Chapter 6

   If I was in my normal condition then after hearing those words I would most likely be celebrating with joy and have a big happy grin in my face but in my current condition I can’t do that.

Instead what was most likely happen to me right now is me passing out in the ground in which I didn’t want that to happen so I tried my best to be conscious and not as I previously said to pass out.

With this burden I didn’t have the pleasantries to celebrate right now and I could see that Dargon was waiting for me to follow him and I’m positive that he is not a man that likes to wait for long.

I had no choice but to stand and walk towards him even if I felt really sick while doing this, and as I did this Dargon proceeded to walk as well.

I had a hard time catching up to him but when I did I immediately decided that it was best for me to ask some questions about this school after all the more knowledge I have the better it is for me.

But before I could open my mouth Dargon turn around and glared at me in which at his action the only thing I did was to just look down as I was honestly terrified with the look he just gave me.

Dargon sternly asked me “How come I can’t see your status?” Hearing that question made my head spin because wasn’t it normal that you couldn’t see other people’s status.

“Unless… don’t tell me that Dargon has a skill to see other people’s status. If that is true then what am I supposed to do, should I just bluff my way through this? That is too risky because there are ways to tell if I’m lying to him or not so if he calls my bluff then I will be screwed, and of course they won’t let me off that easy after all being principal of magic academy means that they have a lot of power. Damn what the heck first I should confirm my suspicions maybe I’m overthinking it.”

I responded stammeringly “Uh…um…wh-what are you talking about?” Damn I should shoot myself right now why the heck do I have bad communication skills.

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

Dargon though didn’t seem to care and just bluntly told me “I have a skill that let’s me see others people’s status, are you now going to give me an answer.”

“This is honestly the worst possible outcome for me at this point I should just tell him the truth after all my hands and feet are tied behind my back. Looks like I just have to hope that my confession of being statless comes along well and that I can still go inside the academy.”

This is what I thought when I heard his response and I with a feeble voice said “Uh…well it’s because I’m a… statless person.”

I could feel myself shrinking under Dargon’s gaze as I finish my confession in response he did something that I didn’t expect at all.

Dargon just grinned akin to a feral wolf and then it quickly became a maniacal laughter in which I only stared at him in bewilderment as I couldn’t make out heads or tails if this was a good sign or a bad one.

When he finish laughing Dargon faced me with a composure unlike before and simply said “No wonder I couldn’t see your status and you don’t have to worry at all I won’t reveal this to anyone because I’m curious to see how you will fare here at my academy. Before I forget can you tell me what’s your name?”

After finishing his sentence he just reached out with his hand and left the arm just hanging there in the air.

For now it looks like for some reason the principal will still let me in the academy after all I don’t truly believe the principal would let me in just because of the reason he gave but I don’t know what he’ll use me for so it is pointless to think about it right now and I should probably know in the future.

As for my name I technically don’t have one since when we get the status it should tell your name but I don’t have a status so instead everyone decided that I just don’t have a name at all.

But my parents never believed in this so they instead decided to name me in which I was really grateful to them for giving me a name even if it wasn’t truly my name as I would never know what it was no matter what.

But i’m here right now and that is all that matters because even if I am the weakest among the world I’ll climb from the bottom with all my might without never stopping and I won’t ever stop until the day I am dead.

I’ll continue on for my parents and myself because this world believes that I a statless person would never reach the top but I decide my own fate and I say that it is possible so I will strive for the top and when I do then that will mean the whole world was wrong about me.

I proceeded to shake Dargon’s hand and with a uncharacteristically smirk on my face, I clearly said with confidence “My name is Lerato and I hope we have an eventful school year, principal.”
