Chapter 1

Chapter 1:

Horace’s first day of high school became the most discriminated against in the entire school in less than 2 hours after the incarnation selection.

He thought he could finally turn his life upside down for the better, but, in a world that involves magic and relics, there would naturally be a hierarchy of who had the greatest talent and power.

Horace didn’t get any support from the elemental stars, despite his ambition and hatred being at its highest. He felt that the entire world was against him.

“Horace, the principal wants to see you in her office.”

The girl he met this morning who volunteered to show him around the school in a polite manner, was now treating him as if he was obligated to do anything she said.

He hated their guts. Everyone in this school was 2 faced.

“In the end people who have talent are all that matters in this world. . .”

Horace let out a deep breath before going to the principal's office, he wasn’t sure of what to think of the principal.

She was an elegant, charismatic woman who could command an army to their death and the army wouldn’t question her actions.

He almost fell for her at first glance, but he was reminded of the bullies in the orphanage and immediately composed himself.

“Horace what are you doing standing there, come in.”

The door opened on it’s own as he was planning to leave.

He couldn’t leave now, the principal of the school Victoria Yuwaku was standing behind him.

“My, my, where do you think you're going?”

(Shit)

Horace got goosebumps just listening to her.

“Come in my office, you don’t want what I’m about to say to you to come out do you?”

(Right, the reason why I agreed to come to this school in the first place was to find how I was born, my origin.)

“Nathan! Why’d you do that to him? What Skyler said to you was justified but-”

“Shut it Andre you think I care? That commoner dared to insult the co-founder of the Aqua House.”

“I know Nathan but there are still better ways to handle the situation besides kicking his stomach.”

“Tch, you’re just defending him because you believed what he said didn’t you.”

“No, of course not it’s just that I-”

“After all my mother is quote on quote a traitor to the Aqua House, the slut of the household. The bitch of the-”

“Nathan! Please I get it, I get it-”

“Do you really? Do you really think you can understand that my mom, someone I trusted my entire life suddenly became the traitor of our household, stole our assets and went to live in YOUR fathers-”

“Nathan like I said, before that was, that was just a rumor!”

“Rumor my foot.”

. . .

The two didn’t need to say a word, their relationship as friends broke off the moment their conversation ended.

Though the teacher and students heard the situation, they did not want to be like Andre.

After all In their eyes he was just prey that would be devoured by the predator.

(In the end I didn’t find anything about my origin.)

Horace was baited into going to her office.

She didn’t mention a single thing about how he was born.

It was more like a “bonding session” although he resisted her many attempts of doing so.

(Why would she call me in her office just to bond with me?)

(Could I be the main protagonist?)

“Hey you.”

(. . . No, I’m the pathetic side character who goes against the main protagonist)

The “protagonist” was right in front of Horace.

“Nathan what are you doing talking to a commoner like him? As the heir of the-”

No worries, Blake he was just agreeing on being my foot stool isn’t that right, Horace?
