be like this idiot," Baltos sighed.
