Chapter 14 - First Day Reception



Chapter 14 – First Day Reception

Soon enough Robin and Caesar arrived at the institution, its high walls and imposing gate, sufficient to raise Robin's hopes and instill some awe in Caesar's heart.

Bowing down, the servant called, "I am by order of lady Mila Bradly, with a letter to sir Felix Bradley, the distinguished head of the institution."

Two guards at the tenth level came, after exchanging some questions they escorted the three to the office of the head of the institution. on the way, Robin and Caesar were busy looking around them to get a general idea of where they would spend the next ten years..

The institution was very spacious and well organized, Robin spotted areas with large villas with backyards, another area where there are smaller-sized buildings, there were also huge and heavily guarded buildings

After a few minutes, the five arrived at their destination, a medium-sized building with several high-leveled guards, after exchanging some information the two guards retreated and returned to the gate, while one of the guards serving in front of the president's office took the message from the servant's hand, "Wait here" and entered He left for a few moments, then called, "Come."

After the servant had finished his job he retreated in silence. when Robin and Caesar stepped inside, they found the chief guard coming towards the door to come out, behind him a man who looked like a middle-aged scholar sitting behind a desk smiling, waited until the guard got out and the three were alone Then said, "I'm curious, Who exactly are you to earn a nomination from Mila personally and even assigned such an allowance per month?"

"In response to the head of the institution, our names are Robin and Caesar Burton, lady Mila owes me and this is her way of repaying the favor, she's a really generous lady" Robin didn't try to hide anything.

since Mila knew him at first sight, why would he try to hide his identity? the Burton family has thousands peering its surname and even more of those who've seen him in the past and are still alive today, so if he doesn't completely change his appearance, it's impossible for him to evade being discovered… and there's no need for that anyway.

"Huh? Mila owes you?" Felix was surprised and looked at the mortal boy standing in front of him.. he is at the age of 12, but he had not reached the first level yet? This is scum among scum! No matter how he looked at him and the kid next to him he didn't find anything special. but he didn't push the matter further, whatever the reason is as long as Mila didn't say it herself, it wouldn't be proper to know him in other ways.

"It's okay then, I will assign you the numbers 207 and 208. You can receive student badges from the coordination office and house keys with the same numbers. You can join the lectures every day at ten in the morning, and….. with this paper, you can spend your allowances from the treasury at the beginning of each month in the form of coins or resources.. that's up to you~" he said while stamping a few papers with his personal seal and threw them at Robin, then signaled them to dismes, Robin bowed a little and Caesar followed, then they both left.

Handing over badges and keys to the houses went smoothly, and when they went to the treasury, Robin chose to exchange all 200 operations with energy stones.

Every now and then a group of students passes by and instantly become surprised by the view of the two mortals carrying huge bags of stones on their curved backs, then they laugh and continue on their way, this continued until the two of them reached their new homes.

Inside House 207 "heeh~ It's been a long day… but finally we can start training properly!" Robin said with a laugh as he went to chose a room, when suddenly the sound of knocking on the main door sounded.

Robin went and opened it to find a group of young men, their boss was smiling at first, but he found that Robin was just a mortal, his smile vanished "Go and call your master."

"I have no master, I am the owner of this house, can I help you with something?" Robin replied plainly

"owner of what?!"

"Hey kid, don't waste our time and go call your master!"

"That right! if he is too arrogant to come out then at least tell us who he is."

Robin waited until they all finished " Too bad, but I am really the owner here, what can I help you with?"

"You?! How can a mere mortal like you have the same rights as us? We have heard that there are two new students.. don't tell me the other one is also a mortal like you?" the young man was shocked when he heard Robin, this was a respected institution that only accepted the talented nobles!

"He's just like me, is that it? We are kind of busy right now, so…." Robin said emotionlessly as he gestured for them to leave.

"you… I don't know where you and the other scum came from, and I don't care either, But I'm Remus, son of Marcus Rufus, so behave with me! ..hey, I just remembered something, my house just happened to be cramped lately and I need another one to turn it into a nightclub for me and my noble friends here.. You wouldn't mind if I took house number 208 right?" Remus said it with a cruel smile on his face

"Actually, I do extremely mind."

"Are you saying you want to resort to violence?" Remus raised his fist

"No, I just mind. If you insist on taking the house I'll hand you the keys." Robin said without emotion, while Caesar was in the back looking at him with a strange look

"…Give me the keys." Remus did not believe him but tried anyway, no ordinary person enters the institution, although he is confident of his background, at least he expected some resistance and threats… In fact, the house request was just his way to know more about Robin's background.

"here you go." Robin threw the keys to him, then went inside and closed the door, leaving the group of young men in shock before they burst into laughter, and soon the sound of singing and laughter echoed from House 208.

Caesar looked at him, "You could have at least asked for some money in exchange…" The house was not important, house 207 could easily accommodate both of them. And of course, he knew that they could not defend the house yet, so Robin acted normally, and it suited his style, he won't enter uncertain battles.

Robin laughed, "No, we may not need the house now, but we will definitely need it later… If I take some coins for it or say I'm willing to give it, I won't have any face to call it back, let them have their fun for now…. I'll send you to beat them up later and take it back for me."
