"Curses?" I didn't hear about this, my mind was troubled
"You two why are you standing there? Folia, it's lunchtime go eat and then practice and I hope you are done with your homework" Miss Ilin stood behind us with Serlin,
"and for you Aaris let's go see your room."
"So, Aaris I hope we can meet again" With this, she left with a smile for her dorm,
"My-my you have already made a friend, well your admission is now done shall we go see your room?" she looked at me with a smile,
"Can I ask a question" I looked at her,
"Go ahead!"
" where will I stay?" when hearing this her expression changed and she looked somewhat troubled,
"Hmm, I see, well your concern is reasonable but we can't place you in the 2nd building I discussed about your condition with Sir. Serlin and I decided to examine you thoroughly as your condition is unique and I don't want you to take any psychological stress so please stay here for a while don't worry everything will be fine" while taking we reached to the room on the first floor,
Then Ilen pulled a key out of her apron and open the door,
The room was quite spacious a bed, an almirah, a desk with a lamp a bookshelf, and a window and the walls were painted blue and gray, it was really nice.
"So, for now, this will be your room and your belongings will be hereafter lunch, oh my how can I forget you must be hungry, go eat your lunch and Sir. Serlin, I think you should join us kids will be happy to see you" she looked at him with glitter
in her eyes
"I wish I could but I only took half-day leave and I have to report back as soon as possible and I want to talk to him before leaving" Serlin looked at me
"I see then I'll be in my office please meet me before you go" Ilin looked a little down, but as usual, a smile came to her face again,
"I will."
Then after patting my head,
"I will see you later!"
miss. Ilin left and closed the door,
And an eerie silence filled the room,
"So from now on this will be your new home, here you will study and learn also, the caretakers here are retired and assigned mages they will be around you now and then,
So make sure to be on your best behavior and don't make trouble for anybody also I'll try to visit time to time,
And at last, if you ever give up on your vengeance and want to move on in your life just come to my house any time here is a spare key for you, remember you are still young you can do whatever you want till you have time so don't let yourself fall in this dark abyss" His voice had a distressed tone.
"Sir. Serlin, it is not for my vengeance but to make them pay for the sins they have committed until now, I don't blame you for anything so don't worry I will try my best and work hard I am still young and I hope I can change things for better, I can't give up yet"
He took a sigh and faced towards the door,
"As you wish, I am not in a place to force my ideas on you, you are free to choose your path yet still don't take any decision that becomes the biggest regret of your life, now take care and work hard, I'll pray for you"
And then he shut the door like it was his feelings of sympathy and pity towards me,
I lied down on my bed and then I heard a knock on the door,
"Dear Aaris?"
I opened a door and saw a lady with a black and white dress with an apron,
"How are you, I am Julia one of the caretakers is these your belongings?" She smiled at me, she was really pretty with her braided green hair, she had the void-crate in her hand,
"Yes, let me take them-" I tried to take the crate from but she moved her hands away,
"No! You eat lunch and I will set up your room until you return that's my specialty you see," she seemed really enthusiastic,
"But let me help-"
"No!, go eat lunch or Evan will get sad,"
"Who is Evan? "
"You'll see him in the dinner hall, but if you get late, he will be really sad,"
"Alright if you say so,"
"Nice, now go!"
I don't want anybody to frown because so I went and also I was really starving too, I went there but the entire hall was empty and it looked like I was already late so I thought to go back and help Julia but then suddenly somebody held my shoulder,
"Who are you? And Where do you think you are going?"
A tall aged man with a white beard and mustache glared through me, and his hoarse voice made chill ran through my spine,
"I am Aaris Ralkier and I am new here and I am going back to my room"
"So you are the new kid, have you eaten lunch I think not because there is food left in my kitchen enough for a kid like you and it got cold!" He yelled at me trembling I said,
"I am really sorry please forgive me!"
And my stomach growled, and my face turned red
"You should be punctual about your eating habits now go sit there at the table and wait I'll warm up the food"
I went to the empty table and in few moments he came back with a plate of warm food, some rice, bread, soup, and vegetables.
It looked delicious to my hungry self, and it was delicious the moment I took a bite I uttered,
"Delicious!"
"Huh? Well, you are new one day you will also get bored of this!"
He was standing in the corner smoking,
"I don't think I can get used to this"
"Whatever just don't waste food, eat everything"
"Ae bill"
"Don't talk with your mouth full!" He yelled again,
After I finished eating I prayed, and picked up my plate,
"Where are you going?"
"Umm. Where to wash them?"
"Huh? is ain't your job just leave them in that sink and get out of here" he yelled again,
"Yes!" I started marching out of the room "excuse me are you Mr.Evan?"
"What if I am?"
"Thank you for the food" and I ran out there,
I went going back to my room and laid on the bed,
"Aaris!"
"Aaris!"
Miss Ilin was standing in front of me,
"Who told you to sleep now?"
"What??"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Curses?" I didn't hear about this, my mind was troubled
