The Yarindall pact was one of the few pacts signed by every Kingdom and Empire. The Yarindall Pact was made in Yarindall and the purpouse of it was to make neutral zones all over the world. The neutral zones usually hold schools or religious spots or monuments. The Yarindall Pact has been in place since Haldarinna 251 and has existed for over three thousand years. If one kingdom breaks the pact all other kingdoms declare war on it. The Sceptre's and the Knights of the Continent agreed to have such a pact and allow taking over the kingdom if the kingdom did break the pact. Breaking the pact means trying to take over the neutral zone or doing something hostile in the neutral zone.

I am currently still questioning myself what classes I shall go to... Hmm...
Mithneel: "Politics should be a given... Advanced Magic Control? Yeah... That sounds good... The third one huh? Hmm... Martial Arts?"
I check the Martial Arts section of the class register i've been given.
Mithneel: "Sword fighting... I don't use swords... I use a scythe. Hmm? A scythe fighting style? They even have such a thing?"
I sign msyelf up for Politcs, AMC (Advanced Magic Control) and SCFS (Scythe Fighting Style). I go downstairs and see that Fyra and Ren have finished too. I walk up to them.
Mithneel: "So, what classes did you go to?"
Fyra: "Politcs, Gardening and Simple Fire Magic."
Ren: "Advanced Sword Fighting, Advanced Earth Magic and..."
She blushes a little before continuing.
Ren: "Gardening..."
Mithneel: "I took politics, advanced magic control and scythe fighting style."
Fyra: "So we are going to meet in Politics..."
Ren: "Hmm... So you do use a scythe only?"
Mithneel: "Yeah, I do. By the way girls... Do you have some free time?"
Fyra: "Yeah I do!"
Ren: "Upcourse."
Mithneel: "Artimael prepared something for us."
Fyra: "Let's go then!"
I notice that the other three families have already left. I go upstairs to change into my school uniform what I spotted on my bed. It is all white. White shirt with a white trench coat and white leather pants all the way down to my shoes what are pure white too. There are some weird blue lines forming crosses on my shoulders, waist and legs. I go downstairs and see the girls changed into the same outfit but with a skirt instead of pants and instead of a trench coat they just have a vest. I also notice instead of blue lines they have red.
Fyra: "Don't stare at me so much..."
I notice Fyra blushing a lot. I walk up to her and pet her on the head. I look at her and notice she also has white stockings to her knees. I don't continue staring at her anymore because I see she is starting to blush a little too much.
Mithneel: "Let's go then."
I open the front door and walk outside with Fyra and Ren following me and holding my hands.
Mithneel: "Now that I think about it... Where is the library even?"
I notice a maid running up to us.
Mithneel: "Ah, here is our guide."
The maid runs up to us and stumbles. I grab her hand and pull her up before she can fall to the ground.
Maid: "Ah! Sorry! I am too careless..."
Mithneel: "No problem."
She stands up correctly and bows.
Maid: "Hello Mithneel Evergreen. I am the maid sent to escort you around the academy until you don't need me anymore. My name is Lyuin Vorn."
Mithneel: "Nice to meet you Lyuin. I want to go to the library."
Maid: "Immediatly, my lord!"
Mithneel: "Please do not call me your lord, just call me Minh. I am no aristocrat. I am a commoner. And you don't need to be so polite towards me. Act like you would act when nobody is around."
Lyuin: "I understand, Minh! Phew... I thought I would have to keep up with that for a long time... And please follow me then."
She starts walking and we follow her. We walk for fifteen minutes before we reach a building what has the words 'Library' written on it.
Mithneel: "Come on in with us Lyuin. I doubt Arti has anything against you coming with us into the library."
Lyuin: "Ok."
I walk inside and Artimael jumps down from the fourth floor immediatly.
Artimael: "Minh! You came! Hello Lyuin! Well, Minh. Let's go right now!"
Mithneel: "You know about Lyuin?"
He starts walking and I follow him with Fyra and Ren right behind me.
Artimael: "She helps me organize the library. My assistant."
Mithneel: "Ah, then I understand."
We walk to the other side of the library to a locked door. Artimael opens the door with a key and goes down, we follow him. Lyuin stays behind to take care of the library. We walk for a while until we reach a huge room with a lot of weird things. Some kind of bottles with some liquid in them and a lot of books and a weird... Metal... Thing.
Artimael: "Ah! I never told you! I forgot!!! I tottaly forgot! Well... Mithneel... I am from another world. From a couple of other worlds. I travel from world to world... This is all technology I have found or created myself. Your things are over here!"
He runs up to the metal thing what seems like a round gate. There are three sets of armor and a few weapons and some other things.
Artimael: "The left one is for Fyra, the middle one for Ren and the right one for you, Minh. The weapons are for Fyra and Ren because you can summon the Scythe when you want to right?"
I nod and look at my armor. It is weird... It seems like it's made out of metal but not at the same time. How can you describe this material...
Artimael: "Ah, the armor isn't made out of a single material. It's a mix of things."
I look at my armor more closely. It is actually light armor. (For reference https://animethief.files.wordpress.com/2015/06/vlcsnap-2015-06-06-22h33m55s214.jpg?w=736&h=414. From Danmachi.) It seems really flexible and seems to protect only the vital spots. I look at Ren's armor and it is full-suit armor. Made out of a really strong-looking but seems light material. I look at Fyra's and the armor is... A robe. Like a clerics... But it is slightly different. It only seems to cover her body to just above her knees so it doesn't block movement. I look towards Arti.
Mithneel: "Well done armor."
Artimael: "I took into account this world's culture and such and also modified it with things I know. These should be strong enough to take on an entire army and not even get a single scratch on them."
Mithneel: "Hmm? That strong huh. Nicely done Arti."
Artimael: "Thanks. Well... Here."
He throws me a weird stone what seems to fit perfectly into a hole in my armor.
Artimael: "The armor's full potential is activated once you put that activation stone into the hole. Right now it is basically asleep."
He gives stones to Fyra and Ren too.
Artimael: "That is all I wanted to show you. Minh, I can teach you about technology and about runes. Want to learn?"
Mithneel: "Yeah, upcourse."
Artimael: "Then make some free room every sunday."
Mithneel: "Like what am I going to do on sunday... Well I should get to classes. I'll leave the armor here for now. I'll pick it up later."
Artimael: "Sure and have fun!"
I start heading upstairs and see Lyuin already waiting for us.
Lyuin: "Took you long enough."
Mithneel: "Sorry Lyuin. Can you show us to our classes?"
Lyuin: "All the classes are in a single building. You should be able to find them easily. I'll lead you to the building though."
Lyuin starts walking and we follow her. We walk for about half an hour until we reach a really really big building.
Lyuin: "Here are the classes. And here are the schedules."
She gives us some schedules for the classes. Politics starts really soon.
Mithneel: "Thanks, I better get to Politics class."
I grab Fyra's hand and run off towards the location shown on the schedule. We reach the spot just in time for the class to start. We are introduced first though. We wait behind the door for a while.
Teacher: "We also have two new students today. Fyra, please enter."
Fyra goes in first. I look through the window on the door.
Fyra: "Hello, I am Fyra Firestone. It is a pleasure to meet you all."
She bows and I hear some guys whistling and see some of them checking out her body. Well... They won't be having so much fun when I enter. Fyra walks to an empty spot with another seat nearby. The classroom is like usual, steps going up and 3 benches on each step. There are seven steps.
Teacher: "Mithneel, please enter..."
I hear some fright in her voice. I enter the classroom and walk up to the spot Fyra was at.
Mithneel: "I am Mithneel Evergreen. It is a pleasure to meet you all."
I don't bow but stare at the men who looked at Fyra.
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
Mithneel: "And also, the group who is looking at Fyra... Do not approach her if she does not want it. I will twist your arms backwards and maybe crush your skulls while I am at it."
Teacher: "Mithneel! Don't give such threaths!"
She tries to hit the back of my head but the moment I stare at her she stops and immediatly goes into a panic. She tries to cower and go under the table.
Mithneel: "Teacher, don't be so afraid of me. I won't do anything until they do something."
I pull her up and walk to the bench Fyra is sitting at.
Teacher: "Ok... Now to start with the class..."
She is still afraid of me. Is my stare that bad? The class teaches me about things I already know. Like the Yarindall pact and such. When it ends I head to my 2nd class only to see Fyra being followed by the boys who looked at her with lecherous eyes. I eliminate all traces of my presence and follow them like a shadow. The moment Fyra turns to her class they ambush her and drag her to a dark corner in the storage room near her 2nd class.
Boy: "Hello, Fyra Firestone... I heard nobody cares about you so we will have some fun with you..."
One of them tries to tear off her uniform but I appear from the shadows and stare at them. The boy who tried to tear off her uniform tried to hit me but crushes his hand instead when it comes into contact with my stronger than iron skin. Another one pulls out a dagger from his boot and tries to stab me but the blade of the dagger just bends when it comes into contact with my skin.
Mithneel: "Hello boys who were foolish enough to ignore my warning. You just tried to... Do something bad didn't you? Do not think that there aren't monsters living near you. There always is a monster living near you, looking at you."
I grab two of them by the neck and crush their windpipes. I continue to grab them by the neck and crushing their windpipes so they cannot speak of me ever again.. All except one of them.. I also crush their right arms as a sign of... Niceness...
Mithneel: "I won't kill you yet... Even though I am very tempted to murder every aristocrat here except Ren and Fyra... And the one whose windpipe I didn't crush. Spread my warning. Never approach Ren and Fyra with thoughts filled of lust. Because one complaint from them... Can mean your death. You can approach them with thoughts filled of friendship with them, but when you think of lust or a relationship of intimacy like a girlfriend and boyfriend... I shall find you and kill you. Now run."
The boys run out at full speed. I go up to Fyra and pull her up.
Fyra: "What... Just happened... One moment I was going into my class and the next my uniform was about to be torn off..."
Mithneel: "Don't think of them ever again. If anybody tries to do that to you again... Scream out at the top of your lungs. Scream my name. I shall come... And I shall defend you."
I go out and let her go to her class and go to my own class. Ren will probably do fine, she was an A-Class warrior after all. I check the schedule again... I have enough time to go and check. I have a lot of time actually...
I decide to 'teleport' to her class. When I use my speed it seems like the world goes into slow motion and when I use every bit of my agility it is like time has stopped until I stop 'running'. When I enter I see her getting along with a group of girls. I approach her.
Mithneel: "Heya Ren. You are doing fine apparently."
Ren: "Yeah. Why did you come here, Minh?"
Mithneel: "Ah, some guys tried to take advantage of the weak-looking Fyra. I made sure they never think of that again. Also... This is the sword fighting class right?"
Ren: "Yeah it is. We will go outside next lesson the teacher said. And some guys tried to do what to Fyra? Did they do that..."
Mithneel: "Yeah, they tried to rape her. I broke their arms instead of twisting them though. Well, I better get going then. Have fun Ren."
Ren: "Upcourse, darling~."
Mithneel: "Darling?"
Ren: "I'm using your name as a sort of defence against the aristocratic boys. You are my future husband right?"
Mithneel: "True..."
Even though I can't do anything about it...
Mithneel: "If you have any problems just call me. Just scream my name at the top of your lungs and I'll be here ina few seconds."
Ren: "Ok, darling~."
I run off... Ok that darling thing is really annoying... But if it protects her then fine. I go back to my 2nd class and introduce myself. The advanced magic control class teaches me nothing new too. Ulric taught me all of this already... I start heading to my next class without using my speed and just walking at human regualr speed. When I am half-way there I hear somebody screaming for help a few classes from here. I 'teleport' inside and see a girl just a few centimeters bigger than Fyra in every way chained to a wall with a few boys near her. She is still wearing the school uniform. I sigh and walk up to them.
Mithneel: "Seriously... The aristocratic boys are so damn rotten... I have to deal with boys trying to rape girls... I'll have to talk to Uldar about this. This isn't no neutral zone if this happens."
I grab the boys from behind and throw them all out. I tear off the chains and grab the girl and bring her out aswell in a princess carry.
Mithneel: "Now boys... Listen to me. You try this again... I'll rip your heads off ok? I've been to two classes and had to deal with this two times... I do not want to kill anybody yet but I will if neccesary. My name is not important right now. Just remember my words and everything will be fine. Do not approach girls with only lust in mind near me. It will always end up very badly... Sometimes with death."
I walk away still holding the girl in a princess carry. I put her down in my third class.
Mithneel: "So, who are you? I just saved you so I have the right to know."
Girl: "I am Meril. Meril Moinar. Thank you for saving me... I just got to this academy and the boys are always looking at me with lust... Some of them just tried to take advantage of me but you saved me... Thank you... But... Are you like the others?"
Mithneel: "No. I am different probably. I defend girls from idiot aristocrats like them. And if neccesary... I'll kill the aristocrats. I am Mithneel Evergreen by the way. Now, you should get to your class."
Meril: "This is my class..."
Mithneel: "Oh, good to know. I am new here too. Well... You use scythes too?"
Meril: "I wanted to learn using a scythe..."
I look around and see a few people here already. We are in an arena-like spot what is completely flat. It is also really big. The teacher walks in and orders the class to begin. Me and Meril introduce ourselves and then the teachers brings out scythes. He comes up to me with one.
Mithneel: "Ah, I don't need one. I'll just summon my own."
I summon my black scythe out and he jumps back in shock. Ah wait... This scythe isn't natural right? I've been using this so much I forgot that this is basically the same as a legendary sword or axe... But way stronger probably.
Mithneel: "Don't worry about the scythe. I won't kill anybody with it right now. I just want to learn how to use it more skillfully in my next fight."
He nods and continues to hand out scythes while looking at me constantly. Everybody tries to ignore my scythe but their eyes keep gravitating towards my scythe. The teacher walks up to the front of the row of people we have and starts showing us some moves I already know how to use. I tell him that I know this and he tells me to practice a certain move. He then proceeds to show me a really cool-looking and effective but hard move. I try to do it a few times but fail. I practice until the class ends but I still fail the entire time. The move is basically swinging the blade in a wide area but not at the same time... I could see the blade slowly moving upwards and then suddenly moving downwards but the cut area was way longer than the scythe ever could create. I know how to do it but my body can't mimic the action.
I go back to my house thanks to Lyuin showing me the location of it. Fyra and Ren are already there and drinking some tea with the other families. I sit down and Fyra brings me a cup of tea too.
Fyra: "Where were you so long?"
Mithneel: "Didn't the classes end a few minutes ago?"
Fyra: "They ended an hour or two ago..."
Mithneel: "Ah, my track of time got lost then..."
Fyra: "Thanks for saving me before. I also heard you helped some girl named Meril."
Mithneel: "Yeah... Sorry aristocrats but you guys are usually so rotten... I mean I had to save both Fyra and Meril from getting raped... I've also seen cruelty from aristocrats...."
And right now I am just really tempted to cut your heads off to eliminate all my problems. Oh yeah I have to go to Uldar... I'll do that later...
Remember me! Go to Uldar's place and make a complaint about all the actions the boys are doing... Damn idiot aritocratic boys thinking they can rape girls and get away with it... Or they can chain girls and get away with it... I wish I could've murdered them but that would've caushed problems...
