Amon, The Legendary Overlord

In a discreet corner of the cafeteria, three young people observed Amon with a mix of respect and resentment. Eike Batista, with his meticulously combed back blonde hair and a posture exuding self-confidence, frowned. “This Amon… he seems so arrogant, don’t you think?”

Beside him, Derdau Tst, with a more relaxed appearance, brown hair in a modern cut, and shrewd eyes, looked towards Amon and grumbled, “He certainly thinks highly of himself, but who’s going to confront him?”

The third of the group, Mori Alexandre, tall with short black hair contrasting his fair skin, remained calm. “I think one of us should teach him a lesson.”

Eike looked at Derdau. “Derdau, you’re clever with words. Why don’t you go there and show him?”

Derdau retorted quickly, “Me? And why not you, Eike? You’ve always been good at taking the initiative.”

Eike, crossing his arms, returned the gaze to Derdau. “It’s easy to talk, but action is another thing. Besides, you know I prefer to maintain my image. Confronting Amon could be… risky.”

Derdau huffed, clearly dissatisfied. “And you think I’m not concerned about my image? No, definitely not me who’s going there.”

Mori, known for his thoughtfulness, cautiously proposed: “How about we consider Amelia for this task?”

Eike and Derdau looked at each other, considering the proposal. “It’s an idea,” Eike agreed, “but will she be willing to do it?”

“Well, hard to say.” Mori said.

Around, murmurs and glances indicated that other similar conversations were weaving the same plot of caution and curiosity.

Although they wanted to test Amon, they were still not willing to do so after hearing what Amon said; after all, who there wasn’t proud? After hearing what was said, none of them would want to make any action without reason.

However, there were those who began to orchestrate plans to make Amon confront them. Thus, no one could say they were insecure and undeserving of the title of geniuses, right?

Evidently, this was not a general consensus. There was a distinct group, content to simply observe from the sidelines, that now delved into a superiority even more marked by the decision not to instigate conflicts with the newcomer.

This reasoning evolved into a self-convincing that their stance was the correct one, establishing, by logical extension, that they themselves were geniuses of an even more refined breed than those eager to challenge the newcomer.

Meanwhile, Amon and Lara were walking side by side, talking.

“Amon, are you going to create an exploration group?” Lara asked with a certain interest in her voice.

“Yes, I intend to do that,” Amon agreed.

“That’s the right choice to make,” Lara said cheerfully. “By forming an exploration group with the ‘normal’ students, so to speak, you earn many semester credits that can be used if needed to pass a certain course. In any case, there are many advantages and few disadvantages.”

“Uh, I think so,” Amon said. “And you, do you have any group formed?”

“I thought you’d never ask,” she smiled even more. “I have five lovely freshmen who go on missions with me. They are very cute and determined, even when the mission requires a lot of effort, they are always doing their best.”

For at least five minutes, she talked about the five girls who were part of her group.

Honestly, Amon still couldn’t understand her reasons for approaching him. Although he had become good at reading people, and even at understanding emotions better, nothing is definitive, especially for someone of her caliber, who could easily camouflage her true emotions even with the simplest smile.

Well, actually, it didn’t matter much to him. As long as she had no ill intentions towards him, Amon was willing to continue interacting with her.

The moment she noticed the change in Amon’s gaze, Lara smiled and said, “Anyway, let’s talk about you. What are your teammates like?”

Without hiding anything, Amon spoke a bit about Barbara, Maisa, Julia, Ariel, and Mabel. He even revealed that among the five, three of them were his girlfriends.

“Wow, I should have known,” she laughed a bit, mischievously, with a smile that was both sly and charming. “You give off that vibe of someone who plays it cool, haha.”

“Playing it cool, huh…” Well, it wasn’t entirely wrong, but at the same time, it was far from the truth, since when he ‘played it cool’, there was nothing quiet about it… He returned to the main topic: “As you said, doing explorations with the team gives a lot of extracurricular points, so I’m thinking of doing that soon.”

“Good luck~” She hummed, happily. “I also can’t wait to go out again. It’s been two months since I last went exploring, I think it’s time to shake things up, if you know what I mean~”

“Mm,” Amon nodded. But whether he understood or not, was a mystery.

Not far from them, a group of students were gathered, talking discreetly, until they looked in their direction, and then a girl approached.

The girl who approached was a young woman of average height, with fair skin and delicate freckles adorning her cheeks and nose. Her blue eyes, reminiscent of the sky on a clear day, sparkled with curiosity and enthusiasm. Her long, curly blonde hair was tied in a high ponytail or braids. She had a small and almost imperceptible scar on her forehead.

She wore a stylish long dress in pastel color with discreet heart prints, comfortable flats adorned with a decorative heart, and a crossbody bag with a well-embroidered heart emblem, giving her a unique charm. In addition, she wore some accessories, like a necklace with a heart pendant and pearl earrings in the shape of a heart.

‘Huh?’ Amon murmured in his mind: ‘Those freckles and that scar… Can’t she get rid of them if she wants?’

In fact, she could, but not everyone wanted to be ‘perfect’. In reality, precisely because of this, she stood out among the masses of ‘perfection’, giving her a more striking appearance, to the point of being more desirable compared to other girls.

“Lara,” the girl said affectionately, with a hint of seduction in her voice. “You arrived at a good time~”

“Oh?” Lara raised an eyebrow, then smiled charmingly and joked: “What a pleasant surprise, does Princess Clara need me for something?! ~”

“Hehe, don’t tease.” As she approached her, Clara took Lara’s hands and shook them a few times with a smile, seeming very close to each other. She said: “We were just talking about you and trying to guess what your opinion was on something. Now that you’re here, it’s easier to ask directly… By the way, aren’t you going to introduce me to your friend?”

When the question was asked, Amon looked at her. Without waiting for Lara to introduce him, he said, “Hello, my name is Amon Tang. Nice to meet you.”

“Hehe, the pleasure is all mine,” she replied cheerfully. “I’m Clara Fernandes, you can call me Clara~”

“Mm,” Amon just nodded.
